The Succedent Houses: 2nd, 5th, 8th, and 11th are “homes” for our establishment and security concerns – needs/resources, creativity, shared resources, and community. The 2nd House deals with our personal finances, food, and shelter. The 5th House deals with how we build our self-confidence through play, competition, and performance. The 8th House “lords” over shared resources and how we deal with changes in life, which require us to have stable identities and finances. And the 11th House helps us understand where and how we need to “fit” in our community and society.

Below are two charts, cast on the same day, but at different times, to help understand how the signs change rulership of the houses throughout any given day.
