Arabic Parts in Astrology: Pars Fortunae (Part of Fortune) and Beyond

Arabic Parts (also called Lots) are sensitive points in the natal chart, calculated through mathematical formulas that combine the positions of planets, the Sun, the Moon, and the Ascendant. They were widely used in Hellenistic, Medieval, and Arabic astrology to reveal hidden themes of destiny, fortune, and personal development.

Among them, the most famous is the Part of Fortune (Pars Fortunae), but there are many others such as the Part of Spirit, Part of Love, Part of Marriage, Part of Death, and Part of Success.
