not if the OP is a beginnerIs this question a joke?
LIN
The significations of THE PLANET are most important
A PLANET acts
THEN
A HOUSE shows the area of life
in which the planet acts
as well as
how strongly the planet can act
i.e.
Most students are aware that houses are defined as
angular = 1st, 4th, 7th & 10th
succeedent = 2nd, 5th, 8th, & 11th
and
cadent = 3rd, 6th, 9th & 12th
as shown in the diagram below.
The houses are not all equal in strength and power.
If a planet is located in an angular house
it is much more forceful in its effects
than it would be in a cadent house.
On page 48 of Christian Astrology Lilly writes:
The angles are most powerful
the succeedents are next in virtue
the cadents poor and of little efficacy:
the succeedent houses follow the angles
the cadents come next [after] the succeedents.
In force and virtue they stand so in order:
1 10 7 4 11 5 9 3 2 8 6 12
AND THEN
the quality of the planet's expression
is influenced by the SIGN location of the PLANET
you are entitled to your opinionSeveral things were wrong in that chart for the houses.
you are entitled to your opinion
many would disagree
state your disagreementsWould you care to explain why you believe each one is correct?
ApotelesmaticaWe can assign "power of influence" to aspects, signs, and houses only after we understand something about the differences between them.
Aspects show the dynamic interplay between two focalized points, or planets, of psychic energy.
The planets themselves are where the rubber meets the road because they are ACTION.
Signs are fields of energy, not points as the planets are.
Whatever lies within them is immersed in their particular deep and inherent character.
Recall, the "essential dignities" are based exclusively on signs, and
they reveal "what is of the essence" of the native.
Houses are rooted in the earth.
They show where the sky comes down to earth.
Houses represent Passing Circumstances; they're the stage
where life is acted out.
Thus the houses and the dignities based on them are "Accidental", rather than
essential as are the signs.
I hesitate in calling one thing more important than another.
"For want of a nail the shoe was lost...." Better, I think, is
to see each as a vital component of the organic whole ,the native.
And as always, it depends on the individual chart.
My own personal chart features the following Preponderances:
in signs, Fixed and Air with a negative preponderance in Water;
in houses, the Watery trigon, Succedent;
in aspects, the Square is preponderant.
A preponderance is not to be ignored.
They are determinant in personality and course of life.
Each of these conditions provides significant information
about the native and a different perspective for the astrologer.
Apotelesmatica
Midheaven, post-ascension of Midheaven, pre-ascension of Hour-Marker are masculine
Hour-Marker, post-ascension of Hour-Marker, pre-ascension of Anti-Midheaven are feminine
Anti-Midheaven, post-ascension of Anti-Midheaven, pre-ascension of Setting are masculine
Setting, post-ascension of Setting, pre-ascension of Midheaven are feminine
9. Types
1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 are masculine and diurnal
2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 are feminine and nocturnal
13. Disjunct Places
Places without aspect are disjunct.
14. Houses
5 is house of Sun, summery, masculine
4 is house of Moon, summery, feminine
10 and 11 are houses of Phainon, wintry, disjunct
9 and 12 are houses of Phaethon, windy, trigon
1 and 8 are houses of Pyroeis, stormy, tetragon
2 and 7 are houses of Phosphoros, temperate, hexagon
3 and 6 are houses of Stilbon, changeable, adjacent
28. Nativity
The Midheaven, Hour-Marker, post-ascension of Midheaven, post-ascension of Hour-Marker are powerful. Setting, Anti-Midheaven, post-ascension of Setting, post-ascension of Anti-Midheaven are moderated. Pre-ascension of Midheaven, pre-ascension of Anti-Midheaven, pre-ascension of Setting, pre-ascension of Hour-Marker are powerless. This arrangement of power in this order is obvious from their position relative to the angles and the horizon, and from their aspects with the two superior angles, the Midheaven and the Hour-Marker.
