EIGHTH
HOUSE URANUS
The
uncovering of secrets -
The House of Investments
The field of renewal and
release
Elimination.
The extraction of essences. Expenditures. Death and legacies. Other people’s
possessions. Business corporations. The
stock market. Taxes. Sex and regeneration. Research. Restoration.
Psychoanalysis. The partner’s resources. Inheritances. Insurance.
People
with Uranus in the eighth house have a consuming desire to create changes in
the substances with which they work, even though destruction may be a
necessary prelude to regeneration. Often they are intrigued by astrology,
parapsychology, and the occult sciences, which stress peoples need to effect
an alchemical transmutation of their earth-grown nature. This position favors
chemistry, atomic research, and medical investigations. It may bring an
unexpected legacy.
From
the financial/investment point of view, there may be a simple,
couldn’t-care-less attitude when Uranus is placed in the eighth house. If
the individual has money it will be enjoyed, but if he or she hasn’t, so
what? It may be that lessons will have to be learned and a more conventional
view adopted (although there is something to be said for such an
unmaterialistic outlook). A classic interpretation of someone with Uranus in
the eighth house would be the individual giving away an inheritance to a
charity that works for the relief of suffering or starvation.
Sometimes
financial reverses spark the determination of these individuals to penetrate
nature’s veil of circumstance and lay bare the secrets of sex, death, and
immortality.
This
is a complex placing; as well as having financial overtones, there are deeper
references to the sexual attitudes and appetites and the way in which the
subject reaches, psychologically, for sexual fulfillment. They will sometimes
be very responsive and need much satisfaction, while at other times the cool,
unemotional side of this influence will predominate.
This
person may analyze their sexually oriented problems to an almost obsessive
degree, yet never actually resolve them; perhaps they don’t want to.
