Guest guest Posted September 10, 2005 Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 Dear Tarun, You should use what your teachers taught you to use and what you prefer. Suppose you choose "each rasi is a house" option. Then the other setting does not matter. But suppose you choose "equal houses (30 deg each)" option for Houses. And suppose your ascendant is at 25 deg in Li. If you choose "ascendant is the middle of the first house" in that case, first house is taken to be from 10 deg in Li to 10 deg in Sc (+/- 15 deg from ascendant). The second house is taken to be from 10 deg in Sc to 10 deg in Sg. And so on. If you choose "ascendant is the start of the first house" instead, first house is taken to be from 25 deg in Li to 25 deg in Sc (start from ascendant and go 30 deg). The second house is taken to be from 25 deg in Sc to 25 deg in Sg. And so on. Most people use the former. Many use Sripathi (Porphyry) houses instead of equal houses. Krishnamoorthy and his followers use the latter method and use Placidus houses instead of equal houses. You should use the house system (equal, Placidus, Porphyry, Koch etc) that you believe in and also the start/middle setting that you believe in. There is no agreement among scholars. Though Krishnamoorthy's method of taking ascendant as the beginning of the first house is scoffed by traditionalists, I must admit that there is some logic in it.

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2005 Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 Dear Narasimha The last line of your message is what made me to write me this message. Can you share how you see the logic behind krishnamurti method of taking Asc as this is the method used in western astrology. Thanks and best regards Amer Abbas vedic astrology, "Narasimha P.V.R.
