The 5th house in astrology is symbolic of creativity, sexuality, and children. The reason all of these themes come together in the 5th house is due to the fact that they all of them are related to making or creating something outside of oneself. Creativity brings forth something new and imaginative. Your relationship to sexuality or how you express your sexuality can be a creative act or viewed as the reproductive act that creates babies. 

Having an emphasis of planets or lack of planets in the 5th house speaks more to what you make and create in life and less literally to how many children you will or will not have. When you are playing in the 5th house it is all about finding your creative spark, what enlivens you, and how you can bring your true identity forward. 

The focus of the 5th house is what unique experience do you want to share with others, what makes you special. The 5th house is also associated with affairs, flings, and romance due to the playful and often spontaneous nature of this area of the chart.
