1. A Summary of the Twelve Houses
"The Twelve houses of the horoscope define twelve areas of our life. The beginning of each of the houses is called the cusp. Each house has what is called a natural sign and natural ruling planets. This is the sign and planet which are associated with that house in the natural chart beginning with Aries and ending with Pisces. " |
2. Angular, Succeedent, Cadent
The houses are not all equal in strength and power. If a planet is located in an angular house, it is much more forceful in its effects than it would be in a cadent house. |
3. ANGULARITY
In any given area of life, most people are milling around aimlessly, waiting for someone to tell them what to do, and there's a small minority of people giving all the orders. |
5. Astrological Houses of the Zodiac
The First House is called the Ascendant. The sign of the Zodiac on its cusp is called the rising sign. It represents the individual's basic point of reference toward life, his self-awareness, how his experiences are assimilated and how he responds to outside stimuli. |
6. Astronomical Foundations of the Astrological Houses
In order to understand the origins of the different house systems and the problems connected with them, it is helpful to discuss a few terms of celestial mechanics which are important from an astrological perspective for the construction of the respective systems. |
7. Cadent houses
" We can look at cadent houses as being the thought (or lack of it) that we do before we take action (angular houses). They also show the analysis and criticism we do on the resources we already have (the succedent houses). " |
8. Empty Houses
An empty house is one that is not occupied by any planets at the time of birth. But this does not necessarily mean that, that particular area of life represented by the house is unimportant. |
9. Hemisphere analysis
Although often neglected by the busy astrologer, hemisphere analysis is a valuable tool in assessing the general overall 'flavour' of a natal chart. |
