The First House
Aries Ruled
"Ascendant"
Self, identity, personality, ego, physicality and demeanor.
"The 1st house is all about your ego. And that is why your Ascendant is here, it rules over your 1st house. It is your personality and it is your identity. If you have planets in this house, it is basically your ego identifying with these planets." - Alyssa
The Second House
Taurus Ruled
Security, finances, money, greed, material things, possesions and soft stuff.
"The 2nd house is the candy house. Any planets here will kind of show you how secure your life is... and the sign that rules over it in your chart, becomes how your security was expressed to you as you were growing up." - Alyssa
The Third House
Gemini Ruled
Communication, short trips, learning, learning disabilities, achivements, siblings, interaction.
"This is communication. The house of communication. 1st house being your ego, 2nd house with your sense of security, and now in the 3rd house you learn how to talk." - Alyssa
The Fourth House
Cancer Ruled
"Imum Coeli/IC"
Home, family, heredity, ancestry, childhood, emotions, past and future homes.
"You could be a big homebody, if you have a lot of planets here. The sign rulling over this house in your chart, kind of tells you the way that you always felt about your home, and the way that you kind of use your home." - Alyssa
The Fifth House
Leo Ruled
Love, pleasure, children, friendships, sex, self-fulfillment, leisure, creations.
"The 5th house is the party house, and everybody should know about the party house. If you Sun is here, normally you were the spoiled favorite child. It also represents what kind of kids you are gonna have! This is the place where you give birth to something creatively." - Alyssa
The Sixth House
Virgo Ruled
Work, service, routine, health, subordinates, minor illness, pets and perfectionism.
"The 6th house is day-to-day shit... boring routines. This is also your health, having Venus here can be great, because you can pretty much maintain good health. Having Pluto here might actually be really bad for your health. Are you able to be in a 9-5 job, or do you hate that, would you go insane? All of that stuff can be found in your 6th house, because it's work, health and service." - Alyssa
The Seventh House
Libra Ruled
"Descendant"
Partnerships, marriage, divorce, love, loneliness, contracts, unions, open enemies.
"If you have a lot of planets in the 7th house, you have a tendency to find your identity in somebody else. This house is all about other people, having your Sun here is therefor considered unfortunate.. because your identity is found in the way other people are and the people you surround yourself with." - Alyssa
The Eight House
Scorpio Ruled
Death, taxes, regeneration, investments, sexuality, occult, other people's $$$.
"The 8th house is sex, but I have already said the 5th house is sex. But the 5th house is sex in the way of pleasureble fun sex, the 8th house is deep sex that you take very seriously and it can also be sexual issues. Mediums are often found in this house (a Necromancer!). Somebody who has a very strong connection to death. The 8th house is a lot like jail, you feel like you are almost behind bars, if you have many planets in the 8th." - Alyssa
The Ninth House
Sagittarius Ruled
Foreign travel, higher education, higher power, overactive intelligence, philosophy.
"9th house people can be kind of arrogant. 9th house people are very open-minded and they like to know everything. They can be know-it-alls in that way. But they like to learn, by travelling and going to collage and so on." - Alyssa
The Tenth House
Capricorn Ruled
"Medium Coeli/MC"
"Midheaven"
Public image, career, professional destiny, karmic payments, fame and notoriety.
"Now you are in your career. It's your public image and persona. It's what you project to the world." - Alyssa
The Eleventh House
Aquarius Ruled
Friends, networking, step children, social groups/organizations, cults and churches, humanitarianism.
"The 11th house rules over the internet, but it is not your internet/public persona like the 10th house. The 11th is about networking, how good are you with networking? I either have a big group of friends or a small group of friends, I spend all my time on the internet, or I like to be outside, that is 11th house stuff. " - Alyssa
The Twelfth House
Pisces Ruled
Undoing, spirituality, subconcious, secrets, hidden enemies, illness, unrest and psychic intuition.
"The house of self-undoing. People have already asked me to be really nice to those with their 12th house stuff. Having something in the 12th house, means that it is a karmic thing of maybe having to re-learn the same issue over and over again. Sucess scare 12th house people. A fear of being heard and being seen. That is why it is this self-undoing." - Alyssa
