The 5th House
(creativity,romance,expression)
The Fifth House represents the field of experience in which you are challenged to keep in touch with the essential joys of life. That process involves pleasures... But also keeps your balance in the face of temptation!
Pleasure... That's Fifth House territory.
It's as though God marched you off the end of the cosmic diving board with the words... "Go down there and try to have a good time!"... That sounds pretty lightweight... But think about it... Feeling good in this world isn't so easy!.. We've got a lot of madness/wackyness goin' on around us.
Not to mention disease, taxes, mosquitos, cars that won't start.
How do we feel real pleasure here on planet Earth?...
While Alone... The "pleasures of the flesh" can't cut the mustard... Money, Alcohol, Orgasms... They help, but they're not enough... The 5th House is the search for depth and meaning in our personal lives.
Just look at the usual life expectancy of a "purely physical relationship"... (pretty empty)...
Where to turn?... To the pleasures of the mind, the heart, the soul!... It showcases "The Joy of Learning" and being able to share those insights with others... It is the Spiritual High similar to athletic excellence or "The bliss of meditation"...
But perhaps most of all... The sheer pleasure of creative self-expression... It offers joy... And it warns of the addictions that can overcome you if you miss that joy... Or seek it all in one place.
