Significations of Houses in Mundane Astrology

Mundane Astrology deals with the planetary influences through signs and planetary periods in the charts of nations, cities, organizations, corporations, business organizations, etc. etc. It covers objectives and goals of nations, their wealth, political stability, financial position, development, relationship with other countries/nations, natural calamities, public health, infrastructure development, national income, spiritual pursuits followed by its people, etc.
The impacts are seen through the houses which, govern certain specific aspects of national life/organization life; through the signs which show the level of influence; and the planets which show their results through their placement in the chart, their strength, their functional nature and their relationship with other planets/houses through conjunctions and aspects. The influences are seen particularly which are either close to the most effective points of the various houses or through those houses, which contain mooltrikona signs of various planets.  The planetary influences for the countries are also seen through the charts of the rulers/chief political executives at different points of time in the life of a nation.  In fact the charts of nations and the charts of the rulers/chief political executives work in consonance with each other.
