United Arab Emirates

Dubai & abu dhabi.

The six emirates that are the United Arab Emirates could not be more different from one another; each has a magic and mystery all its own.

Sharjah has a charming Old Town and sleepy Umm Al Quwain offers a peek at life in the pre-oil days. Tiny Ajman has a pretty palm-lined beach and the best swimming and diving can be had in Fujairah, just over the beautiful Hajar Mountains.

Think eternal heat, Bedouin culture, austere natural beauty, bustling souks, space-age architecture, international cuisine, theme parks of almost every nature, shopping, and more.

Cusco & The Sacred Valley/Machu Picchu

Peru inspires wonder, from the majestic ruins of Machu Picchu and the mysterious Nazca Lines to the Cordillera Blanca’s soaring peaks and Lake Titicaca’s floating islands. Stroll Cusco’s cobblestone streets and take in stunning Inca and colonial architecture, or visit an Andean community where daily life remains rooted in tradition. Savor intriguing flavors: the country of pisco sours and cebiche is now a hotbed for fusion food. Surfing, trekking, and bird-watching satisfy a thirst for outdoor adventure, and world-class hotels offer creature comforts.

Indonesia is a popular tourist destination due to its unique blend of natural beauty, ancient spirituality, and modern luxury. The island is home to vibrant temples, pristine beaches, lush rice terraces, and breathtaking scenic views, as well as an exciting nightlife and vibrant cultural scene. Visitors can experience traditional Balinese dance and music performances, visit ancient temples and palaces, or simply relax and enjoy the island's natural beauty.

Help…air! When the couple bubble of the 8th house starts to feel claustrophobic, we need to fly free. The globally expansive 9th house rules travel, higher education and cross-cultural connections. 

The meaning of the 9th house in astrology

As one of the three “fire houses,” along with the 1st and 5th houses, ideas catch on and spread like, well, wildfire here. Teaching, publishing and entrepreneurship are the domain 9th house. If you’ve synthesized enough data, it’s time to share it with the world and inspire others to grow as you have. Higher education is also ruled by the 9th house of truth and wisdom.

Like the 9th house shares similar qualities to Sagittarius , the ninth sign, which is known for throwing caution to the wind and taking impulsive gambles. While the 9th house shows where you’ll have unflagging faith and optimism, it’s easy to overshoot the mark here. 

Speak your truth! The 9th house shows where you’ll be most candid and ready to call it like you see it, confusing your opinion with facts. Here’s where the filters come off and the truth serum can knock people on their a$$es…if you don’t get canceled first! 

9th House: Travel, entrepreneurship, wisdom and education 

Hips don’t lie—nor do the thighs, the body parts rules by this groovy zodiac sector. The 9th house shows where you’ll have restless energy and a need to gallop around and discover new spaces and places. Here’s where you’ll be a maximizer, which can also lead to chronic dissatisfaction if you don’t figure out when enough is enough.

The 9th house house is the third of the four cadent houses, along with the 3rd, 6th and 12th houses. These sit in-between the results-driven succedent houses and the trailblazing angular houses. Cadent houses are a lot like the mutable zodiac signs. They help us synthesize reliable data with novel concepts—in this case through exploring world philosophies and studying global techniques. And not without humor! Laughter is the best medicine and the 9th house delivers mega doses. 

What are the houses in astrology?

The zodiac wheel is a 360-degree circle, divided into 12 segments, or houses. Each house represents a different essential aspect of our lives. In the Movie of You, the houses are like the different sets or stages where the planets (actors) play out their roles (given by the zodiac signs).

You must know your time of birth to accurately determine the houses in your chart. If it wasn’t recorded on your birth certificate, you may have to work with an approximation, as in “My mom says it was sometime right around 4:30.” Or find an astrologer who does rectified charts. This intuitive, investigative reading can suss out what your closest birth time may be.

If you use the Placidus method (which we prefer and recommend), you may notice that the houses of your chart are different sizes. This takes into account the Earth’s tilt. The further from the equator you were born, the more unequal your houses will be in size.

