Al Sarfah

Al Sarfah, meaning 'the Changer of the Weather,' corresponds to Denebola (beta Leonis), the tail of the Lion. True to its name, this mansion governs transitions and transformations, particularly in agricultural and natural cycles. It brings prosperity to harvests and plantations while hindering seamen.

The mansion's transformative quality extends beyond literal weather to encompass all forms of change and transition in human affairs.

The tenth manzil marks the tail of Leo and the transition toward Virgo's domain of service and craft. Al Sarfah's weather-changing nature reflects this liminal position: it stands at the boundary between the royal, self-expressive energy of Leo and the practical, analytical energy of Virgo. This makes it a powerful point for initiating changes and turning points.

The Moon in Al Sarfah opens a wide range of favorable activities: travel, navigation, sowing, ploughing, marriage, and sending messengers. This is one of the most permissive mansions for electional purposes, suggesting that the energy of transition and change creates openings for many types of constructive action.

With Moon here, travel, navigate, sow, plough, marry and send messengers.
