Resources

The second house organizes everything you consider yours: material resources, money, valued possessions, and, more deeply, self-esteem and the sense of personal security. It asks what you need in order to feel stable. Its natural sign is Taurus and its natural planet is Venus, lending it an emphasis on concreteness, sensory awareness, and slow but steady construction. Here you can read your relationship with money, whether you accumulate or circulate it, and which kinds of possessions give you a sense of belonging. It also speaks to your natural talents, those inner resources you can turn into sustenance. It does not predict wealth or poverty: it describes the emotional and practical bond you have with what you own and with your own capacity to generate.
