Tough Placements that Indicate a Hard life | 2

Disclaimer: Having these placements does not automatically make your life hard, these are common placement patterns dedicated to each SPECIFIC area of life. I only listed a few to avoid fear mongering but there are more in PART 1 and more posts in my MASTERLIST

Part 1 Sections:

Family Life & Emotions

Enemies

Part 2 Sections:

Financially

Identity/Sense of self

Financially:

Pluto/Lilith in the 2nd House: The planet of death, destruction, power struggles, and transformation in the 2nd house of money, self-worth, values, foundations, and generational wealth is honestly rough af. A lot of the time the native’s family will blackmail them with money and withhold resources as a form of control to manipulate the individual. Your favourite items were probably thrown away or restricted from use and people in your own family may have tried to steal from you. As a result, your confidence has probably been shattered and you’ve worked hard or are currently working towards a secure and stable income source. This placement often goes through multiple toxic jobs until they find the one they feel safest in without worrying about being fired unfairly. People in the workspace are often jealous of your assets but they don’t know how hard you worked to achieve them. Never touch a Pluto in the 2nd house personal items, they will lose it lmao it means everything to them. I also see parents being excessively frugal with this placement and the family may have gone through cycles of extreme poverty.

2nd/8th House Stellium: The 2nd house rules over what you materially and monetarily gain and the 8th house is what people take from you as it rules over debts and loans as well as shared resources. That’s why the 8th house is the house of death and loss, but also regeneration which can be translated into money here. These people can either be severely poor and in debt for most of their life or gain mass power that could even be from hidden organizations (more so with the 8th house). Major lessons need to be learned through any stellium in the 2nd/8th house and their money as it plays a big theme in their life so, these people will often go through severe stages of loss and gains in wealth.

Saturn in the 2nd House: Saturn…oh dear, the planet of restrictions, delays, and karmic life lessons will no doubt restrict someone’s income and financial opportunities. This is the placement I find working harder than the rest yet still reaping no benefits until they work extremely hard continuously for a long period of time and make sacrifices. They usually need to learn how to manage their money better and are provided with no opportunities to gain, they simply have to push through and work for it. However, they usually end up in a long-term job successfully and reap high-paying benefits if they push through it all successfully and learn how to manage money. If they don’t, they usually suffer from a career downfall and lose a lot of material gains that are valuable to them. They have to be careful with how they manage their wealth and can’t blow their money excessively. 

Chiron in the 10th House: The wounded healer is actually classified as a comet or minor planet (wikipedia lol) but is grouped in with many asteroids. Therefore, I have found significance with Chiron placements and patterns of financial troubles in the 10th house. You are able to boost other coworkers’ positions and help them receive recognition through your own work, but this also hurts your ego as you are usually behind the scenes doing most of the work yet receiving few to no benefits. I can definitely see this placement getting their work copied or stolen often as it heals others but wounds themselves. This placement is also prone to bullying in the workspace whether it’s your bullying or being bullied. Usually, you’re part of a power dynamic where you are the person left behind while the others get public fame and could even use it against you. I do see this placement potentially being the victim of white-collar crime as authorities could perhaps view you as a threat and want you out of a job. 

Neptune in the 8th House: A foggy world of debt you’ve lost track of. Loans and investments are very risky here, and the native could be cheated out of an inheritance or income without their knowledge. A lot of the time they struggle with money and lose it more than it comes in due to Neptune’s foggy nature that just absorbs and absorbs while never putting out anything into reality. Money is not Neptunes bestie especially when placed in the house of debt, death, shared resources, and the occult. They also are prone to spiritual attacks and evil spirits clinging to them. Ya’ll need hella protection fr.

Uranus in the 2nd House: Your personal and material foundations will probably go through a drastic a disastrous change. Uranus is like the tower card in astrology to me because your foundation crumbles unexpectedly to the point where you’re left with nothing and have to build a new path because your foundation was no longer serving you. That’s exactly how I view this placement. Uranus will completely turn your values and possessions upside down but it’s so you can let go and make progressive changes in your life. It’s just…a really awful and extreme process.

