Eighth House

The Eighth House governs transformation, shared resources, death, rebirth, sexuality, the occult, inheritance, and other people's money. It is the house of deep merging — emotionally, financially, and sexually — and the profound changes that come from such intimacy. The sign on the Eighth House cusp and any planets within it reveal your relationship with power, trust, loss, and regeneration. The Eighth House is associated with Scorpio and Pluto (traditionally Mars) in the natural zodiac. A prominent Eighth House suggests a life marked by intense transformations, psychological depth, and encounters with the taboo. Transits to the Eighth House often coincide with inheritances, debts, psychological breakthroughs, endings that lead to new beginnings, and deepening of intimate bonds.
