House (astrology)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Most horoscopic traditions of astrology systems
divide the horoscope into a number (usually twelve) of
houses whose positions depend on time and location rather
than on date. In Hindu astrological tradition these are known
as Bhāvas. The houses of the horoscope represent
different spheres of life, described in terms of physical
surroundings as well as personal life experiences. In delineation
the placement of a planet or zodiac sign in a house will determine to a
large degree the area of life in which it acts, and the goals and
activities on which its drive or impulse will be focused.
Description
The houses are divisions of the ecliptic plane (the path
of the sun across the sky) as seen from the earth at the time and
place of the horoscope in question. They are numbered
counter-clockwise from the position of the eastern horizon (the
cusp of the first house) at the time of the subject being charted.
Houses one through six are below the horizon, while houses seven
through twelve are above the horizon.
There are a range of approaches to calculating these divisions
and different opinions among astrologers over which house system is
most accurate. To calculate the houses, it is necessary to know the
exact time, date, and location. In natal astrology, some astrologers will use a
birth time set for noon or sunrise if the actual time of birth is
unknown. An accurate interpretation of such a chart, however,
cannot be expected.
The Twelve Houses
The Babylonians may have been the first to set out
the twelve houses used today by the majority of
astrologers.[1]
The houses were numbered from the east downward under the horizon,
and represented areas of life on the following pattern with their
areas of influence.
These are their traditional Latin names of the twelve houses,
with their translations and other associated influences. This
represents the basic outline of the houses as they are still
understood today.
Systems of House Division
There are many systems of house division. In most the
ecliptic is divided into houses and the
ascendant (eastern horizon) marks the cusp, or
beginning, of the first house, and the descendant (western horizon)
marks the cusp of the seventh house. Many systems of house division
called quadrant house systems also use the midheaven (medium coeli) as the cusp of
the tenth house and the nadir (imum coeli) as the cusp of the
fourth house. Some house systems divide the celestial equator and
the prime vertical instead of the
ecliptic.
The earliest systems (whole sign and equal house) linked the
houses to the signs of the zodiac. The equal house system defines
houses as 30-degree sectors of the ecliptic, so that the cusp of
each house falls on the same degree of each zodiac sign. One
outcome of this is that a varying angle occurs between the
ascendant and midheaven in higher latitudes. Attempts to reconcile
the concept of "quadrants" with the varying angle between midheaven
and ascendant lead to more complicated house systems. These became
more relevant as astrology spread from subtropical regions to
higher latitudes.
Goals for a house system include ease of computation; agreement
with the "quadrant" concept (ascendant on the first house cusp,
nadir on the fourth, descendant on the seventh, and midheaven on
the tenth); defined and meaningful behaviour in the polar regions;
acceptable handling of heavenly bodies of high latitude (a distinct
problem from high-latitude locations on the Earth's surface); and
symbolic value. It is impossible for any system to satisfy all the
criteria completely, so each one represents a different compromise.
The extremely popular Placidus and Koch systems, in particular, can
generate undefined results in the polar circles. Research and
debate on the merits of different house systems is ongoing.
Early Forms of House Division
The earliest forms of house division were those that link with,
or run parallel to, the signs of the zodiac along the ecliptic.
Proponents of the equal house system claim that it is more accurate
and less distorting in higher latitudes (especially above 60
degrees) than the Placidean and other quadrant house
systems.[2]
Whole sign
In the whole sign house system, sometimes referred to as the
'Sign-House system', the houses are 30° each. The ascendant
designates the rising sign, and the first house begins at zero
degrees of the zodiac sign in which the ascendant falls,
regardless of how early or late in that sign the ascendant is. The
next sign after the ascending sign then becomes the 2nd house, the
sign after that the 3rd house, and so on. In other words, each
house is wholly filled by one sign. This was the main system used
in the Hellenistic tradition of astrology, and is also used in
Indian astrology, as well as in some early
traditions of
Medieval astrology. It is thought to be the oldest
system of house division.[3]
The Whole Sign system may have been developed in the Hellenistic
tradition of astrology sometime around the 1st or 2nd century BCE,
and from there it may have passed to the Indian and early Medieval traditions of
astrology; though the line of thought which states that it was
transmitted to India from Western locales is hotly contested. At
some point in the Medieval period, probably around the 10th
century, whole sign houses fell into disuse in the western
tradition, and by the 20th century the system was completely
unknown in the western astrological community, although was
continually used in India all the way into the present time.
Beginning in the 1980s and 1990s the system was rediscovered and
reintroduced into western astrology. The distinction between equal
houses and whole sign houses lies in the fact that in whole sign
houses the cusp of the 1st house is the beginning of the sign that
contains the ascendant, while in equal houses the degree of the
ascendant is itself the cusp of the 1st house.
Equal House
In the equal house system the ecliptic is also divided into twelve divisions
of 30 degrees, although the houses are measured out in 30 degree
increments starting from the degree of the ascendant. It begins
with the ascendant, which acts as the 'cusp' or starting point of
the 1st house, then the second house begins exactly 30 degrees
later in zodiacal order, then the third house begins exactly 30
degrees later in zodiacal order from the 2nd house, and so on.
The MC in Whole Sign &
Equal House Systems
In the whole sign and equal house systems the Medium Coeli
(Midheaven), the highest point in the chart,
does not act as the cusp or starting point of the 10th house.
Instead the MC moves around the top half of the chart, and can land
anywhere in the 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, depending on the
latitude. The MC retains its commonly agreed significations, but
it doesn't act as the starting point of the 10th house, therefore
in Equal house it adds extra definition and meaning to MC and the
cusps involved, but always MC is same in interpretations as other
house systems.
