The Twelve Houses

The houses divide the birth chart into twelve sections, each representing a different area of life. Unlike the signs, which describe qualities of expression, the houses show where planetary energies are most active or relevant. They reflect the structure of a person's lived experience—covering everything from identity and relationships to career, health, and spiritual growth.

The house in which a planet appears tells us where that planetary energy tends to play out in day-to-day life. The signs on the cusps of the houses describe the tone or approach to each life area, while the planets that rule those signs provide deeper insight into how those themes are carried out. The houses are linked to the rotation of the Earth, so their arrangement is specific to the exact time and location of birth, making them a vital part of what personalizes each chart.
