Even if you are new to ‌ astrology, you must have heard of houses. The importance of houses in astrology cannot be overemphasised. The locations of the twelve houses in a kundali, linked to the particular sphere, are established by the individual’s time and place of birth. Every planet exists in a house. That placement not only talks about you but also about how you exist in the world around you. Each of these houses is associated with a specific sign. For example, the first house of self is related to ‌ Mars energy. Mars is associated with self, power, and ambition, so no wonder the first house of self deals with one’s self and ego.

Here, we will discuss one of the most significant houses in astrology: the Second House, or the House of Wealth as it is commonly known.

What Does Having Different Planets in the Second House Indicate?

We have all heard of a particular planet in a particular house or the Second House. Let us explain this mystery to you:

Sun in the Second House

The sun in the 2nd house of your birth chart connects your identity and sense of self with wealth and value. A strong Sun in the 2nd house shows self-respect and independence. However, at times, natives can be greedy as well.

Moon in the Second House

When the Moon is in the 2nd house of the Kundali, the native is attractive. It is extremely auspicious to have the Moon in the 2nd house; it makes natives rich, smart, and famous. The native has the support of his or her family. 

However, a moon that is negatively influenced by malefic planets makes natives influenced by illegal activities for quick money. The native may also be inconsistent or have addictive food habits.

Jupiter in the Second House

Jupiter, in the second house, is in a very auspicious position. It helps ‌natives achieve business success. Thanks to this position, the native is bestowed with happiness, wealth, and riches.

However, if Jupiter is afflicted, the natives will become selfish. And, there are obstacles on the path to success.

Venus in the Second House

Venus in the 2nd house shows wealth, success, and a comfortable life for the native. The native is respected in ‌society. Different businesses will yield good returns.

However, if Venus is afflicted in the second house, natives spend mindlessly. And lose the sense of morals and values.

Mars in the Second House

Mars is a strong and dominating planet. When Mars is placed in the 2nd house, the natives become confident and independent.  The native works hard and achieves success by legitimate means.

However, a malefic Mars makes the native egoistic and rude.

Mercury in the Second House

When Mercury is placed in the 2nd house, the native becomes kind and gentle. They are efficient at organising things. Their intellect will bring them good results.

However, a malefic Mercury in the 2nd house results in poor decision-making by the native.

Saturn in the Second House

When Saturn is in the 2nd house, it leads to an income increase thanks to the hustle and determination of the native. Natives will make good decisions and have financial stability. However, they will not be satisfied with their work. 

Also, when Saturn is placed with malefic planets in the 2nd house, the native turns lazy and gives in to procrastination.

Rahu in the Second House

Rahu is considered a notorious and malefic planet, but not here. ‌Rahu in the 2nd house brings good results. The native sees financial gains, and he or she can fulfil all the obligations of the family.

However, be careful, as when Rahu gets into association with malefic planets, the native can face financial ruin.

Ketu in the Second House

Ketu in the 2nd house, does not bring good results. The natives face financial problems, and they spend mindlessly as well. The natives have a lack of confidence and always compare themselves with others. They also doubt the values they were raised with.
