The ninth house in Astrology is the natural
ruler of the sign of Sagittarius and the Planet Jupiter. Sagittarius and Jupiter combined speak of
optimistic expansion through the use of the mind and through life’s experience. This house seeks to expand the scope of the
mind’s focus using whatever means appropriate in reaching this
understanding.......whatever that understanding may entail.
Higher education is one means to finding
answers, whether this is through actual academic schooling or through the
school of life. As learning can come
from many sources in the ninth house, long distance travel, foreign cultures
and travel through the mind are all areas that relate to this house. Many of life’s issues and deeper
understandings can be attained while visiting foreign countries and the people
one meets along this journey. One seeks
to discover more of our world through communication with people of different cultures
to gain an appreciation of our own life’s meaning.
This house provides learned through
gathering of information gained through experience. It is the house of philosophy and religious
interaction, and planets found in this house use their particular energies to
uncover philosophic meaning to an otherwise conventional world. Within the realms of the ninth house, the
higher meanings of life can be unearthed by wisdom gained through experience of
whatever satisfies this yearning for truth.
Dreams and visions also come into play in
this house as the mind’s focus shifts and works through channels that
consciousness only discovers when delving into these states. Problems can be resolved through these
avenues and then modified to fit into the proper channels of your life which
are understood on a conscious level.
The ninth house is where we uncover the
truth through whatever channel that provides us with answers. It is the study of religion in its highest
order and through philosophic understandings and truths that we slowly grasp
while travelling our life’s journey.
