House 5 · What you make for its own sake

Fifth house

The fifth house covers creativity, play, and expression that does not have to justify itself.

This is the house of making things. Not the professional version, the version you would still do on a free afternoon. Anything that exists because you wanted it to exist belongs here.

It also covers delight and risk of the enjoyable kind. Flirtation, games, performance, the willingness to be a little ridiculous in public.

Adults often let this house go quiet. It is worth noticing what happened to yours, and whether it went quiet by choice.

A planet in this house

A planet in the fifth house tends to want expression. It gets restless when everything in your life has to be useful.
