Porphyry Primary Directions Truth Card

Historical Name

• Porphyry

Mathematical Basis

• quadrant/trisection primary-direction family
• on the current admitted conjunction-style surface, Moira admits Porphyry through the same narrow projected/equatorial runtime law currently used for the Morinus-style branch
• on the current surface:
  • direct = (RA_significator - RA_promissor) mod 360
  • converse = (RA_promissor - RA_significator) mod 360

Interpretive Meaning

• perfection through a Porphyrian doctrinal frame
• the fuller distinctness of the family is expected to emerge in wider projection and aspect doctrine, not on the current narrow conjunction branch

Current Moira Admission

• retained as a doctrine label
• no longer admitted as an active runtime-selectable method
• the previous runtime branch has been demoted because no explicit, source-safe Porphyrian directional law has been verified

Boundary

• this does not claim that the full Porphyrian family has been implemented
• the surviving evidence is strong enough to preserve the label, but not strong enough to justify an active runtime implementation

Epistemic Status

• software_conventional
• doctrine_loss_reconstruction

Mathematical Sovereignty

• shared_narrow
• currently shares its last known provisional runtime law with:
  • meridian
  • morinus

Demotion Reason

• modern software clearly preserves Porphyry as a primary-directions label
• Moira does not currently possess a source-safe Porphyrian governing law
• because the label survives more clearly than the derivation, the honest status is doctrinal retention without active runtime admission
