The twelfth house in astrology is our last and final house. Here again there are slight differences between the traditional and modern meanings for this house. While both point to a place where one finds himself alone and secluded, traditional descriptions tend to be much more austere and troublesome than modern definitions. The 12th house…

Astrology Basics: The Eleventh House
The eleventh house in astrology is a succedent house, being the second house from the angle of the midheaven (10th house cusp). If you’ll remember the other succedent houses – the 2nd, 5th, and 8th – are the houses that are second from their respective angles and commonly refer to the wealth, values, and allies…
Astrology Basics: The Tenth House
The astrological tenth house sits right at the top of the chart wheel. Because it represents the place where the sun is highest in the sky this house has come to be associated with things that elevate us in the eyes of others – my career, reputation, and social standing within my community. The meaning…
Astrology Basics: The Ninth House
The meaning of the ninth house in astrology has remained fairly constant between traditional and modern astrology. The ninth house can be associated with those things or activities that expand our perception of the world we live in. Higher education, long distance travel, and systems such as religion, philosophy or the law are also indicated…

In my first article in this series I introduced the ascendent,…
Astrology Basics: The Sixth House
In my last blog post about the fifth house I talked about how modern and traditional astrology differ in their interpretation of the various houses. If you’re new to astrology or a student of astrology I’d suggest you use the traditional meanings. I find they’re much more straightforward than the modern meanings and more accurately…
Astrology Basics: The Fifth House
In my previous blog posts about the astrological houses I briefly mentioned the difference between traditional and modern astrology. Traditional astrology is much more literal while modern astrology is based on psychological principles that reflect the inner workings of the personality. It can be easy to forget that only a few hundred years ago people,…

I get a fair number of visitors each day, and I’m curious- what’s your sun sign?
Astrology Basics: The Fourth House
As far as astrological houses are concerned the four angles of the chart are the most powerful outlets in the life. The angles and the angular houses (the first, fourth, seventh, and tenth) represent the major aspects of my life on the physical plane- my body (first house), my family and origin (fourth house), my…
