In Vedic astrology, your birth chart is divided into 12 houses, known as Bhavas. Each house represents a different area of life. Understanding these houses is like learning the blueprint of your life.
Here’s a quick overview:
- 1st House – Self, body, personality
- 2nd House – Wealth, speech, family
- 3rd House – Siblings, courage, communication
- 4th House – Home, mother, emotions
- 5th House – Education, creativity, children
- 6th House – Health, enemies, job
- 7th House – Marriage, partnerships
- 8th House – Secrets, death, transformation
- 9th House – Luck, religion, higher knowledge
- 10th House – Career, fame, actions
- 11th House – Gains, desires, elder siblings
- 12th House – Losses, expenses, moksha (spiritual freedom)
Each house is ruled by a sign and influenced by the planets placed there. A strong 10th house means a good career. A weak 7th house may bring relationship delays. A well-placed 9th house brings blessings and fortune.By studying your houses, you can understand where your strengths lie and which areas need attention.