How do you know which planets are in your ninth house?

Each house is like a movie set of your life where different types of action are taking place. When a planet is in that house, it’s like an actor on that set. To find out if you were born with planets in your 9th house, run a free birth chart here on our site. Then, look to see if there are any planet glyphs occupying that segment. 

Here’s a handy guide to the planet glyphs for checking out your own chart:

Which planets do you have in the 8th house? Here’s what each planet means in that position.

Sun in the 9th House

Your passions heat up quickly, igniting a “crazy idea” into a full-scale project in record time. But in your zeal to push forward, your maximized vision can go over budget and over time. Once you start honing your planning powers, you greatly increase your chance of success.

Moon in the 9th House

You’re a sucker for a deep, philosophical conversation. No topic is too broad or vast for you to explore, and you probably have strong opinions about a lot of them. Most people can’t match your range. But the ones who can will travel far with you—literally!

Read more about the Moon in the 9th house

Mercury in the 9th House

Fiercely independent about your opinions, nobody tells you what to think or believe! It’s easy to get carried away by your own enthusiasm. In moments you can exaggerate wildly, make impossible promises, or overshoot the mark. Careful not to do this or people may lose faith in you.

Read more about Mercury in the 9th house

Venus in the 9th House

You love without limits. This can make you wildly adventurous or endlessly devoted to your mate. A relationship must feel like a growth opportunity in order for you to sign on. If you sense endless possibilities from a merger, you’ll cliff-dive right in.

Read more about Venus in the 9th house

Mars in the 9th House

This capricious cosmic energy can make you a daredevil who takes unnecessary risks. Living for the moment could complicate your future if you don’t take practical considerations into account. But your bounce back rate is also higher than most—lucky for you!

Read more about Mars in the 9th house

Jupiter in the 9th House

Naturally nomadic, you may disappear for long stretches, leaving friends wondering of your whereabouts. Your resistance to putting down roots CAN become problematic because it’s hard to deepen, much less sustain, long-term relationships when you’re rarely home.

Read more about Jupiter in the 9th house

Saturn in the 9th House

Traveling is the ultimate teachable experience for you, bringing lessons straight from Saturn’s school of hard knocks. With the karmic planet here, it could take an exhaustive search to find a place that truly feels like home.

Read more about Saturn in the 9th house

Uranus in the 9th House

You’re a broad-minded philosopher who questions everything. This would probably frustrate most people if you didn’t have such a killer sense of humor. You’re as cheeky as you are scholarly, and people adore your unscripted ways.

Read more about Uranus in the 9th house

Neptune in the 9th House

Until you hone your criteria for involvement, you may start and abandon projects regularly due to unrealistic timelines or waning resources. In more extreme cases, this Neptune position can make you a gambler or excitement junkie who takes unwise risks to get your “fix.”

Read more about Neptune in the 9th house

Pluto in the 9th House

Fate has appointed you one of life’s great seekers. Paradoxically, the search for higher truths can plunge you deep into the shadows. You traffic in polarities, knowing that there can be no darkness without light, no love without heartbreak, no joy without despair.

What do the planets mean in the houses?

First and foremost, there is no “right answer” to this question. In fact, you could speculate on at least ten ways a planet is influencing a house at any given moment. This impact will also evolve over time. 

To get you started on reflecting, below are some key words for each planet. 

• Sun : Self-expression, ego, creativity, vitality, leadership, passion, what excites you
• Moon : Needs, desires, intuition, what comforts you
• Ascendant/Rising : The first impression you make, initial instincts, appearance, attractions
• Mercury : Communication, curiosity, thought processes, what you like to talk and learn about 
• Venus : Romance, seduction, fashion sense, what brings you pleasure, what you’ll spend money on 
• Mars : Instincts, turn-ons, lust, drive, motivation, pursuits, what you’ll fight for (and about) 
• Jupiter : Luck, inspiration, adventure, risk-taking, travel style, expansion, what you like learning about 
• Saturn : Time and karma, caution, challenges and struggles, boundaries, what you learn the hard way 
• Uranus : Innovation, originality, idealism, where you’re a rebel and a revolutionary
• Neptune : Dreams, the subconscious, fantasy, glamor, addiction, healing, boundless imagination
• Pluto : Secrets, wealth transformation, evolution, the unconscious, power (struggles)
• North Node : Destiny, soul evolution, dharma, the new “language” you are learning to speak

How does each planet influence my ninth house?

