What It Means

The 8th house rules crisis, transformation, intimacy, shared money, inheritance, secrets and questions of life and death, and Pluto is the natural ruler of this area through Scorpio. So it's especially strong here. Your life may pass through serious changes, losses and rebirths, after which you become deeper and stronger. You're perceptive, see people's hidden motives and aren't afraid of the darker sides of life. Psychology, research, esoteric subjects, medicine, and questions of power and money attract you. In close relationships you need complete depth, passion and trust. Shared finances, inheritance and investments may play a big role, and here you show strength and strategic thinking. The challenge is wanting to control everything, distrust, obsession and fear of loss. At its best, this placement gives the ability to help people move through crisis and be reborn.

Love and Relationships

In love you seek complete union, passion and absolute trust. Superficial relationships don't interest you. Gradually learn to let go of control, speak about your fears and stop testing your partner.

Work and Money

Psychotherapy, psychiatry, surgery, investigation, finance, investing, insurance, estate law, crisis management and research suit you. You're strong wherever the deep and hidden must be worked with.

Generational or Personal?

Pluto's sign is shared by a generation, but the house is personal. In the 8th, its natural house, Pluto speaks especially powerfully in your individual story. Aspects to the Sun, Moon or Ascendant make transformation a central theme.

Strengths

  • Immense inner strength
  • The capacity for rebirth
  • Insight

Challenges

  • A need for control
  • Distrust
  • Fear of loss

Advice

Channel your strength into work that helps people through hard times. Put shared finances in writing. And go through your own crises with the support of a therapist and loved ones; you don't have to manage alone.
