Houses in Vedic Astrology
In Vedic Astrology Houses
and signs are used interchangeably. Whatever sign is on the
Ascendant becomes the 1st house. The sign is the house, the
house is the sign. The Ascendant then is a point which lies
in that 1st house, but the cusp of the 1st house is zero degrees
of the sign which the Ascendant occupies, in the Rasi or natal
chart. The Porphyry house system (see "House Systems")
is commonly used in Vedic astrology
