9th House in Libra
Avesalom Podvodny. Houses in Zodiac Signs
Judge. This person values beauty, refinement, elegance bordering on sophistication, elitism, tact, politeness, diplomacy, objectivity, intellect evolving into wisdom. He disapproves of coarseness, excessive emotions, and conflicts, believing that ideally one should be able to do without them. Here, the “I” ideal is overly influenced by collective subconsciousness and most often emerges as if intended for a person with a far more harmonious chart than that of its actual owner. In other words, a country girl, even one with a color television, would do better to take as a role model not a stage star (which is likely with this house placement), but rather orient herself toward an image capable of real existence within her own conditions. Guidance from the “I” ideal is often insufficiently defined; the ideal will draw attention to the incorrectness or imbalance in behavior or the overall situation, but will not indicate the direction for action: on one hand, this way is bad, yet the opposite solution is also unsuitable. Overall, the ideal directs the person toward mental effort and the search for balance, diplomatic solutions, although this is not always possible. Therefore, when forming the ideal, special attention must be paid to moments requiring decisive and uncompromising actions, balancing Libra with Aries. In situations involving the expansion of consciousness and restructuring of one’s worldview, the person attempts to perceive primarily through mental faculties, which proves ineffective; at the same time, many socially conditioned beliefs collapse, further complicating the psyche’s adaptation to new conditions. It is necessary to seek new aesthetic criteria and new foundations for inner balance—the old ones are no longer suitable. In relationships with a spiritual teacher, there is a strong subconscious desire to perceive him in an abstract, mental way, from a general social perspective, which is entirely incorrect, since spiritual teaching is always individual and essential, even if conveyed through mental concepts and sometimes even social clichés, which the student must reinterpret and imbue with new meaning. In foreign countries and unfamiliar cultures, the person values unusual beauty, seeking at a high level new forms of balance between spiritual values and understanding of evolutionary laws, appreciating sound philosophical and religious concepts. General karmic tasks should be sought in the aesthetic interpretation and expression of certain objects and phenomena—these will be indicated by aspects to the 9th house, and in due time, more specifically, by the Absolute.
