The Second House

The second house signifies family, speech, vision and financial prosperity. In judging the events regarding the second house cognizance must be taken of all the important factors viz.,

(a) The House, (b) Its Lord, (c) Its Occupants and (d) The Karaka or Indicator.

The several yogas—good and bad—formed by the second lord or in the second house will produce their own effects. These considerations hold good in the Navamsa also. In short the second house largely but not exclusively indicates wealth.

Results of Lord of Second House in Different Houses

1. In the First House —The native becomes no doubt wealthy but he hates his own family, lacks polite manners, becomes passionate, subservient and time-serving. When the lord of the 2nd is in Lagna, one will earn money by his own effort, intelligence and learning or he will get inherited wealth if the 9th lord or the Sun has anything to do with this combination.

2. In the Second House.—Becomes proud. The native may marry twice or thrice depending upon the strength of the seventh house. He may become childless. The position of the 2nd lord in a constellation which does not happen to be the 3rd, 5th and 7th from Janma Nakshatra is highly desirable, especially if he is otherwise fortified, i.e., joined with or aspected by benefics.

The exaltation of the 2nd lord of his disposition in Lagna, the 4th, 5th, 7th, 9th or 10th, will fortify him to the extent of making him a yogakaraka.

The native will be enabled to earn considerable fortune through business or other occupations consistent with the nature of the 2nd lord and 2nd house. Depending upon the nature of the aspects cast on the 2nd lord by malefic planets, the native will sustain losses.

An affliction to the 2nd lord may also express itself in the shape of the subject not getting nutritious and delicious food, or his family and children suffering from constant diseases, or want of cordial relations between the native and his life-partner.

3. In the Third House.—Brave, intelligent, good-natured but depraved character. Atheistic tendencies will be rampant and he becomes addicted to luxuries. Later in life he turns out to be a miser.

When the 2nd lord in the 3rd is well fortified, he will be benefited by his sisters. He will benefit by learning fine arts, viz., music and dancing. He will also indulge in propitiating Kshudra Devatas or evil spirits.

4. In the Fourth House.—The above results will apply in addition to the following. He will spend money for his own happiness. He will be highly frugal in dealing with money.

When the 2nd lord in the 4th is well fortified, one will earn well as an automobile dealer or agent or an agriculturist or landlord or commission agent. He will also be benefited by his maternal relations. There will be losses on this account if the 4th lord is afflicted.

5. In the Fifth House.—Hating family, sensual, not spending money even on children, he lacks manners and etiquette. When the 2nd lord in the 5th is well fortified there will be unexpected acquisition of wealth through lotteries, crosswords, or the favour of rulers.

6. In the Sixth House.—Income and expenditure from enemies. He will suffer from defects or diseases in the anus and thighs. Amassing of wealth by black-marketing, deceit, dissimulation and by creating misunderstandings and troubles between friends and relatives and through questionable and suspicious dealings can be anticipated if the second lord joins the 6th and is well fortified.

If afflicted, he will be involved in these troubles and sentenced for such crimes as breach of trust, forgeries and perjuries.

7. In the Seventh House.—Likely to become a healer. Laxity of morals will mark both husband and wife. He will waste much money on the gratification of the senses. When the second lord who joins the 7th with the 7th lord is strong there will be influx of wealth through foreign sources.

The native will undertake journeys to foreign countries and do business. When the Rasi, Navamsa or the constellation held by the 2nd lord happens to be a feminine one, then he will benefit by contact with women.

8. In the Eighth House. — Will have very little or no happiness from wife or husband. Misunderstandings with elder brothers. Gets landed properties. When the 2nd lord is strong, there will be influx as well as loss of wealth. Actual observation reveals that under such a combination, there will hardly be any earnings, but inherited or accumulated wealth will disappear.

9. In the Ninth House.—Skillful, ill-health in young age but healthy afterwards, will possess lot of wealth and become happy. When the 2nd lord is well fortified and the 9th lord is in Lagna, the native will have good inheritance. There will also be benefits through different sources according to the nature of the sign and nakshatra held by the 2nd lord.

10. In the Tenth House.—Respect from elders and superiors, learned, wealthy and he earns by his own exertions. The native will take to a number of useful avocations. He will do business or take to agriculture and also engage himself in philosophical lectures and dissertations, and thereby benefit financially.

Here again, the constellation and the sign held by the 2nd lord determine the exact nature and sources of earnings. Powerful afflictions will cause loss from the very same sources.

11. In the Eleventh House.—Health will be bad during childhood, earns considerable wealth but becomes unscrupulous. When well fortified, one earns by lending money or as a banker or by running a boarding house.

12. In the Twelfth House.—The native becomes a respectable man. In all probability he will be a government servant, and will be deprived of the happiness of elder brother. The income will be through ecclesiastical sources. If the second lord is afflicted, he will lose money on this account.

