Here is the simplified formula for the Joys: For those planets inside earth’s orbit the house (place) of joy duplicates the zodiacal relationship between their Sect Lord’s fixed sign and their own sign of exaltation. While for those bodies outside the earth’s orbit it is the relationship between th...

Cheers Paul, that's what I thought happened, just wanted to be sure though there wasn't some conflicting traditional use of Cardinal based on turning points that I wasn't aware of... because I know how careful you are to use correct terminology. I was discussing it with Ed Falis on Astrodienst. Nice... Forum: Nativities & General Astrology Topic: House Systems --which do I use and why?

[quote="Paul" First some preliminaries. We describe the houses according to three categories - they can be angular, succedent or cardinal. Angular houses (1,4,7,10) have a sense of dynamism, action and being charged with power to act. They have been described as being pivots or even like s...

Taurus on Asc, Cancer (Moon domicile) on 3rd Mo... Forum: Traditional (& Ancient) Techniques Topic: Some thoughts about the Joys Replies: 7 Views: 8643 Thu Aug 25, 2011 12:33 am Jump to post

I was surprised to discover that when the four fixed signs rose you could look at the triplicity ruler of sect and their sign of domicile showed their house of Joy, (with the Sun it is the sign of exaltation as Sun's domicile is the fixed sign). This seems beyond coincidence. Then when I saw the pat... Forum: Traditional (& Ancient) Techniques Topic: Some thoughts about the Joys Replies: 7 Views: 8643 Tue Aug 02, 2011 11:15 pm Jump to post
How did the ancients really associate the planets to houses by Joy? Was it simply due to daily rotation thus an hourly thing? Or was it reflecting an underlying seasonal influence? Perhaps we'll never know. But we can see if there are any seasonal influences that correspond, not just to the Ascendan...

Some thoughts about the Joys This is my first post on this forum and so I hope you will bear with me as I build on old ideas to put forward some new thoughts that link the Joys of the planets to houses. Most of us, traditional or modern, would accept the cycle of a day is symbolic of the cycle of a year Sunrise like spring, Noo...