If you were born with any planet in your 9th house, it will influence the following areas of life:

• Expansion/broader horizons
• Truth-seeking
• Tactlessness
• Publishing and media making
• Cross-cultural connections
• Self-development
• Higher education
• Inclusivity
• New horizons
• Spiritual beliefs

When a planet is transiting (orbiting) through your 9th house, these subjects will likely arise.

These areas of life are thoroughly described in the 9th place planet links above.

Another example using Kylie Jenner’s birth chart

Kylie Jenner has driven Mars in her 9th house of independence and entrepreneurship. Although born into wealth, she is arguably the most enterprising of the Kardashian-Jenner clan, becoming the youngest self-made billionaire in 2018 on the success of her Kylie Cosmetics brand which began with her legendary Kylie Lip Kit when Jenner was only 18. 

Planets in the Zodiac Signs

There’s one more layer to this! The zodiac sign that the planet is in directs the role that it plays in your life. For example, if motivational Mars was Lady Gaga (the “actor”), Mars in dreamy, artistic Pisces would cast her— far from the shallow—as Ally in A Star Is Born. Mars in calculating, status-hungry Capricorn could turn her into Patrizia Reggiani in House of Gucci .

Or, in the case of Kylie Jenner, Mars is in Libra, the sign that rules fashion and beauty, the industry that made her a billionaire through her entrepreneurial efforts. In addition to becoming a beauty product mogul, the youngest Kar-Jen sister has unapologetically modified her own look through cosmetic surgery (Mars rules knives and metal surgical instruments). 

Keywords for the zodiac signs that appear in your chart

• Aries : independence, assertiveness, gutsiness, self-direction, novelty, trailblazing
• Taurus : stability, tenacity, values and ethics, routines, material comfort, sensuality, luxury, tradition
• Gemini : communication, curiosity, dynamic duos, variety, mobility, ingenuity
• Cancer : nurturing, sensitivity, emotions, home, family, roots, children, security
• Leo : passion, romance, self-expression, courage, loyalty, charisma, childlike spirit
• Virgo : wellness, efficiency, service, systems, organization, common sense, innocence, cleanliness
• Libra : commitment, partnership, equality, balance, mutuality, fairness, give and take
• Scorpio : intimacy, sex, secrecy, power, control, intensity, depth, obsessiveness, wealth, joint ventures
• Sagittarius : adventure, travel, expansion, wisdom, entrepreneurship, cross-cultural relationships
• Capricorn : ambition, structure, goals, long-term plans, achievements, prestige, status, time
• Aquarius : teamwork, originality, social justice, the future, technology, community, society, ideals
• Pisces : healing, dreams, fantasy, intuition, artistic ability, mystery, psychic abilities, compassion

What if my 9th house is empty, has no planets in it?

Empty houses still play a role—and we think of them like blank canvases where you might even have a little more freedom to say what goes. In some ways, this might even be a relief!

But no house will ever stay empty for long. The moon transits (orbits) through all 12 houses in the span of a month. The Sun visits each throughout one year. When a planet transits through a house, it lights it up with its energy. That area of your life will feel the influence!

For example, if the moon is in your 9th house, you may be inspired to reach out to family that lives out of town or to have a candid conversation with a close friend. Saturn transiting the 9th house may give you the discipline to write a book, start a business venture or plan a major trip that’s been on your bucket list for years.

