Thanks again for this booster rocket on the houses. I am relieved to know I can stop thinking about those house rulerships (Mars rules the first, etc.), which never made sense to me, and focus more on the rulers of the house cusps. So helpful. Also helpful was the advice to keep it real – look at mundane examples – not get so abstract, or always so psychological, as a way of learning more and of using the tools in a more practical way. It was very good to hear more about the distinction between the whole sign house system and the Placidus/Koch systems, and when each is helpful. And it will be fun to look at some extreme northern latitude charts in different house systems. That explanation and example was great. So was the reminder that the chart is a schematic diagram, not a literal map. Great analogy of Broadway and the NYC subway map. So many good images and ideas. Thank you!
Great way to spend a rainy afternoon.
