The twelfth house in astrology is a difficult house because it governs the hidden. This is where energy goes to hide, and we have to tap into the subconscious or surrounding energies to access it. 12th House Astrology & Your Natal Chart
Many astrology charts have 12 houses, and each relate to different parts of life. Your natal chart is a snapshot of the locations of the planets, other bodies, and houses in the Zodiac at the moment you're born and from the location you're born at. Each of your natal houses connects to different parts of your life and personality.
The twelfth house is ruled by Neptune, the notorious foggy planet. Neptune obscures, and makes it difficult to see things clearly, and usually forces us to operate on instinct as a result. At-a-Glance 12th House Keywords:
Twelfth House in Astrology: The Hidden
The twelfth house is the house of the hidden, so anything that is with the 12th house is hidden energy. It operates on a subconscious level, and it's something we have to work on consciously connecting with.
Twelfth house energy can come out when we're alone, when we're working behind the scenes in the background, and when we're out of the spotlight. We have to be comfortable, and we have to trust others around us, otherwise we have to be alone. Twelfth House in Astrology: Karma
Karma is associated with the 12th house, and this can be where we have karmic lessons to learn and karmic baggage to work through. When other people connect to our 12th house, we may have a karmic connection with them.
Twelfth House in Astrology: Artistry
The twelfth house is super creative, ruling the arts and imagination. This can be a way of expressing ourselves without relying on conscious thought, and we can nonverbally communicate through something artistic, creative, imaginative, and fantastically unreal.
There is a connection to energy that is outside of ourselves, and this can be difficult to control. Creativity offers a way to do that. Twelfth House in Astrology: Spiritual
Being ruled by Neptune, the twelfth house is a spiritual house. It governs our spiritual selves, how and where we find our spiritual beliefs, and what we connect with on a spiritual level.
This can also show a strong intuition, since we're connected to the subtle energies all around us with this house. Twelfth House in Astrology: Sacrifice
The twelfth house rules sacrifice, and what's associated with this house may show where we sacrifice in our lives. It doesn't have to be a permanent sacrifice, but it can be one that is profound and has a lasting impact on uis.
We can learn through loss and gain more compassion through pain with this house, and our empathy increases, and we want to do more. Volunteer work is ruled by this house. Twelfth House in Astrology: Self-Undoing
This is the house of self-undoing, and we can be our own worst enemy with the twelfth house. It can show how and where we get in our own way, and have to learn to stop working against our own interests.
This can relate to old baggage, both in our early lives as well as karmic. Where Your Twelfth House Energy is Found
For everyone, look to the Zodiac sign your twelfth house falls in. The areas of life ruled by that sign are where you can find the hidden, spiritual, karmic, sacrificial energy in your life. Also look to the natural planetary ruler of your twelfth house (the natural planetary ruler of the Zodiac sign your twelfth house falls in) as this can also connect to the 12th house energy.
If you have any natal planets in your twelfth house, this can make the twelfth house energy a lot stronger for you. That planet is likely hidden energy to you, and you may have difficulty accessing it. You need to connect with it consciously, and not give in to sacrificing it or letting it be your undoing. Transit (moving) planets touring your twelfth house can bring some temporary energy for twelfth house matters. It can be strongest with transit Saturn, since the lessons you need to work on and baggage you need to let go of can feel stronger. Transit planets aspecting your natal 12th house ruler can stimulate twelfth house energy as well, and conjunctions, squares, and oppositions by transit Saturn, Uranus, Pluto, or Chiron can be especially challenging, yet you may struggle with seeing things realistically and need to remove to veil clouding your vision.For everyone, look to the Zodiac sign your twelfth house falls in.

A Strong Twelfth House in Astrology
Some may have a super strong natal twelfth house. This can be the case for you if you have:
- a stellium (3+ planets) in the 12th house - your Sun, Moon, or Chiron in the 12th house - your North or South Node in your 12th house - your 1st house ruler in the 12th house - your 12th house cusp or ruler anaretic (at 29 degrees) - retrograde Mercury, Venus, or Mars in the 12th house or ruling the 12th house When you have a strong 12th house, you're someone who likely hides a LOT in your life. You keep everything from others, and may have many secrets. None of them may be super bad, but you're likely not comfortable sharing and are far from an open book. You have to learn to open up more. There may be a lot of baggage you have to work on letting go of. You may struggle with issues from childhood or from past lives, and have many lessons to learn. Therapy can be a very good thing for you. You can be super compassionate and empathetic, yet struggle to convey these things clearly. You may sacrifice yourself to help others, but it may not actually be necessary for you to do that if you just open up more. There can be a lot in your subconscious you need to consciously connect to. Worry less about what people will think or say, and more about your own opinions of yourself.
