Episode 73. The 8th house is complicated. It rules joint finances, loans, inheritances, insurance, taxes, death, and sex. It’s all about merging whether you’re sharing resources or getting intimate.
This house is associated with the sign Scorpio, which is the eighth sign of the zodiac. Mars and Scorpio would be the ruling planets. It would be considered fixed and would belong to the water element. It's also one of the "succedent houses." When a planet sits in the natal 8th, it may have something to say about how you share your resources as well as how you get intimate with others. If a planet transits this house, it could affect your joint finances - or your sex life.
