What the 8th house is about

The 8th house governs how you merge, trust and transform. Traditionally associated with intimacy, shared resources, transformation, death & rebirth, trust, power, the taboo, it's the part of the chart that colours intimacy & transformation. Wherever a planet or sign falls in your 8th house, that energy tends to express itself through this area of life.
