Jupiter in Cancer in the Eighth House

The placement of Jupiter in Cancer indicates that you have an inclination toward a mode of expansive energy, which is emotional and often cautious and self-limiting. One implication of this quality is that your expansive endeavors are likely to be undertaken within arenas in which you feel emotionally safe. Much of the behavior and many of the personality characteristics associated with Jupiter in Cancer are a result of your need to expand through nurturing and being nurtured and only in directions where you do not feel threatened.

With Jupiter in Cancer, you tend to understand the world and humanity’s place in it from an emotional perspective. You are inclined to seek the roots of things before you feel comfortable with going further. Having Jupiter in Cancer, you are also likely to understand your world in terms of the heritage that you have experienced and which has conditioned you. If your understanding goes to a deeper level, life is often seen by you as a cyclic process.

The placement of Jupiter and Cancer is often problematic, but may be fruitful within the confined limits of safety and comfort. This is symbolized by the natural quincunx between Cancer and Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius. Cancer is the Cardinal Water sign. The tendency to withdraw for protection, which is associated with Cancer, symbolically defines limits within which the functions associated with Jupiter may operate. With Jupiter in Cancer, tension arises when the Jupiterian urge to expand reaches these limits and you are inhibited from crossing this self-imposed boundary. Within this purview, however, the watery softness associated with the Moon, Cancer’s ruler, blends well with Jupiter’s mellow and beneficent aura.

Inseguranças

As an individual with Jupiter in Cancer, in your insecurity, you feel that you must reach outward to assert and validate your ego, but you are afraid to make yourself emotionally vulnerable. Often, you may feel called upon by life to give, particularly emotionally, to the point of your exhaustion. You often lack the self-esteem and self-confidence to say, “no”, so you overextend yourself and set yourself up for an excess/burn out/shut down syndrome. Alternatively, with Jupiter in Cancer, you may learn to guard yourself against those emotional demands that others make of you and that would take you past your limits of vulnerability. You may also feel that you are always bumping up against limits. This may cause you to feel frustrated, but you are too timid to break through these limits.

Jupiter in the 8th House:

Jupiter in the 8th House is at somewhat of a disadvantage, due to the private and introverted tendencies associated with the 8th house. Jupiter is associated with expansion and outgoingness, so its energy is not the best fit for the 8th House. Nevertheless, Jupiter symbolizes beneficence wherever it occurs in the chart. Thus, with Jupiter in the 8th House you can expect that enjoyment, good fortune and engagement will proceed from your 8th House activities.

These activities certainly include, but are not limited to, sexuality and other intimate qualities of relacionamento. The 8th House is also associated with the  exercise of power and close dealings with people through organization and management, shared resources and resources or security that are derived from others,  birth and death, the study of the occult or the attempt to unify with a primal power,  and regenerative activities. Your attitude with respect to any of these activities will generally be one of enjoyment and pursuit with gusto. You are likely to take an expansive role when engaged in these activities and you have the opportunity to expand your horizons and grow personally through any of these activities. With Jupiter in the 8th House, you may also seek growth and understanding as a means of regeneration or as a means of bringing yourself in touch with your inner power.

You may also have a tendency to engage excessively in 8th House activities and this is one of the primary dangers of Jupiter in the 8th House. You may use the activities associated with the 8th House as substitutes for facing problems and challenges – such activities become an avenue to “take the easy way out.” You may also sometimes appear shy or aloof because you take so much pleasure in private, intimate affairs.

Focus for Expansion and Growth

With Jupiter in the 8th House, your expansive tendencies will manifest as you acquire greater intimacy with yourself and with your social surroundings. This will also allow you to more effectively engage in growth-producing activities. These may include managing others or the maturation of primary personal relacionamentos. You may also experience growth and expanded horizons through the agency of others, particularly when resources are shared or bequeathed. Having Jupiter in the 8th House, you may experience some frustration if you have difficulty manifesting your expansive energies. If you are unable to express the fruits of the internal growth that you have achieved, you may feel inadequate and worthless or unappreciated by society.

Foco do bem-estar

As an individual with Jupiter in the 8th House, your feelings of well-being, generosity and good fortune will appear most often and be enhanced in intimate settings or when you are engaged in sharing or managing others’ resources. This sense of well-being may not be externally expressed, as much as it is internally felt. You may experience this sense of well-being more often as a rejuvenation or regeneration of energy and spirit.
