THE LEGEND OF 8TH HOUSE

THE LEGEND OF 8TH HOUSE

First and foremost, 8th house is all about death AND REBIRTH. I am writing this from my limited understanding and hope it helps someone who's dealing with the similar issues as me.

1. What does 8th house mean?

Mysterious, hidden knowledge of the universe, shock factor, psychological destruction and rebirth, change of identity, sudden events, it is like walking in the dark.

2. What is identity change?

Either change of profession (lawyer turned yogi) / life changing surgery (cancer, cosmetic surgery, deadly accident - these are real life examples) / psychological rebirth (change of personality - I personally went from 3 year old to 63 year old after transformation; I became very mature and quiet) / loss of everything you have built (wealth, health, relationship) and then you are forced to begin afresh.

3. Is 8th house scary?

Very scary. But one thing is promised. PROMISED. it is rebirth. Whatever goes around comes around. 8th house kills any part of you AND forces you to be reborn. Once you understand the significance of rebirth you will stop resisting.

4. What is the significance of all this? Why can't I live a normal life? I dont want to "die and reborn".

Spiritual progress. It is the shortcut to spiritual progress. 8th house will reward you like nothing else. We often live in illusion that life is all about enjoyment and material pleasures. But we forget that we have been living since immemoria time and will go on to live for trillions and trillions of years. We have incomprehensible amount of karma. Human life is very special. If you're born as a dog in your next life, you can't read this post or do spiritual practices.

5. Are animals "spiritual" too?

Perhaps they are. Have you seen your pet dog sitting and staring into air or being dutiful or sleeping soundly. Animals have lower sensory intelligence than humans but they are not inanimate objects. My theory is that animals also earn spiritul growth and progress.

6. What is the significance of "spiritual progress"? Why do I have to do it? Why cant I simply enjoy human life?

Life gets hard. Everyone gets their turn. You might become a criminal/cancer patient/very poor/physically disabled/mentally disabled in your next life. You never know. So it is advisable to burn your bad karma and earn good karma when you have the time instead of simply wasting it on mindless entertainment and sensory pleasures. This is so that when the tragedy strikes, you will have help and resources to manage your problems. Otherwise it gets really challenging. Dont underestimate how much life can hit you. Life can eat you alive like a tiger if it wants so.

SCORPIO ASCENDANT

I always wanted to be "well liked" by everyone - in the sense of being an innocent, sweet summer child whom everyone adores and babies.

But instead I provoke extreme reactions in people. Most people misunderstand me as rude and malicious. Perhaps it is my Scorpio ascendant.

Girls get "jealous" of me. I am average looking though. Many a times I have seen girls literally being jealous of me in school and acting against me.

I am not "liked by everyone" but I am more like a league of my own. I am solitary and independent. I dont expect anything from anyone.

Even I am surprised if someone thinks "nice" things about me. I feel like I burn all brides with my ego. My ego and attitude burn all bridges.

I crave deep SINGLEMINDED devotion from people close to me. I want to worship and be worshipped by those who matter to me.

I am possessive and controlling. I expect too much and give too much of myself.

I guess if I was a Libra/Taurus/Pisces/Sagittarius ascendant, I would not get such extreme reactions from people. Perhaps people would simply "like" me.

But being a scorpio ascendant, I have to face extreme subconscious reactions from people. It is like I provoke something in them that they didnt even know existed. I trigger their subconscious mind just with my presence. Most people find me "intimidating". They are scared of me. They think I am too private and secretive. They think i am too mysterious. They think that i am always hiding something and they feel threatened. But behind the mask, just crave deep devotion and intense connection with someone.

I guess people dont just "like" me because I give off sexual vibes. I am too sexual for a "nice girl". I emit sexual aura, sexual energy even if I dont want to.

I don't understand the appeal of songs and music. Perhaps it is my 8th house moon. My thoughts are obsessive repetitive addictive. Songs are like poison to me.

Firstly songs are made to be heard on repeat

Secondly my mind is obsessive addictive tendency

Thirdly combine the two and you get a giant mess

I hate songs. They make me go crazy

Now, songs are the product of many people's work. Many people are involved in the making of songs. Songs are profession. They may seem "enjoyable" to you but actually they are professions. People making songs are earning money from them. Why should I spend my time listening to something that is obsessive addictive AND makes money for somebody else?

Now, mental space. I have limited mental space. I have enough clutter to occupy my mind. Why should I keep songs and music in my mental space? It is just a noise that distracts me from my real life. It is like eating fast food for no reason at all. You can call fast food tasty, enjoyable, but it is just a garbage in my stomach. In the same way, songs are a garbage in my mental space. I will rather use that mental space to think about something that matters to me.

Next, I dance. I dance to seduce. This is the only reason why I listen to songs. I only listen to songs to dance and seduce like mating call. I am like a peafowl who dances to seduce her mate. This is when I listen to songs.

Lastly, songs are illusion. They are the illusions of rahu. Rahu creates the illusion of mind. Rahu creates ignorance and illusion. Rahu is maya.

Sun in 7th HOUSE and PERSONALITY

1. Sun in 7th house people dont feel good on their own. They NEED to be in a relationship - probably romantic. They are a dedicated partner and take pride in their relationship. Relationship gives them purpose and meaning in life. They are almost always in a relationship. When in relationship, their partner reflects their feelings back to them and this makes their existence feel alive. They feel seen and valued in their relationship. They have a deep desire to bond and commit to someone. A relationship gives them purpose and strength. They dont have an inner sense of self. They feel like they are empty body and their partner fills them up with light and life.

☀️

2. They like to be around other people but unlike sun in the 11th house, they prefer one on one relationship. They are dependent on their close relationships for identity. Since 7th house is the house of marriage, they identify with their married partner. They hide behind their partner's personality because they dont have their own personality. They can be pleasers and try very hard to impress their partner.

☀️

3. They must learn to overcome their irrational fear of "rejection/abandonment". They must overcome their need to "be liked by everyone in the world". They must overcome their need to be "dependent on their partner". They might use journal, journal prompt, soul searching, hobbies, work, family, social causes, pets and books to create a sense of self. They must learn to be self confident and REMIND themselves "who" they are because they are sure to forget it.

☀️

4. Even then they will feel "invisible". They feel like they are invisible empty and dont know who they are. But self awareness is the key. It is your 7th house sun which is setting behind the horizons and hiding your own identity from you.

SCORPIO/8TH HOUSE

Obsession = insecurity.

Obsession stems from insecurity.

Identify that insecurity and overcome it by learning a coping skill or seeing what triggers you in the other person you're obsessed with.
