What does the ruler of a house mean in astrology? Ruler of the natal chart What do the rulers of the houses show in the horoscope.

In this article we will talk about Ibn Ezra’s method for determining the ruler of the natal chart. For now, we will begin to find out why we need the ruler of the natal chart in general, and we will leave this for the next publication.

Let's start, as always, with the translation:

Ptolemy and Dorothea said: we will always search for the planet that isRuler of the born, and we will do so. We know that there are five places of life: the place of the two luminaries, day and night; third place - the conjunction of the luminaries or their opposition, that which precedes birth; the fourth is the ascending degree and the fifth is the Lot of Happiness,<суть>which I explained in the book “Rationales of the Beginning of Wisdom.”

Thus, we give the owner of the House five powers, the owner<дома>Majesty - four, the master of Trigon - three, the master of the Limit - two, and the master of the Face - one. And we will do this with every<планетой>, which has boards in those five locations.

We will also see if<планета>- one of the highest, and she moves away from the Sun in her great power, let’s give her three powers; if in the middle - two; and in the small one - one.

We will also consider houses, because if<планета>is in the first house - she has twelve powers, in the tenth - eleven, in the seventh - ten, in the fourth - nine, in the eleventh - eight, in the fifth - seven, in the second - six, in the eighth - five, in the ninth - four, in the third - three, in the twelfth - two and in the sixth - one.

Give seven strength to the lord of the day and six strength to the lord of the hour. The planet with the most strength will be the Ruler (almuten) *.

end of translation >>

*This is an addition from the Latin version of the book, which is not in the Hebrew.

The planet that rules the entire horoscope is called differently in astrological sources. This is the ruler of the horoscope and the ruler and the ruler and the owner. From Latin texts we came to “almuten figuris” and “dominus genitura”. Ibn Ezra uses the word “Shalit”. The main source of Hebrew vocabulary is undoubtedly the Bible. However, this word does not appear in the Pentateuch and the Prophets. We find it only in the “Scriptures”, and in books written in Aramaic, that is, the word “Shalit” is undoubtedly of Aramaic origin. Only once do we encounter “Shalit” in the Hebrew text of the scroll “Qohelet” (“Ecclesiastes”), and this text:

“There is no powerful man over the spirit of life to hold it, because no authorities over the day of death, and there is no vacation during the battle, so the wickedness of the wicked will not save the wicked in judgment.” (Eccl. 8-8)

Since there are no accidents with Ibn Ezra, it can be assumed that there is some connection between Ibn Ezra’s book and Ecclesiastes. However, I invite you, readers, to find this connection. I'll do the calculations myself.

May experienced astrologers forgive me for presenting the basics. This is for the sake of completeness; besides, repetition has never harmed anyone.

Essential dignities or places of power of planets

Let's start with the so-called“essential” virtues, although I really don’t like the term “essential” itself, “advantages” - even more so. In this case, these are places where one or another planet has rule, that is, it can influence the affairs of that place. To what extent and with what force, including determined by conventional units, points. House (abode) - 5 points, Greatness (exaltation) - 4, Trigon (triplicity) - 3, Limit (term) - 2 and, finally, Face - 1.

Houses (Abodes) and Houses of Greatness (Exaltation) of the planets:

Please note that Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and, God forgive me, Chiron are not included in the harmonious and holistic system of the Western astrological tradition. You can argue for a long time why this happened, but all this is fruitless. You must be clearly aware that using Uranus and others like it, you are using a completely different astrological model, in which houses, aspects, etc., which characterize the Western tradition, are unlikely to work.

Trigons according to Dorothea of ​​Sidon:

Egyptian Limits (therms):

It is very easy to calculate which Limit a particular planet falls into. First you need to understand what to call this or that degree of the Zodiac. For example, 12*03 Capricorn is the thirteenth degree of Capricorn, 29*05 Aries is the thirtieth degree of Aries, and 00*01 Taurus is the first degree of Taurus. If the planet falls in 24*55 Sagittarius, we find the sign of Sagittarius in the table of Limits and begin to add degrees from left to right until we reach the desired interval. 12+5 = 17+4 = 21+5 = 26, and we need 25 Sagittarius. So this is Saturn's Limit.

