Modern Mansion System

今宿制

The precession-corrected system of 28 Lunar Mansions, astronomically verifiable against modern star catalogues.

The Modern Mansion System (今宿制) refers to the 28 Lunar Mansions as calculated with full precession correction — meaning the boundaries of each mansion are adjusted to reflect the actual current positions of their constituent stars as measured by modern astronomy.

In this system, the position of each lunar mansion can be independently verified against modern star catalogues and astronomical software. This verifiability is a defining characteristic of Eastern Classical Astrology's approach to the stellar layer of the dual coordinate system.

The Modern Mansion System is the system used in Goxingtang's practice.