Important Combinations

We give below some important combinations which reveal the nature of the second house in its fullness.

If the second lord is in the 2nd with evil planets or aspected by him, he will be poor. Ordinary wealth is indicated if Saturn is in the 2nd aspected by Venus.

If the Moon and Mars reside in the 2nd bhava and Saturn aspects it, he suffers from a peculiar skin disease.

The situation of Mercury in the 2nd with another evil planet aspected by the Moon is bad for saving money. Eevn if there is any ancestral wealth, it will be spent—rather wasted on extravagant purposes.

The Sun in the 2nd without being aspected by Saturn is favourable for a steady fortune.

If the lord of the 2nd is Jupiter or Jupiter resides unaspected by malefics, there will be much wealth. He loses wealth if Mercury (aspected by the Moon) contacts this combination.

The Moon being placed in the 2nd and aspected by Mercury is favourable for earning money by self-exertion.

If lords of the 2nd and 11th interchange their places or both are in kendras or quadrants and one aspected or joined by Mercury or Jupiter, the person will be pretty rich. He will be poor if lords of the 2nd and 3rd are in the 6th with or aspected by evil planets.

One will always be indigent if lords of the 2nd and 11th remain separate without evil planets or aspected by them. Money will be spent on moral purposes when Jupiter is in the 11th house, Venus in the 2nd and its lord with benefics.

If the 2nd lord is with good planets in a kendra or if the 2nd house has all the good association and aspects he will be on good terms with relatives.

One becomes a good mathematician if Mars is in the 2nd with the Moon or aspected by Mercury. The same result can be foretold if Jupiter is in the ascendant and Saturn in the 8th or if Jupiter is in a quadrant and the lord of Lagna or Mercury is exalted.

The person will be an able debator if the Sun or the Moon is aspected by Jupiter or Venus.

The eye suffers if the second lord is with Venus or the subject becomes night-blind if the Sun and the Moon are in the second.

A person suffers penalty or false charges are brought against him if lords of the 2nd and 11th are in the 6th, 8th or 12th, Mars in the 11th, and Rahu in the 2nd.

He suffers from eye disease if the 2nd lord is in the 6th, 8th or 12th. If the 2nd lord is strong his eye-sight will be good. The eye becomes injured if lord of the 2nd joins Saturn, Mars or Gulika. Saturn in the 2nd is unfavourable for good eye-sight.

Lord of the 2nd in a very weak position makes the person helpless and lead a very wretched existence.

One will stammer or become dumb if the lord of the 2nd is debilitated, is in the 2nd or 8th with evil planets.

If the lord of the 12th be in the 2nd or vice versa, the subject loses wealth under penalty. If lord of the 2nd occupies the 8th with malefics in debility and the Sun combines with him, losses will occur through Government executions and fines.

If the lords of the 2nd and 12th remain in the 2nd or 12th and are aspected by the lord of Lagna, he loses money by offending the authorities.

One will be always in debt if evil planets are in the 2nd and lord of ascendant is in the 12th, aspected or joined by lord of the 10th or 11th.

If Jupiter, Venus or Mercury reside in the 2nd being elevated the person supports many men.

If the 2nd lord is in elevation and occupies a kendra, if the ascendant lord is strong and if the lord of the house where the 2nd lord is, remains in a kendra, the subject will acquire a princely fortune.

One acquires great wealth if lord of Lagna is in the 2nd, the 2nd lord is in the 11th or 11th lord is in Lagna.

One becomes rich in his young age if the 2nd lord is with the 10th lord aspected by the planet who is lord of the Navamsa occupied by the ascendant lord.

Take a horoscope in which Aquarius is Lagna and Saturn occupies Taurus in Navamsa. Then if Jupiter (lord of 2) is with Mars (10th lord) and aspected by Venus (who is the lord of the Navamsa occupied by lord ascendant), the man earns when quite young.

One will also earn well in his young age when lord of the 2nd is in the 10th aspected by either the lord of Lagna or the planet who is lord of Lagna in Navamsa.

If the 2nd and 11th lords associate with the ascendant lord and occupy kendra having acquired Kalabala (temporal strength) then the subject earns in his middle life.

If the third house is a common sign (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces) and its lord is situated there and aspected by benefics, much wealth will be earned or acquired during the Dasa of such a planet by thousands. This combination naturally applies to cases where only movable signs are on the ascendant.

If the third happens to be a fixed sign and the above combination in respect of the lord occurs, the earnings will be by hundreds. A movable sign in the third with quite similar combinations enables one to earn within two hundred.

Saturn or Mars, debilitated in the 11th from Arudha Lagna, give good earnings. If Arudha Lagna falls in the 11th, 4th, 5th or 7th from Lagna, then also the person becomes rich.

