al-Fargh al-Mu'akhkhar
Destroying springs and wells (IV.9); increase of trade, hindrance to building, danger to sailors, and mischief against whom you please (I.4).
One of the twenty-eight Arabic manazil al-qamar, each 360/28 = 12°51'25.7" of the tropical zodiac from 0° Aries. The Picatrix/Agrippa scheme is tropical; sidereal practice shifts the whole series by the ayanamsa. The angel column is the least secure: the 1651 Agrippa list is a Latin overlay that only partly matches the Picatrix mansion-lords, and the Arabic tradition gives a different angel set. The mansion-lord is the Picatrix IV.9 name where the text gives one; the talisman for mansion 22 is lacunose in the standard English Picatrix and is left null rather than invented.
