The 12 Natal Houses
At that exact moment, you were born, the zodiac sign passing through the horizon has a
major impact on you, and some people aren’t aware of that. The “picture” of the sky at that
exact moment will impact you as a person and is a great indicator of how several sectors of
your life will go.
We’ve created a brief explanation of all the natal houses, we hope that the next time you
look at your natal chart or read someone else that you’ll be able to do so. Below each
explanation, we provide examples so that you can relate as well. Please let us know in the
comments what you think so far.
1 st House ME & MY BODY

it is the first house.

your earned income and possessions. This also shows how you react with money, if you earn

money a lot and that just like Capricorn you are very disciplined with money and your
income comes through hard work (since Saturn is in this house).

that if all of you usually played outdoors, sports activities this was a good relationship with
the lack of activity you were all mostly at war.

and whether you will be traveling long distances or not.
Example: If Leo was in this house, it’d mean that long-distance travel would be done through
royalty or fame. Perhaps you are very well known at your job and you need to travel for
work purposes. Also since Leo is ruled by the sun, and the sun (who also is the father in
someone’s chart) this would mean that this person values the father’s belief system.

This House, also known and Mid-heaven, is a great indicator of your career, what is it that
you should be doing professionally, your public status, through this house you can also have
a great idea on the energy of the mother figure.

everyone understands).

smartest in your group of friends.
12 th House – Sacrificial Service, Behind the scene, prison, and repressions
PISCES
This house shows what you most fear, the unconscious, and activities going on behind the
scenes. This is a great representation of what it is that you have to detach from in this
lifetime. Another interesting fact is that this house is also a great indicator of how the person
sleeps as well.
Example:
If Virgo is in this house, it represents a successful person, however since the person’s fear is
unpleasing people and serving others, other people can take credit for the person’s hard
work.