Poverty

Extreme poverty is caused if lord of Lagna is in the 12th with or aspected by a Maraka planet. The same result could be expected if there is exchange of houses between 1st and 6th lords—either of these remaining with or aspected by a Maraka planet.

If malefics — not owning the 9th and 10th—are in the ascendant in company with or aspected by a Maraka, the man will be extremely poor.

If Lagna is occupied by Saturn and hemmed in between malefics, fortune will be destroyed. Jupiter’s aspect or association will however counteract the evil indication.

If Lagna is a movable sign occupied by Saturn or Ketu and hemmed in between malefics, not only poverty is caused but the body will be deformed.

If either the 6th, 8th or 12th from Lagna becomes Arudha, the man will suffer poverty.

Planets in the Second House

1. The Sun.—This is not quite a favourable situation. Losses will occur by offending the authorities. He will have a diseased face. He will obtain money by industrious effort. The nature of the income depends on the nature of the sign. He will be stubborn and peevish.

2. The Moon.—He will have a large family and will enjoy much happiness. Money will also be obtained through females. The financial position will be somewhat variable, will have a fair complexion.

Dhundiraja, a noted astrological writer of yore, says that when the Moon is in the 2nd house, the native will be reserved and not much sociable, squint eyed and much admired.

3. Mars.—Becomes quarrelsome. Good earning powers but usually miserly. Much money is accumulated. A good conversationalist. He will befriend evil-minded persons, be unsympathetic and pick up quarrels with all.

4. Mercury.—Learned in religious and philosophical lore. Denotes gain by lecturing, business and commercial affairs. Becomes rich. Highly intelligent. He spends money on charities and moral purposes. Clever in earning money and careful and thrifty.

5. Jupiter.—Becomes a poet, a great writer, astrologer or even a scientist. Increases the chances for success. He accumulates fortune, good wife and family surroundings. He will not quarrel with others. Money will be acquired through things indicated by the signs ruled by Jupiter.

6. Venus.—Large family. Money usually comes readily by favours from others. Eats good food, possesses conveyances. Handsome appearance, skillful and pleasant, will marry a good wife or husband. Health and wealth are indicated in a large measure.

7. Saturn.—Saturn, unless the second is Libra, Capricorn or Aquarius, tends to make earning an uphill struggle. Much work with little gain. Harsh speech, unsocial, sorrowful and roaming about aimlessly the person comes across many opportunities but seldom takes advantage of them. In family life he will be unhappy. He will gain by dealing with metals, storage, mines, labour, etc. He will be unpopular.

8. Rahu.—Peevish, diseased face, friction in family life, danger to eye-sight. Financial affairs uncertain unless other favourable combinations occur. If Jupiter aspects the second house, then earnings will be good. Money is gained through friends and business.

9. Ketu.—Bad speaker. Loss through fraud and deception. There will be liability in financial affairs. Success in spiritualism, navigation, mystical arts, hospital, etc., may be expected.

Chart No. 1 – The Second House.—The second house in this chart contains four planets the Sun, the Moon, Mars and Mercury. The position of Mars in the 2nd is bad. This blemish is cancelled because Mars is in his own house.

The Moon is debilitated, but even this evil effect is cancelled as Jupiter in exaltation aspects this combination. The second house therefore is very strongly situated.

The Second Lord.—As the 2nd lord is in his own house with Mercury lord of the 9th, he is strong. Exalted Jupiter aspects Mars. In the Navamsa also Mars is free from evil aspects or associations.

Lord of Wealth.—(Dhanakaraka).—Jupiter is exalted and aspects the 2nd house and is in the 9th from the 2nd and 10th from the Lagna. Jupiter in his turn is aspected by exalted Saturn who is a Yogakaraka for this horoscope.

Because all the three factors connected with the second house are strong and well fortified, there are indications of immense wealth. The planets mostly influencing the second house are Mars, Mereury, the Moon, the Sun and Jupiter and Ketu.

Ketu must give the results of the Sun, lord of the 11th (gain). Mercury is lord of the 9th (fortune) and is in the 2nd. In Ketu Dasa, Mercury’s Bhukti, the subject inherited an empire.

Chart No. 2 – The Second House.—Mars is in the 2nd in this chart. Jupiter lord of the 3rd and the 12th aspects the second. Both are bad.

The Second Lord.—Lord of the 2nd is in the 3rd, this is bad for finance. In the Navamsa, Saturn is in the 7th with a bitter enemy Lord of Wealth.—Jupiter is in the 8th from Lagna and aspected by Mars.

Conclusion.—Almost all the planets have what is called Dwirdwadasa dispositions (being in the 12th and 2nd from each other). This is an unfavourable combination which always retards success in life. Saturn’s sub-period in Mars Dasa was a bit favourable from the financial point of view. The horoscope is that of an ordinary man.
