The Second House
By Triana Èlan
December 1 - 7 , 2003
The second House (sector) in the birth chart is ruled by Taurus. Since
Venus rules Taurus, Venus also rules the second House. This House
governs things that are owned, things that you are born into, and your
sense of self worth. The sign this house falls under in your personal
chart will tell how you gauge your own worth and what is really
important to you. Any planets occupying the second House will add extra
emphasis to these matters.
Talents, inheritance, income level growing up, and how you measure your
worth all stem from the second House and its planets. If the planets in
the second house are afflicted (in a disharmonious aspect to other
planets), you have to work harder to earn what you think you are worth
and may require assistance. An afflicted second House can also signify
difficulties handling or stewarding money and other assets.
Self worth is a big issue for most of us, and the second House holds the
secrets to how we learned to value ourselves and by whom. Women are
especially receptive to and influenced by the second House and its
activities.
Where the first House governs our self image, the second House
determines how we feel about our self image. Self image is often what we
think we are made of; self worth shows what we really are made of. The
second house is, truly, the house of character and inner strength.
Aries (March 21 - April 20):
Now we move into a more basic and earthy
time for you, Aries...one by one, several planets will be moving into
Capricorn this month, bringing issues of family, home and hearth, and
your own learning process into focus. By the time Christmas rolls
around, you’ll find some surprising information about yourself and your
immediately family coming up. In the meantime, do some soul searching,
decision making. Your choices are what set up your future, one choice at
a time. These choices will ultimately effect your career environment.
Taurus (April 21 - May 20):
This week begins a slow inner planet march
into your fellow earth sign of Capricorn, signaling some new beginnings
for you in the area of what kind of career move you want. If you’ve been
lacking the energy or drive to move forward, this month’s influences
will give you some impetus. This month holds some lovely events for you,
so enjoy every moment and stay away from judging or jumping to conclusions.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20):
As this month progresses, you’re likely to be
feeling withdrawn; the sun is as far away from your sign as it can get,
so if you find your energy flagging, it’s real. Take it slow and don’t
make any promises you can’t keep. Other than these personal things, your
good company is in demand! Your popularity increases, so choose your
social commitments carefully. If others are asking you to give too much,
pull back. You don’t always have to say yes! They’ll love you anyway
because you’re soooooooo naturally cute!
Cancer (June 21 - July 22):
The month of December is going to see the
bases loaded in your opposite sign of Capricorn, highlighting
relationship issues. If you’re already in relationship, it’s likely you
and your sweetie will get an idea to launch a new venture. If you’re a
single Moonchild and searching for love, this month holds a lot of
promise for you; but you have to actually leave your house! Mars in your
fellow water sign of Pisces is ending its long occupation of that sign
so you’ll get a real boost of energy just in time for holiday
festivities. Go! Make some magic!
Leo (July 23 - August 22):
If you get any busier you’re going to blow a
gasket! How many people can you be all at once?? Now listen, Leo...a
very heavy Capricorn influence is going to dominate this month, and this
will put the spurs to you to get real and look twice at a few things.
You only have so much energy and now you need to ask for some time and
attention for yourself. Do that and the Holiday season will shine for
you. If you don’t, you may get the sniffles and miss all the fun!
Virgo (August 23 - September 22):
As we move into the lat month of the
year, we see several planets marching into Capricorn, the One In Charge.
This will take an enormous amount of weight off of you, if you have the
good sense to delegate. So what if it isn’t done the way you’d do it?
You can always shore up the details later...don’t fret. Just keep
smiling and feeding people. You do have the idea that if you don’t do
it, it isn’t done right...well don’t ruin your own party with that
attitude, sweetie.
Libra (September 23 - October 22):
You are longing for things of the
past, moments that made you all warm and fuzzy inside. This means you
need to spend some time alone and don’t look to others to create it for
you. You are the owner of those feelings, so you are the only one that
knows what you need. Make it happen! December sees an increase of
planets occupying Capricorn, which is just as bossy as you are (yes,
you!); if you don’t keep yourself on your rails, you may get into
protocol issues. We need all the magic we can get, so make some and smile!
Scorpio (October 23 - November 22):
Some of your plans may be overturned
due to the miscommunication with others that can occur this time of
year. Don’t get bent out of shape about it; you might want to stick with
the tried-and-true this year during the holiday season. Mars, which has
traveled for an abominably long time in Pisces, moves into its own sign
of Aries at mid-month, so you’re going to get a surge of energy and
confidence! Use it wisely and give some loved ones some good surprises.
Sagittarius (November 23 - December 20):
So now we move into your time
of the year, and your energy level is heightened. Archer, pay attention
to your body! You do have a tendency to push yourself too hard (when
you’re not being a total sloth, that is), so be sure you rest and
regroup. Your company will be in demand and of course there are birthday
parties to be had so celebrate yourself to the max. Without you there
would be no adventure.
Capricorn (December 21 - January 19):
This month sees lots of planets
eyeing your sign to move into, so you may be tempted to put yourself
under pressure to perform. Ah, don’t. Why bother...you know who you are
and don’t need to prove anything to anybody. You will likely be wanting
to start some new things, but make new projects few...you have some
loose ends to tie up! Of course that’s no fun. But you’ll feel so much
better! Get a new rug, will ya? A drab floor or carpet isn’t any fun to
walk on.
Aquarius (January 20 - February 19):
Holy cow, this month packs a
whallop for you! A movement of several planets into earthy Capricorn
brings some issues of your past into sharp focus (shall we say "in your
face?"). This is going to be a quirky holiday season peppered with many
unexpected events, so stay flexible and let someone else take charge of
being the host. This month you’re not in control, Life is. If your
choices have been wise, no problem. If impulse has been the driving
force for you, well...
Pisces (February 20-March 20) So Pisces, this is shaping up to be a
very nice month for you; you’ll be able to get an awful lot done without
feeling like you’ve expended too much effort. Isn’t it nice to surprise
yourself? At mid month, Mars leaves your sign after an extraordinary
length of time, so you’ll be infused with some new ideas for next year
as we wind it up and try to get the 21st Century on track according to
us, of course).
