How to Understand Astrological Placements
It is a simple three-step process.
STEP 1: Know the difference between Planets, Signs and Houses.
Planets are the sources of energies that influence our lives. For example, Jupiter is the source of abundance, Venus is the source of beauty, and Mercury is the source of intelligence.
Signs are the categories of our personalities. To illustrate, Cancer is a nurturing personality, Libra is a harmonious personality, and Pisces is an intuitive personality.
Houses are the areas of our lives. Such as, the Second House is the area of our money, the Sixth House is the area of our health, and the Seventh House is the area of our partnerships.
STEP 2: Know what each Planet, Sign and House represents.

STEP 3: Interpret them all together.
Now that you understand what each of them means, you should be able to interpret any placement simply by combining them.
Pluto in Scorpio in the Seventh House
If Pluto is the source of power… Scorpio is a passionate and vindictive personality… and the Seventh House is the area of relationships, then:
A man with this placement has very powerful (Pluto) emotions for the people in his life (Seventh House). He is exceptionally kind and protective towards those he loves (Scorpio), but extremely hateful and dangerous towards those he considers his enemies (Scorpio).
Jupiter in Leo in the Fourth House
If Jupiter is the source of abundance… Leo is a brave and prideful personality… and the Fourth House is the area of home, then:
A young girl with this placement could someday have a truly amazing family life (Fourth House). She could marry a wealthy man (Jupiter), and their beautiful, intelligent or talented children would be the source of her pride (Leo).
Neptune in Capricorn in the Ninth House
If Neptune is the source of intuition… Capricorn is a determined and greedy personality… and the Ninth House is the area of philosophy, then:
Someone with this placement has the potential to become a cult leader. Spiritual dogma (Ninth House) will be very easy for them to create (Neptune). And their ambitions could push them to preach it to others (Capricorn).
All you need to memorize are the 10 Planets, the 12 Signs and the 12 Houses. Using that knowledge, you can easily assess anyone’s personality and make reliable predictions about their destiny.
