Binary lens geometry projected onto the sky in the complex form. The binary lens is at z1 and z2. The source star is at w, and the direction of the relative proper motion is shown as ﹩{\hat{{\boldsymbol{\mu }}}}_{\mathrm{rel},\odot }﹩.The angle α is defined as the angle between north and the binary axis. α increments eastward of north. ﹩{\phi }_{{\pi }_{E}}﹩ is the angle east of north of ﹩{\hat{\mu }}_{\mathrm{rel}}﹩ and also ﹩{\hat{\pi }}_{E}﹩.
