Okay, so I got curious about this whole “slavery” thing in astrology. Like, where does it even show up? I’ve been poking around charts for a while, but this was a new one for me. So, I dove in, and here’s what went down:
First Steps: Googling Around
First, I just started Googling. You know, “astrology slavery house” and stuff like that. I found some forum discussions and a few blog posts, but nothing super concrete. It was all a bit… vague. People were talking about the 6th and 12th houses, but no one really spelled it out clearly with examples, and it felt like a maze with no clear instructions.
Digging into the Houses
So, I figured I needed to get back to basics. I pulled out my trusty astrology books (yeah, I’m old school like that) and started reviewing the houses. I focused on those the 6th and 12th, as they’d popped up as potentially involved.
- The 6th House: I remembered this one is all about daily routines, work (the daily grind, not necessarily career), health, and service. It also deals with pets and, importantly, employees or those who “serve” you.
- The 12th House: This is the tricky one. It’s about hidden things, the subconscious, institutions (like hospitals or, yes, prisons), and self-undoing. It’s also about karma and things beyond our control.
My “Aha!” Moment (Maybe?)
I was looking at the 6th house descriptions about subordinates and people that “serve.” It, in modern terms, had some similar connotations with servitude. But, it was not explicit.
Then, the 12th house. I had some charts of people I know who have done prison time. Bingo. Strong 12th house placements. But “slavery” per se, no, I didn’t see something labeled “slave” there. It’s more about confinement and restriction of freedom.
Putting It to the Test
I decided to look at some historical charts. I found a few of famous figures involved in the slave trade (on both sides – owners and abolitionists). This is where it got messy.
- Some had strong 6th house placements (lots of planets there), which could be interpreted as relating to “servants” or a focus on that area of life.
- Others had heavy 12th house action, which might relate to the institutional aspect of slavery or the hidden suffering involved.
- But honestly, there was no single, clear “slavery signature.” Some charts were all over the place, as they always are!
My Conclusion (For Now)
So, here’s the deal: I didn’t find a definitive “slavery house” in astrology.
I think it’s more complex than that. You have to look at the whole chart, and the context.
I’m still thinking about this, and I’ll probably keep digging. But for now, that’s my journey down the astrology rabbit hole of slavery and house placements.
It isn’t some clear thing; it is a complicated thing in real life and in the stars, it seems!
