Natural home of: Taurus
Natural ruler: Venus
Type: Succedent
Governs: Money, possessions, values, morals
The second house shows your possessions, your finances, the way you deal with money. With an earthy sign like Taurus or Capricorn, or practical Cancer on the cusp, you'll have good financial sense; with a flaky sign like Pisces or Aquarius, let somebody else handle your money. On a deeper level, the second house symbolizes your values and the things you hold dear on a metaphorical, as well as a material, level. Planets in this house have a stable, loyal Taurus quality, and their energy may be directed toward your need for material or emotional security.
