Arabic Parts (Lots)

Calculated chart points made by adding the distance between two bodies to a third, such as the Part of Fortune.

PlannedCalculatedLiving tradition

A description for now. An interactive tool for this method is planned but not built yet.

Background

The Arabic parts or lots are points constructed from three chart factors such as planets or angles. Tajika astrology calls them sahams.

How it works

The arc between two points (for example the Sun and Moon) is added to a third (for example the Ascendant), and the result is read like a planet.
