My two classmates, born within 1 hour, are both Sun Aries, but their personalities seem to differ by 12 constellations. They are very much like Aries, warm and straightforward, and like to make friends. Slow heating, avoiding things, like being alone. Why are the same sun constellations so different? Later, I looked at their astrolabes, and the others were not much different, except Aries the Sun, one in the first house and the other in the twelfth house. This is why both of them are Aries, but their personalities seem to be completely opposite.
The house in the astrolabe is as important as planets and constellations, which affects the expression of planetary energy and the fields where constellations can develop better. When planets fall in different houses, there will be different explanations. The sun falls in the first house representing the self, which is more in line with the energy of the sun itself (main character and self-worth) and easy to show the appearance of the sun Aries; The sun sets in the twelfth house symbolizing darkness and secret, where the energy of the sun melts.
Similarly, the constellations in different houses will make us behave differently. Our birth chart symbolizes the way we express our desires and needs. It is like a plant seed, which contains a blueprint of what this person will become. The birth chart tells us the characteristics of this seed and the general performance of its growth process.
Planets, constellations, houses and * * * are isomorphic to form the whole astrolabe. Only by linking the three together and in-depth study can we interpret the "life handbook" of the birth chart more comprehensively and accurately, and reveal how to realize your potential in the most natural way and avoid detours.
This time, we will start with the fall of planets and constellations, find out these six problems of the house, thoroughly understand the house, and then comprehensively analyze the astrolabe.
1. What is a palace? 12 houses have different meanings and names. For example, the first house, also known as the palace of life, represents individuality and vitality. The second house, also known as the financial silk palace, represents the ability to make money and values ... each house affects different areas of our lives. This is similar to planets and constellations. When they are related, what kind of reaction will they have?
The planet itself is energy, and the constellation of the planet indicates how we can use this energy. For example, the sun in Virgo will realize itself by paying attention to details and dealing with practical problems. Palace symbolizes an environment, which is "house" in foreign languages, meaning residence and house. The planet lives in which house it falls, indicating which field this energy should be used in. For example, if the sun is in the sixth house, the value and self-confidence that the sun wants to embody may be displayed at work or when providing services.
Constellations, on the other hand, are similar to the explanation of planets falling into the palace. The situation of the house, in some ways, is far more complicated than the planets and constellations.
Every house is different in size?
First of all, there are many kinds of palace divisions, including flat palace system and Shibungi palace system. In the former case, 12 palaces are the same size, each of which is 30. In Shibungi's house system, if you were not born in the equatorial region, the size of 12 house in the astrolabe is always different (especially when you were born in high latitudes). Placide system is the most familiar one, and it is also the most commonly used one at present. (Note: When reading this article, you can use this as a basis to study the meaning of palace. )
Some houses span 60 degrees, while others may be only 15 degrees or less.
Is the bigger the house more important?
To some extent, this is correct, because the planet that moves every day will stay in a bigger house for a longer time, rather than in a smaller house, thus triggering the affairs in this field more permanently. However, a smaller house, especially when there are many planets in it, is still very meaningful. Even if there are no planets in the house, the life field of the house will be emphasized if the guardian star of the house head constellation has a key configuration or phase. In addition, although planets travel in smaller houses for a shorter time, they usually "finish their work" in a more intense and compact way, making the lessons in this house more difficult and faster.
What if the palace is too big or too small?
In Shibungi's palace system, due to the different sizes of palaces, the larger palace can span three constellations, while the smaller palace has a head and a tail in one constellation. Then, the larger house will completely "contain" a constellation, which we call interception; Similarly, a constellation completely contains a house, which we call taken away.
Is the intercepted constellation (completely within a certain palace) less important than the first constellation of the palace?
Generally speaking, the constellation of the palace master is more important, but the intercepted constellation will also affect the affairs represented by the palace master. Planets that fall into the intercepted constellation have the same influence as those that fall into other constellations. The specific impact will be developed later. However, some astrologers claim that if a constellation is taken away, its features will be internalized or pointed inward. Personally, I didn't find such a situation.
Next, we will elaborate on the explanation of the planets in the palace.
Second, how to interpret the planet's falling palace? What does it mean when one or more planets fall in a house? There are three basic principles to explain the fall of the earth. To understand, let's take the sunset in the fourth house as an example.
1. When a planet falls in a certain house, the functions and activities it symbolizes can be most naturally expressed in the field of experience represented by that house. The constellation of the planet further illustrates how the activity will be carried out. The sun in the fourth house hopes to develop in the family field represented by the fourth house: to be valued by family members, to establish a position at home, or to engage in real estate industry.
