The 12th lord in each house

Chapter 24 gives the result of the lord of every house placed in every house. These are the twelve for the 12th. The text adds that results come in proportion to the planet's strength (24.145–148), and where one planet owns two houses whose results clash on the same matter, both are cancelled (24.146).
