The Room:
An Azure Dragon Constellation
Key Star: Delta Sco (Delta Scorpii)
The Room has Four stars. Ancient Chinese Astrologers called it Fan, representing a dragon's belly. When the moon passed through this constellation, they saw Portents. An example would be:
To build today is lucky. The happy proprietor of any building or room constructed today will be able to increase holdings, build extensions, and acquire gardens and surrounding lands.**
Early Arabian Astrologers called the Room, Iklil al Jabhah. Their Portent is:
The Crown of the Forehead. Improves misfortune, makes love durable, strengthens buildings and helps seamen. With Moon here, build, sow, plant, navigate but do not marry.*
In ancient India, Astrologers called the Room Anuradha, and their Portent would be:
A soft asterism belonging to the Shudra caste and favorable for friendship, married love, {82} purchase and making of clothes and ornaments, music and auspicious deeds when containing the Moon. Those born on the lunar day will be valiant, influential and keep vehicles. With Moon here at birth native will be wealthy, of wandering habits, unable to bear hunger and resident abroad. Rules fields overgrown with flowers, and the stomach.*
