Bhavas — The 12 Houses

Practical — Name a House Lord

Find the sign in the house, then name its ruler — on your own chart.

Two steps, on a real chart

You've done this on paper — now do it on a real chart. Find the sign in the 10th house, then recall which planet rules that sign. That planet is the 10th lord: the ruler of this chart's career and standing.

Now you try

Read the chart below, find the sign in the 10th house, and name its ruling planet — the lord of the 10th.

Finding your house lords

House -> its sign -> the sign's ruler. Because the lagna sets the signs, the same house has a different lord for different people.
