Though many people still consider astrology as a fun topic for conversation, its reputation is being built over centuries and millennia of studies and experience.

Since ancient times, people have noticed the influence of the stars and planets on our lives, and the benefits of their interpretations. This is why they formed the study of the stars and named it astrology.

Many monarchs and influential people all over the world still rely on accurate astrology predictions concerning important people and predicting events of world-wide importance.

Astrology analyzes the interactions between the planets at a certain moment of time, as well as their placements in signs of the zodiac and the houses of the natal chart created for that specific moment.

These positions give the astrologer much information about a person or about events.

Someone who is an experienced astrologer can be very accurate in their predictions. They can foretell future events, as well as discover personality traits, interests, beliefs, or goals of a person.

Astrology can determine outcomes of relationships and situations, and give advice on what decisions to make in certain situations.

The basic interpretation is done by analyzing the placements of planets in signs, houses of the natal chart, their aspects, the rulers of the houses and the chart itself, etc.

Planets in houses – individual charts and synastry meaning

The beginning of the astrology interpretation is making a natal chart; this chart is a visual image of the planetary positions for the moment for which the chart is made.

This moment is in most cases the moment of someone’s birth. The data used for calculating a natal chart is the date, exact hour, and place.

After creation of astrology computer programs, these calculations last only seconds, but in earlier times, this was a time consuming work, which required knowledge and experience. The interpretation of the chart should be done by an experienced astrologer.

The natal chart has 12 houses and they all rule different parts of our life; by analyzing the house, its ruler and the planets inside, the astrologer can find out a lot about the person, the events concerning this house, and many other details.

The houses with planets are often the most important, because they give additional insight about the matter ruled by that house, and they reveal where the focus of intention is. The planets inside a house influence its areas of rulership with their meaning.

The 12 houses give information about someone’s personality, beliefs, interests, focus of attention, profession, education, work, career, coworkers, hobbies, skills, talents, parents, ancestors, family members, siblings, children, neighbors, surroundings, home, travel, partners, relationships, social life, friends, communication skills, enemies, finances, group memberships, physical condition, health, etc.

Synastry is a part of astrology which analyzes relationships and their nature and potential. The interpretation in synastry is made by comparing the natal charts of two people to determine their connection and possibility of lasting union.

The houses of natal charts are important in synastry as well. The houses of one partner in which the other partner’s planets fall, reveal the areas where their relationship is likely to impact their life and in what manner.
