2nd house lord sitting in 12th house
Today, 2nd house lord sitting in 12th house.
So first of all, let's see what 2nd house and 12th house represent -
2nd house represents Family, Wealth, Speech, Family Lineage, Values, Mouth, Face, Throat, food you like to eat, Assets etc.
12th house is house of Losses, Expenses, Isolated Places, Spirituality, Foreign Lands, Foreign Companies, Imagination, Sub-Concious Mind, Charity, Donation, Asylums, Jails, Hospitals, Hidden Talent and Secrets of Other World etc.
One thing to always keep in mind with 12th house is that it basically remains the house of losses. So, whichever planet goes in 12th house, even exalted, is in the bucket of losses. Now, to gain out of any such planet, you need to put double effort in things related with that planet.
Now, what does it mean to have 2nd house lord sitting in 12th house?
It means the planet which rules/controls/owns the 2nd house of your horoscope is sitting in the 12th house of horoscope.
Now, what is the impact of having 2nd house lord sitting in 12th house?
Its generic interpretation is that person's wealth and resources are coming from working in foreign lands, in isolated places, MNCs. These people can earn through their imagination, like through writing. It also shows someone's family settled in foreign lands. One thing to remember here is that 12th house is house of losses. So, any planet sitting there in 12th house means person will suffer loss of some thing or the other related with that planet, but it is not that all things related with that planet will be a matter of loss. As means of conveyance has become affordable, this has become one of the positions related with Foreign Settlements.
Now, results may be different due to aspect, conjunctions of other planets or the planet being Retrograde or Combust. Moreover, now we also need to check the strength of 12th house lord as 2nd house lord is going in 12th house. So again, Overall Chart Reading is important.
So, let's see how different planets will behave differently as 2nd house Lord in 12th house.
Sun - Suppose it is a Cancer Ascendant chart and Sun rules the 2nd house with Leo sign and sits in the 12th house in the sign of Gemini. So, 1st of all it is in a neutral sign. It shows that not only wealth but sense of self and personality also came to person only when he moved to foreign lands. It shows someone has Career in the field of communication in foreign lands or MNCs. It shows person in Govt Job in foreign lands as spokesperson or diplomat. It also shows loss of company of father due to various reasons in early childhood.
Moon - So it is Gemini Ascendant Chart and Moon rules the 2nd house and sits in 12th house in Taurus, where it is exalted. It shows a highly imaginative person who loves to day dream a lot. Through this day-dreaming, they turn out to be very creative person like writer or film maker and make their wealth. As Moon is exalted, shows nursing profession and 12th house is also house of hospitals, it shows someone in medical field. Overall, a very imaginative and creative mind.
Mars - Mars can be 2nd house ruler through its two signs. So, let's take both one after the other.
Pisces Ascendant - So if it is Pisces Ascendant, Mars rules 2nd & 9th house and sits in 12th house in Aquarius sign. It shows someone working with large organizations. MNCs in foreign lands and earning wealth, but as Mars is not too good in Aquarius sign, it shows that person remains frustrated with his wealth, no matter how much he earns. As Mars also represents brothers, it shows that your brother was working abroad who helped you in getting there. It shows someone in field of Technology and Machinery.
Libra Ascendant - Now if it is Libra Ascendant, Mars rules 2nd & 7th house and sits in 12th house in Virgo sign. As Virgo is sign of healing and disputes, here Mars takes a totally different approach and becomes someone who is either a doctor or an attorney in foreign lands. It also shows someone travelling into Foreign Lands as a Soldier or Athlete. In both positions of Mars, as it is in not so friendly signs, person remains dissatisfied from the wealth he is earning.
Mercury - Mercury also can be 2nd house ruler through its two signs. So, let's take both one after the other.
Taurus Ascendant - If it is Taurus Ascendant, Mercury rules 2nd & 5th houses and sits in 12th house in Aries sign. This makes the person real imaginative person in 12th house. These people can also become nice authors. At the same time, this also can make a person technician as energy between Mars and Mercury is getting exchanged but if other things related with Career of Author works, then it is always better for them to follow a career in writing.
