The 12 houses in astrology

Your sign says how you do things. The houses say where: money, home, love, work, friends. Twelve slices of the sky, worked out from the minute and place you were born.

Houses need your birth time. The sky turns a full circle every day, so a few minutes can move a house line into the next sign. Skycup works them out on your phone with Placidus houses, the most widely used house system, and the same math runs in the rising sign calculator here.
