Fall...and that means for me: Harry Potter-time! All the movies will be seen the next weeks. And I was wondering, what house would I be put in by the Sorting Hat?
There are a dozen tests on the internet wich sort you into a house but everytime something else comes out. So I wondered how the Sorting Hat would know where to put a student. He clearly feels the energy of the person underneath it so I guess this must be the influence of all the planets and signs in your chart.

So I came up with a system. First of all I had to sort every sign into a house. Depending on the values each house has, I came up with the following categories:

Gryffindor (values courage, bravery, daring, and chivalry):

Aries (fire, courageous, daring)
Leo (house animal, brave)
Saggitarius (fire, always on some quest)

Slytherin (values cunning, ambition, leardership, resourcefulness):

Gemini(resourceful and opportunistic)
Scorpio(needs no explanation )
Capricorn (ambition and leadership)

Ravenclaw (values intelligence, creativity, learning, and wit):

Virgo(clever and know-it all)
Aquarius(values truth, is intelligent)
Pisces(wise, dreamy)

Hufflepuff(hard work, patience, justice, and loyalty, friendship and kindness):

Taurus(hard work, patience)
Cancer(loyal, kindness)
Libra(friendship, justice)

Some signs were very difficult to assign, and you may or may not agree with me, but this is what I eventually came up with.

Ok, having sorted that out, I looked at my dominant signs. Not all websites give dominant signs, only planets. Astrodienst gives free reports and if you scroll down you see your dominants. Go to the extended chart selection, choose Pullen/Astrolog and chart selection Simple Chart Delineation by Walter Pullen. Ok, scroll down to your dominants and you see first the planets and second the signs. It looks like this (this is mine):

Sign: Power Rank Percent
Aries: 30.4 ( 8) / 5.0%
Taurus: 14.6 (11) / 2.4%
Gemini: 30.1 ( 9) / 5.0%
Cancer: 58.5 ( 5) / 9.6%
Leo: 93.1 ( 2) / 15.4%
Virgo: 52.1 ( 6) / 8.6%
Libra: 38.0 ( 7) / 6.3%
Scorpio: 107.1 ( 1) / 17.7%
Sagittarius: 80.0 ( 3) / 13.2%
Capricorn: 9.9 (12) / 1.6%
Aquarius: 66.7 ( 4) / 11.0%
Pisces: 25.4 (10) / 4.2%

Next step is to determine your Hogwarts House by adding all the signs per House. For me it woud be:

Gryffindor
Aries 5% + Leo 15.4% + Sag. 13.2% = 33.6%

Slytherin
Gemin. 5% + Scorp. 17.7% + Cap. 1.6% = 24.3%

Ravenclaw
Virgo 8.6 + Aqua. 11% + Pisces 4.2% = 23.8 %

Hufflepuff
Taur. 2.4% + Canc. 9.6% + Libra 6.5% = 18.3%

That would be Gryffindor as my Hogwarts House

Some people calculate the dominants in a different way, I know some people add more wage to personal planets that generational planets. I have done both, and most of all it would still be the same house. Sometimes, when two houses are almost equal, it can change. I don't care about generational planets. You would expect the Pluto Scorpio generation all to end up in Slytherin, but this is absolutely not the case. My friend only has 7.77% Scorpio and Slytherin came fourth. So I just stick with the system wich gives every planet the same wage.

What about your houses? Are you a fierce Gryffindor, a cunning Slytherin, a smart Ravenclaw or a friendly Hufflepuff? Good luck at finding out! Have fun!

Gryffindor
Aries 12.3% + Leo 5.7% + Sag. 1.8% = 19.8%

Slyterin
Gemin. 8.5% + Scorp. 12.9% + Cap.11.6% = 33%

Ravenclaw
Virgo 9.2% + Aqua. 9.8% + Pisces 6.7% = 25.7%

Hufflepuff
Taur. 14.3% + Canc. 4.2% + Libra 3.1% = 21.6%

That's exactly my point! How nice! I think the energies of your birth chart are the energies the Sorting Hat feels.

Can you name the Slytherin qualities you see in yourself?

For me, I always considered myself a Ravenclaw, but when I give it a good thought, I used to be very Gryffindor, until life got a hold on me. But this just reminds me of who I am originally. I am intellectual, but I am very brave and I fight fiercely for what I believe in and I am not afraid of confronting people right on. So I am a proud Gryffindor.

Soo... according to this I'm Hufflepuff. But I'm way too lazy for that to fit very well. And I'm a lot more of a Ravenclaw than those results show. I'm very Mercury dominant, so either Ravenclaw or Slytherin would be a better fit.

