We believe the future of astrology is in whole signs, and nowhere is this more relevant than in the science and art of astrolocality. Modern astrologers need to get away from the overly complex approach which dominates their craft. Astrology was not meant to be specific. It's goal is to provide a general framework within which to work in, and whole signs/houses/or aspects does this beautifully.

In astrolocality the planet is divided into twelve slices or rising signs beginning with the home sign at birth. This requires a specific natal birth time and place -without which astrolocality cannot work. If you do not know your precise birth time you will be left guessing as to where exactly a sign will begin or end on the map.

In addition to your twelve Ascendant slices or zones which show how your chart and planets are spread out across the globe, there are also twelve Midheaven slices or "power" zones as well. How the two zones mix or interrelate is is not really certain or clear at present but makes great research or study.

While many of the newer astrology programs incorporate whole sign houses, few incorporate this into whole sign mapping. One of the leaders in this respect is the Kepler astrology program which is able to display whole sign maps. Another is Sirius, and more will certainly be doing so in the future.
