Childhood Astrology Through the Twelve Houses
3/12/20262 hr 14 min
Astrologer Ileana Reyes joins me to talk about childhood astrology, and how placements in the twelve houses are experienced early in life. While most astrological consultations focus on adults who have the autonomy to make their own choices, reading a child's chart offers a unique glimpse into their foundational environment, early developmental milestones, and raw temperament. The core of the conversation takes listeners on a step-by-step journey through the twelve astrological houses, specifically tailored to the experiences of children from birth through their early teenage years. Ileana breaks down how each house manifests differently in a child's life, from the 1st house representing physical vitality and tantrums, to the 3rd house signifying early speech and sibling dynamics, all the way to navigating peer groups in the 11th and processing big emotions in the 12th. Beyond the houses, we also dive into the vital ethics of reading children's charts. We discuss the importance of avoiding self-fulfilling prophecies, the profound impact of parent-child synastry, and how astrology can be used as an empowering tool to offer kids the exact support, creative outlets, and encouragement they need to flourish.

First 90 secondsChris Brennan· Host0:00
Hey, my name is Chris Brennan, and you're listening to The Astrology Podcast. Joining me today is astrologer Iliana Reyes, and we're gonna be talking about early childhood astrology. Uh, so hey, thanks for joining me today.
Iliana Reyes· Guest0:11
Thank you so much for having me on, Chris.
Chris Brennan· Host0:13
Yeah. I'm, uh, really excited to talk to you about this because this is an area that I haven't explored very much. Um, but I just did my whole episode on the fifth house in astrology, which is primarily about children, and we got, like, traces of this, but one of the things that came up that we didn't dive into as much as we could have is just how the houses show up from a perspective of a child, especially the first time you experience either a placement or a transit through one of the 12 houses. So that's what I wanted to talk to you about today because you specialize in this, and your YouTube channel is called Matriarch Astrology, and, um, this is part of your, your core focus as an astrologer, right?
Iliana Reyes· Guest0:54
Yes. I mainly am trying to help parents understand the early childhood and how we can help support. I feel like as we grew up, we could have used probably [laughs] some support, and it could have been beneficial for us. At least for me, for sure it would have been beneficial having that knowledge, um, especially for, like, creativity and things like that. And that's where it comes in with the houses.
Chris Brennan· Host1:20
Brilliant. Okay. Nice. Um, well, we'll get, we'll get into that today. I've done maybe one or two other astr- uh, episodes on, like, childhood astrology