Well, as you can see, your numbers are pretty much equally spread. I think the Sorting Hat would have a difficult time to determine your house. I see your Cancer is high so although you see yourself as lazy, maybe you are just a caring, nurturing and loyal friend/girlfriend/wife/mother (asuming you are a woman). Slytherin is also very high, it is only 1 percent from Hufflepuff, so you are very Mercury (high Gemini) and also high on Scorpio. So by that, you can also CHOOSE to be Slytherin.

The site who wages the personal planets higher than the generational planets is: http://laratesting.us/index-signs.html

Maybe you can see if the score is different. Because this one is very undetermined because of the almost equal Hufflepuff and Slytherin. I am curious though what they have to say about your dominants. Sometimes it does make a difference. Especially when two or more houses are almost equal.

Gryffindor : Fire signs...don't think it would even be worth adding lol.

Slytherin : 18.8 % + 9.9 % + 8.0 % = 35.17%

This will be close

Ravenclaw : 4.0 % + 7.5 % + ....wait for it ... 21.4% = 32.9 %

Okay, not close, that 4 percent of Virgo did the trick I think.

Hufflepuff : Just for the Formality

2.7% + 2.3% + 11.5% = atleast it beats the Gryffindor...hmm not bad Hufflepuff... not bad at all.

I got Slytherin, which I'm ok with even though I'm a Ravenclaw

I had never checked the Pullen ranking though and I have to say I wholeheartedly disagree with its conclusions. I am in no way, shape, or form, a dominant Libra person. Tosh ^^ lol

I guess I'm fairly loyal, but overall I don't feel very cancerian. Partly I guess because I will never be anyone's girlfriend/wife/mother, so I don't identify well with the nurturing aspect of Cancer. I do have the Cancer intuition though. I also have Libra Rising and Venus in Taurus, and yeah sure, I'm rather Libran, but my Taurus Venus is in the 8th and feels very Slytherin, lol!

This other site does give very different numbers, so let's see what I get.

Gryffindor: 2.22 + 0 + 18.8 = 21.02
Slytherin: 18.8 + 6.66 + 1.11 = 26.55
Ravenclaw: 8.88 + 0 + 6.66 = 15.54
Hufflepuff: 11.1 + 13.3 + 12.2 = 36.6

Soo, no big difference there. Even less Ravenclaw, which I've always self-identified as (librarian as I am), and more Hufflepuff.

Yeah, I think the common archetype of Cancer as the mothering housewife is often construed by those that take the highly feminine aspects of this sign too literally. I personally see it more in line with creation itself, the divine essence of the feminine energy. Giving "birth" to something in physical reality, perhaps in the form of art if one is an artist or in anything else that exemplifies creation of any kind. Being protective of one's specialty in that regard correlates with the nurturer in Cancer and also with the impulse to leave a "legacy" of some kind after one passes on. At least that's how I relate to it, even though I admittedly can identify with some of the familial aspects, though not as heavily as it is often implied, and I myself have Cancer very, very prominently in my birth chart. I can totally see a connection with Ravenclaw in this way, and I relate to that house the most too, though oddly on Pottermore always come out as Slytherin...

Looks like I scored the highest in Slytherin here as well, with Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff following closely behind.

Cardinal 38.7 : Water 29.7 = Cancer = Hufflepuff
Cardinal 38.7 : Air 29.1 = Libra = Hufflepuff
Cardinal 38.7 : Earth 23.7 = Capricorn = Slytherin
Cardinal 38,7 : Fire 17.5 = Libra = Gryffindor

I value hard work, patience, justice, and loyalty, friendship and kindness (Hufflepuff) ... and admire cunning, ambition, leardership, resourcefulness (Slytherin)

When I took the official Harry Potter test I got Hufflepuff I think it fit me, but I think a little bit of Ravenclaw may fit me too. As well as Gryffindor.. actually probably not Gryffindor because Im not very brave lol but I am pretty adventurous
Dang it I thought I had Gryffindor !

Cute and fun idea btw (:

As a Sun, Venus and Uranus Scorpio myself, I am very intested in Astrology (started age 7 or so) and the magic of Harry Potter like films. Although my Leo and Sagittarius were also very high so that made me a Gryffindor.

Well, I think eveyone has a different opinion on this. But there are a few rules for the score. You have to look at the sign and planet and house, and the more the planet is at home, or extalted the more points it gets. So the Pluto in Scorpio generation has a lot of Scorpio energy. But if someone has Leo Sun in 5, a lot of Leo energies adds. And al the energies will cancel each other out and finally one of the houses comes out as the winner.

Some sites will give less points to generational planets because their influence is more subtle. But I just think the normal system, in wich every planet has the same importance suits just fine. If one of the houses is VERY outstanding in score, as the 51% Ravenclaw did, other systems will just say Ravenclaw too.

You can also check the http://laratesting.us/index-signs.html and see for yourself if the score is different. This site gives a higher score to personal planets and a lower score for generational planets.
