House 3
Communication and close surroundings
The third house describes how you communicate, learn and get around day to day. It covers siblings, neighbors, messages, early schooling and short trips.
The third house is your immediate environment: the street you live on, the people you see every day, your siblings and cousins. It covers basic learning, reading and writing, and the way you exchange information. Planets in the third house often give an active mind and a need to talk. Mercury is comfortable here and makes you curious about everything; Mars can bring a quick, sometimes combative tongue; Neptune a storyteller’s imagination. A third house with no planets describes a quieter relationship with these themes, not their absence: look at the sign on the cusp and its ruling planet to understand your style of communication.