Faces (Faces):

Accidental virtues

Next come the so-called “accidental” virtues of the planets. Again, the term is very unfortunate, but there is no space in this article to discuss the problem in detail. We will only limit ourselves to understanding that essence is the right to control, and accident is the ability to realize this right. This opportunity is given by the position of the planet in the house, relative to the Sun and time management.

Position of the higher planets relative to the Sun

The description begins from the merger of the planet with the Sun. Confluence is the position in the heart of the Sun or in the Kazimi. Next, the planet begins its movement to the east, moving away from the Sun. This is an astrological formulation. In fact, this Sun is moving away from the planet:

    Merger, Kazimi up to 17 minutes away from the Sun.

    From 17 minutes to 6 degrees (Mars to 10) the planet is burned. She has no strength.

    From 6 to 15 degrees (Mars to 18) the planet is in the rays of the Sun. A small part of her strength returns to her.

    Exit from under the rays. The planet has half the strength and is called “Strong Eastern”

    When a planet reaches 60 degrees to the Sun (sextile) it is at the peak of its power.

    After passing the sextile to the Sun, the eastern power begins to decrease.

    When a planet is in its first station, which is 120 to the Sun, it has no power.

    The planet begins to move backwards and the planet has no power at all.

    From opposition to the Sun to the second station, the strength gradually increases.

    At the second stop, all the strength returned.

    The planet begins its westerly movement. When the planet reaches a square to the Sun, the strength will decrease slightly.

    From a square to a sextile to the Sun, the strength will decrease until only a third of the planet's strength remains.

    When the planet comes under the sun's rays, its power will completely dry up.

Let's return to the calculation of the ruler of the natal chart. We need to find when the highest planet, being in the eastern position, will receive 1 point, when - 2 and when -3. Ibn Ezra does not give clear boundaries. Therefore, I propose the following formula.

Low strength, 1 point: 6 to 12 and 110 to 120

Average strength, 2 points: from 12 to 40 and from 80 to 110

Great strength, 3 points: from 40 to 80

A house is a certain section of the ecliptic, a sector. There are twelve of these sectors in total. Each house is associated with a specific zodiac sign. Each sector is divided into three equal parts. And each part carries its own information. In some Hindu schools of astrology, the number of houses does not correspond to the number of zodiac signs: there may be thirteen or twenty-eight.

1st House - house of Aries (ruler Mars)

It speaks of a person’s desire to fully realize the qualities inherent in him, to become a bright, active person. This house also determines the needs and requests of a person. If there are many planets in the first house, then this indicates a person’s egocentrism or a not very strong personal position. The first part of the house characterizes the most striking personality traits. The second indicates physical characteristics and habits, the third speaks about a person’s talents, his innate abilities and the possibility of their implementation.

2nd House - House of Taurus (ruler Venus)

Indicates our connection with the Earth, the material world, including money, ways of earning it, spending and losses, property and accumulation. The second house carries all the information about what hinders the development of personality, and in some cases talks about the earthly plane of human existence. If in a person’s horoscope the second house is occupied by planets, then everything in his life will be stable, or his attention will be focused primarily on material problems. The first third of the house gives information about a person’s material world, about his property and food. A person who eats a lot has Jupiter at the beginning of his house, the one who is not subject to gluttony has Saturn. This part of the house warns a person against the seduction of money. The second third of the house indicates the ways in which a person will earn money. The third determines business partners, contacts, debts.

