Astrological Houses: The Second House in Brief

While the First House is related to you and how you project yourself, the Second House is connected to everything valuable to you, those things that help you project yourself into the world. This means money and all tangible and physical. But it's also more than that. it's your sense of values and what you hold dear. It's what you want, what you need, and your beliefs about what you want and need.

Your beliefs about what you have, want, and need are important because they have a strong influence on how you feel and act in every situation you encounter. Changing these core beliefs can have a profound impact on your circumstances, physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.

We all create our own reality through our perceptions and beliefs. And these perceptions and beliefs help shape our physical reality. If you doubt this, reflect on the many ways in which your beliefs about what is valuable to you have had an influence on your behavior and the circumstances that have resulted from this behavior. With a little reflection, you'll see that it's all connected, and this is what the Second House represents in western astrology.

The signs that sits on the cups of your Second House, as well as any planets that occupy this house, can tell you a lot about your sense of values and your capacity for making money. If this connection seems a little odd, remember that your capacity for making money is a result of your sense of values. The planets and sign can also symbolize how you feel about possessions, both your own and just possessions in general.

Whether you have a lot of money or simply want to have a lot, you should look to the Second House for a fresh view on how you feel about possessions. You may find that what has been stopping you from truly accomplishing your financial goals doesn't really have anything to do with how much you have. Instead, it's how you feel about what you own, and owning in general, that control what you can and cannot accomplish in this life. Realizing that you may feel negatively about people who have more than you do might explain why you won't allow yourself to create a reality in which you are successful. You can change your physical life by changing your beliefs, and this is the message of the Second House.

The Second House is ruled by the planet Venus and the sign Taurus.
