In astrology, an Astrological Quadrant is one of four major sections of a natal chart created by the Ascendant–Descendant and Midheaven–Imum Coeli axes. Each quadrant contains three houses and represents a distinct region of the chart. Astrologers may examine how planets are distributed among the four quadrants to identify broader patterns of concentration, orientation, and emphasis. Quadrant analysis is a structural method and is often considered alongside hemispheres, house groupings, and other forms of chart distribution.