Venus square Saturn: What you want vs what you need cannot be achieved at the same time here and you are forced to limit what you want in life and push it away so you can attain what you NEED in life. Your sense of love, relationships, and confidence in appearance is shattered at first and insecurities make you feel like being in love or achieving what you want in life is impossible. But, in the end after achieving what you first need, you’re able to get what you want. When it comes to money the same concept applies and you’re very limited in material gain. It’s definitely a frustrating process as you feel like you’re late to everything in life such as success and relationship experience.

Ruler of the 11th house in the 8th house: The 11th house rules over friendship, communities, and technology. But, also our wishes and benefits/rewards after our hard work. Therefore, when placed in the house of debt, hidden power struggles, and occult could translate into your benefits stolen from you by your friends or a hidden organization of people. This is a very specific observation but I found it interesting, let me know if anyone has this and what it’s like.

Your Identity:

Pisces moon: Imma be so honest right now, these people although the sweetest humans on earth also are trained to live their life sacrificing for others and constantly saving and helping people…to the point of their detriment like it’s insane. They also are very impressionable through Neptune’s influence of easily absorbing others’ opinions and influence which fogs up their own sense of identity and self-awareness. If you told a Pisces moon an observation about themselves they always believe it or spend time thinking about it because they start to question themselves and the reality of situations. Words really stick to them and they take a lot to heart. They, also unconsciously pick up other people’s personalities, styles, and mannerisms due to Neptune’s projective nature. it takes a while for them to build their own solid identity tbh.

Scorpio rising/Pluto in 1st: They receive a lot of criticism and backlash for doing what everyone else does. The only difference is people seek to EXPOSE Scorpio risings for normal and seemingly harmless things. Scorpio risings do tend to be a usual target to the public and the same goes for Pluto because they are both associated with power struggles between the individual and the public perception of them. This is also why they tend to stay low profile and quiet because pluto/scorpio’s influence hides them a bit amongst public interaction. But once they say something or make a move it’s like..BOOM suddenly they’ve captured everyone’s attention due to that power and exposure theme present. There’s also this magnetism to them that makes people feel very polar in terms of love or hate, as these individuals just can’t be read while simultaneously pulling people in (me, I am the one pulled in).  

Chiron in the 1st: This is going to be sad, I believe Chiron in the angular houses (mainly 1, 7 & 10) is an indicator of being bullied in your life. I’ve had many friends with this placement and they have all been bullied. They never feel satisfied with themselves and go through periods of self-destruction. It’s actually very similar to sun-pluto that way. Their identity feels like it’s ruled by others’ opinions and they become scared to express themselves out of fear of severe judgment so they often tone down their personality a bit and put on a mask. I’ve also seen a similar theme with Chiron in the 3rd house but to a lesser degree and more focus on speaking and standing up for themselves.

Saturn in the 5th House: This completely restricts your ability to feel happiness from creative pursuits, you almost feel guilty participating in any creative hobby or project that puts you into the spotlight. Saturn limits your sense of personal happiness and ability to casually be intimate or connect with other people. The heart chakra is very plugged up here and it leaves depressing energy tbh. It’s hard for you to play and have fun without feeling self-conscious that someone will judge you for it. But, it’s also hard for you to feel motivated or courageous enough to go after your true passions and hobbies. I had this transit last year..and honestly worst Saturn transit I’ve experienced thus far. it just dims your sparkle so much and hurts bad.

Stellium in the 7th/12th House: For the 7th house stellium, a lot of your focus in life will be placed on helping others and worrying about their judgements. You’ve spent so much time trying to please people and get along with people to the point where you have forgotten about your own needs because you prioritize others’ perceptions of you over your own identity. In the 12th house, your identity stays hidden most of the time, you’re comparing yourself to others wondering how you can stand out or become more ambitious in life but you also feel at peace alone away from the chaos. however, I think too much time spent in your head alone actually can delude you a bit and not fully understand who you are.

Uranus opposite Ascendant: They feel like they are never good enough or accepted as themselves so they always want to change identities or aesthetics to something they know people hype up or what makes them feel appreciated. they aren’t afraid to show their weird and fun side, but they are criticized and looked down upon for it especially.

