The Astrological Ninth House

What is the ninth house in astrology?

In comparison to the previous house, the ninth house is relatively easy to handle – emotionally speaking! As we move from the

eighth house to the ninth house symbolism we have the opportunity to put our past experiences into perspective and to gain a better understanding of where they fit in to the big picture of our lives.

Before we look at the ninth house, it may be helpful to review the meaning of the previous one – the eighth house. Some of the themes associated with the eighth house include sex, transformation, death, rebirth and psychotherapy – basically any situation that requires us to dig deep within ourselves to ‘survive’ intense life situations.

Another way to look at the ninth house is in contrast to the opposite third house where logic, everyday thinking and local travel are represented. Through the ninth house the mind broadens into a more intuitive and symbolic expression of ideas – looking at the big picture. Where the third house represents local travel, this house represents long-distance journeys.

‘Why was I born?” is a question that relates to this house. For people with a strong ninth house this question may end up being a quest that entails many physical and psychological journeys in search of an answer.

Some of the areas where ninth house issues are looked for are through the legal system – basically the definition of what is right and wrong, religious interests, symbols, dreams and the occult (hidden knowledge). Where the third house gives us the urge to relate to the people around us, the ninth house gives us the desire to unite with something bigger than ourselves – something to believe in. This is where the abovementioned themes come into action.

Searching for something or someone to believe in, and for meaning in your life may also mean an interest in books, learning and higher education as well (the third house represents our early education).

Where the third house represents your relationship with a brother or sister (blood relations – peers), the ninth house represents your relationship with an in-law (relatives not related by blood), and grandchildren (for other, more technical reasons).

Let’s look at a couple of quick examples… Moon in ninth and Saturn in ninth.

The Moon in the ninth house natally indicates that the individual will have a good feeling for the language of symbols and tends to learn through soaking up impressions. Since the Moon represents the home, the individual would most probably live overseas at some stage of their life.

Aries horoscope love compatibility

HOROSCOPE LOVE COMPATIBILITY BETWEEN ARIES AND ARIES ARIES AND ARIES:   it may be an intense love affair, but neither of the 2 Aries is satisfied with not having the lead. The Aries female objectively tends to dominate. Yet, Aries male too. Therefore there will be a big opposition to be number one, at least during the first days of the relationship. In the bedroom too, both Aries will engage a fierce struggle to dominate the other. The relationship between two Aries may be good though if each has outside interests and/or a career separate from the other. As a matter of a fact, when their energies are not always in the same room and when each partner can satisfy the natural Aries’ will to dominate, the relationship between two Aries is intensely passionate and less destructive. HOROSCOPE LOVE COMPATIBILITY BETWEEN ARIES AND TAURUS ARIES AND TAURUS:   That’s a difficult match. Taurus likes to stay at home, is possessive and jealous, characteristics highly conflicting with Aries’...

Purebred Dogs - What, me resemble my dog?

Purebred Dogs - What, me resemble my dog?  More than meets the eye…. We’ve all seen those articles that infer that a dog owner begins to take on the outward appearance of their dog. I for one, feel I have little physically in common with my dog (a KBT). I’m sure you would agree this premise does not have enough documentation! Certainly I did not choose Maggie because she would resemble me! People own dogs for different reasons and in an earlier article I dealt with choosing your pet based on exercise time, training time, home alone time, grooming time, and physical attributes. Now I’d like to look at the less objective reasons for dog ownership. Are dog owners of the same breed similar? Do you fit the profile of other owners for your breed? Check How dogs and their Owner’s Personalities are Similar where significant research is posted on the similarities among owners of same breeds as compared to other dog breed owners. This site is worth a visit if you own, or if you are...
