Source basis

A primary chart body returned by the ephemeris layer and used throughout chart calculation.

Moon is represented as a chart body for position, motion, aspect, and timing calculations.

This page supports object identity and chart-placement copy for Moon, including links from calculation and doctrine pages that use the body as an input.

This object row does not publish Moon-specific interpretation, dignity judgment, condition scoring, or predictive doctrine. Use narrower doctrine and rule pages for those claims.
