Derivitive House System
To quote a comment by Michael Munkasey relative to a book Planets in Houses written by an old friend and mentor Rober Pelletier ". . . houses are designed to give us a proportional representation of the space surrounding a birth or other event . . .". And, "The Derivitive House System shows how each house in turn is related to each of the other houses in the chart."
So, what we have is a simple idea which can be conveyed to others -- except that it requires a comfort level and intuitive grasp of astrological relationships to actually state an example in some detail. I would reccommend finding the above mentioned book in a book store or library -- then use it to study your own chart for added insights.
I think of derivitive houses as being somewhat like rulerships for planets in signs. It is a way of adding layers of understanding to a chart and the relationships between its components. Not all charts and inquiries require this level of detail. If you understand it you should use it. If its confusing just wait awhile and come back to it next year. Dave.
