Primary Directions Target Family Matrix

Purpose

This document turns the remaining primary-direction target families into an explicit Moira policy surface.

It answers three questions:

  1. which target families are already mathematically real in Moira
  2. which families are deferred because their governing law is still method-specific or incomplete
  3. which family should be next, if target work resumes

Current Audit Rule

A target family is not considered live merely because the repo contains a related mathematical substrate elsewhere.

For primary directions, a target family is only counted as live when it has:

  1. explicit doctrine
  2. explicit runtime realization
  3. explicit policy or preset path
  4. explicit validation

Family Matrix

Family Current Directional Role Governing Law Status Moira Status Notes
planets base promissors and significators explicit implemented_validated sovereign baseline family
nodes base promissors and significators explicit implemented_validated limited to admitted node surface
angles base promissors and significators explicit implemented_validated central across current branches
house cusps significators and explicit projected targets explicit implemented_validated admitted as projected cusp entries
zodiacal aspect-points derived promissors explicit, relation-gated implemented_validated active on admitted zodiacal aspect branches
parallels / contra-parallels relation-first branch explicit but method-bound implemented_validated_narrow_family closed for now on admitted Ptolemaic branch
rapt parallels relation-first branch explicit but method-bound implemented_validated_narrow_family closed for now on admitted Placidian branches
fixed stars sovereign catalog-backed targets explicit, conjunction-only implemented_validated_narrow_family closed for now on angle-and-planet conjunctions
antiscia / contra-antiscia reflected targets explicit on the current narrow Ptolemaic zodiacal branch implemented_validated_narrow_family closed for now on the current recoverable Ptolemaic branch; wider non-Ptolemaic doctrine still deferred
mundane aspects relation/target hybrid method-specific and still incomplete deferred should not be widened generically
midpoints derived sensitive points midpoint math exists, but PD law not yet admitted deferred do not confuse midpoint substrate with primary-direction doctrine
generic folklore stars loose named targets no sovereign doctrine rejected violates provenance law

Current Mathematical Core

The currently closed or stable target families are:

  • planets
  • nodes
  • angles
  • house cusps
  • zodiacal aspect-points
  • parallels / contra-parallels on the admitted narrow branches
  • rapt parallels on the admitted narrow branches
  • fixed stars on the admitted narrow conjunction branches
  • antiscia / contra-antiscia on the admitted narrow Ptolemaic branch

This means the target layer is no longer the weakest part of the subsystem.

Strongest Remaining Candidate

The strongest remaining target-family candidate after the current core is now:

  • a wider non-Ptolemaic reflected family only if a new governing law appears

The first antiscia branch is no longer merely a candidate. It is admitted narrowly on the Ptolemaic zodiacal surface.

Still Deferred

These remain deferred:

  • mundane aspects
  • midpoints
  • any generic widening of non-sovereign sensitive points

Reason:

  • the substrate may exist
  • the primary-direction law does not yet

Present Declaration

Moira's primary-direction target families are now in a much cleaner state.

The next target family, if target work resumes, should be:

  • a wider non-Ptolemaic reflected family only if a new governing law appears

and not a broader or more interpretive family by default.
