Because the angular houses are the most powerful places in the chart (Lilly says "Planets in angles do more forcibly show their effects"[2]), succedent houses—which are less powerful than the angular but more powerful than the cadent houses[3]—also have a quality of appertaining to the angular houses, much as a representative or underling of a powerful person. In this way, the second house, for example, which succeeds the first house of the body and personality, tends to signify the things that belong to the person. In a similar fashion, the eighth house, which follows the seventh house of the partner or spouse or “other person,” represents the belongings of the other person or partner. Succedent houses, as a whole, have a stable, unchanging, fixed quality, deriving from their central position in each quadrant of the chart.

The post is about the angles, not the houses. I don't want to talk about all of the houses. I want to talk about the specific cardinal angles..

im not trying to convince anyone whats more important. I want people to share their personal experiences with the angles itself.

Traditionally, since the eleventh appertains to the tenth and the tenth was the house of the king, the eleventh has denoted the king's advisers, his council and allies.

How can you come to an accurate understanding if you don't examine it in the entire context. How one resonates with a particular house depends on the circuitry of the whole. Besides a conceptual understanding of the different parts, I don't see how you can explain resonating more with one over others without putting it in context.

Like for me, it would be the ASC. My sun is conjunct my ASC along with my chart ruler (widely), giving me a first house emphasis. However, my moon is in cap and my 10th ruler is in my 7th. I have a lot of angular emphasis, but because of planetary placements I resonate most with my ASC. I should have mentioned this earlier.

Some people say that they feel more of their midheaven than their ascendant and even the IC is becoming more recognizable. Me personally, I resonate highly with my IC even though there aren't any planets there affecting it (except for my Lilith but thats not a planet. My Node trines it too).

Im not knocking the other houses or trying to discredit them, I just want to know peoples experiences with these specific types if they can share. But definitely agree with what you're saying that they are all important

Since it has a certain affinity to emotional sensitivity/Cancer and all things related to feelings. I understand that.

But then I also notice my Gemini IC, maybe because my Moon and Mars are in the same sign. Kind of a wandering, detached sense of nostalgia. I miss the idea of the past, but I have no problems turning lose of physical objects in order to move on. It's a strange kind of feeling.

Leo ASC. I love it My mom and 3 of my friends have Leo Moons and it falls in my 1st house. I feel very comfortable around them.

Scorpio IC. Lately(and for the next 30 years or more who knows) i'm feeling Scorpio energy more because tPluto hitting my planets. I remember "mistaking" myself as a Scorpio when i didn't know anything about astrology, that was years ago.

Aquarius DSC. This is where my "stellium in whole sign system" is. I have 4 planets in Aquarius. I attract Aquarius dominant people a lot, even if they don't have Aquarius placements. I don't think i "disown" these planets tbh! Instead it gives a "Libra colour" to them.

Taurus MC. This is a good placement. It says a lot about how i'd like to work: where i feel safe. Safe = home (at least for me) etc. Unfortunately i tend to be lazy about career matters. I have a Taurus Moon(receveing 3 squares, Venus Uranus and Neptune ) in the 9th/10th cusp.

So far, everyone's responses kinda illustrate what I mean about circuitry. Have you ever gone through yours? Aries23 makes a good point about his chart, and your circuitry is kinda similar. Your IC is in Gemini, it's ruler is in Leo in your 7th house unaspected. I've read unaspected planets can dominate a chart (this alone could be the culprit for your affinity with the IC). Mercury in Leo is disposed by your sun (ego). Where is your sun? How strong is it? What is it disposed by? Are these planets your dominants? These things can help explain your resonance with this part of your chart. I've read that dispositors don't direct the energy (as it is sometimes inferred when we use terms like "lord" and "ruler") of the planet it disposes, it channels it. Some plantes operate in a looped system (mutual reception), others are expressed through a planet(s) in domicile signs. Sometimes, it can seem like there are an infinite amount of reasons behind a certain energetic resonance. What is the circuitry like for your other angles. Do you find that your IC is the most dominant or complex? So many facets of yourself could be entangled in this one area.

Do you have planets in Gemini? Do you relate more towards mercurial energy or specifically the energy of Gemini on your 4th house cusp (4th house themes experienced with a Gem twist?). What's your theory on why you relate more to your IC than the other angles (sorry haven't read all your threads on the subject). Is there anything specific you're looking to learn, or just general experiences?

Here's a pretty good article on dispositorship: http://www.bluelightlady.com/blog/2014/02/whos-in-charge-of-your-chart/

I know! I'm going on and on talking about stuff you're not really asking about. Lol! I don't really expect you to answer all these questions by the way! Just some things to think about. When you consider things this way, it kinda becomes obvious why some people vibrate more towards one axis than another. Add back in the themes of the houses and what a complex web it becomes. I'm officially leaving now as I have throughly overwhelmed myself!
