I want to know which house system you use and the reason why you use that house system, why you find it accurate/better than another one. Right now I am a bit confused about which house system to use, because placements will change using another house system.

I use whole signs for myself.

The only changes include my Mars going from the Eleventh House to the Twelfth and my Saturn moving to the Seventh from the Sixth.

Those two placements, Mars/12 and Saturn/7, fit me better.

I use whole signs too!

I only will read a chart in whole signs. I really don't believe in the other systems. I would not consider a reading of my chart other than in whole signs to be accurate.

Whole signs, to my understanding, is also one of the older systems (in Western).

My chart is messed up royally in Placidus--almost everything changes--and it is not me at all. My whole sign chart is me. Period.

I always use placidus and the whole sign house have the same placement of planets..just mars and NN change to house 12 which also suit me. Maybe the whole sign suit me better...I will look more to that... the house rulers will in any case be more easier and more clear in the interpretation

For me the whole sign is best when looking at a natal chart on it's own for a reading and for progressions
For transits and returns I tend to use placidus.
I'm still very much split on this because with me and whole sign, the sun and the nodal placements are more accurate, Uranus in fourth fits me PERFECTLY! But Mars in 11th doesn't really fit, then again, neither does the other placement in the 10th house. There we go, no longer split, WHOLE SIGN IT IS! (You can tell I'm a Gemini)

I use Placidus for transits and returns because personally I believe that nothing affects you until it moves past the cusp (e.g. Saturn moving into the first house as it will for me in October won't really affect me until it moves over my ASC which will be in December)

I used Placidus, but hell no, it makes better sense, when i use Porphiry. But i think, i'll try the full sign system too. By the way, how that counts? For example, a man has rising sign in Scorpio 12 degrees, do i use all Scorpio as a first house, and so on?

I use placidus because it fits me better. Equal would put my sun, mars, venus, nnode and merc in the 12th which is not me. Whole puts jupiter in my 10th. Placidus puts it in the 9th and a 9h jupiter fits me better. My luck with authorities is terrible thanks to pluto but when it comes to 9h matters, it's simply amazing.

Two people can use different house systems but it really doesn't matter; what matters is how the chart is interpreted. And it's likely that no two people will interpret a chart the same, in total, as we're not robots all from the same manufacturer. You can easily give your chart to 10 different astrologers, and they would come up with 10 diff interpretations as a gestalt. And they would all take their own way at arriving at their conclusions. If they've taken their time with it, you'd see that they each hold a piece of the puzzle. None of them can give you everything as they are limited as they are just one person with one frame of reference, their own. It seems you want it to be clear and simple, but even computer generated reports run on their individual algorithms.
