Twelfth Planet Book I Of The Earth

Recently I have seen various online astrology articles with multiple approaches to the reading of the 12th house. Some of those articles were rather good, but a heap of left me questioning whether the usual fundamental principle of the 12th house were wholly understood. It is veritably not one of the having little impact houses to grasp and read. This article will take you back to basics, 12th house basics, and all remarks will be based on the Tropical Placidus system. First of all, what are astrological houses?

The sky is full of stars at the most awful distances from each other and from Earth, yet through the centuries we have been competent to generate an “as above, so below” set of references. We study the patterns of the sky and their general effect on our world and it is inhabitants, the energies in signs and aspects. That is the “as above” percentage of astrology. What with regards to the “so below” share of the process? My description starts with the fact that when we look at the area of chosen effect, our local physical space and our lives, we will have to hence make our reading physical. As a planet in a solar scheme we are contained within those sky bodies we see, but because this is our mutual footing, we don’t count ourselves amidst the stars. This footing is physical reality for us, earthly experience. Cosmic energies are continually bombarding and influencing us, affecting and at times infecting us, the physical inhabitants of the physical earth. The primary realization must be that houses have to do with our physical reality.

When you look at any usual chart, the entire sky is laid out in it is actual circular pattern, commonly around the outside of the wheel form. We have an arbitrary starting point, the Ascendant but it is a finish 360-degree circle. What is not readily understood is that the center of that circular chart holds the Earth itself. Let me repeat that. Earth and it is inhabitants are in the very center of each chart. You are in the center of your chart and the point that represents you on an individual basis is the Ascendant. To try to study all of humane experience in one bite is just too difficult, so we will have to break down that experience to littler increments to achieve understanding. The whole of the chart is you and your experience. The divisions we use to formulate understandable compartments are the houses, arenas of physical reality and experience.

We use the number 12 for houses just as there are 12 signs. Our wheel is 360 degrees and 12 conveniently divides evenly into that number. Equal house charting reflects those equivalent 30 degree segments. Have you ever noticed that life does not seem all that equal? When you add the dimensions of longitude, latitude as well as date and time, those houses modify in size and range, what was once equivalent becomes unequal. To me unequal reflects reality. There are a good deal of scientific ways to mathematically measure that division of space but that is too big a subject for this article. I choose the Placidus house scheme because it works for me.

Just to paint a clear picture, date determines the broadest stroke of a chart. Time of birth refines it to a heap of degree but it is longitude and latitude that further refines it to the personal. No two objects may occupy the same space at the same time, so each chart cast will have to be different, now and again marginally dissimilar as in the case of multiple births. When you add time of day to emplacement of birth (longitude and latitude) a distinctive map emerges, one based on that local space at a queer moment in time, person in nature. The local space is without doubt or question specified and the increments (houses) of that specific space at that specific moment are devised for that chart.

The 12 increments begin at the Ascendant and proceed counter-clockwise around the chart, traveling a full 360-degree circle back to the Ascendant. Why counterclockwise? This is because the signs and their natural motion are measured clockwise (just look at any chart) and the Earth rotates one full circle each day bringing each degree of the zodiac to all points of possible charts each day. As the Earth spins on it is axis, the point of the zodiac that signifies birth moves forward in the signs (clockwise) as the Earth rotates on it is axis within (opposite direction for rotation or counter-clockwise). As you progression in your growth, your Ascendant and the remainder of the houses attached to that progressing Ascendant move forward in the zodiac and your whole chart view changes. You experience, grow and become and that is reflected in your altering signs and bodies (as above) as well as your house scheme (so below).

There is a natural, predictable order to your growth and progress. You get started as a helpless infant, reach out into life gradually, involving others and experience, through the full range of humane action until you reach your sunset years and the end of that peculiar life cycle. If you are a believer in continuing consciousness, then each end ought to likewise mark a new beginning, hopefully on a much higher turn of the spiral of life. The houses reflect that growth and progress sequentially. You would be wise to in addition study hemispheres and quadratures, the 6th/12th house axis and the mutual house breakdown of life, wealth, association and abstract to deepen your understanding of houses. I will be featuring these conceptions in future articles.

The basi house is I/me. The second house is mine. The third house is my prompt environs and my communication, (I am, I want, I commune that want). With whom do you communicate? The fourth house brings in the whole family. You hopefully grow in grace and talent in your fifth house. You learn there is no free ride in the 6th house. You develop socialization accomplishments in the 7th house. The mine of the 2nd house will have to give way to yours or ours in the 8th house. Outside environments and communications create in the 9th house, You will make it or break it in the 10th house. Your rewards or lack of them accrue in the 11th house and you wind down in the 12th house as you prepare for the coming change of cycle. See the natural sequence? Not all segments are equivalent or easy, hard, rewarding, frustrating, or any adjective you choose for any segment.

