Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into astrology lately, and the 8th house has always been a bit… mysterious, you know? Then I stumbled upon Aquarius in the 8th house and things got really interesting. So, I decided to track how this placement actually plays out in my life. Here’s what I did:
Getting Started
First, I pulled up my birth chart. I’ve used a few different websites before, but this time I just went with a simple, free one. I entered my birth date, time, and location. Boom – there it was, my chart, staring back at me.
Finding Aquarius
Then, I located the 8th house cusp. It’s like a pie chart, right? So I found the slice labeled “8” and checked which sign it landed in. Yep, Aquarius. Just like I thought.
Daily Tracking
This is where the real work began. I decided to keep a journal specifically for 8th house themes. I’m talking about things like shared resources, intimacy, transformation, maybe even a little bit of the “taboo” stuff. I grabbed a notebook and started jotting down anything that felt relevant.
- Day 1: My partner and I had a surprisingly open conversation about our finances. We usually avoid it, but today we just… talked. It felt good, a little scary, but good.
- Day 3: I noticed I was feeling extra rebellious about some outdated rules at work. Classic Aquarius, right? I even voiced my concerns to my boss – which is not like me.
- Day 7: A friend opened up to me about a really personal struggle. It was intense, and I felt this weird mix of wanting to help and also needing some space to process it all.
- Day 10: Okay, this is a weird one. I had this super vivid dream about… well, let’s just say it involved a lot of letting go of old baggage. Very 8th house-y, if you ask me.
- Day12:I finally finished paying my loan, I feel a sense of accomplishment, is this a good or a bad thing?
Reflecting and Connecting
After a couple of weeks, I looked back at my notes. I started to see patterns. The Aquarian influence in my 8th house seemed to be pushing me towards more honesty and openness in those deep, personal areas of life. It also felt like I was being challenged to break free from old ways of thinking about intimacy and shared resources.
It’s still a work in progress, of course. But this little experiment definitely helped me understand this placement a bit better. It’s not just some abstract concept anymore – it’s something I’m actively experiencing and learning from.
