this is a pretty damn good general view on 8th houses and the planets that occupy it.

http://totefee.tumblr.com/post/2715361846/planets-in-the-8th-house<BR>
Sun in the 8H: Your Sun here ties your ego and core personality to 8th house matters. You are very well aware of sex and power, and how the two tie together. But most importantly, you do value sex and intimacy. You??re not one to give up your power ( sex ) to anyone undeserving. Your life is marked by transformations. If something is not going well for you, it is easy for you to transform your life and work with what you got. You might have a —thang?? for power, whether it's in politics or just in your house. You like control, but that does not mean you like to control other people.If you have Sun in Leo or Libra or any other happy go lucky sign, you might have a darker or more mysterious, introverted thing about you, rather than being sunny and radiant.You are naturally drawn to mysteries, the taboo, supernatural, and psychology.

Moon in the 8H: No matter what your Moon sign is, you??re going to be a deep, yet complex and moody person. On the good side, you are deep and able to probe other people. You know when someone is lying and you don't take BS. It is like you have great intuition. On the down side, you can be possessive, jealous and moody. Your emotional life has intense ups and downs. You can be real mean when you want to be. If you have Moon in Aries or Sag, you??re likely to have a sharp tongue when you??re moody. It's best if people leave you the F8ck alone when you??re emotional, despite what your sign is in.

Mercury in the 8H: Your mind is tied to 8th house matters. Perhaps you like psychology, anthropology, criminal justice, anything relating to death and morality, Microbiology ( relating to disease and death ), or perhaps you just like working alone or in a biology. This is a good placement for psychology and indicates and interest in psychology. You like to know what makes people tick and you??re able to probe other people. Another placement is anthropology, which deals with the study of humans and their culture. Anthropology is different than sociology. Anthropology digs deep into taboos and culture, and the deeper meanings of why humans do what they do. Science, relating to Microbes and Biology, indicates an interest here. You might also like learning about the supernatural??_ ghosts, demons, and things that go bump in the night. You might like learning about as

Saturn in the 8H: I bet some people think that if they have this placement, they will die virgins. Well, that is not the case. In astrology, there are many ways things can manifest, but certainly not dying a virgin. Saturn in the 8H can indicate someone who is serious about sex and sexual matters, therefore people might PERCEIVE them as cold or frigid. There might be OCD issues here and if Saturn is paired with the Moon ( and esp if Moon in the 6H ) there might be eating disorder issues. Someone with this placement might have a deep fear of failure and have anxiety over it. There is good deliberation over taxes and money issues. Slowly and cautiously. There might be skepticism over the occult and supernatural.

Neptune in the 8H: Some say this placement might be associated with the supernatural, mediumship, seeing ghosts, spirits, etc. It's up to you to decide. Anyway, this placement is associated with a high level of intuition. Even if you don't see dead people, you really know what is up. You can feel energies/vibes from people easily. You can pick up if someone is a threat or not. Maybe if you don't see ghosts or spirits, you can feel when someone is watching you when no one is there. This is a placement for high creativity and inspiration. You may be interested in poetry, but also interested in fantasy and sci fi. You are a very deep person but you might get your feelings hurt easily.

Uranus in the 8H: Life is just expected for you. You may get into a lot of dangerous and unexpected things in your life. It's important for you to drive safely, always, and to always be aware of your surroundings. You may also inherit money unexpectedly. There is creative and artsy potential here. There is some intuition and supernatural experiences, but it comes and goes. Sexual style make be quirky. You might have some interesting ways of viewing sex.

Pluto in the 8H: Pluto is at —home?? here. These people like control, power, and privacy. They are extremely private about their sexuality??_ whether they are a virgin or not, how many people they??ve slept with, who they are with, who they like, etc. I know I don't like people knowing that info about me or not. I'm a very private person about intimate matters. Pluto is all about obsession and depending on what planet it has contact with will show where obsession is at. Pluto-Moon contacts esp when 8H and 6H can indicate an eating disorder or an obsession with food. These people can be obsessive in

Venus in the 8H: Even if you have sunny Venus in Gemini or Libra, you??re likely to have a possessive or jealous streak, even if you try to contain it or intellectualize it. Yes, sign does matter. However, in general, you do not tolerate BS and this can be —good?? for marriage partnerships. You might inherit a lot of money, or marry someone with money. Or whatever. You generally know when someone likes you or not, whether or not you act on the intuition. Generally speaking, you are loyal, and if you are not, it's only to piss the other person off. You can be hot or cold in relationships, but you??re able to switch affection OFF with a switch. There is intensity here, but more so in a Water sign or Fire sign.Taboos are associated with this placement ( like prostitution or being a pimp or porn star ) but also sexual frigidity is also associated with it. 8H does represent extremes.

