Introduction to the Ninth House

The Ninth House, known as Dharma Bhava in Vedic Astrology, is one of the most auspicious houses. It governs luck, fortune, religion, spirituality, higher education, long-distance travel, philosophy, ethics, teachers, and father. It represents one's belief system and pursuit of higher wisdom and dharmic living.

Importance of the Ninth House Lord