Understanding 9th House Transits

Profound renunciation of faith is additionally identified with the ninth house, and when there are troublesome transits to the house or planets inside, we may lose confidence in presence of something higher, or even in the importance of our own reality. When a positive transit happens, we encounter profound moments that can give us a completely new understanding of life itself. Here is the house where our thoughts are free to travel and roam to greater heights, towards our own particular definition of god, regardless of whether we acknowledge anything greater than our material world and self. We are quite flexible in what we mean by god here, and it can even be only our motivation for living, our objectives, and higher expectations.

For those who have a strong 9th house influence, the world becomes their classroom, and each journey is an opportunity for personal growth and expansion.

Spiritual Growth

The 9th house is a domain of profound spiritual growth and philosophical inquiry. It invites us to question the mysteries of existence, the meaning of life, and our connection with the universe. This house is where we embark on a transformative spiritual journey, seeking deeper understanding and a profound connection with the cosmos.

Planets in the 9th house often indicate individuals who are naturally inclined towards philosophical contemplation and spiritual exploration. They may question the established norms and beliefs, seeking a deeper understanding of the universe and their place within it. These individuals are open to various spiritual paths, philosophical ideologies, and contemplative practices.

They might find solace in meditation, mindfulness, or yoga, as these practices align with the 9th house’s quest for inner wisdom and enlightenment. For them, life is not just a physical existence but a spiritual odyssey filled with opportunities for growth and connection with the divine.

Planets in the 9th House

The planets residing in your 9th house provide profound insights into your quest for knowledge, your approach to spirituality, and your desire for adventure. Here are a few examples:

J upiter in the 9th House

When expansive Jupiter, the natural ruler of the 9th house, graces this domain, it brings a profound love for learning, spiritual exploration, and an unwavering sense of optimism. Individuals with Jupiter in the 9th house are adventurers of the mind and spirit. They’re naturally drawn to higher education, academic pursuits, and philosophical inquiries.

A deep knowledge of the world

Being the house of ideas and principles that are ruling society, the 9 th house makes natives very curious about why things are happening the way they do.

Being the first universal house, it influences natives to no longer focus on themselves or their relationships with others, but on how they’re interacting with the entire world, how they’re following rules and are governing themselves.

Here, human beings are trying to determine their place in the society by having discussions, acquiring knowledge and traveling.

Even if not possessing all the answers or knowing the questions that need to be asked, natives with a strong 9 th house will still be fascinated by adventure and new experiences.

This is also the place that makes writers and publishers excel at what they’re doing, so those with strong planets and signs here should do their best at expressing their ideas to the large public.

This house can determine if writers will be well received by the public, not to mention it also indicates how successful they’ll become after publishing their papers.

It is the house of higher education, so it has an influence over degrees obtained in university and after. Studying the ninth house, people can see if they’ll graduate from higher studies or if they’ll have problems with their exams, thing that can cause them to delay their graduation.

Those having many strong planets and interesting aspects in the 9 th house will become the ones who are teaching the masses and end up being professors.

The 9 th house rules also over traveling over long distances and moving to different countries because it’s the place where new cultures and religions are being understood and appreciated.

Having a strong 9 th house indicates a higher sociability, the power to mingle and to change according to what knowledge has brought new.

Those who are working in other countries than their own and are traveling all over the world for their work could be children of the 9 th house.

Furthermore, this is the place of businesses that are dealing with the import/export as well. Many individuals with second spouses have been influenced by the Ninth house to get married again.

The first marriage belongs to the 7 th house, while the third is influenced by the 11 th one. Some people will be happier with their second marriage because they’ll choose their other half by different criteria and the 9 th house will make them more objective in their search for the right partner.

When influenced by this house, natives want a soulmate with whom they can talk philosophy and complex subjects.

Furthermore, the same house deals with the third child, with grandchildren and the relatives of the spouse.

When it comes to the human body, this is the house of the behind and the thighs. But things don’t have to end at this stage because the ninth house influences how people are seeing the world and how far they would travel from both a physical and mental point of view.

Those obsessed with discovering the truth in faraway places should know they’re being highly influenced by this house and Sagittarius.

Together with the 3 rd house, the 9 th is all about perception and media, but the latter is more focused on international affairs than on local ones, like the former.

