2nd House

Author: Alison Price – Updated: March 2025

Houses

2nd House

There are always twelve houses in each chart. You have a second house and that’s the house we’re looking at today.

2nd House Chart Position

Type of House

The second house is a succedent house which means it supports the angular house that it comes after and to which it is adjacent. In this case that is the 1st house or Ascendant you in others words you.

Hemispheres

The second house is found below the Ascendant Descendant axis, or the horizon, in the Northern hemisphere and this suggests it is more of a private house. The second house is in the Eastern hemisphere, to the left of the Midheaven IC line, which suggests it is concerned with “self.”

Quadrant

The second house is within the first quadrant, which is the private / self-quadrant.

Triple Division

The second house is in the first triple division which means that it is concerned with issues of “Me.“

Second House

Themes

As always, there are several themes related to the second house. The impact and importance of these house themes, or affinities, will be modified by the full second house complex in which you will consider:

The sign on the cusp of the second house.
Aspects to the second house cusp degree.
The planets that rule the sign on the second house cusp.
Any natal planets in the second house.
If there is an intercepted sign within the second house.
Any points in the second house like the Lunar Nodes, or the Part of Marriage or the Part of Fortune.
If your prenatal eclipse is in the second house.
Any current transits to your second house including lunations and eclipses which will unfold later.

Let’s have a look.

Possessions

Collections

The second house in astrology governs your moveable possessions and personal collections.

Ownership

It reflects not only the material things you accumulate, but also your relationship with ownership and the things you cherish on a physical level.

Wealth

Your Attitude Towards Money

This house plays a crucial role in revealing your attitude toward money and finances.

Earning Potential

It highlights how you manage your income, your ability to generate wealth, and your overall earning potential.

Attracting Credit

It also sheds light on your capacity to access financial resources, such as the credit you can secure or the investment opportunities you might attract.

Saving

It suggests how you save. Beyond mere wealth accumulation.

Spending

The second house also speaks to your spending habits.

Donations

Who you give money to, including charitable donations, giving or financial support that you offer to others is shown in your second house.

Discover some more about the money houses.

Self-worth

Self-esteem

On a deeper level, the second house reflects your personal self-worth and self-esteem.

Self-value

It reveals how much you value yourself, not just in financial terms but also in how you perceive your own abilities and contributions to the world.

Values

Priority Values

This house also explores your core values—the principles that guide your decisions and actions. It signifies that which you hold dear and anything that you prioritize over and above material wealth.

Personal Standards

In this way, the second house goes beyond money. It illustrates what you truly value more than financial gain. This can be integrity, relationships, experiences, or personal freedom.

Overarch

I’ve often said that the two questions that astrology is always get are about love and money. As the second house is the primary house pertaining to money, it’s where you earn your money when you go out and work for the man. It’s a very important house to understand because I can guarantee you that all of your clients are going to ask you about money.

Planets in the 3rd House

Author: Alison Price – Updated: February 2025

3rd House Planets

Natal Planets

There are 12 astrological houses in every chart, so everyone has a 3rd house which I’m going to talk about, and specifically, when each of the planets is placed, or tenants, there.

How Many Planets

Each chart is different. You can have many, a few, a singleton or zero planets in the 3rd house, but if you do have a planet or two, you want to understand them. Briefly the 3rd house governs communication, siblings, early learning and short trips. Each planet in the 3rd house shapes how you think, interconnect and engage with your immediate world. When a planet resides in the 3rd house, it influences how you think, express yourself and connect with those around you. Let’s explore how each planet’s energy, when it is in the 3rd house, shapes up to express itself in line with the houses’ themes.

Sun in the 3rd House

Harmonious Sibling Relationships

With the Sun here, your siblings, cousins, or peers play a central role in your life. You likely have strong, positive relationships with them and may even take on a leadership role within your family or local community. Communication is vital to your sense of self and you enjoy expressing your thoughts with confidence.

Moon in the 3rd House

Emotional Learning and Nurturing Education

The Moon brings emotion and intuition to your learning and communication style. Your early schooling environment was likely nurturing and teachers or caregivers may have played a significant role in shaping your emotional well-being. You express yourself with warmth and may feel deeply connected to childhood memories, siblings, or familiar surroundings.

