Understanding the Third House: Symbolism and Chart Synthesis

In episode 465 astrologers Chris Brennan and Leisa Schaim do a deep dive into the meaning of the third house in astrology, with a comprehensive workshop analyzing over 100 birth charts of notable figures, revealing surprising insights into how the third house shaped their lives. The third house is associated with topics such as siblings, extended family, short distance travel, early education, and communication. We open the episode by talking about the significations of the third house, and then afterwards the bulk of the episode is divided into three main parts: The Ruler of the Ascendant in the third house The ruler of the third house in each of the 12 houses Each of the planets in the third house   After that we have some concluding remarks and then wrap up our deep dive into the third house! This is essentially three separate episodes, but we decided to release it as one long episode because then you can really see the totality of what the third house means by looking at all of the different ways it has manifested in people's lives. 3rd House Research Notes Booklet Dive deeper into the third house with our exclusive 75-page research notes booklet!
