ALMUTEMVenus in House 9
Venus represents what you love, what gives you pleasure and the things you value. House 9 is the house of wide horizons: long journeys, higher learning, faith and philosophy. It's the search for meaning and for a truth greater than the everyday.
In the ninth house — of long journeys, of faith, of high study and of the sacred — Venus is found in a cadent house, with its accidental strength diminished, but in a place of good nature. It turns toward the far and the high: toward pilgrimages, religion, wisdom and all that raises the spirit. It inclines to the love of the sacred and of the beautiful in faith, to a taste for devout music, for the noble arts and for pleasant learning; it gives delight in foreign lands and in doctrines that harmonise the soul. It may bring affection born in travel or bound to things of religion and of study. The star of concord, set in this place, sweetens belief and clothes worship and learning in beauty. Whether that love of the high bears fruit in blessing and in peace, or scatters far without profit, the state of the star in this place tells.
