Sun in the 2nd house — strength through money and what is your own

Sun in the 2nd house — in the area of money and values: self-respect is tied to what you have earned.

What it means

It matters to have your own — income, things, savings; your confidence rests on them. A clear money result adds to your strength.

The flip side is that your self-esteem falls together with your income.

Not about you if money and property do not affect how you feel about yourself.

How to check it on yourself

Each statement below may turn out to be false about you — that’s how it’s written. Check it against your past, and write your answer down before you compare it with the chart. The first item checks the calculation itself, the rest — the interpretation.

  1. If your Sun is in the 2nd house

    What should match. Your birth time falls in the middle third of the interval from true midnight to sunrise. Sunrise and sunset for the day and city of your birth are in any astronomical calendar; true noon is exactly halfway between them, true midnight is twelve hours after noon.

    When it’s not about you. The time on your birth record doesn’t fall in this window and is more than a quarter of an hour from its edge — then the wrong time, time zone or city went into the calculation, and the houses in the chart aren’t yours. This checks the calculation, not the interpretation.

  2. If you have the Sun in the 2nd house

    What should match. Think of your hardest period with money. Your self-confidence then was noticeably lower than usual.

    When it’s not about you. Money ran out, and your confidence did not change — then this is not about you.

Why the Sun’s house gives away your birth time and where to find true noon — on the page of all houses. How we check the rest — the site’s method.
