9th House in Cancer

Avesalom Podvodny. Houses in Zodiac Signs

Easter Island. This person desires to be sensitive, understanding, kind, gentle, and caring; at a lower level, impenetrable, mysterious, and a skillful manipulator. The relationship with the ideal is intimate; inconsistency is deeply and emotionally experienced, and most often repressed before it is even consciously recognized. Generally, this person is unlikely to willingly speak about their ideal “I”—this topic is too painful and largely tabooed by the subconscious, due to the emotional-intimate way the ideal affects the individual: it triggers strong pangs of conscience, acute feelings of guilt, or irresistible alignment with fascination toward the ideal. This placement, especially with a strong Cancer, risks numerous abuses and violations of inner honesty in communication with and formation of the ideal; working through this occurs primarily through inner openness, honest and calm self-dialogue about one’s ideal and one’s level of alignment with its demands; hysterics, even idealistic ones, never bring anything constructive. Expansion of essential consciousness proceeds too emotionally—despite all desire and awareness of the necessity for inner transformation, the person becomes so overwhelmed by feelings that they involuntarily retreat. If Cancer is afflicted, expansion of consciousness occurs with a strong fear of the daunting unknown contents of the subconscious or the true structure of the world. Here, the mysteries of the unknown (9th house) combine with deep transformation (Cancer), which, in a constructive variant, can yield extraordinary discoveries concerning both the external and internal world of the person; the areas to explore will be indicated by aspects to the 9th house. Relationships with spiritual teachers and students are intimate, sometimes familial, and the emotions this person feels in foreign countries are indescribable in words. Foreign cultures are grasped through immersion—a method that is not always easy, but when successful, promises extraordinary experiences which (karmically) should not remain this person’s private possession alone. There may be interest in history, but here too there is a strong temptation to sink into forgotten times solely for personal pleasure; a true historian, however, should comprehend the life experience and development of nations, cultures, and their corresponding egregores in order to revitalize them and connect them to the egregores of their own time, thereby strengthening the karmic bond between eras. The general direction of their development will be felt deep within as a very high and pure emotional note.

Houses in Signs. Oleksandr Kostovych

Emotional and uncompromising in matters of religion and philosophy. Possesses the gift of prophecy as a normal psychic perception. Loves traveling by water. Is drawn to distant countries and foreign cultures. Possible inclination toward vagrancy. During travels in foreign lands, one should beware of robbery. Karmic guidance will come from nature and from elderly family members. She never forgets kindness and generously thanks for services rendered, but likewise never forgets insults or offenses done to her. Often relies on retribution from above and is capable of waiting many years until it occurs. She is vividly interested in all aspects of life—both light and dark. The mind is philosophically oriented and occupied with the search for life’s meaning. She is incapable of mercy and compassion, and sometimes forces others to suffer cruelly, especially when there are ideological disagreements. Distinguished by spiritual fidelity and deeply honors religion and ancestral traditions, demanding that her children do the same. She lives in the swamp of passions, yet longs to soar to the heights of spirit. Her spirit uplifts her, while the animal nature pulls her into the whirlpool of passions.
