What are the Houses in Astrology?

January 20th, 2020|ASTROLOGY|

Similar to a clock, the Zodiac also has 12 segments. These segments, called astrological houses, are ruled by the Zodiac signs and reveal in which spheres of life planetary influences play a role. Your zodiac sign tells you the expression of the planets and their impact on your character and destiny. At the same time, astrology houses help to explain which areas of your life these energies affect the most. Read on to learn more about astrology houses.

What role do the houses play in your life?

Every astrological house is connected to a set of characteristics. Each time a planet enters a specific house, it highlights the said characteristics. For astrologers, the houses are very important in predicting your destiny. This is for two reasons.

    • At the moment of your birth, the planets were in certain houses and signs
    • Because they can tell what areas of your life will come to the foreground and at what time.

Among the twelve houses, the first six represent personal characteristics, while the last six reflect interpersonal interactions. Let’s now look at what each house stands for in more detail.
