Your tired self, the 12th house
You act like your 12th house when your tired, so here are descriptions of the 12th house when tired:
Aries 12th: Gets overtired to the point of having too much energy or to the point of being unable to sleep. May also get grumpy when tired and easily agitated. Can get sarcastic and satirical. Can become bossy.
Taurus 12th: Just goes to sleep for a long time. They don’t do “up ‘till 4am”. They need their fucking sleep and they’re going to get it. They also can get very grumpy when tired but they honestly don’t have the energy to start anything. May like falling asleep to the sounds of Nature or silence.
Gemini 12th: May like to read or journal before bed, that’s what’ll get them tired. May become really anxious or on-edge when they haven’t gotten enough sleep. Either sleeps for a solid 12 hours or for only like 2h. Thinks a lot before falling asleep.
Cancer 12th: Becomes moody af when tired. They need lot of sleep or they’ll remain that way. Probably has trouble falling asleep when away from home. Falls asleep thinking about a bunch of memories, mostly good but some not so much.
Leo 12th: Becomes really full of themselves when tired. Also the kind of person to suddenly start complimenting people out of nowhere when tired. Either drinks when tired or is tired from drinking, likely wine. Actually needs a decent amount of sleep tbh??
Virgo 12th: Likes to fall asleep at whatever time feels most natural. Can be kind of an asshole when overtired. Like Taurus, may like to fall asleep to silence or to the sounds of nature. Doesn’t really get enough sleep tbh because they’re constantly thinking about a million different things.
Libra 12th: Like Leo, they may fall asleep from tiredness brought on by alcohol, likely wine. They may like to listen to music before bed and could fall asleep thinking about a bunch or romantic scenarios. Quite pleasant when they are overtired and much kinder than usual.
Scorpio 12th: Probably thinks about some really deep shit before falling asleep. Being Taurus’ sister sign, they also need a lot of sleep. Can be very antisocial when tired. Probably has sex or thinks about having sex when tired.
Sagittarius 12th: Probably the kind of person to Google a bunch of shit when tired. Watched documentaries when tired too. Is very chill when tired tbh. Probably imagines a bunch of adventures when falling asleep. Literally gets like no sleep tho.
Capricorn 12th: Becomes very serious when tired. Knows they need sleep and gets it. They need to fall asleep to either silence of white noise. They really won’t take anyone’s bullshit when they are overtired.
Aquarius 12th: Is honestly probably still on Tumblr at 2am. They just don’t get sleep. Probably the friend that texts you wayyy too late at night and then gets annoyed when you don’t text back because you’re asleep. Get’s very… weird when they’re overtired.
Pisces 12th: Sleeps. that’s it. For if they are even the slightest bit tired, that seems like the best option. Of course when falling asleep they’re probably thinking about the universe or some song that is stuck in their head. Somehow though they’re still tired even when they’ve gotten plenty of sleep??
The 12th House, Karma and The Womb Experience
When you look at someone, there are some things you notice right away. You say to yourself,
“Hmm, she looks very kind and sweet-natured,” or “My, she looks butch.”
In her horoscope, the chances are good that these things have to do with the 1st house, which holds whatever a person wants to project. It’s not that she isn’t kind, or butch, or competent, or whatever she’s projecting. She probably is. However, that isn’t necessarily her whole self.
What’s hidden behind that face? To find out, we go to the 12th house. In the 12th are the things you might learn on a dark night, around a campfire - or perhaps when you’re in bed after making love. Or you might never learn them, because she doesn’t know them herself.
Looking at your natal chart, the 12th house is the one just above the eastern horizon. The eastern horizon (the rising sign, or ascendent) is the furthest point on the left, and the first house is the wedge going down from there. The houses (pie-shaped wedges) go around the circle from 1 to 12 in a counter-clockwise direction, so the 12th is the one just above the 1st. Many charts have little numbers close to the center of the wheel, telling you which house is which.
The 12th house represents the underpinnings of your life. If you can imagine yourself packing a psychic suitcase before bidding all your friends in the other world goodbye and then sliding into the womb, then the 12th house would be the contents of that suitcase.
In the womb, you’re sensitive to certain kinds of phenomena, and these phenomena reflect whatever you’ve got in your psychic suitcase. After all, you’ve picked birth-parents and a birth situation that will help you resolve your last experience, whatever it was. If you had a traumatic past life, then your new life will help you heal from that. Likewise, it will be a chance to use the talents and skills that you developed then.
