Thanks Neptunia. This gives me great confidence in this community. Please suggest me where i need to start with.

You could always start with posting your chart.. :)
It's fun to have other people read it and see what they may find, and what you may find. You can do this under the 'Read my chart' forum. If your studying Vedic Astrology there is a forum for that as well!

Also, if you have questions about something specific about yourself or something astrological, you could start there as well :)

Hi Neptunia. I am not restricted to Vedic Astrology.
I have given my date of birth , time, longitude and latitude. i believe this is enough to check in different astrology. I mean in Natal Astrology.

So please go explore my chart.

Towards training i could find the below for beginners. It appears this is right place for me to start learning basics.

An important early lesson to learn is that astrologers all have their own personal opinions
and do not always agree

one area of disagreement is regarding which house system to use

It is important to be aware that there is more than one house system :smile:


on astro.com Placidus is the default system

BUT

there are also fourteen alternative house systems to choose from
that are available on the extended chart selection page

of astro.com


These facts are easily checked
by creating several natal charts with identical birth details
same time, same place
and then simply choosing another House System such as Whole Sign Houses
and observing how the house location of any natal planet
is entirely on the HOUSE SYSTEM chosen


QUOTE


'...In no other area of astrology is there so much mess and confusion than in the area of the so-called "houses".
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
or
meant the same thing.
A planet in Aries
was also a planet in the house of Aries,
so that in effect. there were no real houses as we know them today
....' :smile:



'….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, for example,
were definite power points or areas of intense focus,
but not necessarily the beginnings of a house or quadrant. ....'

'...If any house system should be used at all, it should be the Whole Sign House system,
where the ascendant sign becomes the whole first house and the others follow.
Ascendant point can then fall anywhere in the first house
and the midheaven point anywhere in the upper half of the chart.
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....'