2. On the other hand, the life field symbolized by this palace gets the most natural treatment and response among the types of activities represented by the planet it falls on. For example, the four houses symbolize the territory of the self, and the energy of the sun is used to express the self. People in the fourth house of the sun will be keen to establish and maintain their territory.
3. The planets in a certain house also reveal the archetypal nature that we were born in this life field or experience layer. This is the inner energy that we tend to perceive or process in this field. It is accompanied by our birth, the innate picture of this field of life. For example, the fourth house of the sun strongly needs a sense of security. Their goal is to experience the field of family or self-possession and find the past and its roots.
Third, how to interpret the constellation falling into the palace? The constellation configuration of the house is more complicated than the configuration of the planets.
First of all, each palace head (the starting point of the palace) is located in a specific constellation and has a specific degree. As shown above, the head of the first house is in Cancer 1 1 degree, the head of the second house is in Cancer at 29 degrees, the head of the third house is in Leo at 20 degrees, and so on.
Therefore, we combine the meaning of cancer with the meaning of the first house. Among them, the characteristics of Cancer will also affect the second house, because the head of the second house is also in Cancer. Although Cancer has only appeared once in the second house, it needs to be emphasized because it is the palace master. The characteristics of Leo apply to the third house.
If we look more closely, we will find that constellations appear in the house in many forms:
The first one: even if it is not the constellation of the palace master, part of the constellation will still fall in a certain palace. In this example, the second house is dominated by cancer, but Leo occupies most of this house. Therefore, the second house is not only influenced by cancer, but also by Leo. Usually, the influence of the head of the palace constellation is greater than that of the intrauterine constellation, even though the latter has a larger area in this house.
Secondly, if there are two main constellations connected, that is, the same constellation, then in the "Shibungi system", the phenomenon of interception will appear. For example, in the example dish, Cancer occupies the first house.
At the same time, another constellation will also be intercepted by a certain house, that is, the head and tail of this constellation are all in this house. This means that a certain constellation is the head of the house, the middle constellation is completely located in the house, and the tail of the house falls behind the last constellation. In this way, the palace is influenced by three constellations, but the constellation of Gongtou is still the most important.
In the example, Cancer and Capricorn are the first signs of two houses: Cancer is the first and second house, the first house is cut off, Capricorn is the seventh and eighth house, and the seventh house is cut off. From this, we can find the constellations intercepted by other houses. The head of the fifth house is Libra 23, Scorpio is completely in the fifth house, and the tail of the palace falls several times in front of Sagittarius. Scorpio is a truncated constellation. It also appears in the relative constellation 1 1, and Taurus is truncated. The standard of interpreting the constellation falling into the house is similar to that of the planet, but it should be remembered that the constellation falling into the house is more important than other constellations.
There are also three basic principles to interpret the constellation falling into the palace:
When a constellation falls in a certain house, it can be most naturally expressed in the field of experience represented by that house. The constellation of a palace symbolizes the type of experience that disc owners can best realize their potential in this respect. The constellation of a palace also reveals the prototype energy type that the disc owner tends to experience in this life field. 4. Who is the owner of the house? The main star of the palace is another factor to analyze the significance of planets and constellations falling into the house, and it is also the key to connect planets, constellations and houses. When a planet is in a certain house, it will be associated with the house where its ruler constellation is located.
In the example disk, Venus is in the tenth house, because Venus is the ruler of Taurus and Libra, and it is also the ruler of this house. It will be connected with the house where Taurus and Libra are located: Libra is related to the fourth house (this house has 23 degrees) and the fifth house (the house is dominated by Libra with 23 degrees), and Taurus is captured by 1 1. Therefore, through the guardian relationship between Libra and Taurus, Venus in the tenth house connects the fourth house (home), the fifth house (children) and the 1 1 house (group).
Then, this person's occupation is: working at home (fourth house) (tenth house), running an organization that allows parents to better establish relations with their children (Venus) (fifth house) (1 1 palace).
In short, planets will affect:
Its house, such as the tenth house where Venus is located; Guardian constellation is the house of its head constellation, such as Libra's fifth house; The house where the guardian constellation is located (even if it is not the first sign), such as the fourth, fifth and eleventh houses where Taurus and Libra are located. Generally speaking, the degree of influence can be arranged in the above order.
In addition, the meaning of the planet falling into the palace is similar to that of its ruling star sitting in the palace. If you have cancer in the eighth house, you can refer to the moon in the eighth house to learn more about the possible performance of this configuration. If you have Pisces in the fifth house, you can refer to Neptune in the fifth house and find that their expressions in this house are so similar.
5. What if the number of planets in the house is different? The influence of planets on the house is related to the number of planets falling into the house.