If you have more than one planet in the 12th, then you are working through a lot of past-life issues. Twelfth-house planets are shadowy, but you are always aware of them on a subliminal level. A 12th-house emphasis can mean spending a lot of time on a spiritual quest, or perhaps talking to a therapist, working out what’s buried within you, figuring out what to do about it.
A strong 12th house will often give artistic talents. After all, the muse especially loves to visit those who are peering into the shadows, looking for buried truths.
In the old books, the 12th-house is called “the house of self-undoing”. That’s because you often tend to ignore or repress what lies in your 12th house. At the same time, you generally can’t help acting it out in one way or another - and so you often feel compelled in this area. If you reject your 12th house planets, if you don’t admit that they’re part of you, then you can end up condemning yourself. If you accept that they are you, you can learn from them. And you will often discover that they have wonderful gifts to give you.
If you’re looking at the horoscope of a potential or actual lover, her 12th house will explain some of her unconscious behavior. You can encourage her to express these traits in a positive way, and you can love them in her (even if she doesn’t love them in herself). And if you’re trying to figure out where you might have intersected in a past life, her 12th house planets might give you a clue.
The Sun
If your sun is in the 12th, you were a leader in a past life. You were very visible, and a great deal was expected of you. (Your sun-sign will give you some clues about what made you famous.) This sense of specialness continues while you’re in the womb. Everyone is aware of you, waiting for you to emerge. You may be awaited eagerly, or you may be notorious even before your birth, but you are definitely a force to be reckoned with right from the beginning.
During this lifetime, it’s easy for you to take leadership positions, and to exert your authority, even when you don’t realize you’re doing it. Often you show fierce independence, with a compelling need to do things in your own way.
The Moon
If your moon is in the 12th, you arrived with a lot of emotional baggage, and some of it probably has to do with the person who is your mother (in this life). You may have loved and protected her in a past life, and so you were drawn back to be with her. Or you may have been royally angry at her, perhaps deceived by her, and so you incarnated to get things squared away. During your time in the womb, you are very conscious of her - everything she feels, everything she experiences. During this lifetime, you respond to a great many things in an emotional way, even though you don’t always realize it. You could be moody at times. It’s not easy to get in touch with your emotional needs, but you can see what these needs are by looking at your moon-sign.
Mercury
If your Mercury is in the 12th, you focused on ideas and theories in past lives. You may have been engaged in figuring out some scientific phenomenon, or counting how many angels dance on the head of a pin - and then your time was over, and you never did work it out. So you arrived with a consuming intellectual curiosity, which may go in a single direction, or may branch out in different areas. It’s often said that an unborn child can hear everything that is said in her vicinity, and this was definitely true of you.
During this lifetime, you are still haunted by the need to know. But sometimes you can over-intellectualize, reducing everything to an idea. Communication is especially important to you, and you can sometimes be compulsive about it. If you can’t share your thoughts and ideas, the frustration can be intense.
Venus
If your Venus is in the 12th, you may have been a great beauty or a great poet in a previous life. Your focus was on pleasure, and this could have meant the ecstasy of art, the excitement of sexual escapades, or the passion of a great romance. You might have been a Juliet, or you could have lived happily for a lifetime with your lover. Whichever it was, there was a sense of leaving before all your pleasures were done. In the womb, you are very aware of the love - or the lack of love - in your new life.
During this lifetime, you want love more than anything, but you can’t always admit this to yourself. And so you can be compulsive about anything connected to pleasure, beauty and romance. You can diet unmercifully, or even go in for plastic surgery. You can go from one lover to the next. But once you work through your insecurities in this area, you have a very deep love to give.
Mars
If your Mars is in the 12th house, then you have a very butch shadow. In a past life, you may have been a soldier, a martial artist, or someone who competed fiercely in the sports arena. The 12th-house Mars shows quite a bit of jostling when you were in the womb, and it can mean that your mother had accidents, surgeries, or other crises during this time. You felt that life was going to be a very physical thing.
During this lifetime, you really need to express yourself on the physical level. However, this isn’t always easy to do, and you may sometimes deny your will and your impulses, feeling that they’re not really “you”. This often backfires, and you do rash things on impulse. Mars is also the planet of anger, and you can squelch anger till it explodes, or until it makes you ill. You have to find healthy physical outlets.
Jupiter
If your Jupiter is in the 12th house, then you were a social force of some kind in a past life. You might have been very rich or you might have had noble blood. You were established in some way, a pillar of the community. You made yourself pretty comfortable while in the womb, and your mother probably gets a lot of good medical care. This could have meant doctors, or it could have meant aunts with herbal remedies, but there was a sense of abundance, and you tapped into this.
