Just a few things many leave out when talking about these:
This stellium is not just about power and control but the fear of lacking them. The 8th House rules all things we perceive as out of our control, there’s a reason those with this stellium seek as much power and influence as possible: They know what happens when one has no power. Many have experienced hardships such as going without money, suffering extreme illnesses, and much darker issues. They know the struggle of having no control.
There is often an irrational fear of the things that are beyond their control which leads to their common interest in the occult. They seek to understand the things that have no answers or explanation. The afterlife, witchcraft, astrology, etc. are all of interest to these people not simply because they are ruled by the House of the Occult but because they need to have the power knowledge gives over the things we cannot explain.
Money is very important to people with this stellium. There’s often a strange obsession with it and an extreme fear of going without it. Hiding money is a very common thing with these people. Many with 8th House stellia will distrust banks, even. But it’s not just money - it is specifically how others relate to money and even money that is not their own.
Again, this is all about control. They fear what will happen to their money, even fear what others may do with their own money.
They are constantly driven to reinvent themselves or grow. The 8th House rules transformation so it makes sense that these natives feel driven to constantly change. They are very exact, determined people who can be quite hard on themselves and others.
They often experience issues with sex. Typically, these issues are mental. For whatever reason the person with this stellium may find themselves too focused on sex or completely detached when they don’t want to be. Many times, however, I’ve seen this manifest in a physical way, either affecting sex specifically or the genitals in some way as that is the part of the body the 8th House rules. Issues with a woman’s pelvic floor which kept her from having penetrative sex, a man who had to have surgery due to an inexplicable urinary obstruction, endometriosis, etc. have arisen in these people’s lives.
Some will use this sexual energy to manipulate others, particularly if Venus and/or Mars are a part of their stellium. This is something that most grow out of.
Many have supernatural experiences. This ties back in with their constant search for control but also 8th House stelliums are considered to create some psychic abilities in the native. The ability to harness and manipulate energy is often present within them and many 8th House placements are said to create psychic abilities.
They may feel compelled to explore the macabre, taboo, and darker side of society. At their worst, they be outlandish, loners, and rejects of society. At their best they can be pioneers that introduce the world to new ways of thought. This can go hand in hand with their interest in the supernatural.
There is something about this stellium which allows the native to see the beauty in darkness.
There are certain lessons that each stellium brings with it, these are the 8th House’s:
Natives need to learn when to take control and when to let go, when to trust others with control and when they need to take it themselves.
They must learn to accept themselves and that they can succeed without constantly fighting to change.
Accepting their sexuality is a huge issue for them but it’s key for their health, both physical and mental.
People with 8th House stellia: Honore Daumier, the satirist with a sharp tongue; Charles Baudelaire, poet and innovator; Coco Chanel, timeless designer.
