+ | There is no great {{Wiki|distinction}} made in [[Tibetan]] texts between the [[information]] given for [[electional]] and horary [[astrology]]. Most of the [[information]] given is in terms of | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[electional]] [[astrology]] – for example, is a particular {{Wiki|lunar}} day favorable for a certain [[activity]], or not? The same basic [[symbolism]] would also be applied to horary [[astrology]], when a [[person]] asks a question of an [[astrologer]]. The [[nature]] of the question will usually be related to some [[activity]] as defined in the categories for [[electional]] [[astrology]]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | There are two ways in which the [[information]] on [[electional]] [[astrology]] is given in [[Tibetan]] texts. First is a listing of, say, the {{Wiki|lunar}} days or [[rising]] [[signs]], with the [[activities]] described for which each is [[favourable]] or unfavourable. The [[information]] given is usually very brief. For example, in the listings given below, some [[foods]] are associatd with the [[lunar mansions]]. The original [[Tibetan]] text these are taken from (baiḍūrya [[dkar po]], by [[sde srid]] [[sangs rgyas]] [[rgya mtsho]]) gives no more [[information]] than this, and does not say how this [[information]] is to be used. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Clearly, the [[intention]] is [[to build]] up by means of what is [[essentially]] a set of keywords, a picture of the [[meaning]] of each factor: each {{Wiki|lunar mansion}}, {{Wiki|lunar}} day, and so forth. This is very similar to the [[manner]] in which {{Wiki|western}} [[astrology]] is often [[taught]], albeit with much less explanation! | ||
+ | |||
+ | The second way in which this [[information]] is presented is by means of a listing of various [[activities]], together with the [[auspicious]] and {{Wiki|inauspicious}} factors for each: [[good and bad]] [[lunar mansions]], [[good and bad]] [[rising]] [[signs]], and so forth. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | The [[Tibetans]] inherited most of their [[electional]] [[astrology]] from [[India]], and these lists go into surprisingly {{Wiki|pedantic}} detail. It is understandable that such [[activities]] as [[marriage]] and moving house would be included, but many are surprised to find needlework and the cutting of [[hair]] and fingernails in such lists. A [[selection]] of these [[activities]] is given below, after some of the most important {{Wiki|characteristics}} of the [[lunar mansions]], perhaps the most important of all the factors that are considered. More [[information]] will be added to this page at a later date. | ||

However, both classical and {{Wiki|modern}} texts on [[Indian]] systems give almost [[identical]] material. See, for example, the "Brihat [[Samhita]]" of [[Varaha]] [[Mihira]], and the {{Wiki|modern}} work "The [[Nakshatras]]" by Dennis M. Harness. | |

Introduction
There is no great distinction made in Tibetan texts between the information given for electional and horary astrology. Most of the information given is in terms of
electional astrology – for example, is a particular lunar day favorable for a certain activity, or not? The same basic symbolism would also be applied to horary astrology, when a person asks a question of an astrologer. The nature of the question will usually be related to some activity as defined in the categories for electional astrology.
There are two ways in which the information on electional astrology is given in Tibetan texts. First is a listing of, say, the lunar days or rising signs, with the activities described for which each is favourable or unfavourable. The information given is usually very brief. For example, in the listings given below, some foods are associatd with the lunar mansions. The original Tibetan text these are taken from (baiḍūrya dkar po, by sde srid sangs rgyas rgya mtsho) gives no more information than this, and does not say how this information is to be used.
Clearly, the intention is to build up by means of what is essentially a set of keywords, a picture of the meaning of each factor: each lunar mansion, lunar day, and so forth. This is very similar to the manner in which western astrology is often taught, albeit with much less explanation!
The second way in which this information is presented is by means of a listing of various activities, together with the auspicious and inauspicious factors for each: good and bad lunar mansions, good and bad rising signs, and so forth.
The Tibetans inherited most of their electional astrology from India, and these lists go into surprisingly pedantic detail. It is understandable that such activities as marriage and moving house would be included, but many are surprised to find needlework and the cutting of hair and fingernails in such lists. A selection of these activities is given below, after some of the most important characteristics of the lunar mansions, perhaps the most important of all the factors that are considered. More information will be added to this page at a later date.
The Lunar Mansions and activities
The following information on the lunar mansions is mainly based on two Tibetan sources, the "White Beryl" (baiḍūrya dkar po, mentioned above, and the "Treasury of Jewels" (rin po che'i gter mdzod) by Pawo Tsuklag Threngwa. However, both classical and modern texts on Indian systems give almost identical material. See, for example, the "Brihat Samhita" of Varaha Mihira, and the modern work "The Nakshatras" by Dennis M. Harness.
