Also, this planet governs teaching, listening, talking, writing, learning, observing, and reading. It also forms the link between your senses and your thought process. It enables the reproduction of information and actions after sorting information out.

Thus, the third house is the house of information circulation and intelligence. This house helps you form significant relations with your colleagues, classmates, siblings, friends, parents, and partners of all kinds. The third house is ruled by the energy of Gemini.

Is your Third House really empty?

If your third house of siblings, communication, and early education is empty, does it mean you have no siblings, or you do not have a strong urge to learn? No, it does not necessarily mean this. You have to look at which zodiac is ruling the cusp of your house to approach this area of your life. It is not possible that this area of your life is empty. We all have these 12 houses and areas in our lives. The zodiac sign on the third house cusp is mostly and natural Gemini, though it could be some other zodiac sign too. As Gemini naturally rules the third house, there is an extra emphasis on the third house area of communication, siblings, early education, gaining knowledge, and expressing yourself. You will have an overactive mind as Gemini is brainy. Also, you will have a good relationship with your siblings, if you have any. You will be active in high school and will participate in various activities. Thus, you will approach all these areas of your life through the lenses of Gemini.

Also, often the planets keep transiting through your houses. Some planet might stay as a guest in your third house and aid you in good communication and partnerships for some time. However, if this planet is malefic, it won’t generate good results.