People with a strong 9 th house will be eternal students of life and adapt their vision to the new knowledge they’ve accumulated.

When studying this house, many things regarding changes in the view about the world can be revealed. This is the place of dynamic intelligence, of intuition when having to deal with the new and of decisions that have to be made fast.

A birth chart with plenty of planets in the ninth house

Many of those having strong planets in the 9 th house aren’t focused on achieving something in particular, but they’re fascinated about traveling and learning new things about cultures of faraway countries.

Therefore, these natives will visit places forgotten by the world and volunteer for the military. They’ll be obsessed by the mysteries of the world and by how humans are focused to discover the absolute truth.

If unable to physically go to the places in their mind, it’s possible for them to attend different religious events and lectures that teach about new cultures.

Their loved ones will many times find them searching the web in order to understand why things that are happening on a large scale have a certain direction, not to mention how much they’ll study different philosophies of life.

People with a strong 9 th house will always discuss religion and philosophy at any event because such talks will interest them very much. Being so focused on philosophy and higher learning, this house deals with education.

The fact that all the houses present in astrology are encouraging natives to improve themselves and to develop indicates people with a strong 9 th house will focus on gathering more knowledge and becoming better selves in order for the world to appreciate them.

In other words, this is the house that influences natives to study as much as possible. Regardless of the age, individuals can always find out about new things and work with them.

Those having their birth sign in the ninth house should do just this because the more they’ll understand the world, the more they’ll know things about themselves.

For example, they could decide to have a brand-new hobby. Everything will work out great for them as long as they’ll be focused on doing what they love, not to mention how much this will help them learn faster and be better at something.

Natives with a strong 9 th house who are no longer in school should think of joining a class that teaches them new skills. The ones in school will be able to learn faster than others, but only if sticking to studying and in the same time having a discipline.

As a matter of fact, it’s essential for these people to focus on their schoolwork, especially when their sign is in the 9 th house. Therefore, they should take advantage of any opportunity and put their foundation for higher education when their sign is present in this house.

What to remember about the 9 th house

Also known as the house of philosophy, the ninth one has a very accurate designation because this theme is very present here. Those with a strong 9 th house will want to explore the world and to gain knowledge from everywhere they’re traveling.

For them, it will all come down to understanding their own feelings and opinions, to probing into their hopes for the future and to focusing on their dreams.

Having a higher education, people can easily understand complex ideas and concepts, which makes them more intelligent. It doesn’t matter if studying philosophy, religion or psychology, the 9 th house will always be their partner in discovering new things.

On this road to more knowledge, people will discover their own ideals and shape up their work ethic. A different way of understanding life and living with the unknown is by being spiritual.

The 9 th house is also about having a grasp of what’s larger-than-life. This is also the house that rules over an open mind and how people are expanding their knowledge, so traveling and interacting with others from different cultures are matters present here.

This is where dreams about the future and conclusions about the past are meeting in order to mold personalities and to develop new relationships.

Psychics who are receiving more information from the Universe happen to possess a very strong 9 th house.

As said before, this house also deals with international businesses and publishing, with grandchildren and the family of the spouse.

However, more than anything else, it is the house of philosophy and the search for the absolute truth.

It encourages natives to dream big and to be courageous, but not reckless because it also prepares everyone for new opportunities and especially for more knowledge.

Travels to faraway places, international interactions, partnerships with foreigners, relatives from different countries and the in-laws together with a higher education, are all key aspects of the 9 th house.

Furthermore, this house rules over opinions and attitudes towards new ideas, not to mention how much it helps people understand very complex concepts of morality and also ethics.

All the discussions about religion, philosophy and academia are held in this house because it’s the place of higher education and intellectual pursuits.

The Ninth House in Astrology

If you need to take a step back and think about life again, go to the ninth house in astrology. It will help you find the bigger picture and give you a deeper understanding. The ninth house in the natal chart is about two things: expansion and understanding.

It is the house of philosophy, wisdom, foreign travel, higher education—but how are they related to each other?

