UNDERSTANDING ASTROLOGY

Houses

Houses represent an area of the sky we see from our point of view on earth. If you look at the rising sun, you are looking at the first house. If you are looking above your head, you are looking and the 9th/10th house. If you are looking at the setting sun, you are looking at the seventh house. We can see part of seventh, first and cannot see 6-2.  The houses never move, they are fixed. They symbolize an area of life. They describe where the planets and signs are acting in your life. There are twelve houses, just like there are twelve signs. They show the position of the sky.

Houses

Houses of the sky indicate areas of life, or subject matters that are universal in everyone's life experience like relationships, money, death, debt, children, the list goes on. On one level, the houses simply explain how and where energy will manifest in your life experience. For example, if you have a lot of planets in your second house of personal finances, money or material wealth could be an important theme in your life. While energy manifests in certain areas of our life, the deeper meaning of the house should be taken into account in order to grasp not just where energy is manifesting but why it is manifesting there. For example, if you have a lot going on in your second house, finances may be a theme for you but what is driving this energy comes back to how you value yourself and your personal sense of self worth. Because, the basis of material wealth and personal opulence  always projets from a deeper subconscious space of self worth and personal values. See the chart below and tips to test out what houses mean in your chart.

To understand how the houses operate in your chart, you can ask yourself a few questions like,

  • What house is my sun in? How do the themes of that house show where I shine in life? 

  •  What house is my moon in? Does the house my moon is in show a place where I need and crave security?