3rd House - house of Gemini (ruler Mercury)

Carries information about a person’s close contacts, immediate relatives, as well as relationships with friends. The third house is often saturated with a large number of planets for writers and journalists. In addition, this house indicates the person’s upcoming trips. The first third of the house provides information about all human movements, including even short trips. The second talks about upbringing, about what kind of initial training a person should undergo (for example, school, college). The third part of the house determines a person’s relationship with relatives, but not with parents. If there are many planets in this third, then all the person’s attention will be given to relatives, but not to friends.

4th House - house of Cancer (ruler Moon)

This house determines the original traditions of a person, everything that is contained in it that is deep, intimate, and genetic. A person whose house is heavily populated by planets may be a clairvoyant, or may have the ability to “look” into the past. The fourth house also indicates a connection with parents, attachment to one’s own home, to relatives, it also gives information about the person’s original environment. The death of a person is often determined by the fourth house. The first third of the house determines the immediate existence of a person, traditions, place of residence, homeland, home. Based on this third, you can immediately predict the loss of your home, homeland, and separation from your roots. The second third of the house gives information about the attitude towards parents and authorities. It also determines the memory of ancestors. The third part points to a person’s retrospectives, that is, to events of the past that remind of oneself.

5th House - Leo's house (ruler Sun)

Heavily filled with planets, this house promises a royal life for the person. This is the home of self-determination, freedom and creativity. In addition, he gives information about the thread that connects him with his offspring, about the memory that he will leave in them. The first third of the house speaks of the gifts of fortune and the creative foundations of a person, as well as all the entertainment and pleasures that he can receive in life. The second part of a person correlates with a person’s love life; it determines the number of amorous connections and the intensity of emotional life. The third part gives information about children, about the memory they have after the person’s departure.

6th House – Virgo (ruler Mercury)

This house is material: it determines everything that we submit to in life, indicates our work, everyday events that will distract and slow down your spiritual development. The sixth house is associated with problems of our health, with our body. He also informs us about our superiors. The first third of the house provides us with information about superiors and relationships with them. The second third indicates health, the physical cycles of the body, and the diet that the person will use. If you and I determined the general nutrition according to the second house, then those diets and voluntary hunger strikes that a person goes on are determined precisely according to the 6th house of the horoscope. By the way, the second third of this house is usually occupied by planets for people whose attention is always focused on the health of others, that is, doctors. But many planets in this part are observed among those people whose subordination to internal discipline is associated with the type of their activity, for example, among monks, as well as among those who consciously discipline themselves, limiting the manifestation of many human weaknesses. The third part of the sixth house informs about colleagues, how relationships develop with them, about a person’s place of work, about various career moves, as well as about those changes that are possible in the psychological climate of the team, about the conflicts that await a person in his place work.

7th House - house of Libra (ruler Venus)

This house determines a person’s relationship with the world, with the environment, with his spouse. With the help of the seventh house, you can determine who exactly a person will choose as his wife. This house gives information about a person's double. You probably know that the Pythogorians considered man to be a bisexual creature. And only then there was a division into individuals: male and female. The seventh house can be used to judge a person’s relationship with the world, the environment, and society. The seventh house is a scale, on one side of which is a person and his opinion, and on the other - people’s opinions about him. And the cups must be balanced. It is extremely important for a person how he is perceived in society. For people in whose horoscopes this house is heavily occupied by planets, the opportunity to express themselves is inextricably linked with society, without which they cannot succeed as individuals. The 1st third of the house gives information about marriage partners, the number of marriages, and family relationships. The 2nd third indicates a person’s social activities, all his business and other contacts. 3rd third - talks about opponents, as well as about lawsuits or public condemnation that threaten him.