Keyword of the Ninth House in the Natal Chart

With that said, here’s a short list of the keywords of the ninth house in astrology:

• the higher self
• superconscious
• long-distance travel
• foreign cultures
• universities

scratched the surface

What is the Meaning of the 9th House in Astrology?

As you can see, the ninth house in the natal chart is complex and it has many meanings. But actually they are all very similar and all serve the same purpose: expansion. Incredible things happen in every aspect of life when you get out of your comfort zone—sounds cheesy, but it’s true.

First of all, the ninth house includes literally expanding your horizons. Spending some time (or even better, living for some time) abroad makes your world view completely shift. This house governs foreign countries and cultures.

Law is traditionally associated with the ninth house in astrology. This includes both laws of a country and your inner laws. Your ethics and principles are also shown through the ninth house in the natal chart. This house helps you develop an inner awareness that guides you through life.

Higher education is another ninth-house matter in astrology. This house describes your approach towards studying in general. It also includes self-education, however. The point is to accumulate knowledge, it’s not important how did you acquire it.

Sagittarius and Jupiter, the Explorer and the Wise

If you’ve stumbled upon this article, it’s likely you already know a bit about the zodiac sign Sagittarius in astrology (in a nutshell: Sagittarius is freedom-loving, open-minded and full of life). Sagittarius is the natural sign of this house because these qualities go hand in hand with the matters of the ninth house in astrology.

Every sign has a planetary ruler. The ruling planet of Sagittarius is no one else but majestic Jupiter, the planet of abundance, good fortune and growth. Did you know that Jupiter is the largest planet in the Solar System? This gas giant is all about expansion, and the ninth house and Sagittarius reflect this quality, too. They want to learn and have new experiences all the time!

The ninth house in the natal chart is a cadent house. Cadent houses include the 3rd, 6th, 9th and the 12th house in astrology. The common denominator here is service and learning. Planets in these houses act more on a mental level than in the physical world.

Higher Education and the Ninth House in Astrology

The ninth house governs higher education in the natal chart. The focal point here is expansion. Pursuing an education is a great way to broaden you perspective, plus it adds a solid base to your whole life.

It’s important to distinguish the third house learning and the ninth house learning. The third house governs elementary school and the concrete mind. On the other hand, the ninth house is about the abstract mind. The pieces of information you gather in the third house come to their place in the ninth. You are capable of processing much more complex data here.

One of the perks of going to college is that you get to make new friends. Meeting new people from various backgrounds helps you evolve and grow. Besides this, college is a place where you are bombarded with knowledge all the time—it’s clear why university is a matter of the ninth house in astrology.

An emphasized ninth house suggests that the person doesn’t just attend university, but they also might become a professor themselves. Several planets here suggest that the person has excellent researcher skills. They are able to see through chaos and find the big picture.

The sign on the cusp of the ninth house describes your approach to learning.

Foreign Travel

Looking for new ideas and new experiences? How about visiting some new countries?

Throughout history, universities were rare and you had to travel a long distance if you wanted to attend one. Hence the connection between universities, travel and the ninth house in astrology.

Acquiring knowledge about other places broadens your perspective, this is why foreign travel is part of the ninth house in astrology. Sagittarius, the natural sign of the ninth house loves freedom and wants to discover the world. The ninth house is just about that.

Everything related to long distance travel and foreign cultures is related to the ninth house in astrology. An emphasized ninth house suggests a lot of contact with foreigners. Maybe the chart holder will have a job in tourism or they will have to travel a lot. Working with foreign languages is also possible.

Man’s Search For Meaning

What do you believe in?

We are all on a continuous journey of discovering ourselves and understanding the world around us. In the eighth house, you went through some shocking and deep transformation. But it’s inevitable to think about why that happened. People have to find a meaning not to loose their faith.

The ninth house is the house of spirituality. The twelfth house in the natal chart is also a spiritual house, but it’s describes it from a different aspect. The ninth house is, on the other hand, definitely an upbeat and optimistic place. The spirituality of the ninth house is based on philosophy and tries to understand the bigger forces of the universe.

