The twelve rooms of a life.
A chart is divided into 12 houses (bhavas), each governing an area of life: the 1st is you and your body, the 2nd money and family, the 7th partnership, the 10th career, and so on around the wheel.
Your rising sign sets where the houses begin — so the same planet means different things in different charts depending on which house it lands in. A planet in the 10th pours its energy into work and reputation; that same planet in the 4th turns inward, toward home and heart.
Reading a chart is largely reading the conversation between planets, signs, and houses — which energy (planet), in what style (sign), playing out in which arena (house). The Life areas view turns this into a plain read of how each part of life is doing.