Moon in the 7th House: Idk I always see these people trying to change others and spending time around toxic people to the point where they are confused about their own goals in life because they’re also very sacrificing. they do need close relationships to function and this can turn into codependency even in friendships. It gets to a point where even if it’s toxic they are likely to stay because they feel like themselves and complete when they are with someone. Like fr I ALWAYS see them with the shittiest people helpp

Fire moons: The element of ego and destruction placed in the moon’s turbulent and emotional nature? yikes. They are kinda explosive and don’t know what to make of themselves. A lot of their life is consumed by trying to take action and start movements in the outside world but what happens in their internal world? exactly they don’t know lol. For a lot of their life, they try to self-reflect and understand themselves to better control their fiery and explosive emotions and express themselves better. The moon typically doesn’t perform well in the fire element as the nature of these two are opposite and combative. They act impulsively and sometimes selfishly or end up sacrificing too much on the flip side. There is no balance with fire moons and this makes it hard for them to express their emotions properly or even understand their own identity as most of it stems from the outside world and lacks internally. They are very self-conscious as a result of a focus on external needs (cough validation from others cough).

South Node in the 7th & 12th House: Your goal in life is literally to focus on your Identity, goals, and perception of the world. But guess what your natural skills are? You’re a great diplomatic negotiator who knows what people want to hear. So, you end up always catering to what you think someone wants instead of what you actually want. You’ve gotten so used to this pattern that it becomes an unbreakable and instinctual habit out of fear of conflict and standing up for yourself. Not everyone is right plz stop thinking others opinions matter over yours boo

Neptune in the 1st House: I think this placement, in particular, might be the most common among those who struggle with their identity. It’s because Neptune the planet of the unknown realm, mysticism, illusions, dreams, confusion, and the sea is in your house of subjective identity, how you view the world, and your physical characteristics. Now ya’ll are beautiful, drop-dead gorgeous okay? but omylord do you receive so much shit from the public. People falsely accuse you for everything even if you’re innocent and have no part in anything. They also love to spread rumours and makeup illusions of you in other people’s minds. You’re talked about a lot in circles, just like an enigma. And people assume random things about you and project them onto your identity.  The worst part is, that you and everyone else believe everything others say. It’s like your identity is controversial itself??? It’s interesting that people can’t properly see below the surface level and into the deep sea that is your real personality. So, they end up making myths about you.

Neptune in the 3rd House: I feel like no one actually tries to listen to you as much as you listen to them. Miscommunications seem to be a common problem for you, and as a result, it’s just hard for you to express yourself and your opinions. I usually see this placement as shy because they’re tired of always being misunderstood. The cool part about this is that they can figure out very complex abstract problems because they have a more creatively intelligent mindset than other 3rd house placements. However, you probably did go through bullying during early elementary school or were made fun of for your intelligence because no one tried to understand you. I think ya’ll are so damn smart tbh.

1st House ruler in the 12th House: When the chart ruler is in the 12th house your identity is hidden from the public completely. Like, you find people talking over you all the time ugh. You also never get the recognition you deserve and people tend to ignore your presence. The quiet kid in the back of the class who randomly disappeared from school one day only for you to find him becoming a rich foreign investor probably has this placement LMAOO. I’m not even kidding though because the 12th house has to do with disappearances and foreign land overseas. So just saying..you could make MONEY. However when it has to do with your identity you just never felt heard or seen. You feel constantly overlooked and unappreciated. You’ve probably gotten ghosted a lot too (12th house rules over spirits). But I love you okay and that won’t change, I hope you felt seen here.

Tough Placements that Indicate a Hard Life | 1

Disclaimer: having these placements does not automatically make your life hard, these are common placement patterns dedicated to each SPECIFIC area of life. The Financial and Identity sections are now available in PART 2!

MASTERLIST

These are split into two sections! In part two there will be more sections :) Enjoy.

1. Home life and Emotions.

2. Enemies.

Family Life & Emotionality:

Sun in 8th House: Usually these people have a strained relationship with their dad or the father figure in the family. Often times the dad is powerful and has gained mounts of success and respect, however, the dad usually has moments where he loses himself, can’t remain reliable, is mean towards the family, and is an indicator of a dad who wastes the families income yet they are seen as a hero or alpha by other males due to the sun’s glorious or even famous disposition. However, the 8th house hides the dad’s problems through a heroic image and gives the child trust issues because their dad is nothing like people claim to know. It’s also an indicator of health problems and the death of the father early on in the child’s life.

