Significations of the Twelve Houses - Part 1: Houses 1–6

Part 1 of our series on the meanings of the 12 houses in astrology, with astrologers Kelly Surtees, Austin Coppock, and Chris Brennan. At the beginning of the episode we review some basic conceptual structures that are necessary for understanding how the houses got their meanings, such as the concept of angularity, good and bad houses, and the planetary joys. After that beginning material is out of the way, we begin by talking about the first house and what it means within the context of natal astrology, followed by the rest in zodiacal order. We don’t really deal with the issue of house division much in this episode, since that was covered partially in a recent episode on the origins of the different forms of house division in astrology. This is the first of a two part series, and the rest of the houses will be dealt with in part 2, which should be released sometime next month. Patrons of the podcast will get early access. This is a followup to our previous episodes where we talked about the significations of the seven traditional planets, and the qualities and meanings of the zodiac signs, part 1 and part 2. This was the first episode that we recorded when we got together in Denver last week to record a bunch of episodes in person in our studio.
