In the last part we discussed about the placement of different Zodiac signs in different houses and the method to find out the approximate position of Sun in a house from the time of birth.
In this post, we will discuss about the meaning of different house.
If you haven’t read the first part of this discussion then I recommend you to read that first for better understanding of this topic.
The 1st house is referred as “Ascendant” and it is present in the eastern horizon at the time of birth.
The 7th house is referred as “Descendant” and it is present in the western horizon at the time of birth.
The 10th house is referred as “Mid-heaven Coeli (Latin for “Top of the sky”) or “M.C” and it is present above the head at the time of birth.
The 4th house is referred as “Imum Coeli (Latin for “Bottom of the sky”)” or, “I.C” and it is present above the head in the other hemi-sphere of earth at the time of birth.
If we see the image (fig-2) then, it clearly shows that the six houses are below the ground and the rest six present above the ground.
This has a very deep meaning; the six houses that are below the ground represent things that deal with our emotions, feelings and things that are very personal whereas, the 6 houses that are above the ground represent things that somehow related to the external world and exposure.The 7th house is referred as “Descendant” and it is present in the western horizon at the time of birth.
