One pattern I've noticed in the scripture is that as soon as humans were kicked out of the garden, the seven day work week started for God again.
This may explain why Jesus said in response to sabbath proponents in His day "my father works, so I work also"
The mirror of the first day of creation is the first age of humanity before the flood where they were still like God, but so evil that God repented of creating at all. So there's darkness and light, and that's all there really is there. Noah being the last light of hope for that generation.
The mirror of the second day is the separation of the waters, (people are spoken of as waters in the prophets) or the forming of the nations. Israel was the last of the nations formed during that era being the "waters" representing the higher order. Much like when God separated the identical waters with the atmosphere or firmament, so did God separate Israel and the other nations with His breath.
The mirror of the third day is the separation of the waters to bring about dry land, this happens in the story of Moses, Elijah, and at Jesus's baptism.
The mirror of the fourth day is described in daniel as those who make others "wise" and become as the stars forever and ever - according to proverbs, one who wins souls is wise.
The fifth day isn't really described in scripture but may be related to the sea turning to blood in revelation.
The sixth day is related to the beast as it was in genesis, and then the appearance of the man, as it was in genesis. The beasts of sin are the nations, and the man of sin is the antichrist - a topic of intense discussion around here for sure.
The seventh day is the millennium, the thousand year day described in Revelation.
The rebellion after the seventh day also happened in Genesis.
The judgment after the rebellion also happened in Genesis.
The entering into the new world after the judgment also happened in Genesis.
That's basically it. The elements line up, but between the third and sixth day - not much data in the scriptures - probably intentional so observers of said pattern do not lean on their own understanding.
The gospel application of this observation is that as soon as this world was messed up, God began to create a new one for His children, because He loves us.
