The Twelve Houses


Recap: Traditionally, astrologers have divided the chart
wheel and space around the birthplace into twelve pie-
shaped sections, each taking up roughly 1/12th of the
zodiac circle; each section is about 30 degrees. We
have said something about the four main directions and
the various halves of the chart, such as what they might
mean for those born with a lot of planets in any
particular section. Dividing the chart space/circle into
twelve parts is just a further refinement, and each of
these twelve sections has a particular meaning,
especially if you have certain planets sitting in a specific
house.


We will get to this a little later on. Right now, we are just
pointing out that the entire heavens surrounding the
birth place is divided into twelve sections plotted on a
circle or a wheel, so that we can easily see what planets
or points (roughly speaking) are in any given geographic
