An Astrology Secret: When the 8th House is Benefic
In reality, the 8th house is one of the most powerful houses for strategy, intelligence, and hidden talent in a horoscope.
This house does not work openly—it works silently. And that is exactly why it has been misunderstood for centuries. Let us understand how by remaining tuned to the video until the end.
People are often afraid of the 8th house of their horoscope. However, it is not the fault of the people because they are taught as such by a section of astrologers. A section of conservative astrologers, who believe in dogmatic astrology, often instill fear psychosis, and phobias in the minds of the people that the 8th house is the most malefic Vipreet Trik House when the fact is something totally different.
Every house of a horoscope has different traits and significations, both positive and negative, and the same holds for the 8th house. The 8th house is one of the Moksha Trikones and is related to spirituality. Then, how can the 8th house be fully malefic? We are living in Vipreet Kali Yuga, and the 8th house is a Vipreet House, which may give stunning progress in life.
The 8th house is the house of our longevity, hidden talents, research, analysis, inheritance, unearned money, overseas, deep strategy, and policy making, etc. The 8th house can make you a shrewd strategist and politician.
The 8th house is a hidden house, and when beneficially poised, it delivers positive results to a native relating to the significations governed by it.
The 8th house is benefic when:
èThe 8th house is occupied by the 8th lord.
èBy a natural benefic planet.
èThe 8th lord is strong and is under benefic influence or is in the Raj Yoga/Dhan Yoga.
èThe 8th lord or the 8th house is in interaction with the 4th house of the 4th lord, since the 4th house is the 9th house of luck from the 8th house.
èThe 8th lord or the 8th house is in interaction with the 6th lord or the 6th house, since the 6th house is the 11th house of gain from the 8th house.
èThe 8th house or the 8th lord is in interaction with the natal 9th house of luck or the 11th house of gain or their lords.
With this background knowledge, let us learn how to apply the rule to the horoscope.
Horoscope of Former President, Shri Pranab Mukherjee, who was associated with the Congress Party for a long time and remained on the centre stage of political power for his reported outstanding calibre as a political strategist.
In the horoscope of Pranab Mukherjee with Cancer Ascendant, the 8th house of Aquarius is occupied by the 8th lord Saturn, making the 8th house strong and auspicious. Venus, who is the 4th lord and the 9th lord of luck from the 8th house of strategy occupying the 8th house along with Saturn, the 8th lord. Mercury, who is the 12th lord, is in the 8th house with the 8th lord Saturn, forming Vipreet Raj Yoga.
Jupiter, who is the 6th lord, is the 11th lord of gain from the 8th house of strategy, is in Libra and has been aspecting the 8th house, the 8th lord (Saturn), and the 12th lord (Mercury), making the 8th house of strategy super gainful.
Incidentally, Venus, who is occupying the 8th house, is the natal 11th lord of GAIN and Jupiter, who has been aspecting the 8th house & the 8th lord, is the Natal 9th lord of LUCK, transferring LUCK and GAIN factors with the 8th house of strategy and planning.
Moreover, the 8th house is occupied by the 8th lord (Saturn), the 12th lord (Mercury), and aspected by the 6th lord (Jupiter), making the 8th house of STRATEGY SUPER STRONG, SUPER AUSPICIOUS, and a STRONG VIPREET RAJ YOGA HOUSE.
Shri Pranab Mukherjee was the SUPER STRATEGIST of the Congress Party, and so long as he was in the Congress Party, from the time of Smt. Indira Gandhi as the party strategist, the Congress Party hardly seen the face of defeat. It was only due to a SUPER STRONG AND SUPER AUSPICIOUS 8th house in the horoscope of Shri Pranab Mukherjee, charged with the luck and gain factors (the 9th house of luck and the 11th house of gain both from the Lagna and the 8th house).
The above rule is equally proven in the analysis of the luck and gain of inheritance, unearned income in the shape of interest income and rental income, besides luck and gain in the long-term investment in the stock market, etc., as these are all income without any effort.
Now, please ponder, is it wise to mislead people into believing that the 8th house is very unlucky?
The conventional and dogmatic astrology has become redundant in the Vipreet Kali Yuga, with Vipreet houses started playing dominant role.
