Meridian Primary Directions Truth Card

Historical Name

  • Meridian
  • sometimes described as directions according to the equator

Mathematical Basis

  • equatorial primary-direction family
  • the current admitted branch measures perfection by equatorial right-ascension difference
  • on the current surface:
    • direct = (RA_significator - RA_promissor) mod 360
    • converse = (RA_promissor - RA_significator) mod 360

Interpretive Meaning

  • perfection through an explicitly equatorial doctrine
  • cleaner and more schematic than the semi-arc and under-the-pole families

Current Moira Admission

  • admitted as a narrow explicit branch
  • runtime-selectable on:
    • in_mundo
    • in_zodiaco
  • active relation policy on the plain positional branches:
    • conjunction
    • opposition
  • active relation policy on explicit aspect-point zodiacal branches:
    • conjunction
    • opposition
    • zodiacal_aspect
  • the zodiacal branch uses the already declared zodiacal projection doctrine and then perfects by equatorial RA difference

Boundary

  • this does not claim that every historical Meridian-family variation has been exhausted
  • the current branch is the narrow explicit equatorial family only

Epistemic Status

  • verified narrow admission
