What Role the Second House Plays in Your Life?
Since the Second House represents our Quest for Resources, it is the area of the chart representing that quest by Signs and Points (if any are in this segment of the chart). If you have no Points in this House or Sign, then the energy is waiting to respond. Therefore, Points that progress or transit into this House will activate the energy at specific times in your life. People who have Points in the Sign that rules your 2nd House will also activate this area of your life.
If you have a Point or several Points in this House, then the values and concerns of this House will take on the significance of the Point or Points involved. Suppose your Sun occupies this House. If so, then your Life Path will be devoted to “what you have and value within yourself and offer to others”. Your approach to money, your body, and your possession will take on primary importance in your life journey.

The Second House and the Zodiac Signs
The Second House in astrology reveals your energetic disposition to safety, security, and your home. Depending on the Sign of your 2nd House, astrologers can interpret how you work, act, and make choices to feel secure and get your needs met. The Air Signs will use their intellect and communication to get their needs met. Fire Signs will use creativity and action. Earth Signs will be practical and conservative. Water Signs will invest their emotional energy and use close connections to be safe.
Aries Ruling the Second House
Aries is a Fire Sign overlaying an Earth House. So, individuals with this Sign/House combination will rely on independent and maverick behavior to get their needs met. Resources can come and go rather easily because they get what they need in the present moment, which is not a sound strategy for building and accumulating wealth. However, these people will rarely be without; and if they are, they can quickly get what they need through immediate action to resolve the problem. They are also likely to be “nomadic” or see home as “where the heart is”.
Taurus Ruling the Second House
Taurus is the Earth Sign that rules this House. Individuals with the Sign/House combination prefer to establish themselves and put down roots to get their needs met. Resources are carefully gathered, stored, and protected, so they can accumulate and build wealth slowly over a lifetime. These are people who like to leave a legacy of resources behind for others to use. Home is most definitely a physical place, and hopefully, somewhere they can be rooted and feel as safe and secure as possible.
Gemini Ruling the Second House

If lack happens, they can quickly remedy the problem by adjusting their network of support or creating an entirely new one. They, too, can be “nomadic”, building a home in their mind rather than in a place in the world.
Cancer Ruling the Second House
Cancer is a Water Sign overlaying an Earth House. Individuals with this Sign/House combination will rely on family and nurturing emotional connections to get their needs met. Resources hold emotional value for these people, and like Taurus, their concerns around finances and security are deeply rooted in their ability to have a place to build memories and keep themselves and others emotionally safe. They will be thinking about their children and their parents when it comes to personal finances and the home. A fantastic kitchen and dining space will bring them great joy.
