subject: Absolutely Psychic Network - Astro Chart Part 34 [print this page]


Libra energy is always facilitating and responsive,

assuming the appropriate reaction or response to any

question or statement. This is certainly the social sign,

par excellence. The affairs of the house with Libra on the

cusp indicate where your child may enjoy working with a

close pal; this may also be where she must learn lessons in

cooperation. Libra can tie in the theme of beauty and

diplomacy into the affairs of the house whose cusp it is on

Eighth House: Pain, Sharing, Attitudes toward Sex

The 8th house is traditionally the house of death and

regeneration. This is the house of surgery: where something

must be removed so something else can thrive. Thus, this

house also covers initiation: getting rid of excess parts

of ourselves that we no longer need so we can get to the

heart and deeper meaning of life. The no-nonsense quality

of the eighth house makes it good for business ventures

since here we are stripping away the dross to reveal the

truth or essence of the subject. But what meaning does the

8th house hold for the child? Any planets in the 8th house

will give a Scorpio, hence deeply subjective, coloring to

the chart. The key phrase here is "We have": for the adult,

the 8th house relates to shared money, property, resources.

It all begins during childhood. How does your child

approach sharing her things with others, in carrying out

joint responsibilities. Also, how does the child deal with

pain, crises, even the death of significant others? This is

the house of sex, and moreover, the house of desire.

Planets in the 8th house and the sign on the cusp shed

light on the child's ability to attract things to herself

through desire, and to let go when necessary or right.

Sagittarius is associated with religion, philosophy and

travel. Your child may seek to "expand her horizons," or to

express her highest ideals and personal philosophy through

the affairs of the house on whose cusp Sagittarius is

found.

Your child has a very analytical bent, and her mind

excels at making practical decisions. Her ideas run deeper

than superficial issues which could mean an interest in

depth psychology and even occult and mystical subjects.

Research, science, and medicine may especially appeal to

him. Stock up on mystery novels, science fiction and tales

of old Atlantis; they're all 8th house classics!

Particularly if she feels misunderstood by others, your

child may tend to keep her thoughts to himself. Especially

if Mercury is in a water or earth sign, she could be

secretive to an extreme. Some children with this placement

feel more at home expressing their feelings through art or

music. A few of the professions favored by this placement

are psychiatry, real estate, beauty salon work, insurance

and taxes, accountants, banking and medical research.

If other factors in the chart agree, your child may be

a super business man! Keep your eyes open for clues; does

she sign up to be class treasurer? On the other hand, the

8th house relates not only to finances (with Jupiter,

finances in a BIG way) but to spiritual mysteries.

Searching, delving, researching, inventing, discovering,

seeing...Your child's life path involves cutting through

appearances and superficialities and laying bare the

reality of a situation. This could mean that the business

world is an open book for her -- easy to read. Or she may

find psychology fascinating. Jupiter here may indicate a

career in medicine, in emergency care. This placement also

favors any work related to real estate, taxes, banking and

insurance.

Ninth House: Faith, Ethics, Cultural Traditions, Higher Education

The 9th house covers higher education, long journeys

and religion (the longest journey of all). Here is what

remains of the purification that takes place in the 8th

house -- the seed, or essence, of an entire cycle of

experience. Religion comes from a Latin word that means to

bind back, and thus refers to all things that last or

endure, such as the truth. Essential ideas, philosophy, and

the courts of law belong here. In your child's chart, the

9th house reveals the influences shaping the's child's

notions of right and wrong, her search for higher meaning,

where she reaches out to know more, the (life-long)

evolution of her belief system. As a youth, she is apt to

be more concerned with her direct experience than with

abstract thoughts. From these, however, she will draw

conclusions shaping her beliefs. Priests, judges,

historians, college professors, philosophers and explorers

often have key planets here. The child with planets in the

9th house enjoys expanding her horizons through travel
