Astrological Houses Cheat Sheet
The houses in a natal chart represent where the energy is being expressed. I think of the houses as different rooms/settings, the planets are the guests, and the signs are the theme/decor. I made this cheat sheet a couple years ago to describe what is affiliated with each house :)
