The twelfth house encompasses the unconscious, the invisible, the secretive, hidden enemies, and the sorrow. Due to this unconscious state, we easily overcome our failures, and it shapes up our victories. Due to these unconscious states of things and events in our life, we can portray them deceptively as they are not visible to the view of others.

Here we deal with our deepest secrets, worst fears, and darkest desires. This most dangerous house in your chart has Neptune as the ruler planet. Pisces is the zodiac natural ruler of this house.

The twelfth house brings to the surface our deeper institutions and thought processes. It unleashes our deepest beliefs. It deals with our dreams and is responsible for the dreams we have. It also has a role in our spiritual world.

If you have any gut feeling, it means your guardian spirits or angels are trying to tell you something, and it is often true.

Also, if you have the presence of malefic planets in your twelfth house, you shall avoid being near wild animals. However, if your planets are beneficial, then you can associate with wild animals.

Moreover, the individuals with malefic planets in the twelfth house shall not use a lot of alcohol or drugs as they can become addicts, which will sabotage their health.
