Note: The position of your zodiac sign, above or below the horizon, when you were born is the key to understanding the Zodiac Houses.

Imagine the sky, above and below the horizon, divided into twelve equal parts. Each of these divisions represents a house of the zodiac and is a lens, so to speak, through which your zodiac sign should be viewed. (See chart above)


The twelve houses of the Zodiac

This SkyChart describes the changing position of the astrological houses in relation to the earth's horizon. As your sign moves above the horizon

  • The outer circle shows the classic position of the zodiac signs

  • The middle circle represents the ruling planet of each of the zodiac signs.

  • The inner circle is the astrological house associated with the zodiac sign and the ruling planet of the observer. (i.e. you)

  • Everything shown above the horizon is the positive part of your life. This is the part of you that connects with the world in a positive way. These zodiac elements bring an upward motion to activities. This is the Yang in Chinese astrology.

    What lies below the horizon is the negative part of your life. Here is where your alter ego resides. The dark side of the soul balances the light with a downward pressure. This is the Yin in Chinese astrology.
