The Houses of the zodiac don’t have to be confusing! There was a time when you would have needed to know an astrologer to have them cast your birth chart for you, unless you knew how to cast your own, of course! Today, the magic of the Internet has taken the struggle out of getting your Birth Chart cast. A free site will automatically calculate your Birth Chart if you plug in some information. Simply enter your date of birth, your time of birth, and the location where you were born here for your free results.
Once you get your Birth Chart that lists all the signs and astrological planetary alignment that was working together when you were born, understanding the astrological Houses and meanings comes next. The zodiac signs and their Houses is a study of what the planets and zodiac signs were doing and where they were positioned at the very moment when you were born. Zodiac signs and Houses influence personality, how you think and behave, and what conditions you will deal with in your life. Zodiac Houses and planets don’t decide everything or take away your choices. However, they decide some things, and understanding what they do control will help you understand yourself and your life better.
There are twelve different sections, or Houses in your Birth Chart, and they each influence things from how you will make friends and lovers to what your career will be like. Today, we will explore what happens when the Sun moves through each section, or House, but first we will learn a little about what each House is called and what it governs.