8th House - house of Scorpio (ruler Pluto, Mars)

Western astrologers consider this house to be the house of death. But I believe that the sixth house indicates the death of a person. The eighth house informs us about extreme situations in life. If many planets are concentrated in a house, then this immediately puts a person in extreme conditions that give rise to pessimism in him. The eighth house of the horoscope indicates that a person’s life will take place in difficult conditions, that his work will be associated with a risk to life. For example, pilots, firefighters, and police officers usually have many planets in the eighth house. Some astrologers tend to consider the eighth house as the house of inheritance. They believe that this house indicates the inheritance that a person will receive after the death of other people. I do not fully share this point of view, believing that the eighth house indicates not so much a material inheritance as a spiritual one. For example, about a library inherited, or about other things, although materialized, but addressed primarily to the human soul. The 1st part informs about extreme conditions, situations in human life, disasters and fatal accidents. The 2nd part contains information about the problems that arise around a person, about extreme situations around him, about the illness of people close to him. The 3rd part talks about inheritance after someone's death, as well as parting words received from mentors and teachers.

9th House - Sagittarius house (ruler Jupiter)

It determines a person’s religious ideas and the beliefs to which he comes in life. The cluster of planets in this house is most often found among teachers, preachers, and missionaries. This house tells about a person’s travels, a change of place of residence, significant changes in life, and changes in his life plans. The 1st part of the house carries information about teaching and one’s own training, about obtaining in-depth information. The 2nd part of the house indicates travel and movement of a person. The 3rd informs about religion, beliefs, and a person’s life principles.

10th House - house of Capricorn (ruler Saturn)

This house indicates the realization of the goals that we set for ourselves, our professional achievements, and success in our career. The accumulation of planets in this house means that what a person strives for will certainly become a reality. The 1st part of the house directly testifies to the glory of a person, the honor and respect that he has earned, the goal that a person has set for himself and which he has achieved. The 2nd third of the house gives information about a person’s career, his social status, and social achievements. The 3rd third talks about what the person has achieved in his professional field, about the degree of his professional skill.

11th House - house of Aquarius (ruler Uranus, Saturn)

Some astrologers call this house the house of testing, because from it one can judge what a person gives to people, the good deeds that he does. The 11th house determines our attitude towards friends, the help we provide them. In addition, he points to plans and projects aimed at improving our existence. And this house also speaks of a person’s ability to adapt to changing environmental conditions. This is the house of Aquarius, and under this sign, as a rule, people with developed creativity are born. If there are many planets in this house, then this indicates that the person will become a writer, composer, artist. The 1st third of the house indicates a person’s debts, that
and to whom he must give, for all the good deeds that he does. The 2nd part of the house gives information about a person’s friends, about his like-minded people. The 3rd part talks about plans, projects, how a person reacts to changing environmental conditions, how he perceives new things in social life, how he adjusts his destiny in accordance with the changes that are taking place.

12th House - house of Pisces (ruler Neptune, Jupiter)

This house determines everything secret, hidden, mystical that is in a person’s life, all those secrets that he carefully guards. This house talks about everything that fetters a person in his actions, that forces him to forcibly perform some actions that he would not have done voluntarily. In short, the 12th House is the house of mystery. The 1st third indicates the secrets of a person, his hidden life. This third speaks of the illusory nature of existence, characteristic of people of the Pisces sign. Part 2 informs about human isolation, including all its forms: prison, hospital, disruption of contacts with other people. The 3rd part talks about the inner life of a person, about what result he will come to at the end of his life.

On the one hand, everyone knows which planet rules which zodiac sign. On the other hand, each astrological school considers this issue in its own way. Naturally, I have my own opinion on this matter.

But first, let’s consider the question of where the Russian land came from in the first place and where the idea of ​​which planet rules and which sign came from.

Before the opening of the so-called The “telescopic” or higher planets had one ruler for each sign of the Zodiac.

First, we determined which signs govern the Luminaries - the Moon and the Sun. The Moon rules Cancer, and the Sun rules Leo. These signs were placed in the center. Then it turned out that there were 10 signs of the Zodiac, and 5 planets. This determined how control was distributed between them.

The Moon is the fastest planet, and it and the Sun are in the center. Next, we divide the remaining planets according to their average speed of movement per day. We get the following series: Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn.

Following the central signs of the Moon and Sun are Virgo and Gemini. They are ruled by Mercury, because... it is the fastest remaining planet. Additionally, Mercury moves fastest in these two signs.

