Source basis

A lunar-zodiac framework that divides the zodiac into twenty-eight mansion segments, with the current row focused on the reviewed Arabic equal-segment lane.

Future rows should separate boundary tables, star anchors, and mansion-specific judgments.

Lunar mansions are a lunar-zodiac framework built around twenty-eight segments and named mansion positions.

Lunar mansions are adjacent to nakshatras, electional workflows, and lunar timing surfaces.

Modern sources help distinguish this twenty-eight-mansion family from the Indian twenty-seven-nakshatra family.

The current public row describes the reviewed Arabic equal-segment lane and does not claim a complete talismanic or electional mansion doctrine.

The local notes distinguish Arabic twenty-eight-mansion material from Indian twenty-seven-nakshatra material and from mansion-specific talismanic or electional doctrine.

The local notes use al-Biruni for the Arabic sequence and star-anchor witness, and Choices and Inceptions for equal tropical spans and electional use.

The reviewed lane uses a twenty-eight-part equal-segment table suitable for longitude lookup and stable public labels.

The row does not assert that the equal tropical span is the only historical mansion boundary policy.

The row does not publish mansion-specific talismanic meanings, observed rising logic, or a fully reconciled primary-text boundary table.

This public row keeps the calculation lane separate from mansion-specific interpretation.

This row supports public pages for longitude lookup, mansion labels, and the existence of a reviewed Arabic twenty-eight-mansion lane.

Those require separate source rows.