This is also the more common criticism of the whole sign and
equal house method as it concerns the location of the Medium Coeli
(Midheaven), the highest point in the chart. In the equal house
system, the ascendant/descendant and midheaven/nadir axes can vary
from being perpendicular to each other (from approx. +-5 deg at
most at equator to approx. +-15 degrees at Alexandria to +-90
degrees at polar circle). As a result, equal houses counted from
the ascendant cannot in general place the midheaven on the tenth
house cusp, where many feel it would be symbolically desirable.
Since this point is associated with ambition, career, and public
image, the argument is that the Midheaven, therefore, must be the
cusp of the similar tenth house. It has also been linked by
extension with Capricorn (the tenth sign of the zodiac). Because
the Whole Sign and Equal House system do take the Midheaven into
account, but relies on the location of the Ascendant, it can be
found anywhere between the 8th and 11th houses.[4]
Quadrant House Systems
Quadrant house systems divide the houses so that they agree with
the "quadrant" concept (ascendant on the first house cusp, nadir on
the fourth, descendant on the seventh, and midheaven on the
tenth).
Porphyry
Each quadrant of the ecliptic is divided into three equal parts
between the four angles. This is the oldest system of
quadrant style house division. Although it is attributed to
Porphyry of Tyros, this system was first
described by the 2nd century astrologer Vettius Valens, in the 3rd
book of his astrological compendium known as The
Anthology.
Alchabitius
The predecessor system to the Placidus, which largely replaced
the Porphyry. The difference with Placidus is that the time that it
takes the ascendant to reach the meridian is divided equally into
three parts. The Alchabitius house system was very popular in
Europe before the introduction of the Regiomontanus system.
Alchabitius (or Alcabitius ), was a 10th century
Arabian astrologer (died 967).
Regiomontanus
The celestial equator is divided into twelve, and these
divisions are projected on to the ecliptic along great circles that
take in the north and south points on the horizon. Named after the
German astronomer and astrologer Johann Müller of Königsberg. The Regiomontanus
system was later largely replaced by the Placidus system.
Meridian
Similar to Regiomontanus, except that the east point is taken as
the ascendant.
Placidus
This is the most commonly used house system in modern Western astrology. The paths drawn for each
degree of the ecliptic to move from the nadir to the horizon, and
from the horizon to the midheaven, are trisected to determine the
cusps of houses 2, 3, 11, and 12. The cusps of houses 8, 9, 5 and 6
are opposite these. The Placidus system is sometimes not defined
beyond polar circles (latitudes greater than 66°N or 66°S), because
certain degrees are circumpolar (never touch the horizon),
and planets falling in them cannot be assigned to houses without
extending the system. This is the result of his weaknesses of the
Placidean system according to its critics, which often cite the
exceptional house proportions in the higher latitudes.[5]
Named for 17th century astrologer Placidus de Titis, it is thought the Placidus
system was first mentioned about 13th century in Arab literature,
but the first confirmed publication was in 1602 by Giovanni Antonii
Magini (1555–1617) in his book "Tabulae Primi Mobilis, quas
Directionem Vulgo Dicunt". The first documented usage is from
Czech, 1627.[6]
Later it was popularized by Catholic Church as an argument for
Ptolemy's geocentric theory of the Solar System, in the campaign
against the heliocentric theory. Placidus, a professor of
mathematics, was named as its author to give it credibility to his
contemporaries. Placidus remains the most popular system among
English-speaking astrologers
Campanus
The prime vertical (the great circle taking in the
zenith and east point on the horizon) is divided into twelve, and
these divisions are projected on to the ecliptic along great
circles that take in the north and south points on the horizon. It
is named after Johannes Campanus.
Koch
A rather more complicated version of the Placidus system, built
on equal increments of Right Ascension for each quadrant. The Koch
system was developed by the German astrologer Walter Koch (1895–1970) and is defined only
for latitudes between 66°N and 66°S. This system is popular among
research astrologers in the U.S. and among German speakers, but in
Central Europe lost some popularity to the Krusiński house
system.
Topocentric
This is a recent system, invented in Argentina, that its
creators claim has been determined empirically, i.e. by observing
events in people's lives and assessing the geometry of a house
system that would fit. The house cusps are always within a degree
of those given in the Placidus system. The geometry is somewhat
complicated and the reader is referred to this site for an
explanation and this one too. The
topocentric system can also be described as an approximation
algorithm for the Placidus system.
Topocentric houses are also called Polich-Page, after the names
of the house system creators, Wendel Polich and A. Page Nelson.
Neo-Porphyry
The Neo-Porphyry system of house division is similar to Porphyry
houses except that instead of each quadrant being divided into
three equal sized houses, the middle house in each quadrant is
compressed or expanded based on the whether the quadrant covers
less than or greater than 90 degrees. In other words, houses are
smooth around the zodiac with the difference in quadrant sizes
being spread in a continuous sinusoidal manner from expanded to
compressed houses. Neo-Porphyry houses were invented and first
published by Walter Pullen in his astrology program Astrolog
in 1994.
Krusinski
A recently published (1995) house system, based on a great
circle passing through the ascendant and zenith. This circle is
divided into 12 equal parts (1st cusp is ascendent, 10th cusp is
zenith), then the resulting points are projected to the ecliptic
through meridian circles.
The house tables for this system were published in 1995 in
Poland. This house system is also known under the name
Amphora in the Czech Republic, after it was proposed there
by Milan Píša after the study of Manilius's "Astronomica" under
this name ("Konstelace č. 22" in: "AMPHORA - nový systém
astrologických domů" (1997) and in the booklet "Amphora - algoritmy
nového systému domů" (1998)).
