Disclaimer: you will hear faint chirping in the background. The birds were busy that day and I’ve tried to minimize it as much as possible. Apologizes if this is too distracting for you. 

This is the third part of the framework of astrology. I discuss the 12 houses in traditional astrology and how they fit together with the planets and zodiac signs.

Key Takeaways: 

• The houses signify different areas of our life and themes associated with them. 
• Angular houses are the most important, succedent houses support them, and decline houses are loosely related. 
• Houses above the horizon are related to the mind and public matters, below related to the body and private matters.
