Jupiter in Capricorn

Jupiter in Capricorn is a debilitated placement. Capricorn is one of the most serious astrological signs. It is ruled by Saturn which is the taskmaster of the planets. Jupiter will be less free wheeling as it does a year long transit in this Cardinal Earth sign. 

This personality type finds expansion through structure. They are good at directing events. Their gift is one which is practical. They can become caught up on financial rewards. This can stymy their successes in life. Typically they are ethical people. Their conduct is mature and pragmatic. Integrity is a pronounced personality trait. Goals are directed towards long term achievement. Short term gratification is not something strived for. 





Mars In The 8th House

Mars in the 8th House is a difficult placement. The 8th house governs things which are Scorpionic. Scorpio has a dark reputation in astrology. It is a mysterious astrological sign associated with secrets, death, rebirth, sexuality, inheritances, and other people's money. This house is one of the most misunderstood. 

Mars in the 8th house represents several things which can occur in a lifetime. It is common to have a negative experience sexually. There can be abuse in the childhood. This will make a person mistrustful of others. In this placement Mars because very suspicious of the motivations of other people. With this Mars there is heightened perceptiveness which can see through deceitful behavior. Some people with this placement can also be a victim of a sexually transmitted disease. There can also be a lot of conflict in areas involving money.  There might be fighting within your family over inheritance money.

This placement is good for a person who needs a strong drive to accomplish something. An individual with this Mars will be extremely willful and full of intense personal desires. There can be many issues in this life which will upset them. These lessons are from karmic debt. Some astrologers associate the 8th house to things that occurred in our previous lifetime. Loss occurs in order for you to learn not to be possessive.

They have a deep appreciation for beauty. Music is very powerful for them. Music is something they can use as a potent healing tool. Their nature is very compassionate. Seeing somebody in agony upsets them. Harsh visual images will have a deep impact on them. They have very vivid imaginations. This means that harsh details will greatly upset them. They need to retreat into a world of daydreams in order to unload all of this stress. 

This aspect can have a few negative implications. They may become too enmeshed in their daydreams. Practical efforts might be difficult for them to pursue. There might be a certain degree of laziness to their personalities. They would rather daydream than get down to harsh and challenging work. Shyness and a certain timidity may inhibit them on a social level. Their passivity may lead them to putting up with people who treat them badly.
