VACANT HOUSES
In astrology, there are 10 planets and 12 houses, so everyone has at least two houses vacant, not occupied by a planet. Usually when a house is unoccupied, it means that area of life is not of particular interest to you. Naturally a deeper reading of your chart is necessary to consider counterindicators to this general rule.

When a house is vacant, you may have completed the karma of learning from that house in past lifetimes or will deal with it in a future incarnation. Whatever the case, the areas of life indicated by the unoccupied houses do not energize you. For example, if you have a vacant 5th House, children (shown by the 5th house) may not be a source of vitality for you.

The idea is to notice which houses of your birthchart ARE occupied and begin spending time in those realms. Then you can allow yourself to grow and experience and be energized by those arenas in life you are vitally interested in and predestined to explore!
