What the 9th house governs
The 9th house rules fortune, dharma, father, higher learning, long travel, guru. Read it through three things: the sign on the cusp, any planets sitting in it, and the condition of its lord elsewhere in the chart. A house is rarely judged by occupancy alone — an empty house is not an empty area of life.
