house lords

Hi:) what houses do Uranus Neptune Pluto rule for Aries ascendant?
That's dependent on several factors :smile:
every astrologer uses their own personal methodology
and it is very normal for astrologers to strongly disagree on methodology

FOR EXAMPLE
at astro.com's Extended Chart Selection Page fourteen of the more popular house systems currently in use
are available options

Placidus is simply the default

to view how that works in practice
create your natal chart using Whole Sign Houses option
then compare
with the same natal chart using the Placidus option
and notice which signs are on which house for each option


WHOLE SIGN HOUSE ASCENDANT SIGN becomes the whole first house
and the other houses follow.
The ASCENDANT POINT ITSELF can then fall anywhere in the first house
and
MIDHEAVEN POINT anywhere in the upper half of the chart
There are at least twenty or thirty different house systems
or means of dividing the so-called "birthchart" into twelve segments of life activity.
In astrology, houses, mansions, or domains
represent general areas of life activity
and are the grounding areas or arenas of expression for planets.
Originally, the words "houses" and "signs" were interchangeable.
A planet in the SIGN of Aries
was also a planet in the HOUSE of Aries
so that in effect houses as we know them today did not exist....'

Artificial divisions now known as houses were attempts by early Greeks and Hindus to measure strength "points" in the horoscope
which during 7th and 8th centuries AD were construed
or confused
as means of dividing the birth chart.
The ascendant and midheaven degrees and their opposites were definite power points
or areas of intense focus
but not necessarily the beginnings of a house or quadrant.

The Whole Sign House system was used by the ancient Greeks
and the Hindus (who still use it today).
It is the oldest and simplest house system in existence
and immediately eliminates the awful mess astrologers have made

on the issue over the last 1300 years or so

I don't understand your question. Do you have a chart to post?

Basically some astrologers do not use the trans-Saturnian planets as house lords, some do not use the traditional rulerships for Scorpio, Aquarius, and Pisces. In a natal chart, I'd look at both.

Basically, aren't you looking at the houses with Scorpio (Pluto,) Pisces (Neptune,) or Aquarius (Uranus) on the cusps?

Where you find these signs on house cusps will in part depend upon what house system you use.
