House 8 in your birth chart

Key points

House 8 data pertains to your thoughts, behavior and events you attract that involve and influence other people’s money, loans, joint finances, gifts, legacies, taxation and death.

Its power score measures its influence as dominant, prominent, non-prominent or weak; and its harmony or discord score denotes a fortunate or unfortunate event trend. 

Its potential is validated by real-life experience.

****************

House 8 in your birth chart is the reference point for data pertaining to other people’s money, joint finances, your partner’s finances, inheritance, legacies, gifts, personal borrowings – interest you owe, taxes, money loaned to others – investments, money due or owed by others – interest, dividends, pensions, social security, insurance and death and those who have died. It corresponds to compartment 8 of your astral body.

House 8 is all about living on borrowed money, (mortgage, credit purchases), a debt lifestyle, debt management, financial backers – banks, building societies, financial institutions; the financial position of clients and customers, the ability of others to pay what they owe, fund raising and crowd funding – the funding of a project or venture by raising money from a large number of people who each contribute a relatively small amount, typically via the Internet.

The people associated with this house include financial backers, tax agents, debt collectors, undertakers and those who have died.

House 8 provides data pertaining to regeneration, renewal and death. When your physical body gets old, wears out, runs out of fuel, succumbs to disease or is involved in a fatal accident its electromagnetic form, which facilitates the coupling of your physical and astral selves, disintegrates and your astral body relocates to an astral plane where you continue to develop your intelligence and ability in a new realm of enhanced opportunity.

Minor and major events involving joint finances, borrowed money, loans, finances, insurance, taxes, pensions, gifts and/or death are house 8 events.

This is a non-people house and several planets located here can see the influence of people in your life reduced.

House 8 has an astrodyne power score

A planet in house 8 makes its department of life active but its relative strength and influence is measured by its astrodyne power score.  If it’s dominant or prominent other people’s money, inheritance and/or death will play a central role in your story. There’s a high level of thought-cell activity influencing what you think and do and working to attract minor and major events affecting these life-matters.

If non-prominent a reduced level of thought-cell activity scales down its influence; and if house 8 is weak its influence is subdued.

House 8 has a harmony or discord score

The functional status of house 8 – and the common thought-cell activity that’s working to influence your thinking and behavior and attract events pertaining to other people’s money, joint finances, financial backing, loans, inheritance, gifts and/or legacies – is measured by its harmony or discord score. 

A harmony score indicates that your house 8 thought-cell activity is harmonious and inclined to work to attract fortunate events involving joint finances, gaining financial support/backing from banks and money lenders, running a business on credit transactions and collecting debts. It reduces your potential to experience mortgage and insurance difficulties and problems with wills, gifts, legacies and those who have died. But there may be discord amid the harmony so the harmony is not absolute.

A discord score indicates that your house 8 thought-cell activity is discordant and inclined to work to attract unfortunate events involving joint finances, acquiring loans, running a business on a credit basis, lending, investments, collecting money owed by others – clients and customers, insurance, tax – avoidance/evasion, and/or legacies. It emphasizes the need for joint bank accounts. But there may be harmony amid the discord so the discord is not absolute.

The dysfunctional thought-cell activity requires your attention. It’s going to mess up your thinking and adversely affect the quality of your life and what you hope to achieve.

As a child and young adult your house 8 thought-cells were conditioned by environment and the thoughts and behavior you exhibited developed into a habit system.

Then through pleasant and painful experience you live and learn and new states of consciousness gradually developed which become the basis of your behavior and events affecting your joint finances, legacies, gifts, personal borrowings and loans in the future.
