Astrology houses are one of the basic elements of an astrology chart.
Combined with the planets and the signs, you have everything you need to read an astrology chart.
While the planets reveal your motivation for doing things and the signs represent your attitude toward life, the astrology houses reveal the areas of your life in which everything is occurring.
For example, you might have your Moon in Scorpio, indicating that you have powerful emotions and cause major transformations in your life and the lives of those around you. But it's the astrology house that reveals where this will take place. Will it be in your finances? your love life?
Essentially the houses take the astrological explanation of your behavior and the events that happen in your life, to an understanding of the role you play in what is happening to and around you.
No longer are you the person experiencing events. You are now the person causing the events to happen.
When you understand the role that the astrology houses play in your chart, you have a deeper understanding of how to use astrology to foster personal growth and transformation.
If there is an area of your life that is not what you would like it to be, a pattern that keeps reoccurring, or an obstacle you are facing, the astrology houses reveal how you have contributed to the problem, what you expect will happen, and what changes you can make to move closer to the results you seek.
An Example of the Insight and Guidance Provided by the Astrology Houses
If you have always struggled financially, have had money disappear as quickly as it came in, or have always been worried that you'll never be able to get ahead, the astrology houses will reveal:
- your fears, where they come from, and how to deal with them
- what you expect will happen to you financially and why
- how your financial difficulties benefit you, why they are there, and how they were necessary for you to achieve your life purpose
When this understanding is unlocked, you have the tools you need to change how you relate to money, to stop limiting yourself, and to allow more money to flow to you.
Thus, you can think of the astrological houses as an instruction book for life.
