Hi everybody, this is Frank Clifford and welcome to another Frank Answers hosted by Astrology hub. Now I've got a couple of interesting questions that have been asked of me this time to do with the 12th house. So let me share with you my screen and we'll take a look at the first chart.

Now this is from Sandra, and Sandra says,

how do I work with the energy in my 12th house with Mars and Pluto there and also Uranus and the North node there. Well, probably the first thing to do is to think about that they're probably two very separate

conjunctions Mars Pluto and Virgo is one area and the Uranus North node in

Leo is another area. So let's think about the 12th house. It's one of those fascinating houses that I think astrologers get, or some clients get anxious about and astrologists certainly feel it can be a difficult place to have a placement.

If we think of the diurnal cycle, the daily motion of the planets, planets rise into the 12 house, just as the sun rises into the 12th house having been below the horizon in the first house for a couple of hours pre dawn.

So the idea of this house being hidden is a fascinating one because it's actually where planets rise and become visible into the light.

So it was fascinated me that and I want to say more about that I want to write more about that at a later date, but one of the things that I've noticed over the years with planets in the 12th house is that they're almost like day break. It's very, very young the day has just been born really and so planets in the 12 are often very visible just like the sunrise is incredibly spectacularly visible to everybody. But the planets that we have in the 12th house are seen by everybody, but we're just in the early throes of experiencing them. So they're very obvious to other people. The energy might be very raw having just risen and into the light above the horizon and so there's a sense of 12th house planet being incredibly obvious to other people but maybe not so obvious to ourselves. So planets there we have to shine a light on become a little bit more conscious of because they may be areas of ourselves that we operate on a very

instinctive, instinctual level. So there may not, there may be areas of ourselves that we don't want to recognize, we don't want to see, and yet are very obvious to other people.

So in Sanders chart that Mars Pluto in the 12th, Mars Pluto is fascinating because they're both planets linked to energy, you know, that both planets linked to the idea of survival. Mars, the fight for survival, the

hunter, and Pluto really so much about survival on deeper psychological levels and also on wider generational levels too.

So the Mars Pluto combination there can be found in people who experience life very raw, very rawly and experienced situations where they sometimes feel victimized, things aren't within their control at times.

And when Mars is connected with Pluto, there's often a need to understand where the individual will ends and where the collective or things that happen beyond our control begin. So that's one of the big

understandings of the Mars Pluto, understanding what you can control and what you

can't control the wisdom to know the difference as the saying goes. So my experience of Mars Pluto are people who are very have had very strong experiences linked to survival,
