The first house is the basic self and the physical body, and transiting Jupiter here tends to make one happier and also corresponds with a period during which Capricorns put on weight. Capricorn is the solar first house for all Capricorns. The second house has to do with money and possessions, and the presence of transiting Jupiter here usually corresponds with a period of comparative financial abundance. Capricorn is the solar second house for all Sagittarians. Relations with relatives also tend to improve. Reproduced by permission of Fortean Picture Library. The third house represents travel, relatives, communication, and related matters, so the presence of transiting Jupiter in this area indicates a period of time during which one experiences more trips, as well as more communications, A nineteenth-century engraving of Sir Isaac Newton, the great scientist and astronomer. When transiting Jupiter is in Capricorn, it is in the solar third house of all Scorpios. As a concrete example, the planet Jupiter embodies a principle that expresses itself variously as multiplicity, expansion, joviality, and good luck. These highly simplified houses are used to determine the influences of the transiting planets that are generic to each sun sign. In other words, for a Scorpio (i.e., a Scorpio sun sign), all 30° of the sign are regarded as the first house, all 30° of Sagittarius (the next sign of the zodiac after Scorpio) as the second house, all 30° of Capricorn as the third house, and so on. Newspaper astrology further simplifies this system by using the 30° arc of the sun sign as the first house, the next sign in order of the zodiac as the second house, and so forth. Rather than beginning the chart's houses from the ascendant (which cannot be calculated when the birth time is unavailable), a solar chart uses the position of the Sun on the day of birth as the place to begin the first house, and then calculates succeeding houses in equal arcs of 30°. Solar astrology is a system that is often used when an individual's birth time cannot be determined.
Sun-sign astrology has the advantage of simplicity-a person's birthday is all that must be known to figure out her or his sign-but this simplicity is purchased at the price of ignoring all other astrological influences, and hence is rarely 100 percent accurate. While there are many different influences in every individual's natal chart, the single most important astrological influence on personality is usually the sign of the zodiac the Sun was in at birth.
The simplified astrology found in newspapers, magazines, and other popular publications emphasizes sun signs as well as a rudimentary form of solar astrology.