Mars in the 8H: You have a very high sex drive, and even if you don't have sex a lot, you think of it a lot. You can be aggressive when it comes to sex and intimacy. You want it when you want it. This is also the deal with power. You like power, sex and money. Again, in society, this placement is more favorable in men than women, but there are women like this. Society frowns upon it. There might be fights over other people's possessions or you might fight with your siblings when Mom or Dad dies over who gets what.

Jupiter in the 8H: Does this mean you will live a long life? Of course not! But this is —good fortune?? or at least optimism with regards to this house. You might be in favorable situations where sexual relations and money relations are fair and just. You might enjoy to expand your mind on 8H matters, like psychology, the occult, death and dying, and rebirth. You might want to learn how other cultures see or view death and the occult. You??re open minded about the occult and the supernatural, but sometimes you may jump to conclusions.

i seem to understand that description of Neptune in the 8th of seeing "spirits" and/or "feeling" them too. It must be just a water house thing too. I love the 8th house for alot of things, and the ability to see through bullshit. however, when you love, you don't care and it is FATAL. It's fatal if the person you love is a cruel and horrible human being. It can go extreme. that's really bad.

The first line made me laugh cause I have Venus in Gemini, yet I low-key get jealous and territorial in relationships. I try to brush it off though as a joke.
I agree on everything (especially switching affection OFF when needed), but I cannot always tell when a woman is interested in me though.

yeah. supposedly it's "sunny" and happy go-lucky with air. *shrug* but being in 8th it can have those possessive and jealous streaks. If air venuses were in air houses, it'd be super detached and probably won't have any commitments with anyone. Just guessing. Of course this is just "focused" on that alone and not on any other aspects.

hmm 8th house can usually "tell", so maybe it's your other placements that contribute to the lack of energy you receive when someone likes you.

Yea, I'm water dominant so it makes me feel like I should pick up on it more with the intuition and all, but I have my Sun, Moon (9th) and Mars in Cancer located in the 10th house. We tend to second-guess ourselves.

More interesting description of him I could find with this:
Ruler of the 7th House in the 8th House

You are drawn to relationships that challenge you to grow and transform. In the process, you may unconsciously create challenges in your partnerships. These can take the form of "testing" your partner, although it's unlikely to be a deliberate process. .... Power struggles may be part of the picture. (see CA)

On the other hand isn't it redundant since he has his Sun in Scorpio?

I think you're being too literal here

"Sign on the cusp of H8 is cancer. -> die from cancer disease"


you are right. I could find nothing about that.

Instead: "When your 8th house cusp is in Cancer: Death at home... surrounded by loved ones... Could also be related to accidents in the home, food (obesity), breast illness or cancer, stomach issues."
That fits into:
wiki: "Frank Zappa died on Saturday, December 4, 1993, in his home with his wife and children by his side."

Venus in the 8H:

Or whatever.



I totally agree lol

I don't see the intensity but others apparently pick up on it. And I am oblivious when someone expresses interest. If you ask half of my exes, I am unfeeling. If you ask the other half I am over the top emotional. Extremism for sure.

If I plunge deep enough with you, everything goes. If not, you won't see that placement in my chart ever.

This is an extremely bad description... Which I don't agree with... It is way to extreme...

People do perceive me as cold and frigid sometimes, but I'm just very sensitive to sex, as it says, I take it seriously. It's a bit of a burden, sometimes I just want to have a one night stand! I have done obviously, I'm able to get over it and just have sex but sometimes I just can't and I back out. If I'm not feeling it, I'm not doing it. Nice post.

hey you know after looking at Abraham lincoln's chart. I know he's got alot of DETRIMENTS, Detriment sun, moon, mars, venus, mercury ect.

but if you look at houses.

Mars in the 8th.

(dignified)

Sun in 1st (exaltation)

Moon in 12th (intuitive, dreamy, sees far in the future, visionary, can recieve messages through dreams) Mercury Pisces in 1st (like Hitler's 1st house mercury but this time but displayed differently of course.)

lots of Pisces energy i notice, with Pluto Pisces touching all this planets. All of his Sag planets are in the 8th, with Uranus Scopio (exaltation)

shows that HOUSES play a bigger role in the whole scheme of things, it's the private and the secretive way. so interesting!!!
