Out of the dark comes light. You’re often flung into moods of creative despair, where only fatalism prevails; but, when the clouds pass over, the sun which then shines is truly inspirational and causes the most fantastic forms of life to generate and flourish.
The eighth house is the house of taboo. It represents the area of life which is hidden and avoided. Sex, death, the occult, mysticism and scandal are all the domain of the house ruled by Scorpio. Uranus here can attract you to these areas of life, can create a fascination and a fear; it can also throw you suddenly into issues relating to these themes. Part of you wants to explore the darker side of life. You do like to investigate what most people either accept and keep hidden or actually hide themselves away from. There is an excitement for you when your mind roams under the surface of everyday ‘normal life’.
There can be complications or sudden changes regarding the finances of other people and your own joint financial situation. There is usually sudden windfalls or money from unexpected sources when Uranus is in the eighth house, particularly from inheritance or insurance.
You have strong psychic feelings and a keen intuition. You perhaps have unconventional ideas about life, sex and death, which you do not necessarily reveal. The afterlife is a great mystery for you and you may seek to probe for answers. The occult sciences in general may intrigue you. You may experience difficulties through nervous tension. Sudden loss or gain could come about with other people’s resources. There can be an unexpected inheritance or financial gain through unusual sources. Be careful around electricity and machinery. An interest in healing, perhaps through the laying on of hands, attends this position. You may have entertained thoughts of suicide in earlier years.