This article is in regards to the 12th house as one of the least understood segments. Each of what are referred to as the natural “water” houses, the 4th, 8th, and 12th are naturally ruled by Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces respectively, the water signs. They are categorized as “abstract” houses. Now we are getting to the heart of why they are not easy to perceive or read. Only part of the 4th house is confusing. We do comprehend home, hearth, family, and roots; but endings is such an abstract conception that we struggle. Part of the 8th house holds effortlessly understood categories such as death, taxes insurance, joint finance and indebtedness. Keywords such as catastrophe, destiny, or fate versus free will are abstract sufficient to be confusing. As close as I may tell the 12th house does not integrate any without apparent effort understood conceptions and is just full of abstract conceptions that double the confusion. One thing for sure, the three abstract houses just noted as natural water houses are not as easy to define as most of the other houses.

When I am teaching, I use a keyword conception to manufacture mental hooks for the beginning student. This “cookbook” approach is often times frowned upon by astrologers; nonetheless I think it gives a jump-start to the prodigious amount of selective information an astrology student ought to learn just to get started. I see it is a temporary crutch that may be discarded once it has served it is aim or kept because it makes it easy to find a beginning point for your readings. I instruct three specific memory hooks for the 12th house.

Common 12th house references are self-undoing, self-sabotage, karmic, mental, and hidden, Why? No single house is completely good or wholly evil and I’m not seeing any nice conceptions in that list. When reading the 12th for a new client, I whimsically say “Into each life a little rain will have to fall,” then talk to them with regards to their shortcomings, because that’s for the most part how I see that energy. If their 12th house is genuinely difficult you might say “The 12th house represents just how I shoot myself in the foot.” Make it introductory person rather than making somebody else the bad guy in this story. It makes it posing no difficulty to swallow what you need to tell them.

I would like you to do a simple exercise I instruct my students. Place one open hand a few inches in front of your face and then circle it around to the back of your head. At firstborn may you see your hand distinctly and then you lose direct view? You know your hand is there, but you can’t see it. When your hand is directly behind your face (Ascendant) at the back of your head (behind the Ascendant), you can’t see the territory or the issues. The 12th house is hence your blind spot. You may need another pair of eyes to see what you can’t see for yourself, a friend, a counselor, somebody to peer into your own potential darkness. That’s how we self-sabotage. We don’t see how we misuse or misapply12th house energy. The sign on the cusp and planets in the house do give us clues to our blind spot. Hidden means just that, not effortlessly accessed or understood or private, it doesn’t mean anything dire or foreboding.

Earlier I cited the sequencing of the houses. Use that sequencing selective information to coordinate the flow or stages of a life. What are you working on to fetch to remainder in this lifetime? Look to the 12th house. Additionally, there is another way to use sequence. The 12th could be what was present in experience just prior to physical birth represented by the Ascendant. That could be the two hours prior to birth, prior incarnation or experience, prior debits and credits to our spiritual bankbook, the potential of past lives with karmic implications. This is one form of karmic reading. A child born with a malefic (difficult energy) planet on the 12th house side but close to the Ascendant could have experienced pre-natal birth trauma. Your reading may be as simple as a specific fact and still be valid, perhaps abrupt but perfectly valid.

My third theme is that of our so-called second breath. If we have applied all that we consciously knew we had at our disposal, have expended all our time, experience and energy and are exhausted from the effort, a great deal of of us are competent to reach back inside ourselves and find a new wellspring from which to draw. In the west we call that our second breathe. I think that when you reach back inside yourself for calibers and abilities you didn’t even realize you had available, you reach into your 12th house, sort of a fall-back position. âEUR¨âEUR¨

When looking at any 12th house, my three prompt themes to explore are:

• the source or pattern of self undoing, that which may sabotage us through our ignorance of it is existence, hidden, unconscious, invisible;
• sequencing in all it is forms: the natural sequencing of the houses, the past as it relates to the present without delay prior to birth or perchance in prior experiencing such as karma and rebirth, as well as the drawing to a conclusion of any life cycle as it prepares for the new cycle to come;
• that second breath, a source of strength and resilience that we from time to time find within, our fall-back position.

I’ve covered all the in the first place listed descriptions with the exception of mental. I do want to fetch this forward, but this is a subject that takes much study and which will have to be handled delicately. If you are not a trained mental counselor recognize your limitations but do learn from your charts. Leave diagnosis and prescription to the trained professionals. Over the years I have done a great deal of strange charts that have taught me much in regards to the 6th/12th axis. For example, I did the charts of various psychologists and their people who are in need of medical care over various years. I noticed that the 6th/12th axis was always to a considerable degree involved, so to me this became the psychological axis. I’ve also researched the charts of over 100 serial killers in the last three years. The 6th/12th axis is to a considerable degree involved in their horrific activities. That does not mean that a strong 6th/12th axis will make you either mentally deficient or a serial killer, but I think it does point out the psychological implications. Put this conception in the back of your head to observe through innumerable charts and learn before you believe you are entitled to an opinion.

Hopefully you have formulated a better perceive of houses in general and the 12th house in particular. As I brought up previously, no one house is at long last bad or good, each is a mix of experience. Those houses that are not as effortlessly understood and take a little more venture and exercise but they are unquestionably worth the effort. The 12th house is our house of mystery, but mysteries were meant to be examined, explored and solved.