Next come Libra and Taurus, and in terms of speed of movement - Venus. Accordingly, she is the ruler of these two signs. Well, it moves faster in them.

The next signs are Sagittarius and Pisces, and the planet is Jupiter.

The list is completed by Capricorn and Aquarius, the planet is Saturn.

For many centuries, astrologers used this system, and it suited them. But then the telescope was invented and Uranus was discovered. Uranus is a planet, which means it must rule some sign of the Zodiac. He was made co-ruler of Saturn in the signs of Aquarius and Capricorn.

The same thing happened when Neptune was discovered. He was made co-ruler of Jupiter in the signs of Pisces and Sagittarius.

Then Pluto was discovered and made co-ruler of Mars in the signs of Aries and Scorpio.

Then Chiron was discovered, and they decided to make him co-ruler of Venus in the signs of Taurus and Libra. But nothing came of it, because... Chiron is not a planet, but a planetoid, i.e. it's an asteroid, just a very large one. It is believed that this is an asteroid that has “lagged behind” some comet, which is why it has an elongated orbit. In my opinion, Chiron has much more properties as an asteroid than as a planet. Thus, Chiron has exaltation (Sagittarius), but no signs of control. Its place is between planets and asteroids, because It is still not an asteroid, but also not a planet, but a planetoid.

Then Proserpine was discovered. Those astrologers who classify Chiron as a planet gave her control over Virgo and Gemini. But, if Chiron is not a planet and does not control signs, then Proserpina becomes the co-ruler of Venus in the signs of Taurus and Libra. And then it turns out that there must be another planet, the “higher octave” of Mercury, which together with it will take control of Gemini and Virgo. In fact, even Proserpina has not yet been discovered as a celestial body. Honestly, I don't know where her ephemeris came from, but it works. Proserpina is responsible for genetic engineering and genetic modeling. I think that Proserpina is a favorable planet, because... Thanks to IVF, many childless couples were able to have children. It is believed that Proserpina is a transpluto, i.e. a planet whose orbit lies beyond the orbit of Pluto. There, beyond the orbit of Pluto, there are a lot of different celestial bodies that do not belong to the Solar System. Among them may be Proserpina, the mythical Isis, and many other transplutons. Surely there is a place there for the last planet, which they are in no hurry to “discover” because Chiron was successfully introduced in its place... or Proserpina, changing places with Chiron.

Then different astrological schools appeared, and they decided to systematize the issue of the rulers of the Zodiac signs in their own way. Because, from their point of view, it is not an order when two planets rule one sign at once. There are 12 signs, there are also 12 planets, for a total of one planet per sign. The standard for them in this regard is Leo and Cancer, which actually have one ruler each.

In some astrological schools, only one planet was considered the ruler of each sign. In others there are two, but with the difference of night or day birth, and retrograde. True, the following question arises: what if the planet is stationary? This happens rarely, only a few days a year, but it happens. In general, there are as many opinions as there are schools. But I do not belong to any school because I have my own opinion on this matter, different from them, and do not want to accept the opinion of any of the schools.

I came to the conclusion that each zodiac sign (except Cancer and Leo) has a ruler and co-ruler. The ruler is the household planet, and the co-ruler is the higher planet. They are distributed accordingly as follows:

Cancer is the ruler of the Moon, there is no co-ruler.
Leo is the ruler of the Sun, there is no co-ruler.
Gemini and Virgo - ruler Mercury, co-ruler not yet revealed.
Taurus and Libra - ruler Venus, co-ruler Proserpine (but she is still weakly active, so she can not be taken into account).
Aries and Scorpio - ruler Mars, co-ruler Pluto.
Pisces and Sagittarius - ruler Jupiter, co-ruler Neptune.
Aquarius and Capricorn - ruler Saturn, co-ruler Uranus.