Jupiter is the planet of wisdom. Through the quest of the ninth house, you gain a deeper understanding. The sign on the cusp also shows how you can restore your faith.

The ninth house is the house of higher self. It describes your views and opinions on the world. In ideal case, however, they are not static but they change as you do. And if you choose to absorb new knowledge each day, you change a lot and quickly.

Over time, humans become wiser and wiser as they gain life experience. It’s normal to overwrite your opinion as you find some more pieces of the puzzles and the picture just looks different when you add them to it. This house shows your personal beliefs and philosophy.

People of religion are also represented by the ninth house. All nuns, priests, monks belong here. It’s important to note that religion as an institute and monasteries are part of the twelfth house in astrology.

The Ninth House in the Natal Chart: Jupiter and Luck

Jupiter is the planet of luck in astrology. Venus brings luck, too, but Jupiter is the BIG luck. (In the dictionary of astrology, Jupiter equals big.) The natural ruler of the ninth house, it’s interesting to think about how education and luck are connected.

To make one thing clear first, the ninth house isn’t exclusively about college education. It’s also about self-education, knowledge you acquire through books and experience on your own. The point here is expansion. Well, you have to admit that learning of any kind broadens your view significantly.

Jupiter also represents faith in astrology. Sagittarius (which is a fire sign by element) is endlessly optimistic and self-confident. Isn’t it interesting how luck and faith go hand in hand in astrology? You have to believe in yourself to achieve your goals, or to try at all.

9 thoughts on “ The Ninth House in Astrology ”

An article on natal Moon in the 9th house is missing. Perhaps an oversight?

Thanks for letting us know, it was in the wrong category. Moved to the Moon in Houses category.

Very good site, thank you very much. I would like to read about Jupiter in the houses, but I haven’t found anything.

Hi, thank you for pointing this out, I have just added it to the menu. You can read about Jupiter in the houses here .

This was very in depth and eye opening. Thank you! I have Jupiter, Venus, Pluto and North node all in my 9th house via the sign of Scorpio. My life has been absolutely intense and very different from anyone i know…and i wouldn’t change a thing. I have certainly had incredible luck, which is even more heightened when i choose to live in a state of full surrender. I lost that for a few years, recently its been a huge gift to learn the art of unlearning- to return to that state of innocent wonder and surrender.

This site is very informative and i am enjoying it so far 😊 Do you have an article on mercury in the 9th house?

Hi, it’s here . Cool placement 🙂

I have recently started looking at Natal charts and astrology and I feel I am being pushed to do this. I have always been a bit sensitive although I have expanded my understanding over the last 10 years.

I have the Sun, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter and Neptune in my 9th house. I am libra and the Moon is in Libra and just outside in the 8th house. Lately I am getting a lot of information sent to me. People don’t really understand me.

This was great information that makes things start to connect in my mind more. I yearn to pass on more information to others although people either don’t understand me or don’t believe me. I feel a bit like a canary in a coal mine in a soundproof cupboard.

Thank you for sharing! I really enjoy your perspective and explanation of astrology! It resonates with me!

7 MOST extravagant houses of 19th century Moscow

1. The Levenson House, Trekhprudnyi Lane, 9

The lantern above the Levenson House

This house, designed by architect Fyodor Shekhtel, was built for Alexander Levenson, the proprietor of a famous Moscow typography, in 1900. The house had space for printing machines, as well as living premises. The highlight of the house is a fascinating roof lantern. Recently, the house was scientifically restored and is now for sale. The 1,000-sq.m. building’s price tag is 1.1 billion rubles (approx. $14.4 mln).

The interior of the Levenson House

2. The Zimins House, Degtyarny Lane, 8/3

The interior of the Zimins' House

What seems an ordinary house from the outside is really one of the poshest mansions of 19th century Moscow, built for Nikolay Zimin, a major Russian tobacco trader. Built in 1896 according to the project by Edmund Yuditsky, it still houses the original interior decoration. Russian cinema buffs might recognize it from the movie ‘Brat-2’, directed by Alexey Balabanov.