Mercury in the 3rd House

Curious and Concerned with Public Perception

Mercury enhances your intellect, curiosity and communication skills. You are inquisitive, quick-witted and enjoy gathering information. However, you may also worry about how others perceive you particularly within your neighborhood or peer group. “What will the neighbors think?” is a common thought. You are highly aware of social dynamics and may overthink small interactions.

Venus in the 3rd House

Harmony in Sibling Relationships and Pleasant Communication

Venus in this house brings charm, grace and diplomacy to your interactions. You likely have a loving bond with a sister or female relatives and enjoy pleasant conversations. You could fall in love with the boy or girl next door. Your communication style is artistic, kind and diplomatic making you skilled at maintaining peace in your everyday interactions.

Mars in the 3rd House

Direct and Assertive Communication

Mars in the 3rd makes you bold, assertive and sometimes confrontational in speech. You are energetic in debates and discussions and may have a tendency to use strong language or sharp words. Sibling rivalry or tension may be present, but your passion and enthusiasm drive you to speak your mind without hesitation.

Jupiter in the 3rd House

Optimism and Faith in the Community

Jupiter brings expansion, optimism and wisdom to your communication and local environment. You have a deep belief in the strength of your community and may enjoy teaching, mentoring, or sharing knowledge. Even your street name is likely to be optimistic. Your interactions are positive and inspiring making you a natural storyteller or motivator.

Saturn in the 3rd House

Responsibility for Siblings and Structured Thinking

Saturn’s presence here instills a serious, disciplined approach to communication and learning. You may have taken on responsibilities for your siblings or had a strict early education. While you value clear, logical thinking, you may sometimes struggle with self-expression or feel restricted in communication. It is likely that you have to manage or babysit, your younger brothers and sisters.

Uranus in the 3rd House

Unconventional Thinking and Modern Environment

With Uranus here, you have a unique, forward-thinking mind and may live in a modern or unconventional neighborhood. Your communication style is inventive and unpredictable and you thrive on exploring new ideas and technologies. This is an indication of a lateral thinker. You may also have unusual sibling relationships or experience sudden changes in your local environment.

Neptune in the 3rd House

Dreamy Communication and Connection to Water

Neptune brings imagination, intuition and creativity to the 3rd house. You may have a poetic or mystical way of expressing yourself and can sometimes drift into daydreams. You might also feel a connection to water in your local area such as swimming in a nearby pool, lake, or ocean. Be mindful of misunderstandings, as Neptune can cloud direct communication. Here the postman will deliver your mail to the guy next door in error.

Pluto in the 3rd House

Deep Understanding of Siblings and Powerful Words

Pluto gives you intense, transformative energy in the realm of communication. You have a profound understanding of your siblings and local environment often sensing hidden emotions beneath the surface. Your words carry power and you may be drawn to research, investigative journalism, or uncovering secrets.

Chiron in the 3rd House

Healing Through Teaching and Local Connections

Chiron in the 3rd house suggests past wounds related to communication, siblings, or early education. However, it also gives you the ability to heal others through teaching, mentoring, or sharing your experiences. This placement indicates that you may teach short classes, perhaps piano or math or whatever your jam is, to help the local kids. You may find fulfillment in assisting your community or guiding those around you through wisdom gained from your own past struggles.

The 3rd House

Author: Alison Price – Updated: February 2025

The 3rd House

This time I’m looking at another of the twelve houses and that is the 3rd house. The 3rd house is part of basic natal astrology as houses fall under the four cornerstones of chart interpretation, which are signs, planets, houses and aspects. As an aspiring astrologer, it makes sense for you to understand which areas of life are represented by each house. Then if your client comes with a question about say, the people next door, you know exactly to zoom into the 3rd house for some insights of their relationship with their neighbors.

More on PLANETS in the 3rd HOUSE

Strong 3rd House Criteria

I believe a strong third house is one in which:

There are at least three planets, stellium or nay.
The sign on the cusp of the 3rd house is ruled by the chart ruler, the Sun (Leo) or the Moon (Cancer).
There is a focal planet in a major aspect pattern such as a T-square, yod, Thor’s hammer (Finger of the World) as this planet is at the sharp end and draws attention.

You can listen to our podcast episode on the 3rd house.

The 3rd House in Astrology

Type of House

The 3rd house is a cadent house, meaning it can be a quieter place.

Hemisphere Placement

Northern Hemisphere

The 3rd house lies below the horizon, making it part of the private, introspective side of your chart in the Northernhemisphere.

