Governers of the homes – part 2
Author: Galy
The picture shows clearly the pattern in which the planets operate. Each planet has a real nature. As everything has a main color. Let us assume that Venus has a natural white color. Positioned in a sign it may be change its color - with a tinge of yellow, blue, etc. The home position addsa third color shade. So the real nature of Venus has been modified in some way - it functions in a manner different from its inborn, its natural. There has a specific "job description", where are written its intentions or its obligations (whatever you like better).
In this article I continue with the topic about the rulers of the various homes and more precisely how the planets present themselves in their capacity as managers of the various homes. According to the home that a planet governs, we define what is the temporary status of this planet for the particular horoscope, according to what rules it operates.
The real nature of the planets - benefices / malefitsi - is constant. It never changes. It is such from the point of view of the whole, the macro perspective. Again I would like to emphasize, however, that this division is relative.
The temporary status - functional malefik / functional benefik - is from the point of view of the specific individual, micro perspective. That’s why it is called temporary, ie valid for the given horoscope.
There are three categories: functional benefik (beneficial), functional malefik (maleficent) and neutral. This status is determined solely on the basis of the specific horoscope – which homes a given planet manages.
So:
The manager of the first home - Ascendant
This planet always acts as beneficial as it manages individual expression and "entry" into the world - the operational benefik. It is responsible for the man to find his place in life.
The manager of the second home
This home as it already became clear defines the resource as a whole and how this resource is used and stored. This planet has a neutral status. And whether it will have a tendency to function as benefik or malefik depends on the other planets, which it interacts with and as well as on the other home run by the same planet (if any). This is the way to analyze the neutral status.
The manager of the third house
This home is related to the desires and interests, with the initial impulse. They are primarily "products" of the human ego and the man chases them too selfishly and sometimes completely unscrupulously. Therefore, the planet governor of the third home has a functional status malefik. This is the home of the ego.
Over time I found that this home is somewhat the least understood in terms of importance and functionality. For too long, even I myself did not give it the due attention. Yet it most directly concerns the existential question - how do I employ my vital energy, how ambitious am I, decisive, entrepreneurial and able to fight in life. Sometimes this ability to fight turns into great aggression, even violence. Ambition can reach high peaks and to turn into arrogance, selfishness and love of power.
The manager of the fourth home
The fourth home is associated with the need for a person to feel happy, glad, to find his inner comfort. It also defines all the ways in which we are trying to get to it. In these attempts he makes one can act in different ways - both good and bad. So the governor planet has neutral status.
The manager of the 5th home
This is the home of the divine piece in every man, his naturally innate intelligence and creativity. The planet governor has a status of a big "good-doer" – a functional benefik.
The manager of the 6th home
This home defines one of the unpleasant areas in life. Which are actually the result of misconduct most simply put into words. Misuse of food can lead to diseases. Personal weaknesses lead to the creation of enemies and entering into conflicts. The planet governor acquires status of a functional malefik that forces people to improve - through effort, obligation, illness, accidents, enemies. Something very important - I mentioned the word "improvement". Things that one encounters in the sixth home have as a main objective to lead to improvements, although necessarily, voluntarily.
The manager of the 7th House
This house symbolizes the desire to share with others, to make our desires related to other people come true. Most relationships in life and especially the intimate ones are a combination of give and take. There never can be only one - a man can take up to a certain limit, then he begins to give until the restoration of the balance. For this reason, the governing planetreceives a neutral status.
The governor of the 8th home
This is perhaps the most difficult area in the human life, as it symbolizes the end in any sense. If in the sixth home are the things that can improve, a man has a chance to do something about it, in the 8th home one does not have this opportunity. This home is not "improving". It is associated with the most painful things in life and that is why the planet governor is a functional malefik, although its motivation is neither bad nor good. It is responsible for the balance in life in general and at times it must be destructive. This is its duty.
