The popular aphorism states that truth is born in an argument. I do not know whether truth is always only one and only, as everyone has his or her own truth, based on personal views and experience. However, it is true that a dispute/discussion is the best way to hear the real thoughts, opinions and views of another person, and those that could be most useful at that.
Today’s article is about how to enter into constructive discussions and disputes so that they are beneficial. Each of us has the ability to give to others something specific in the form of an opinion or idea. Therefore, when involved in a discussion it is better for us to use them in it. Then we feel that others are listening to us, finding our suggestions or thoughts useful, and that we have a contribution and others can learn something from us.
The ninth house in the horoscope describes one’s personal truth of life, actual thoughts, opinions and views. This house defines the ways that lead to a favourable solution to every problem, one’s ability to obtain and pass on knowledge and wisdom, and how to benefit from every discussion or controversial situation. The third - ninth house axis is called the axis of communication, education, of the skill to listen to others (and hear them), express one’s views and concepts so that others will hear them, the result of all this being a constructive discussion.
The ninth house in the horoscope is essential in connection with this topic, namely how to enter into a constructive discussion. A constructive discussion requires you to be able to listen, extract what is beneficial from the ideas of others, participate only where you can be useful, as the most favourable solution for all will be born in this way. Not surprisingly, judiciary and people who are committed to creating laws aimed at finding the right solution fall into the symbolism of the ninth house.