Moon in the 6th House: This one I ignored before until I dug deeper. The effects of the moon here can grant a turbulent daily life full of emotional ups and downs, yet they are trained to hide it just as well as 8th house moons because their mother figures were insanely critical of them and didn’t accept any sign of emotions or expression. I feel bad for those who are neurodivergent and have this placement because the maternal figure probably expected perfection and conformity in how the child acts and thinks. Or else, I’ve seen these moms act like they don’t even know their kids unless they achieved an outstanding goal. Basically, a lot of internalized pain with this placement, and often you encounter emotionally unstable people in public or have faced a painful animal death in your family. Watch out for health problems and depression as Mercury rules over Virgo/6th house, and the moon combined with mercurial energy tends to suffer a lot with their mental health. 

Moon in Scorpio: A classic hard family life placement. I’ve never met a Scorpio moon who didn’t suffer from family problems, specifically the mother figure. Their mother tried to gaslight, compete, or even withhold these moon signs from their friends or hobbies simply because the mother never viewed these things of worth or would become suspicious of new people. Blackmail is common, and so are some financial issues within the family. You’re probably the detective in your family and have a natural talent to locate hidden items. These people just want to feel accepted by their mom or family no matter how much they rebel or fight it. They crave true family love and stability.

Moon opposite/conjunct Neptune: I’ve met some people and I hate to say this…but delusional rings a bell. They want to believe they are loved by others and that people have the best intentions for them because that answer was often unclear in their home life. So as a result of an incredible amount of manipulation from the family, this person really does think toxic love could be healthy, or that whatever someone labels them as they internalize it and see themselves as a reflection of what others want. There could’ve been an issue of substance abuse within the family, or just indulgence in anything. Toxic religious views or purity culture may have been forced onto you as Neptune is associated with the higher realm and religion. They do love to connect with others but usually miss the red flags. Don’t get caught up in gossip or labels because you have a tendency to agree with most irrational reasonings as moon - neptune people can empathize with all sides of a situation. Please take time to accept yourself first before seeking it out in groups.

Moon conjunct/square Pluto: Power struggles in the family are very common with this aspect, I’ve also met some people who are very explosive. I’d say they have such intense emotions overwhelming them to the point where they actually can’t even hide them. They also similar to a Scorpio moon spend a great deal of their time trying to be accepted by the mom or family but end up feeling resentment and jealousy. The difference is I repeatedly see the same pattern with this aspect and not even having a physical or emotional home. It’s destroyed literally or figuratively, they crave an actual home the most and are prone to always moving and never having a stable home life. They are paranoid about any intruder or loss in the home, and their birth was very intense that may have almost resulted in the mother dying too. To end this, I know most people think this aspect hides their emotions but I’ve seen the opposite with the conjunction and square as if they just explode and go ice cold periodically. 

Pluto in the 2nd/4th House: Pluto in the 2nd accounts for broken confidence and never feeling good enough, a fear of failure and loss overcomes them and usually they were withheld physical possessions they found important for their mental health as a child like a teddy bear to sleep. People try to target their valuables and money, often being the center of scandals because they want to ruin this individual’s worth on every level. Jealousy runs high as it’s associated with venus and gifted resources. Pluto in 4th could honestly manifest as literal homelessness or an extremely powerful yet deceitful family. It reminds me of the royal family where they have this image of being perfect and elegant but on the inside, there’s tremendous amounts of backstabbing, lies, and very strict training or parenting. Usually, it’s always held together or torn apart by money and public affairs too interestingly.

Saturn in the 4th House: Strict parents, a very pushy family who always tried to control what you do and never let you have much freedom to figure out what YOU really want to do with your life. Parents are overprotective and hover over the child nonstop. You’re sheltered but also harshly taught and expected to perform without fail. You really do crave that emotional freedom to just laugh, be stupid, and have fun in your childhood. But, that was usually restricted as Saturn is cold and restrictive in nature. There could’ve been the death of the dad within the family or a very karmic lesson centered around the dad they must learn for the family’s benefit. 

Lilith in 4th House: It’s giving evil stepmom vibes I’m sorry. The mother could’ve sought to make your family hate you and spread lies, or even separate you from the family entirely. There’s a big theme of jealousy, resentment, and rumours with this. Expect to be the center of family gossip and feel betrayed by mother figures. Good luck bbys…

Lilith in the 8th House: Similar to the 4th house alternatively, but also entirely different. Basically, Lilith here brings some sort of dark feminine trauma into your life. I’ve known people whose moms always humiliated them, were too open or restrictive about intimacy and sex, or even shamed the child for their family members’ death. it’s just so much dark energy present in the individual’s life that made them want to hide and feel ashamed of themselves when everything is out of their control and they’re usually innocent. It’s powerful but way too much to handle for the individual.

