Taking the House Tour

Every birth chart embraces all twelve houses —no more, no less. In most charts, one or two of those houses prove to be especially important thanks to the presence of several planets. The more planets you find squeezed into a house, the more important the matters of that house are likely to be. Table 12-1 lists the twelve houses along with the areas of life that they cover. 

First house Your appearance and apparent disposition 

Third house Communication, writing, short journeys, brothers and sisters 

Fourth house Home, roots, one parent, circumstances at the end of life 

Fifth house Romance, children, creativity, entertainment
