How this figure is read

The two skies · Toggle Sāyana and Nirayana above and watch what moves. Aspects, the void Moon and combustion are differences of longitude and hold in either sky — but the rising sign, and with it the rulers of the 1st and the quesited house, can change, and then the significators themselves are different planets. So the two frames are two judgments, not one; Arka casts both and says whether they converge or diverge below rather than promising in advance that they agree.

How the figure is cast, how the houses signify, and how the Moon carries the answer.

For study, not counsel. A teaching model on a real ephemeris. As the tradition itself cautions — incessant recourse to horary is not to be recommended: it is a discipline for maturing the judgment, best held lightly. A serious question, seriously asked, is the only kind worth casting.
