What the 3rd house governs
The 3rd house rules courage, siblings, effort, communication, short travel. Read it through three things: the sign on the cusp, any planets sitting in it, and the condition of its lord elsewhere in the chart. A house is rarely judged by occupancy alone — an empty house is not an empty area of life.
