About the Astrological Houses
The astrological mandala, better known as the Astrological Chart, is divided into twelve parts, resembling the design of a pizza. These parts, not always the same size, are the Astrological Houses, which represent the several areas of our lives and serve as a laboratory for our experiences.
This zodiacal wheel is formed from the calculation of each person’s birth chart, considering day, time, and place. The houses never change their position and speak about the way we react to the various aspects of life, how we channel our energy, and the points we need to develop along our journey, according to the planets and signs present in them.
It is worth remembering that all Astrological Houses are important, even the so-called “empty Houses” – those without any planets. They always receive the influence of the signs, which, in turn, are ruled by planets, emanating their energy through them.