How do these planets work? In my opinion, the influence of the ruler and co-ruler is distributed in the same way as the load on the right and left hands of a right-handed person. The right hand is the ruler, the left is the co-ruler. A person performs most actions with his right hand, but if suddenly for some reason it fails, then he will begin to perform the same actions with his left hand. You can change the load by learning to use your left hand in the same way as your right. In the same way, the life of the native is influenced by the lord and co-ruler in the sphere of the house they rule.

The manager acts stronger and more often, but if suddenly for some reason he is inactive, the action of the co-manager is activated instead. Moreover, if in the natal the ruler is damaged, and the native has various problems in life, then with appropriate training the qualities of a co-ruler can be developed. This can be compared to when a left-hander is taught to write with his right hand because everyone writes that way, or when a right-hander, wanting to develop his creative abilities, learns to write with his left hand.

Of course, the manager acts more powerfully. But this does not diminish the importance of the co-manager. There are cases in life when it is necessary to act with both hands at once - in the same way, a ruler and a co-ruler can act simultaneously.

The question arises: how to determine which person will have a stronger ruler, whose co-ruler will act stronger, and who will have them together, and in what situations. So: it is impossible to determine this at this stage! Because which of the planets will become leading and when depends on various reasons, upbringing and on how the person himself lives and what qualities of this or that planet he is accustomed to relying on in life. What is more developed in him will act. But at the same time, each person can develop those qualities of the planet that he needs, constantly acting in the appropriate area. This is called working out the planet.

The special beauty is that you can work out those qualities of the planet that are closest and most pleasant to you, and at the same time receive dividends on the properties of the same planet in several areas at once that were not worked out, but were really necessary.

The ascendant in the natal chart, like any other astrological house, has its own ruler. This ruler is considered to be the planet ruling the sign of the ascendant. For example, if the ascendant is in the sign of Capricorn, then its ruler will be Saturn. The ruler is considered to be the main ruler of the chart, the entire horoscope.

Table: sign of the Ascendant and its rulers:

Ascendant sign Senior Manager Junior Manager HOUSE

Taurus Venus II
Twins Mercury III
Cancer Moon IV
a lion Sun V
Virgo Mercury VI
Scales Venus VII
Scorpion Pluto Mars VIII
Sagittarius Jupiter Neptune IX
Capricorn Saturn Uranus X
Aquarius Uranus Saturn XI
Fish Neptune Jupiter XII

Using the table, we have determined the ruler of the ascendant, but in addition to this, it is also necessary to analyze the strength of the ruler. If he is in monastery or exaltation, such a person will feel more confident in life. If the planet is in exile or decline, this indicates that the person will have to overcome more difficulties.

Card Ruler Planet Power

The relationship of the planet of the ruler with the signs of the zodiac changes the energy of the planet, and thus imposes its own filter. For example, if the ruler is in the monastery, then we are dealing with the pure energy of the planet without impurities or additives.

Planet in the monastery- shows pure available qualities. Innate talent, a person does not make any effort, everything is given to him with ease in the area for which the planet is responsible.

Planet in exaltation- indicates a certain specific talent; it manifests itself more narrowly than the planet in the monastery. This is a good guideline for choosing a profession, what you should strive for.

Planet in exile- indicates a lack of some qualities in the area for which this planet is responsible. The likelihood of problems occurring. This is the lowest energy on the planet.

Planet in fall- shows the lack of qualities in a narrower sphere for which the planet is responsible. It is the opposite of exaltation.

The weakness of a planet that is debilitated or expelled is due to the incompatible nature of the sign, the energy of the planet is blocked and cannot be projected. Hence the problems in the sphere of human life, everything is difficult, you need to make titanic efforts, a person often steps on the same rake.

What does a planet mean - significator, house ruler

The significator ($) of the house is called the mundane ruler. This planet is the ruler of the sign corresponding to a given house.

The significator planet (ruler of the house) indicates what a person’s abilities are in realizing his capabilities in a certain field of activity.