Enemies:

Pluto in the 6th House: This is extremely difficult as your health might fail you sometimes. You are prone to getting sick more than the rest and your daily life is filled with unfortunate events or random enemies popping up when you’re just minding your business sheesh. Sometimes you don’t trust healthcare or have negative experiences with hospitals because they could’ve messed up before. Sticking to a daily routine is hard because you are forced to constantly restructure yourself and your life as nothing can really manage or predict the things you go through. I have Pluto transiting my 6th house right now and lemme tell you it’s a bitch. Lowkey you witness random shady events that occur in public too, I call this the undercover cop placement.

Pluto in the 10th House: It holds a lot of power but you always face people trying to tear you down out of spite because of your success. This is a very influential placement that exposes you to the public and your reputation is polarizing due to rumours spread and power dynamics in your relationship with your public image and career. Usually, these rumours are wrong too, and people purposely target you because they see your influence and innovative ways as a threat. You want to hide from the public but you just can’t. You have a wide audience of people watching you and sometimes it feels like you never get a break. At the end of the day, no matter how much you’re torn down I always see this placement make it big with whatever they choose to do.

Uranus in the 8th House: Spiritual hauntings or predictive dreams are common here. You could have spirits in your home that are loud and like to cause a ruckus just to scare you. There’s also a sensitivity to energies and people can sense this. People seek to expose your secrets online or you randomly find yourself going viral for something horribly embarrassing lol. Either way, this placement gets their secrets, identity, and income leaked online at some point due to enemies that randomly dislike you out of the blue. Honestly, you may not feel safe talking to people about anything because you always feel judged and critiqued for your own inquisitive thoughts or creative ideas. People don’t want to see you sparkle and stand out so they try to make you seem weird.  

Neptune in the 10th House: People don’t really know who you are, they project their insecurities onto you and make it seem like you’re an awful or godsent person. Often time and time again your words are taken heavily out of context and twisted into phrases that don’t reflect who you are. It can feel impossible to connect with people or simply just speak up about anything due to this twisted nature that is present in your workspace dynamic. I see superiors trying to take advantage of your work and claiming it as their own so be careful and self-preserve your creations a bit. You don’t have to constantly help people to the point of your downfall.

Saturn in the 1st House: Lessons are taught in self-expression and structuring your identity. Through these lessons, people can treat you harsher than usual and look down on you. There’s often either an intimidated or condescending tone in people’s voices when they interact with you. Usually, these people are quite lonely for some time as others don’t readily accept them and view them as mean when they’re very nice people. Because the 1st house deals with how we perceive the world, you experience it through a lonely and hurt lens. It’s important to know once you prove your enemies wrong you cannot look down on others as Saturn brings karma here.

8th House ruler in the 6th House: the amount of crazy shit that goes on is undeniable. It’s a bit like Pluto in the 6th house except all the aspects of your 8th house are placed into your daily life. You could very well encounter dangerous people, face weird circumstances, or even work in the occult somehow. Look at the sign in your 8th house and that often encompasses your experiences.

Chiron/Pluto in the 11th House: friends and the internet become your wounded healer. You probably felt like the third wheel in a lot of friendships and most of them talked behind your back. I can definitely see this placement wanting to isolate themselves but hurting from the loneliness. Your ideas were never taken seriously no matter the work and originality you put in but once someone else does it, suddenly it’s accepted and normalized.

Lilith in the 7th House: Whenever you crush on someone or commit to a romantic relationship there’s ALWAYS a third party that is jealous of you and wants to destroy your relationship. Or, the person you’re involved with hides secrets from you and tears down your confidence. Usually, feminine individuals are your enemies as Lilith is in a venus-ruled house. Rumours are frequent here too as this is the house of rumours and open enemies. Lilith rules over what you are and not what you are seen as unless it is aspecting the ascendant, so this combination creates a persona of underlying mischief or intentions other people see in you as a threat even if you’re just a baddie going through their day.
