Thanks. Lisa, since the late 60s I've tested various house systems, and if you are talking about the simple effect of planets in houses, I've found the equal house system, with the cusp (ascendant degree) in the CENTER, the most reliable. After years of research Lois Rodden decided on the western equal house system over the quadrant systems (Placidus, Campanus, Koch, etc.) However, if you are trying to isolate planets in the psychological sense, the M.C. point may well be more important, but not as a house cusp (in my experience.) It doesn't matter what zodiac you are talking about: Fagan-Allen, Lahiri or Tropical. The results would be the same. Of course with AstroDatabase, we now have the raw data to test any theory of houses we want to test. Therese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 23, 2003 Report Share Posted September 23, 2003 Lisa As a Lahiri person, I want to also cast a vote for the equal house system with the cusp (most sensitive and powerful point) as the centre of the house. In using the equal houses, I do not preclude the possibility that unequal cusps may also be sensitive points. The difficulty lies in determining which of the house systems is correct and I haven't found a reliable answer to that question. Until some decent research sheds some light on that question, I will content myself with the equal house system. So if you don't use it, I would encourage you to give it try.