In other words, the significator indicates a person’s potential in revealing various aspects of his activity. In this case, the principle of this planet is taken into account.

The planet that rules a house has a characteristic influence on the events occurring in it, which manifests itself through the psychological and personal characteristics of a person, even if the house is not occupied by any planet in his natal chart.

Each house has a symbolic house ruler, who, starting with Aries, has the same number as the given house.

For example, the symbolic ruler of the first house is Aries, the second is Taurus, etc.

What information do planets - house rulers - carry?

For example, Venus in Aries indicates that a person will be active in the area of ​​emotional self-expression.

In the fifth house, Venus in Aries indicates the manifestation of emotional pressure in the field of creativity and entertainment, perhaps a penchant for the acting profession.

However, Venus in Aries in the seventh house indicates a focus of the same energy in interpersonal interactions, which can result in lively or tumultuous relationships with a spouse, lover, friends or partners.

House lords - significators Mars, Venus, Mercury

For example, Mars(I house) gives information about the disclosure of personality, in what areas this is possible.

If Mars is in the X house, then the implementation of the program is a career, goal, etc. In addition, Mars represents extreme situations and all cases of energy consumption and overexpenditure.

Venus– significator of the 2nd house – will give information about financial situation, earnings, attachment to the material world.

Mercury– significator of the 3rd house – will indicate the main sphere of communications. If Mercury is in the X house, this means that communications will help achieve the goal.

House rulers - significators Moon, Sun, Proserpina, Chiron, Pluto

Moon– significator of the IV house – will determine home and family problems.

Sun as a significator of the 5th house makes it possible to judge a person’s creative realization, problems with children and the ability to relax and have fun.

Proserpina– significator of the VI house – will indicate problems related to work and health.

Chiron and Venus - significators of the 7th house - determine our attitude to social processes, our ability to cooperate, our attitude towards marriage and the possibility of fulfillment in marital relations.

Pluto– significator of the 8th house – will indicate the ability for self-change, transformation, and areas of life where disasters can occur.

House rulers - significators Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune

Jupiter– significator of the 9th house – determines social activity, education, travel, expansion of connections.

Saturn– significator of the X house – will determine where individual elevation and career are possible.

Uranus– significator of the 11th house – will indicate an area where there is an opportunity to be original, it will determine our friends and the ability to think and cooperate more broadly, globally.

Neptune as a significator of the 12th house it will indicate spiritual aspirations, the ability for intuition and higher love, the ability to reveal secrets, etc.

When analyzing house lords - significators, you should remember:

  1. if the significator planet is in its own house, then it will fulfill all its semantic load, reveal the house and the affairs that are connected with it;
  2. if the planet is a significator in the house of its exaltation, then it will reveal the problems of the house with brilliance (Mars in the X house);
  3. if the significator planet is in the house of its exile, then the possibilities in the affairs of the house and its importance are reduced (Venus in the 1st house);
  4. if the significator is in the house of its fall (Venus in the VI house), then this also reduces the possibility of full realization in the affairs of the house;
  5. The cosmic status of the significator is important, since the relationship between planet and sign is a stable quality.

Therefore, the significator determines a person’s psychological attitude to the problems of life related to the home, that is, it is more connected with the inner essence. It shows why in a particular area of ​​life a person acts or cannot act in a certain way.

House Ruler - Almuten

This is the true ruler, the planet that rules the sign that happens to be in a given house. Almuten provides information about how problems at home can be implemented, what a person will encounter when implementing the program, and where his efforts will be directed. Almuten shows objective events related to the affairs of the house.

By the rulers one can judge what a person’s life will be like. For every birth chart, this information is required and extremely important. This is a person’s path - the main situational grid of life and all the events associated with it.