During this lifetime, it’s important for you to be part of the community. Jupiter is the planet of expansion, and so you may have a tendency to overdo everything - for instance, starting an enormous number of projects, or spending more money than you have. You’re always hungry for more, especially more social attention, and so you need to find a welcoming, warm community with which to share your enthusiasms.
Saturn
If your Saturn is in the 12th house, then you are dealing with a karmic loss of some kind. This is the position which shows most past-life suffering, and it can mean bringing regret, sorrow or guilt with you. In the womb, conditions were a bit limiting, one way or another. Your new family may have been poor, depressed, or over-burdened with responsibilities, and you picked up on this, and didn’t feel overly comfortable.
During this lifetime, you frequently return to an old sense of sorrow or deprivation. There’s some part of you that has trouble believing that you deserve to be happy, and so you can unconsciously sabotage your own projects and opportunities. Once you work through your karmic trauma, forgiving yourself and others, your 12th-house Saturn gives you a great deal of wisdom.
Uranus
If your Uranus is in the 12th house, you are influenced by a past life that was exciting, turbulent, full of shocking changes. You might have been in the middle of a revolution, an earthquake, or a tidal wave. In the womb, there continued to be some disruptions. Your family may have been reeling from some sudden change, and you got the sense that things wouldn’t calm down anytime soon.
During this lifetime, you expect things to change, and you are always on your toes. You have a lot of nervous energy, a tendency to suddenly and compulsively rock the boat. It’s not that you don’t prize stability, but there’s a part of you that doesn’t quite believe in it. However, your 12th-house Uranus gives you wonderful creative gifts, and so it’s important to find people and organizations who appreciate your innovative ideas.
Neptune
If your Neptune is in the 12th house, you were once a dreamer, a poet, a spiritual figure, or perhaps a drug addict. You dwelt in the realm of the imagination, always attuned to other dimensions. You may have experienced intrigues, illusions, deception, and confusion, and you arrived in the womb with some definite trust issues. In the womb, too, it was hard to know what was what. It could be that your mother drank or used drugs, or that she was exposed to other toxic elements in her environment.
During this lifetime, you may find yourself dealing with a compulsive urge to escape from reality. You can imagine a life in which there is perfect peace, beauty, love and joy, and it’s easier to live in your imagination than to stick your consciousness to the physical plane. You have wonderful creative and spiritual gifts, but need to stay grounded enough to give them.
Pluto
If your Pluto is in the 12th house, you dealt with some heavy power issues in a past life. Pluto is about the collective unconscious, and so you may have found yourself dealing with the shadowy elements of society - criminals, prejudiced people, crazed mobs, war hysteria, or other kinds of mass psychosis. In the womb, you were aware that your family was marked by some deep inner divisions, perhaps issues of good vs. evil, or life vs. death.
During this lifetime, you know yourself to be a survivor, but you are still conscious of deep inner urges which don’t seem to fit. Your psyche sometimes seems to be a Pandora’s box, full of every random need or desire known to humankind. You may be afraid of your own power, but it’s important to realize that you possess more than the power to harm. You also have the power to do great good in the world.

What You Don’t Know
*Sun, Moon, maybe 12th house*
~May trigger
Aries: Afraid to be sad. Afraid to release emotions. They don’t want anything to come in their way of their positivism. Can not come to terms with negative emotions because they refuse to deal with emotional pain. After heartbreak, these people will hide from love because the pain and hurt that comes with it is simply not worth it. Let your Aries cry on your shoulder and be soft with them :(
Taurus: Can have an extremely chaotic mind when stress takes over. Can be brutally mean to the people around them if they feel like their being pushed. Being overwhelmed as a Taurus effects everything around them because its really a cry for help. If they say mean things when their upset, its not because of you, its because they need the help they are too prideful to ask for.
Gemini: Scared of being alone, scared to be alone with their thoughts. They’re so social because they constantly want to bounce ideas off other people, they want to be recognized, and they want someone to listen to what they have to say. When their alone, its almost a panic, who is going to listen? Who is going to recognize them as a person? Its just the same thoughts over and over.
Cancer: Scared of never reaching their full potential. Scared of never losing the weight, never getting that job, never finding love. This people will sulk and become self-destructive at the THOUGHT of never being good enough for themselves. Everyone sees them as cute lil fairies, so they can’t understand why their Cancer friends are worried. Everyone sees the potential but them.
Leo: Scared of being alone. Like Gemini, but in the way that everyone will leave them. Leos don’t necessarily like being left in a home alone, but they can stand it. They are worried about their loved ones leaving them, and never loving them again, which could bring out their abrasive and controlling attitude. Hug your Leo beans tight, they need you more then they will admit!
