Astro Gradual, unlocking your Cosmic heartbeat

Sun transit House 8

Sun transit House 8 can affect you on many different levels. One thing you may notice is psychological compulsions surfacing. When they come, try to observe them. Don’t judge yourself for their content, rather try and get at where they come from. Which basically means: what aspects of your past they come from. Therapy or free writing can help guide you. Failure to get to the bottom of these compulsions will lead to further problems down the road. And attempts at repressing them only ever create neurosis. Another thing you may notice is an urge to tidy. Go with it and do it in so completely that when the urge passes, it’ll be easy to maintain the newly-created order. You may need to first create more space. Which could mean throwing out things you feel you may one day need. But too many possessions in your house make a calm flow state impossible, and out in the world they continue to take up space in your mind. Like a hoarder tripping over stacks of old magazines, you become clumsy in the world, weighed down by what you’re desperate to hold onto. But when you let go and give some of your stuff away as a gift to the world, your lightness and grace return, and you’ll forever more be wary of over-accumulation.

Sun transit House 8 is a time of uncovering hidden truths, self discovery and rebirth for you. Your confidence is needed at this time, because you are likely to face challenges which strip away superficial layers and reveals underlying truths and wounds in need of healing. Your energy, while still enthusiastic, may become more intense at this time. You may become obsessive and ruminate on how to accentuate your wealth. You may also assume ownership of someone else's property, money or assets. Likewise you may feel entitled to the resources or money of another person. This presumption may be a result of overestimating your role in someone's life, or may involve some level of egocentrisms or grandiosity.  Be mindful not to overstep boundaries and make assumptions about your right to other's assets. A lucky break could improve your wealth at this time as well. You may be granted a settlement, obtain an inheritance or receive repayment of a loan. A tax refund could also give your finances a boost.

House 8 is Pluto's house the house of transformation. Pluto is said to be an icy planet on the outside being so far away from the Sun, where it's very cold. However, recently they have found that Pluto has icy volcanoes. Perfect This is representative of our repressed or controlled emotions, that if suppressed too long can come bursting out like "ice shards" cutting to the core of all those around. Pluto has many deep energies attached to it but his proper goal is to toughen us up and to teach us about personal power used correctly,  and the protection, and freedom it allows. If these repressed or controlled feelings, needs or emotions are not willingly brought out for release, then they will likely bubble beneath which can cause illness over the long run. We need to be true to ourselves, even our daily frustrations and aggravations can build up over time. This can be especially difficult for those that have difficulty standing up for themselves, setting boundaries with others, and not using their personal power to protect themselves and end up getting taken advantage of. This is part of Pluto's atomic purge, what is deep inside must be released.  Pluto can not keep things suppressed for long, they will eventually burst out much like a volcano and any planet that transits this house will be forced to do so, in areas the planet represents.

This depends on many other factors. Change is needed in the deeper areas of your life and particularly areas of emotional fulfilment or support. It's best that you think things through completely rather than acting out compulsively or with anger, should you feel pushed but most certainly express yourself and don't let anyone push you around. Remember Pluto is about personal power and used correctly you can make some very positive changes in your life.
