The twelve houses
If signs are how a planet acts, houses are where. The twelve areas of life your chart divides into — read straight.

Signs vs houses
The how and the where
A planet's sign is its style — how it operates. Its house is the arena — the part of life it operates in. Mars in Aries is combative; Mars in the seventh house brings that fight to your closest partnerships. You need both to read a chart, and Danu uses Whole Sign houses so the boundaries are exact.
Pick a house
All twelve
The 1st house is the front door: your body, your first move, and the version of you people meet before they know you.
The 2nd house is what you have and what you value — your money, your stuff, and quietly, what you think you're worth.
The 3rd house is the near and the everyday — how you think, talk, and move through the ordinary world close to home.
The 4th house is your foundation — home, family, the past you came from, and the private self almost no one sees.
The 5th house is where you play — creativity, romance, and the pure pleasure of making something that's unmistakably yours.
The 6th house is the daily grind in the best sense — work, health, and the small routines that quietly build a life.
The 7th house is the mirror — marriage, partnership, and the close others who show you the parts of yourself you meet through them.
The 8th house is the deep end — intimacy, shared resources, and the things that change you by making you let go of control.
The 9th house is the far and the big-picture — travel, belief, higher learning, and the search for what it all means.
The 10th house is your public peak — career, reputation, and what you're known for out in the world.
The 11th house is the wider circle — friends, community, the groups you belong to, and what you're hoping toward.
The 12th house is behind the curtain — solitude, the unconscious, endings, and the parts of you that live out of sight.
