Houses
The 12 Houses of astrology are symbolic of the all the departments that make up human life. The planets and zodiac signs will manifest themselves most strongly in the sphere of life represented by the House in which they fall on your chart. Houses are not "energies" like the elements or planets, nor do they color the expression of energies like the zodiac signs do. The houses are WHERE these energies are most likely to manifest. The houses are the fields of experience, not the experience themselves.
Saturn in 8th House
Most fears can be traced back to a fear of death: fear of the unknown, fear of intimacy, fear of surrendering, fear of closeness and separation... These are all traced back to the fear or the inevitable: leaving this mortal body and moving onto the next realm.
Your Saturn placement is deeply wrapped up in the deep, the dark and the hidden. It encompasses topics that are often taboo or feared, such as sexuality, intimacy, taxes, other people's money, death, trauma, crisis, and the occult. You may face fears or lessons related to these uncomfortable aspects of life that we all encounter.
Money represents energy, and for you, Saturn in the 8th House signifies navigating the realm of other people's energy. Money can symbolize emotional dependence or freedom. This may manifest as a fear of taking on debts or struggles with inheritance, taxes, or adapting to the changing monetary paradigm.
Regarding intimacy, vulnerability, and sexuality, you have various ways of expressing these aspects. One common pattern is to disconnect from the emotional side of sexuality and engage in superficial and promiscuous connections. This behavior often arises from a fear of forging deeper emotional bonds with others.
You are on the brink of heightened states of consciousness, teetering on the edge before plunging into the unknown and the vast potential of pure energy. Deep skepticism, possibly spanning lifetimes, may hold you back. But once you release your resistance and embrace your own symbolism, you will discover the ability to manifest miracles in your life and the lives of others.
Reflect on how your fears surrounding death and the hidden facets of life influence your ability to fully embrace intimacy and financial abundance. Approach these fears with curiosity and a willingness to explore the depths of your own being. How can you navigate these challenges with a sense of wonder, fostering variety and uniqueness in your experiences?
