The Twelve Houses

Twelve areas of experience. Each house governs a concrete domain of existence. They are grouped in three families according to their position relative to the axes of the natal chart.

01Angular Houses

initiative · the chart's axes

The four pillars. These are the houses of direct action: where the natal chart exerts its maximum force.

02Succedent Houses

stabilization · resources

They follow the angles. They consolidate what the angular houses began: here we accumulate, possess, and transform.

03Cadent Houses

adaptation · learning

They precede the angles. These are the houses of transition and mind: learning, adapting, and preparing for the crossing.
