Empty houses in the birth chart

Do you have empty houses in your birth chart? No need to worry, this isn’t necessarily a bad thing, in fact, there isn’t such thing as an empty house.

Remember- the cusp is the imaginary line that separates a pair of consecutive signs in the zodiac or houses in the horoscope.


For example, let’s say you don’t have any planets in your 7th house, but the sign of Sagittarius is on that 7th house cusp.


An empty house is nothing to fear. In fact it’s actually pretty common. It doesn’t mean their isn’t any action there, it just means that it’s not an area in your life where the main focus is. There isn’t a struggle there, and that can be a very good thing.
