Second House of Chart

At the traditional level, the second house represents wealth, death, speech, family, liquid assets, education, vision, nose, right eye, face, growth, extended family, taste buds, pre-primary education, second marriage, teachers, lawyers, bankers, stock and share, mortgages, bank balance, nails, and even the longevity of a life partner. The longevity of a life partner could be attributed to the fact that the second house is eighth from the seventh house, which is the house of marriage or life mate.
The second house represents the continuing development of our own identity and the formation of a more firm sense of self, commonly known as the personal ego. It extends beyond the tangible and material belongings commonly connected with this home. The standard understanding encompasses values, things, money, and resources, yet it goes much deeper.

The second house represents what we own or desire to acquire, as well as the resources and characteristics that contribute to our sense of worth, value, safety, and security. It is concerned with money and belongings, our attitudes toward the material world, how we earn money, and the development of talents and resources.

The second house is called the Marka House, and the second lord is a Markesh. If Ketu is placed here with the owner of the sixth, eighth, or twelfth house, and the second house lord is similarly affected, the native or his life partner may die during major or sub-periods of the second house lord or Ketu, respectively.

The precise sign and planets in the second house reveal information about the natural capacities and qualities that we can cultivate to boost our self-esteem and tap into our innate wealth.
Taurus, the second zodiac sign, rules the second house in a birth chart and influences an individual’s approach to personal values, possessions, finances, and self-esteem. This placement, based on practicality, emphasizes the importance of financial security and stability in a person’s life. They have a talent for amassing wealth and are driven to safeguard their material comfort. Taurus represents the pleasures of life, therefore it recommends a conscientious and cautious approach to financial concerns.

 The efforts are directed toward establishing a solid foundation of assets and resources through long-term planning and judicious investments.

Taurus is represented by a bull, which represents stability, confidence, self-worth, and self-esteem. Taurus is tranquil until disturbed, but when disturbed, it has the capacity to annihilate the opponent. Individuals born under Taurus in the second house are proud of their possessions and may acquire an interest in art, beauty, or valuable objects. This attachment represents their sense of identity and values.

The financial power of the individual and the meaning of the second house of the chart will be determined by the strength of Venus in the chart and its placement. It will also be influenced by the planets located in the second house. If Venus is strong and benefics are placed in the second house, a person will make money by fair means. If Venus is powerful but malefics affect Venus or the second house, the means of income may be unfair. If Venus is weak or located in the Trik houses in the chart, a person would be unable to generate adequate financial resources in his life.

Now we will look at different combinations that reflect the source of finances and financial prosperity of an Aries native.
