The Fifth House of your astrological chart is ruled by Leo and the Sun. Astrologers look to this house for anything concerning children and athletics, or fun and games. The sign on the cusp of this house could describe how you relate to your children. Any planets within this house would also provide insight to your relationship with young people in your life.
I know someone with Jupiter, the planet of expansion and plenty, in his fifth house and he has seven children. Planets transiting this house may also indicate changes or areas to focus on with children. Pluto spent 18 years in my fifth house which neatly corresponded to when my kids were in school. Their school experience transformed me in many ways, from being a coach (also a fifth house thing) to a substitute teacher, a driver and cheerleader for their sports (5th house area).
Even if you don’t have kids, you have a fifth house which can represent what you find fun. Is Sagittarius on the cusp and you like to hike or explore in nature? Cancer on the cusp might mean you enjoy staying at home and working around the house or maybe going to the beach. Libra might mean you enjoy creating things, making beautiful art. Aries in this house could mean you enjoy competitive sports, which brings me to another thing the fifth house is known for…
A client of mine has Mars in Leo in her fifth house and to say she is competitive is an understatement. She enjoys any kind of sports that involve practice and perfection. She was a three time state champion in high school (this is where Leo comes in with the spotlight) and continued her athletics career in college. She can get grumpy if she isn’t active. It can be helpful to know your astrology chart and see how each part of it can influence who you are.
