Eighth House
Eighth House of horoscope is house of Secrecy or Mysteries of the World. Whatever is hidden, occult and away from the common understanding of the world at large is a thing related to Eighth House. Again, it is opposite to Second House, so it will relate to those things which are opposite to things related to Second House. These are -
1. Second House is your family, Eighth House is family of your spouse. Second House is your wealth, eighth house is wealth of your spouse.
2. Eighth House is house of occult knowledge and hidden secrets like Astrology, Numerology, Tantrik acts etc.
3. It is house of things which are underground, like Gemstones, Coal, Petroleum, Agriculture etc. It also becomes house of places like Graveyards.
4. It is also a house of sudden events of life, which you don't plan, that's why it is so difficult to decode eighth house and that's what makes it favorite house for any Astrologer.
5. It is also a house which decides your longevity on earth.
6. As it is house of sudden events it becomes house of accidents, winning/losing in lottery or gambling or stock trading because they are all sudden events.
7. As it is house of occult knowledge, it automatically becomes the house of research because to decode any mystery, you need to put efforts in research over that subject.
8. It is also a house of transformation or death and rebirth. It means this house can transform a person into new being.
9. Additionally, it is house of Government Taxes.
So, all the mysteries of the world are hidden in this house.
Saturn is the Karaka of this house.
Hope this helps. Thanks,

2020-04-09 09:58:29Thanks for the article. I have a gentle question: In one of your celeb.. horoscope, it is said if there are more planets in 8th house this will be good for the occult and research, will this be true or work if 8th house(Libra) is empty however there are 5 planets aspecting the 8th house, including Sat from 6th house, Ketu from 12th; Ma, Ve, Me from 2nd House? Many thanks in advance!
