The 3rd house in Lal Kitab: the house of courage and brothers
It covers courage, younger siblings, effort, short journeys and the hands. Owner: Mars.
The 3rd house is where effort and nerve live. Mars owns it, and Lal Kitab reads it through the brothers: a planet here shows how the person stands with siblings and how much they can do with their own hands.
Lal Kitab often treats the 3rd as the guard of the 9th and the 11th, the houses of fortune and gains: courage spent well here opens both.
