Do The Outer Planets Get A Boost From Their Own Houses???

Although you do see this mentioned from time to time, not much is

made of the

 

notion of planets being in their own natural House in Western

Astrology. The

 

concept IS mentioned quite a bit within Vedic Astrology; there, it is

known as

 

Karaka Bhavo Nashto, literally, " the siginficator destroys the

House " . The whole idea

 

is that if a planet that is the natural ruler of something sits in a

House which

 

governs the same thing, the " ruled " is harmed by a sort of " too much

of a good

 

thing " principle. So, Jupiter in the 5th is not considered good from

a Vedic

 

standpoint, for the children; Venus in the 7th, is viewed as great

for the spouse or

 

relationships overall; the Moon in the 4th is not considered good for

the health and

 

well being of the Mother, and the Sun in the 9th is not a good thing

for the Dad.

 

My question becomes - what about the Outer Planets in Western

Astrology?-when

 

they sit in the Houses they naturally rule? Do they get a " boost " in

terms of what

 

they represent intrinsically, for good or ill? Or does it mean

anything at all?

 

In my own observation, I have seen charts where Neptune is in the

12th and it does

 

seem to bring an extra " stamp " of all things Neptunian, right or

wrong. Same with

 

Uranus in the 11th - not only are the " love needed " concerns ranking

high on the list

 

of personal priorities, but there seems to be a very strong need for

that to be within

 

the context of group dynamics.

 

I have Pluto in the 8th in my Western chart (that's if you're using

Placidus Houses)

 

and clearly, my interests, experiences and so on reflect that vibe.

Pluto in the 8th

 

often correlates to a strong interest in psychology or metaphysics

(of which

 

astrology is a part) or both, along with the usual suspects - death,

sex, taboo

 

subjects in general, etc. All of this has certainly been the case for

me.

 

The reason why I singled out the Outer Planets is because, being as

powerful as

 

they are, I thought their presence in their natural Houses in the

chart would be very

 

noticable. But I leave that up to you.

 

Do The Outer Planets Get A " Boost " When In Their Own Houses???

 

What do you think/say?