Eastern Hemisphere

This house falls on the self-oriented left side of the chart, highlighting personal perspectives and independent thinking of the Eastern hemisphere.

Quadrant Position

The 3rd house is part of the 1st quadrant, emphasizing personal development and self-awareness.

Triple Division

Located in the 1st triple division (“me”), the 3rd house contributes to self-expression through speech, writing and thought processes related to what you want..

Themes of the 3rd House

General

The 3rd house in astrology governs communication, learning and everyday interactions. It represents how you engage with the world on a daily basis, including your relationships with siblings, neighbors and your local environment. I’m going to share some main themes of the 3rd house now:

Siblings and Extended Family

The 3rd house reflects your relationship with siblings, cousins and those in your family of the same generation to you. It can indicate whether you have a strong bond with your brothers and sisters or if there are challenges in these connections. This house also represents sibling rivalry, cooperation and shared experiences growing up.

Neighborhood and Local Community

This house is closely tied to your immediate surroundings, including your neighborhood, local community and even your neighbors. It shows how involved you are in community activities, whether you feel connected to your surroundings and your general experience of daily life in your local area.

Early Education and Learning Style

The 3rd house reveals your early schooling experiences, the way you learned as a child and your interactions with teachers. It also relates to primary education, school friends and how easily you absorbed information. If you struggled in school or excelled in certain areas, these patterns can be seen in this house.

Travel

Short-distance travel and running errands fall under the 3rd house. It reflects your habits regarding short trips, weekend getaways and how you navigate your city or town. Traditionally the astrological definition of “short distance travel” is as far as a horse can go in one day which I believe is about 50km (31 miles) give or take a whicker. Whereas the 9th house, “long distance travel” represents journeys of more than 50km (31 miles), or further than the distance which a horse can trot in a day including international travel.

Weekend Away

A weekend away, less than 50km (31 miles) distance and staying inside your country, is 3rd house travel. If your weekend away crosses an international border, it is a 9th house experience, even if you travel less than 50km (31 miles).

Commuting and Transportation

This house describes how you move through your local environment and you when you are out-and-about beetling around near home. It reflects your habitual routes and how you navigate your city or town. It also covers routine trips such as grocery runs, school drop-offs and visiting nearby places like schools and libraries. Your usual mode of transport vehicle be it skateboard, bicycle, roller blades, taxi, Uber or your car in particular, is represented by the 3rd house.

Communication Style

The 3rd house plays a major role in how you express yourself, whether through speech, writing, texting, or on social media.

It represents:

How you speak in conversations.
Hesitations, lisps, stuttering and the use of filler words – like, ah, um and er.
Your listening skills.
Your preferred communication methods, such as phone calls, emails, or quick texts.
How you interact on social media platforms and nowadays with your emoji use 😊, tweeting or messaging.

A strong 3rd house suggests an active mind, curiosity and ease in social interactions, while challenges here may indicate some difficulty in expressing thoughts clearly.

Extend Yourself

Natal

If you are trying to understand the 3rd house here are some of my ideas on how to extend yourself into understanding more.

Using your birth chart and your astrology journal, please do the following:

Write “The 3rd House” at the top of the page.
List any planets in your 3rd house.
List any points in your 3rd house (Lunar Nodes or the Part of Fortune).
Note the sign on the cusp of the 3rd house.
Note the house planetary ruler (the planet(s) that rule the sign on the cusp of the 3rd house).
Write a brief interpretation of your 3rd house. Mention the sign on the cusp, whether there is an intercepted sign within the house, any planets or points within the house and at this point you can look to your third house ruler’s complex and see how well it is placed (or not) in your chart.

Extend Yourself Further

Transits

Find the next planet that will enter and transit your 3rd house.
Note the date of the house ingress (when it enters the 3rd house).
Note the date of the house egress (when it leaves the 3rd house).
If you have planets in your third house, find the exact dates for the conjunctions from the selected transiting planet to your 3rd house planets.
Write a brief interpretation of this transiting planet and explain how you may expect it to express itself in your life (250 words).

Book Recommendations

Books

Here are a few books about the 3rd house and houses in general.

Overarch

Keep in Touch

I think that the 3rd house inspires us to embrace curiosity, communicate with clarity and foster meaningful connections within our daily lives. It encourages the origin of our lifelong learning, open expression and active engagement with the world around us. The 3rd house is not the first place you would likely look in any chart reading, but it will add support and insights to the main themes shown in the chart as a whole.
