Orbits of real semisimple Lie groups on real loci of complex symmetric spaces

Let $G$ be a complex semisimple algebraic group and $X$ be a complex symmetric homogeneous $G$-variety. Assume that both $G$, $X$ as well as the $G$-action on $X$ are defined over real numbers. Then $G(\mathbb{R})$ acts on $X(\mathbb{R})$ with finitely many orbits. We describe these orbits in combinatorial terms using Galois cohomology, thus providing a patch to a result of A.Borel and L.Ji.
