8th house in Taurus
A. N. Ryzhov. The Boundaries of Houses in Signs
Death is quiet, calm, sweet. In the evening, he ate mushrooms, and in the morning, he was already cold.
Avesalom Podvodny. Houses in the Signs of the Zodiac
An earthquake. The dispositor of the 8th house is in detriment. Changes in life do not come easily to this person. They usually drag on for a long time, and he perceives them as hard work that must be done both internally, gradually adapting to new conditions (a new egregor), and externally, finding his place in the changed environment with difficulty and not immediately. Marriage, divorce, moving, getting a job, and being fired—even with the most harmonious aspects of Taurus, when everything happens naturally and at the right time, will not pass easily or quickly and will not go unnoticed in the emotional memory of the person. Tense aspects will amplify the difficulties and troubles of restructuring, making it seem hopelessly difficult and, in principle, unattainable. Marriage will be as unrealistic a prospect for him as digging a canal alone to connect the Black and Caspian Seas. In borderline states, this person will require very difficult and prolonged tension. With harmonious Taurus, the burdens are manageable, but with affliction, they often are not; overcoming one’s inertia and seeking indirect ways out of tense situations is necessary. Psychological crises are severe and prolonged; fixation on certain circumstances may occur, which become enormous and insurmountable obstacles, and until this point of view changes, overcoming the crisis may be impossible. With affliction in Taurus, this is a very difficult patient for a psychologist or psychiatrist; certain physical exercises and labor tied to karmic issues are indicated. He struggles to integrate into a group, but if and when it happens, he can defend its interests with the strength and consistency of a caterpillar tractor; in conflict, this tractor runs over him instead, so he must learn flexibility in behavior and thinking and balance personal ethics (2nd house Scorpio) with collective ethics rather than opposing them. This person senses the magic of things and objects well; he has an ability for massage, especially Eastern; when he perceives the astral plane, the latter is real to him and filled with entirely living beings.
Houses in the Signs. Alexander Kostovich
Psychological crises are usually severe and prolonged. With affliction, negative fixation on certain circumstances may occur, from which it is difficult to break free. Clear, stable solutions to problems related to risk are evident. The influence of negative situations is often strong, persistent, and sometimes protracted. Danger of being buried under earth, stones, or freezing. Sometimes (with confirmations), a karmic inheritance from another person. Abilities in energy massage, acupuncture, a good energetic connection with objects and the material world. Working through issues is linked to developing subtle feelings, behavioral flexibility, and the ability for positive transformation of one’s psyche. The death of such a person is usually peaceful.
Pavel Globa. Houses in the Signs
TAURUS — life changes are not given easily. Psychological crises are severe and prolonged. Strong material attachment. Possible financial catastrophes or enrichment: “From rags to riches, and vice versa.” Involvement in public activities. In relationships with a group, there is a lack of flexibility. Patience up to a certain point, then an outburst. Symbol of inheriting wealth. Peaceful death.
