What it means
You want to create, play, fall in love, be with children; a passion is an important part of who you are. People know you by your hobby.
The flip side is boredom with routine and a pull toward entertainment at the expense of duties.
Not about you if you have no passions and entertainment seems a waste of time.
How to check it on yourself
Each statement below may turn out to be false about you — that’s how it’s written. Check it against your past, and write your answer down before you compare it with the chart. The first item checks the calculation itself, the rest — the interpretation.
If your Sun is in the 5th house
What should match. Your birth time falls in the middle third of the interval from sunset to true midnight. Sunrise and sunset for the day and city of your birth are in any astronomical calendar; true noon is exactly halfway between them, true midnight is twelve hours after noon.
When it’s not about you. The time on your birth record doesn’t fall in this window and is more than a quarter of an hour from its edge — then the wrong time, time zone or city went into the calculation, and the houses in the chart aren’t yours. This checks the calculation, not the interpretation.
If you have the Sun in the 5th house
What should match. Ask five acquaintances what you do “for yourself.” At least three will name the same hobby.
When it’s not about you. Three will not be able to name anything — then this is not about you.
Why the Sun’s house gives away your birth time and where to find true noon — on the page of all houses. How we check the rest — the site’s method.