Leo Ascendant - If it is Leo Ascendant, then Mercury rules 2nd & 11th house and sits in 12th house in Cancer. Another position for being author and actually this one is better as Mercury is in the sign of Cancer. Cancer is sign of Emotions, so whatever they write, they will do so with full of emotions. So, they can write real good emotional stories. In both the positions of Mercury, person has the potential to become a businessman at foreign lands. They can be in any business related with communications.
Venus - Venus also can be 2nd house ruler through its two signs. So, let's take both one after the other.
Aries Ascendant - If it is an Aries Ascendant, Venus rules 2nd & 7th house and sits in 12th house in Pisces sign, where it is exalted. A highly creative person, whose creativity will be appreciated in Foreign Lands and will bring wealth. They can have great career in movies, theater and dancing. A rare talent.
Virgo Ascendant - If it is Virgo Ascendant, Venus rules 2nd & 9th house and sits in 12th house in Leo. Another Creative position of Venus as planet of creativity is in the sign of creativity and in the house of creative pursuits. Career in Movies or any place where they can be at Center Stage. In both positions of Venus, a person is creating relations with people of Foreign Origins. For a Man, it is surely a case of meeting wife in Foreign Lands.
Jupiter - Jupiter also can be 2nd house ruler through its two signs. So, let's take both one after the other.
Scorpio Ascendant - If it is Scorpio Ascendant, Jupiter rules 2nd & 5th house and sits in 12th house in Libra Sign.This shows someone making wealth through finance related business in Foreign Lands. As Jupiter also represents Law, these people may be in Legal field in Foreign Lands. For a lady, it shows husband has some foreign land connection. It shows someone meeting his Guru either in Foreign Lands or Isolated places like Ashrams.
Aquarius Ascendant - If it is Aquarius Ascendant, Jupiter rules 2nd & 11th house and sits in 12th house in Capricorn, where it is debilitated. If Jupiter is at right degrees of debilitation, then it shows that person will meet some fake Guru in Foreign Lands or Isolated places who will become cause of loss of his wealth. Else it shows someone is earning wealth from Legal Profession or being a Counselor in Foreign Lands. Wealth will come surely but person will not feel happy about it. Both positions also show that person himself or children may go to foreign lands for study.
Saturn - Saturn also can be 2nd house ruler through its two signs.
In either sign (Capricorn/Aquarius) as 2nd house lord, Saturn in 12th house (for Sagittarius/Capricorn Ascendants respectively) shows that there is lots of struggle and hard work involved in going into Foreign Lands. Person will try a lot but real chance of reaching there will come in 30s only. Now, as it will delay the access to foreign lands, it will also delay the exit from Foreign Lands, means person will go there for a very long time and coming back to homeland will be an equally long struggle. Clearly shows someone in the field of Law in Foreign Lands or works in Legal Teams of MNCs.
Rahu - If Rahu is 2nd house Lord through its sign Aquarius, as it co-rules Aquarius along with Saturn, and sits in 12th house in Sagittarius then 1st of all we need to make sure of Saturn's position as it is the main ruler. Rahu in Sagittarius in 12th house shows someone who has great inclination towards study of different religions and cultures and almost obsessed with religious beliefs. Rahu in 12th house at the same time makes a person spendthrift, so they need to be careful about their expenses.
Ketu - Likewise, If Ketu is 2nd house Lord through its sign Scorpio, as it co-rules Scorpio along with Mars, and sits in 12th house in Virgo then 1st of all we need to make sure of Mars' position as it is the main ruler. As Ketu isolates/separates a person from the things related to the house Ketu is sitting, here it actually isolates person from the concept of spiritual beliefs spread by others. They never find themselves agree with the concepts of spirituality of others and always find fault there. Similarly, they reach foreign land but don't find anything of interest there and feel isolated. It is one of the most prominent Moksha Margi position.
Hope this covers maximum points and is helpful.
