SECOND HOUSE PLUTO

  The House of Possessions - The field of prosperity

Sense of values.  Earned income.  Basic security.  Money and worldly goods.  The physical substance of the body.  The desire to accumulate personal resources.

A powerfully aspected second-house Pluto can give a passion for wealth, but it does not necessarily provide the means or the incentive to acquire this wealth legitimately. There is a need for strict integrity in money matters, since this position can show an obsessive craving for material enrichment.

Financial problems can result from sexual misadventures and from neurotic attitudes toward money as a symbol of personal potency. These individuals often prosper in ventures having to do with mining and research. There may be something fateful about the way their riches are gained or lost.

This placing usually denotes excellent business potential. If the chart as a whole veers in this direction, the chances are that the subject will be keen to work in business, perhaps starting from scratch and building up an individual "empire", or will simply make a lot of money. Sometimes, however, this tendency can get out of control, with the individual becoming obsessed with making money.

The powers of concentration are usually good when Pluto is in the second house, and may help to stabilize any individual who tends to have their head in the clouds.

Determination and the will to succeed are usually present, especially if other areas of the chart also indicate these qualities. A great deal of psychological satisfaction will be gained from collecting and owning possessions. Unfortunately this tendency can extend to the subject's attitude towards his or her loved one who may well be thought of simply as yet another possession.

The emotional life will be intense and passionate. Indeed, Pluto's influence from this house often enhances the sensual expression, thereby making the individual a good lover
