Native speakers of English, could you help me with English paragraph?

I am translating a paragraph and since I'm not a native speaker of English I find some phrases difficult to understand. Does the word 'auspicious' mean in this paragraph?


These works by Tadao Ando evoke the traditional Japanese concept of oku, a procedure whereby a series of auspicious sites may be conceptually linked over great distances, just as the traditional tokonoma or domestic shrine could be associated with the peak of a sacred mountain via a series of shrines and torii.
