Whole Sign House System

In Whole Sign Houses, the entire sign containing the Ascendant becomes the 1st house, the next sign becomes the 2nd house, and so on. No house is split across signs, and no sign is intercepted. This is the original house system used in both Hellenistic and Vedic astrology. Its simplicity makes calculations straightforward and avoids the distortions of quadrant-based systems at extreme latitudes. TriAstra uses Whole Sign for all Vedic calculations while using Placidus for Western charts.

In Vedic analysis, your houses align perfectly with signs — one sign, one house. This creates clean, unambiguous house placements.
