What are 12 houses in astrology?

If you are someone who is a beginner at how to read a Kundali(birth chart) , then you need to know about the houses. The houses are like 12 different rooms in your big house, and each room is showing different parts of life.

Now imagine life as a big game board with 12 sections. Each section is about something special, like who you are, about family, friends, job, money and also health.

Every house shows how you feel and act in that part of your life. Planets (like the Sun, Moon, or Mars) move through these houses and tell us what kind of energy or story is happening there.

So, when an astrologer looks at your chart, they see:

• Which planets are in which houses
• What kind of feelings, challenges, or talents you may have
• Where you can grow and learn more in life

Each house helps you understand yourself better—like what makes you happy, what you're good at, and where you might need to be careful or work a little harder.

Relation between zodiac signs and kundalini:

Your birth chart is like a map of your life. It will help you reach your destiny through 12 parts, known as houses. Each house shows different parts of life, including family, friends, school or your dreams.

In the horoscope, there are 12 zodiac signs like  Aries, Taurus, Gemini, etc. These signs show how you do things in each part of life.

For example, the 1st house is about you — how you look, how you act, and how others see you. If the sign Aries is in your 1st house, it means you might be bold, brave, and like to take action quickly!

So, the house tells us what part of life we’re talking about, and the zodiac sign tells us how you act in that area.

The zodiac signs that rule each house (starting from your Rising Sign) and the planets inside those houses tell us a lot about your personality and life journey.
