The Bull plows a field that seems boundless to him. The dispositor of the 2nd house is its actual ruler. As always with strong placements, much depends on the level of working through this position. At a low level, the world can literally crush the person—so heavy and inert is its weight. Moreover, the value system is largely oriented exclusively toward material forms, which the person desires to surround themselves with in abundance; at a low level, this leads to greed and an inability to part with objects long after they spiritually belong in the trash bin. In any case, general ethics are slow-moving, and the person gives the impression of a tank moving along an azimuth. Proper development enables constructive, practical interaction with the environment, great patience, diligence, and the ability to perceive and love the external world as embodied in concrete forms; and, of course, a love for soft furniture and embroidered cushions at all levels of working through the house. Still, in non-specific ethics, the person orients themselves toward facts, concrete actions, and circumstances, which comes across as somewhat crude, since the feelings, emotions, and thoughts of others are poorly taken into account. Alongside personal views, one should also accept the opinion of the group, which is far more sensitive to emotions and can shake even the firmest convictions—something occasionally vital for the person.
