What a 9th house profection year is about
The 9th house rules everything far from home: foreign countries, universities, philosophy, religion, courts, teachers and the long journeys that change a person. In a 9th house year you go somewhere, study something, publish something or change what you believe. The year is expansive and restless and it rewards those who leave the familiar.
- Ages: 8, 20, 32, 44, 56, 68, 80
- Starts on your birthday and runs to the next one
- The sign on the house names the Lord of the Year
What tends to happen
A move abroad or a long trip, a degree started or finished, a book published, a court case, a change of religion or the loss of one, a teacher who matters, a foreign partner. Twenty-year-olds go on exchange; thirty-two-year-olds retrain or emigrate; forty-four-year-olds finally take the long trip.
How to work the year
Go. Book the flight, apply for the course, submit the manuscript. Read outside your field. If the law is involved, get advice early. When the Lord of the Year is strong, the year is generous; when it is afflicted, the belief that carried you may fail, and that failure is the education.
Your Lord of the Year
The Lord of the Year is the ruler of the sign on your 9th house cusp. Jupiter as time lord makes it the classic year abroad or the degree; Mercury, a year of writing, teaching and exams; Saturn, a year of the law, of serious study, or of belief tested by hardship; the Moon, a year of moving far from home. The ruler's house says where the journey goes.