What if there are more planets in the palace?
A house may contain multiple planets. Some houses are "crowded"-three, four or even more planets fall into them. In this case, the principle, drive, desire and power symbolized by each planet will be manifested in the life field under the control of this palace. If the nature of these planets is contradictory, such as expanding Jupiter and cautious and restrictive Saturn, then this field will face greater complexity. A house with two or more planets is especially important for the owner's life planning and goals.
In addition, other intrauterine planets that form a phase with a certain intrauterine planet will change the influence of this planet's falling into the palace. For example, Venus in the seventh house may indicate that it is easy to enter or accept a relationship. But if Saturn in the fourth house punishes Venus in the seventh house, the expression of Venus will be restricted by Saturn's characteristics.
I occasionally distinguish between intrauterine planets with good phase and intrauterine planets with negative phase. But remember, although a planet with a difficult phase needs more efforts to constructively integrate this planet with a negative phase, it does not necessarily operate in a negative way.
What if there are no planets in the palace?
There are palaces with "strong stars" and palaces without stars. Such a palace is called an "empty palace". "If a palace is empty, what does it mean?" This is a question that astrology beginners often ask me.
Some students seem to be worried about the empty palace, that is, the house without planets falling; "My fifth house is empty. Does this mean that I won't have children? " "My third house is empty. Does this mean that I have no thoughts? " "My second house is empty. I can't make money? "
There are only ten planets in our chart, but there are twelve houses. There must be some houses without planets falling down. This does not mean that nothing will happen in that life field, nor does it necessarily mean that this life field is unimportant. Strictly speaking, no palace is empty. Although there are no planets in a certain palace, there are still constellations in it, which will affect this life field. Therefore, the first step to interpret the empty palace is to associate the constellation characteristics of this palace with the life field symbolized by this palace.
The second step is to find the main star of the foreman constellation: in what house? In what constellation? What are the stages? In this way, we got a lot of information about this palace.
The third step is to find the guardian star of the intrauterine constellation (if it is different from the head constellation), its house position, seat number and phase.
In the model, the sixth house is empty. According to the above three steps, we can get a lot of information about this palace.
Its head constellation is Sagittarius: on one level, this shows that the disc owner will develop professional skills with Sagittarius characteristics (the sixth house), such as helping others broaden their horizons. The main star of Sagittarius is Jupiter, which falls in the house of 1 1 which symbolizes the collective. Later, he can apply this skill in collective organizations (the sixth house guards the stars 1 1 house). Moreover, Jupiter and Mars meet in Taurus, and their personalities are suitable for leading (Mars) and may establish an organization (Taurus).
But we also need to see Capricorn in the sixth house. Therefore, Saturn, the ruler of Capricorn, also has an impact on the cause. Libra Saturn is very close to the junction of the fourth and fifth houses. We will consider working from home again. Saturn's proximity to the head of the fifth house is also related to this house. One area related to the fifth house is children, so his work (the sixth house) may be related to children. Anyway, is it highly similar to the conclusion reached by the previous investigation of Venus in the tenth house?
The key points in the astrolabe will be presented in many ways, and the above interpretation method is called the "cube rule". Many houses where planets fall are naturally important, but we can't ignore the importance of so-called empty houses. Especially if the ruler of an empty palace is a key point in the astrolabe, such as a bucket-shaped handle or a locomotive-shaped leading star, then the field of experience related to this palace in one's life will be highlighted.
The empty palace may also contain the missing elements in the T triangle, which makes the life field it represents have a great influence on the overall balance of the disc owner's mind.
6. How does a planet affect two houses? Usually, when a planet falls in the last few degrees of one house, it is close to the head line of the next house, and its influence may be felt in both houses. If the constellation of this planet is the same as that of the next house, the tolerance can even be extended to five degrees when evaluating its influence. The field of experience between palaces is naturally continuous. Planets that fall at the end of one house and are close to the head of the next house will make the relationship between houses important.
For example, when Venus is at the end of the sixth house, near the head of the seventh house, the disc owner may fall in love with someone he meets at work (the sixth house) and get married (the seventh house). If Mercury is between the tenth house and 1 1, professional contact (the tenth house) may turn into friendship or contact with new groups (the first house 1 1).
We often face such a situation. If there is a planet in the astrolabe near the head line of a house based on the inaccurate birth time, then considering the time difference, the position of the planet will be different. The planet may actually fall in this house, not near the head line of the house.
Similarly, considering the differences caused by different palace systems, the planets near the head line in one palace system may be intrauterine stars in another. Therefore, many astrologers believe that the planet in the middle of the house has the most reliable influence because its position in this field is very stable.
