The 9th House
(spiritual,wisdom,teaching,learning)
The House of Long Journeys over Water -- that's one old name for this part of the birthchart.
Since you have energy focused here a fortune-teller would say, "I see travel in your stars.
" True enough, although a deeper way of expressing the same notion is that immersing yourself in cultures outside the one into which you were born is a pivotal spiritual catalyst for you.
There are other kinds of catalytic journeys.
Getting a wide education, formally or informally, is one.
So is anything that breaks up the normal routines of life and thought.
Even learning to hang-glide.
Ultimately, in the Ninth House you weave a grand scheme of life's meaning and purpose, at least your own version of it.
This is the House of Religion.
.
.
provided we recognize that many major world religions have no churches or temples.
Cynicism is one such religion.
Existentialism, Materialism, and Science are others, not to mention Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism and so on.
As we saw earlier, the Ninth House represents the field of experience in which you are challenged to break up your routines, stretching into new experiences and developing broader philosophical perspectives.