The Zimins' House from the outside

Currently, the building houses the Agency for the Management and Use of Historical and Cultural Monuments of the Ministry of Culture of Russia – some of the foremost specialists in heritage preservation in the country.

3. The Igumnov House, Bolshaya Yakimanka Street, 43

The Igumnov House

This house looks like a palace right out of a Russian fairytale, but it was actually built in 1895 (designed by architect Nikolay Pozdneev), at the order of Nikolay Igumnov, a textile tycoon from Yaroslavl.

The door and the porch decoration of the Igumnov House

The bricks were shipped in from the Netherlands, the fascinating porcelain facade tiles made following a special order at the Kuznetsov porcelain factory, the most famous in Russia at the time. The cost of the house was allegedly around 1 million rubles (when 150 rubles was a solid year’s salary). Inside, the 40 rooms of the house were decorated in a variety of styles – from traditional Russian to art nouveau.

Currently, the Igumnov House is the residence of the French ambassador to Russia.

4. The Morozova House, Spiridonovka Street, 17

Zinaida Morozova's House

Another house by Fyodor Shekhtel, a star of Moscow art nouveau, was commissioned by Zinaida Morozova, the wife of Savva Morozov, a textile tycoon.

The exterior decorations of Zinaida Morozova's House

The interior design was made by a famous painter Mikhail Vrubel, who made several murals inspired by chivalry aesthetics of Medieval Europe, resonating with the neo-gothic style of the house.

In 1938, the Morozova House became the House of Receptions of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which it stays to this day.

5. The Vtorov Mansion (Spaso House), Spasopeskovskaya Square

Spaso-House from the outside

This mansion, commissioned by textile industrialist Nikolay Vtorov, was built in 1913. It takes its English name, Spaso House, from Spasopeskovskaya Square, where it is located. It’s a neo-classical recreation of a classic upper-class city mansion of the 1820s, with palladian windows and a perfectly symmetrical interior plan.

The interior of Spaso-House

Vtorov’s family lived in the house for just 4 years before the Revolution, after which the house was expropriated by the new Soviet government to serve as a reception house for the All-Russia Central Executive Committee.

Spaso-House's inner rooms

In 1933, the house became the residence of William C. Bullitt, the first U.S. Ambassador to the Soviet Union, and has stayed the residence of the U.S. ambassadors ever since. Presidents Dwight Eisenhower, Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan all stayed there when they visited Moscow.

6. The Ryabushinsky Mansion, Malaya Nikitskaya Street, 6/2

The Ryabushinski Mansion

This mansion, again built by Fyodor Shekhtel, this time for millionaire Stepan Ryabushinsky in 1900-1902, is probably the architect’s most famous work in Moscow. Apart from all the fascinating art nouveau interior decoration and the famous stairwell with a jellyfish lamp, the mansion also housed a secret chapel – the Ryabushinskis were Old Believers, outlawed in Russia until 1905. “I believe that in the whole of Europe there is no house like this,” Ryabushinski said when examining the newly-built mansion.

The Ryabushinski Mansion's 'jellyfish' staircase

After 1917, when the Ryabushinsky family fled Russia, the house became the state’s property and, in 1931, writer Maxim Gorky and his family started living there. Gorky didn’t like the mansion at all, calling it “awkward, but fit for working at least”. After Gorky’s death, the mansion became Maxim Gorky’s personal museum, which helped preserve the unique interiors of the house to the present day.

7. The Berg City Mansion, Denezhny Lane, 5/1

Berg city mansion

Constructed in 1897 by Pyotr Boytsov, the house was commissioned by a businessman named Sergey Berg. It comprises different styles – gothic, baroque and art nouveau. Berg’s mansion was one of the first Moscow homes to have electricity installed – lighting and an electric doorbell. It was here that the first “electric ball” was held.

The house, which had preserved all its original interior decoration, was renovated in 2016. It currently houses the Italian Embassy in Russia.