Almuten definition

  1. For angular houses (I IV VII X), Almuten is the ruler of the sign on the cusp of the house. If two signs enter a house, one partially and the other almost completely (for example, ASC – 28° Libra), then there will be two Almutens. But the cusp sign has preference.
  2. For median and cadent houses, Almuten will be the planet that rules the sign that is larger in extent.
  3. Moreover, if the signs are equal, then there will be two Almutens, but preference is given to the first.
  4. If the signs are not equal (but not more than 2 times), then there are two Almutens in the house, but the main one is the ruler of the larger sign.
  5. If there is a prisoner sign in an angular house, then its ruler will be the free ruler of the house. The planet will manifest itself depending on the will of the person. If he works on it, it will show the house more clearly. If the principle of the planet is not worked out, then it will manifest itself spontaneously or not at all.
  6. In the middle and cadent house, the imprisoned sign does not have a free ruler. This planet needs more work; without significant effort it will not manifest itself.
  7. If a house has two rulers and there is a good aspect between them, then this promises a favorable solution to matters for which the house is responsible.
  8. For example, the Ascendant is at 28° Libra, most of the 1st house is occupied by Scorpio. We have two rulers - Venus and Pluto, in the chart between them there is a trigonal aspect, which means there is every opportunity for the realization of personality through the principles of Venus and Pluto. Where this realization is possible will be shown by the position of Venus and Pluto, as well as Mars, the significator of the 1st House.
  9. If the angle between the Ascendant and the Midpoint is not small, then it may turn out that two houses fall in the same sign.

Then the two houses will have one ruler. For example, XI and XII are located in Sagittarius, with the cusps of these houses in the named sign. In other words, Sagittarius works on 2 houses, and its ruler Jupiter rules both houses. At the same time, the border between houses is erased, and information is combined.

If Jupiter is in the XII house, then it forms a person who is little influenced by society. Such a person has no more than one friend (Jupiter also rules the 11th house). If there is one ruler for two houses, a successful solution to the question of which of them is more important is achieved by combining the houses into trines.

In this case, you need to determine in which trine Almuten. If he is in the same trine as his house, then it means that he rules predominantly this house.

What Almuten warns about

They show in which third of the house the life problems associated with it will be most significant.

Each house contains information for 84 years (Uranus cycle). Each Almuten of a third is a planet of one third of life - 28 years.

  • Almuten 1/3 is the planet-ruler of the sign on the cusp of the house.
  • Almuten 2/3 is the ruler of the sign located in the center of the house (if there is one sign in the house, then the planet that rules the sign next in this element is taken).

For example, in the V House Taurus, no other signs are included in the V House.

This means that Almuten 1/3 is Venus, 2/3 is Proserpina, 3/3 is Saturn.

  • Almuten 3/3 is the planet-ruler of the sign next in trine from the cusp.

If Gemini is on the cusp and Cancer is in the center of the house, then Almuten 1/3 is Mercury, 2/3 is Moon, 3/3 is Chiron.

Almuten of the third indicates objective events regarding problems at home that will be associated with the corresponding period of life.

When interpreting a horoscope, it should be remembered that the significators of houses and their thirds are the same for all horoscopes.

Almutens are individual for each home.

Each house is deciphered according to the following scheme:

If there is a connection between Almuten, Significator, Elevator or Subdispositor, then problems at home are significant in a person’s life. The connection is determined by aspects and reception. It is most important if the real ruler of the house Almuten and the Significator, Almuten and Elevator are included in the stellium or configuration, even if they are in different houses.

Determining the strength of a house

Produced using an aphetic table. In this case, the strength and coefficient are taken into account:

  1. Almutena – $
  2. Significator – $
  3. Elevator – ^
  4. All planets in the house
  5. Subdispositor Z
  6. Subdispositors of the Wheel of Fortune, the Cross of Fate and the most important lots.

For a cusp planet, the coefficient is divided in half. Next, you need to write down planets with positive and negative coefficients separately in a column.

Then add up, as a result we get the final score and coefficient for each house. If a planet is both a Significator and an Almuten, an Elevator and a Significator, then its score must be doubled.

In this way, we determine in general what the trends at home, that is, in some area of ​​life, will be - positive or negative.
