What are the Houses in Lal Kitab?

There are two types of houses in a horoscope. One is Soya Ghar and the other one is Pakka Ghar. Soya Ghar means that the planet/s located there are weak in your chart. This house can bring bad results for you, but if you work hard, you will be successful at the end of it all. On the other hand, Pakka houses mean that planets located there are strong in your birth chart and produce very good effects as compared to soya houses (where planets are weak). This house brings positive results but may take some effort on your part to achieve those results

Soya Ghar

If any planet is weak in your birth chart, your life is not comfortable, full of struggle, and a little bit difficult. The presence of Soya Ghar means you will have to struggle through life because of some reason, but you will be successful in the end. Everything that happens to you is happening for a good reason.

Pakka Ghar

A Pakka house is where a planet is strong, and it has all the blessings of the respective planet/s. It produces very positive effects as compared to soya houses (where planets are weak). You can achieve much more with your hard work in these houses, and results would come easily to that area of life represented by this house.
