Source basis
A visibility doctrine describing planetary states around solar proximity, appearance, disappearance, and morning or evening orientation.
It can be shown alongside planetary condition, but should not be used as a complete observational model.
Phasis describes how a planet's visibility and solar relationship are categorized around appearances, disappearances, and orientation to the Sun.
Phasis relates to planetary condition, solar combustion and related solar proximity states, and event-observation pages.
The current public row is descriptive and does not claim to calculate actual observational visibility under local atmospheric conditions.
The current public wording remains state-based and conservative.
The local notes connect phasis to traditional visibility language and modern traditional explanation, with Abu Ma'shar material supporting specific synodic bands for superior planets.
The phasis family can describe broad solar condition bands, first and last visibility events, and morning or evening phase language.
The row does not publish atmospheric heliacal visibility, local horizon conditions, or a complete observational astronomy model.
The row keeps event-search and state-description language distinct.
The seed row names this range without promoting gated observational claims into public copy.
This row intentionally uses descriptive public wording and avoids private event-search or source-extraction details.
This row supports a public description of the current descriptive phasis state layer built from solar proximity and orientation.
