The houses of the Zodiac represent aspects of the human life experience.
The six houses below the Ascendant line are associated with personal
development, while the houses above this line indicate more social and
worldly relationships. As the birth chart is constructed, the planets
and signs that reside in each house indicate the life's work that is needed
to gain understanding and to fully embrace each of these categories of
Human experience.
What follows is a brief description of each house and the importance that
these houses holds in our unique journey through this world.
I would highly recommend the excellent book on Astrology entitled,
Making the Gods Work for You by Caroline W. Casey.
