Keywords: Money, possessions, income, self-worth, talent, what you own
The 2nd house describes what you earn and own yourself. Money is its most visible part but not the only one: skills, resources and your own sense of worth live here too.
Traditional astrology reads this house concretely: income, movable property, livelihood. Modern astrology adds self-worth and links the two: how much you value yourself shapes how much you ask for.
If the house is empty
If it is empty, look to the ruler of the sign on the 2nd house cusp. It shows which area of life the income comes from.
