The 12 zodiac houses are divided into 12 segments that circulate counterclockwise in a 360-degree circle.
Each segment, or home, represents a distinct area of our lives that we must consider. The houses are like distinct sets or stages in the movie of you, where the planets (“actors”) perform their roles (given by the zodiac signs).
Each of the 12 houses is linked to a set of characteristics that begin with the self and extend outward into society and beyond.

We can talk about the chart ruler and its overall relevance in your birth chart now that you know the basics of each astrological house and its planetary ruler. For begin, the major theme of our cosmic footprint is determined by our chart ruler, which is absolutely unique to each individual. We need to look at the house in which that planet lives, as well as the sign it occupies, once we know our rising sign and its ruling planet. If your rising sign is Sagittarius, for example, check to see which house and sign Jupiter, Sagittarius’ ruling planet, is in. That is the ruler for your chart.
Using that example, what happens if you’re a rising Sagittarius with Jupiter in Gemini in your seventh house, dubbed the house of partnerships? Because Jupiter is associated with luck and abundance, and Gemini is associated with curiosity and chattiness, you will naturally attract mentally engaging partners, but you will likely become bored of them shortly. This is how your ascendant sign can tell you so much about yourself.
Please take a moment to find out what your rising sign is if you haven’t already. Your life is going to alter in a positive way.
What is the ruler of my horoscope?

Is it true that everyone has all 12 houses?
Interpreting your horoscope is a difficult task. In addition to knowing your sun, moon, and rising signs, you must also know the 12 sectors that your chart is divided into, known as houses. Each of the planets moves through a different house in astrology, and each house influences a different aspect of your life. When I initially started learning astrology, it took me the longest to figure out the houses, and one of my major challenges was figuring out what empty houses meant in astrology.
Because there are 12 houses and only 10 planets, everyone will have at least one empty house, which isn’t a problem. Simply put, the empty house in question in your birth chart represents a part of your life that may or may not be as important to you as the houses containing planets. This house may take further steps to fully comprehend its significance in your horoscope (and, of course, in your life), but there is a quick and simple approach to do it.
When looking at a birth chart, many of the planets are generally found in the same house. Mercury and Venus can never be more than one sign apart from the sun, and Mercury and Venus can never be more than two signs apart from the sun. As a result, these two planets are more likely to be found in the same home as the sun, leaving more of the houses vacant. When a house in your birth chart is empty, you’ll just look to the ruler of that house to completely comprehend how its meanings manifest in your life.
