VIII

8th House

House

The 8th house rules the territory where individual boundaries dissolve -- sex, death, shared finances, and deep psychological transformation. It governs inheritance, taxes, debt, insurance, and other people's money. On a deeper level, this is the house of crisis, catharsis, and the power dynamics within intimate bonds. Planets in the 8th house often indicate intense life experiences that catalyze profound growth. This house asks you to face what is hidden, merge with another, and emerge transformed.
