Lagna is at 26 deg in Sg.Those who take entire signs as houses will get 0-30 deg in Sg as the 1st house, 0-30 deg in Cp as the 2nd house etc.Those who take +/- 15 deg from reference as the first house will get 11 deg in Sg to 11 deg in Cp as the 1st house, 11 deg in Cp to 11 deg in Aq as the 2nd house etc.What I am proposing (based on a critical reading of Parasara, i.e. this is not really my original "idea") is that 26 deg in Sg to 26 deg in Cp is the 1st house, 26 deg in Cp to 26 deg in Aq is the 2nd house etc.I am told that Krishnamoorthy used the same method, though he did not use equal 30 deg houses and used unequal Placidus houses. However, he apparently took lagna as the *beginning* of the first house and not as the *middle* of the first house.BTW, I hope this reply answers other questions by Ranjan, Marg, Rishi etc on other lists too.Best regards,NarasimhaDo a Short Homam Yourself: http://www.VedicAstrologer.org/homamDo Pitri Tarpanas Yourself: http://www.VedicAstrologer.org/tarpanaSpirituality: Free Jyotish lessons (MP3): http://vedicastro.home.comcast.netFree Jyotish software (Windows): http://www.VedicAstrologer.orgSri Jagannath Centre (SJC) website: http://www.SriJagannath.org--- In sohamsa , "shortcut" shortcutfromdos@ wrote:> Hi PVR ji,> > I think i am missing something here you have mentioned that> > The following is the definition of houses from a reference:> 1st house: 0-30 deg from the reference> 2nd house: 30-60 deg from the reference> 3rd house: 60-90 deg from the reference> 4th house: 90-120 deg from the reference> 5th house: 120-150 deg from the reference> 6th house: 150-180 deg from the reference> 7th house: 180-210 deg from the reference> 8th house: 210-240 deg from the reference> 9th house: 240-270 deg from the reference> 10th house: 270-300 deg from the reference> 11th house: 300-330 deg from the reference> 12th house: 330-360 deg from the reference> > How is it different from the way we currently use ? currently since> rashi is of 30 deg house are ending at every 30 deg.> > Is it that - if lagna is 1 deg aries then next house starts at 1 deg> Taurus, and same with every planet.
