What are houses?
Houses are a division of the zodiac. There are 12 houses corresponding to the 12 division of the zodiac.
The houses are determined by the cardinal points of Earth orientation towards the heavens at the time of birth.The point of the zodiac at the eastern horizon at birth becomes the First House. The point of the Zodiac directly overhead is the Tenth house. The rest are determined mathematically based on these points. Its as though the First house is at the sunrise of our life and the Tenth at the noon of our life.