Virgo: Virgos are humanitarians, they are cold with their own emotions, but empathetic with others. These beings hold a lot of guilt, because they soak up other people’s energies. They carry other people’s negative emotions, which could break these fragile flowers. If you’re a virgo and you feel down for no reason, meditate, take a bath, get lost in nature.
Libra: Libras are big spenders, they like luxury and they love buying things for others cause they’re cute lil guys. BUT, these people are worried that their never going to be financially stable enough to be happy. They want to spoil themselves and other people, and they want to do it the right way, extravagantly.
Scorpio: These people are sensitive af. They won’t show you unless they trust you fully but they are a water sign for a reason! They think compulsively about everything said and done, and the reasons behind it. Be soft with these creatures because they care deeply for everyone. Hug a Scorpio today and tell em you love their crazy ass.
Sagittarius: These people are scared of being stagnant. They want change constantly. They feel trapped inside of themselves looking for something to cause a thrill. Whether it be traveling, moving, a change of heart, these people need to see themselves flourish and change, they can’t bear to stay the same.
Capricorn: Scared of success. These people are scared of succeeding and not succeeding at the same time. They can handle the stress and responsibility of success, but they are scared of trying and not succeeding. They want to be successful so badly, but the chance of failure can be stronger than their determination.
Aquarius: Scared of being no help. They want to help and improve their friends, their family, the world. Like Virgo, they want the best for everyone, but they have to realize you can’t fix everyone. They want to share what they know in hopes that it can touch their lives like it touched their own. Sweet sweet beings.
Pisces: Pisces are extremely vulnerable. The way they grow up, the things they see, the people they meet, the thoughts in their head, and what they do with their free time is CRUCIAL to either being developed or undeveloped. Of course, if you grew up with a less than beneficial family or etc, they can always bounce back. But, it’s hard for Pisces and their emotional nature because their hearts bruise so easily :( if you’re a Pisces struggling, find a creative outlet for your free time i promise it helps!!!!
Individuals with 12th house planets and personal planets in Pisces can often expect recognition of their sorrows when suffering through adversity. They can have the idea of a debt that has to be paid to them by unseen forces, whether it be through life itself, fate or karma, or another force they believe in such as through religious means. “I gave so much and went through so much, so now I am owed.” One must learn that sacrifice is not sacrifice if reward is expected. The “reward” in this context is the luxury that there is always a choice to serve or suffer; the option to grow and learn from the hardships they endure through selflessness is there, or, one can forever circle the idealization of a neutral, greater force than them like the universe somehow bending to their will. These same effects occur according to the condition of Neptune in the chart.
Today, December 12th 2012!
Hey, have you guys noticed that this will be the last time most of us will live to be in a date where the day/month/year numbers will be all the same?! Think about it: - January 1st 2001 (01/01/01) - February 2nd 2002 (02/02/02) - March 3rd 2003 (03/03/03) - April 4th 2004 (04/04/04) - May 5th 2005 (05/05/05) - June 6th 2006 (06/06/06) - July 7th 2007 (07/07/07) - August 8th 2008 (08/08/08) - September 9th 2009 (09/09/09) - October 10th 2010 (10/10/10) - November 11th 2011 (11/11/11) - December 12th 2012 (12/12/12) When we see this again it will be in January 1st 2101, in which, lets face it, most of us probably won't live to see it (sorry about thaat, btw). It makes me sad to know this, but I guess it is what it is, am I right? Those who agree and understand what I just explain, like/reblog this post :)
8TH + 12TH synastry combo is CRAZY, I swear y'all, I'm done with karmic relationships, I QUIT
12TH SYNASTRY CULTURE 🪐
It's like, the house person is running away from the planet person, because it's just too much intensity for her to handle.
The 12th house is the occult, the part of the mind and soul that you want so badly to hide. It's the secrets you don't tell anyone.
So when any planet crashes here, it's like all its secrets are exposed to a stranger. And this can put fear in the person of the house. He will be mad at you because you can tell what he is thinking.
I remember scaring this guy with the things I could see of him. I could read every emotion on his face, read his mind, and what he really wanted.
It is impossible to escape the influence of the planet. You'll end up thinking about him during the day, or you'll end up dreaming about him.
It's suffocating, painful and karmic. My tip is not to run away from him, but to face your feelings right away.
Love ya
12TH SYNASTRY BE LIKE: Having a hole ass date in a dream, and then you wake up and you're still blocked by him??? Like, no one can tell me that astrology isn't real. I am living proof of that.
