This
is the house of Sex. Well, what you might call "biological
energy"(just a metaphor, folks; don't take it literally).
Sex is just one possible outlet. This house shows one's sexual
tastes. The fifth house is romance. The eighth house is more
physical and basic. House eight also shows the effect of social
rules ( the rules of the society or social group you belong to)
on you as well as the effect you can have on the values of those
around you. It also indicates the access you may have to other
people's money and resources.
Sun
in the Eighth House:
usually means a dramatic, fiery approach to sex. If you are
going out with someone who has this, start with a back rub. The
Sun's house position is where we can fulfill ourselves. Well
it doesn't have to be exclusively through sex. You could also
do it through taking up a healing profession (the eighth house
covers rehabilitation) or management of other people's
resources (professions such as investment banking and the like).
Moon
in the Eighth House:
dinner
first is a must. Cuddling helps. There is an emotional need to
heal and nurture. Moon in the second house wants to accumulate
its own money and possessions. Moon in the eighth gives an
emotional need to manage and control the resources of others.
Mercury
in the Eighth House:
will never be turned on by a silent person. Talk first. Lots of
talk. Mercury in the second house talks and thinks about money.
Mercury in the eighth talks and thinks about sex, health
(rehabilitation), and other people's money and resources.
Venus
in the Eighth House: needs
charm. Put them in beautiful surroundings. Venus in the second
house wants to enjoy luxurious possessions. Venus in the eighth
house wants those possessions to be provided by a someone else.
Mars
in the Eighth House:
planet
of action. They'll put the moves on you. Be prepared for lots
of physical activity. One exception. If their Mars happens to be
in the sign of Gemini, expect the original minuteman (or woman).
Those with this placement have to be extra careful with credit
cards (Mars is an impulsive shopper and the eighth house is
other people's money; this includes credit matters).
Jupiter
in the Eighth House:
is generally free and open in the sexual area. There is a
tendency to be "turned on" by foreigners or those from
totally different backgrounds. Credit can come too easily here.
Watch out for a tendency to borrow too much. When it comes to
social values, Jupiter is usually conventional and insists that
the rules be obeyed---by others, not necessarily by they
themselves
Saturn
in the Eighth House:
wants control. I call this one the "I tie you up, you tie
me up" position. No, Saturn here does not deny sex. It just
wants to plan and control it and is generally not spontaneous.
Saturn here can cause difficulties and delays with credit
matters and inheritances. Because of early problems in this
area, those with Saturn in the eighth house are frequently
sticklers about these things. If you have Saturn in the eighth
house, you probably manage other people's money better than
you manage your own and are firm on social rules.
Uranus
in the Eighth House:
never likes to do the same thing twice in a row. I call this one
the "But Honey, we did the chandeliers last night"
position. This one tends to break social rules and taboos on
principle. Of course, after the old rules are overthrown, Uranus
wants to replace them with new rigid rules of its own making.
Neptune
in the Eighth House:
two
glasses of wine maximum and this one is yours. If you've
business partners with a Neptune in the eighth house person, YOU
manage the money. If you yourself have this placement, learn to
watch your partners. Neptune is where we get into trouble
because we don't want to be bothered by something that not
"spiritual" (reality).
Pluto
in the Eighth House:
I hope you've in great physical shape and your medical
insurance is paid up. You'll need that if you get involved
with a Pluto in the eighth house person. Those with Pluto here
have to take care that sexual activity does not become
compulsive. When it comes to other people's money or
partnership resources, take care to avoid "power
trips", to avoid underhanded methods to seize control just
to feel strong.
