Astronomy

Zero runtime dependencies. Lunar math is a Meeus Ch.47 truncation ported from a guide cross-checked against AstroSeek (Β±1–2Β°, adequate for 12.857Β° mansions). Planets use JPL approximate Keplerian elements, verified against a published ephemeris (≀0.5Β°). Vedic positions use the same Lahiri ayanamsa as the author's Ibn Arabi app. The Chinese lodge uses the traditional unequal lodge widths, not equal slices β€” 28 unequal slots totalling 364 units, rescaled onto the 360Β° circle and anchored at Horn/Spica on the Moon's tropical longitude, so allow Β±1 lodge near a boundary. Hijri output is the tabular Islamic calendar (Β±1–2 days vs moon-sighting).

Note: a native menu-bar build without Raycast is also available under Moon Mansions for Mac.
