Uranus or Aqua Planets 2nd House

"When Uranus or Aquarius planets are prominent in the vocational houses (2, 6, 10), the career path is inextricably tied to the Uranian quest to develop our individuality and our unique genius, no matter how difficult that may make survival at times. Through our work, we announce to the world, “This is who I am, like it or lump it.

Those who present this motto with charm and wit generally get a better reception than those who do it with a chip on the shoulder. Some with difficult Uranus placements prominent are moved by a deep, almost claustrophobic need for self-preservation where their individuality is concerned. They can’t simply conform, even if that sometimes makes it hard to pay the rent.

Those with Uranus or Aquarian planets in the 2nd are Aquarian where they’re most expected to be Taurean. For many of them, there is a certain excitement in living on the edge of financial ruin.

..it develops the Uranians’ capacity to be innovative, highly independent, and sharp as a whip about survival. It also helps them detach from depending on money for security or self-worth. This detachment can also extend to their varied skills and abilities, for they’re not as identified with their work as people with Uranus in the 10th or 6th. They consider that paycheck just a means to an end.

The brighter ones keep pace with society’s leading edge, and from time to time, their innovations or fascinations precisely fit our culture’s needs or current fads.

....

Successful people with this placement are canny enough to recognize that money is freedom. They’re careful about making and stashing away enough to give them the freedom not to have to do work they hate, but they invent ways of making money that don’t entail a permanent commitment.

For multi-talented individuals, diversification is often their strategy to avoid settling into a single, eventually boring enterprise or line of work. They easily pick up any number of marketable skills and stay on the leading edge. Having more than one way of earning a living is their hedge against the fiscal ups and downs so typical of this placement. If one sideline is flat-lining, another may be doing well."

"When the eccentric planet of Uranus is positioned in the second house, its unconventional behavior affects all financial matters of the native. Being the most unpredictable planet, Uranus does not grant a stable pattern of income and expenses. This does not mean living in poverty, but rather having an unusual approach towards money and belonging. The native’s soul regards money and bills as walls limiting his freedom, as unwanted responsibilities that just distract from the real targets of life.

A second house Uranus person will usually have unique methods of earning money. They can earn through technology and electronics, while also in extreme situations through genius inventions and design of gadgets. A lot of people with this aspect are occupied in programming professions, and their mind is great for informatics technology. Second house Uranus individuals have a great talent in advertising and all innovative ideas.

....

Uranus in the second house tends to give unsettled finances. The planet’s eruptive behavior gives unexpected earnings and expenses. The native might be used to a rather minimal life, without luxury, and even when getting rich not changing his attitude towards wealth. There will be a tendency to buy odd and eccentric things, and this might even affect the interior decoration of one’s home. Such natives are strongly drawn towards asymmetry. In any case, money is never something important for them, being for them just a necessary tool for moving in their reality. If Uranus is forming a trine with Venus or Jupiter located in the 5th house, the aspect is ideal for gambling, lucky games, stock exchange and speculation. The unpredictable nature of Uranus might gift huge amounts of wealth in the least expected moment.

In case that Uranus is adversely aspected by Mars, Saturn or Pluto, the native’s finances will constantly pass critical situations. Unexpected expenses will frequently occur, and there will be difficulties in creating a stable pattern in issues of the second house. Especially when Mars is involved, the person can get robbed or otherwise violently lose what he has earned. Also, his earnings are in danger of some fraudulent behavior by his employer, business partner or co-workers, depending on if the 6th, the 7th or the 10th house is somehow involved in the situation.

For some individuals with Uranus in the second house, the risk of living a bohemian life is very appealing. They can enjoy in chaotic financial situations, as the air of freedom blowing around them is making them feel totally alive. This aspect can even create vagabonds or conscious homeless, without having a real reason of becoming one. This could be an act of rebellion against the financial system, but the roots lay deep in the childhood and the native’s upbringing...."

"A lot of people can place their esteem on their earning capacity, along with a sense of self-value, and worth. Thus, a lot can be riding on this house when it comes to how well we feel we provide. Even the less materially inclined would agree that money does have its benefits, its fruitful and rewarding values, especially for giving an individual a sense of security, but as it is stated – there are many other pursuits that can give us a sense of feeling rooted in our environment such as knowledge, religion, and spiritual interests.

Earth signs and houses are related to the physical body, earthy reality, and represents what is heavy in nature, stays still; it can be concrete and relied upon. When we enter an earthy house we are in the world of self-sufficiency and of earning money, building upon our skills and working towards a goal (2nd, 6th, and 10th house), therefore when a planet is placed in one of these houses it affects the material world, and with an outer planet like Uranus it can shake the stability internally and externally.

Uranus is the planet of shocks, revolution, rebellion and individualism. The planet functions in erratic and unpredictable ways, but this is also a highly original energy, and things are likely to be approached in a different way. The individual with Uranus placed in the 2nd house may need a lot of freedom when it comes to earning a living, but there can also be unexpected changes in this house and the sense of security may be shattered.

The money could come in and out sporadically, and there might be irregular patterns involved in the material sphere. If Uranus is aspected by a benefic planet (Venus or Jupiter) there may be times of sudden windfalls. If Uranus is in difficult aspect there are usually uncomfortable and abrupt changes that are unsettling, and also, money coming through unexpected sources in both cases.

Other unforeseen happenings appear in the individual’s life that forces them into changing, pushing the person towards developing other avenues that are unexplored and ones that are often reluctantly resisted. It can come as a shock, at first, to be thrown into new territory into a completely different job, but it can help the individual see things from a brand new perspective and perceive the untapped potential that can be fulfilled. On the highest level of expression, it is exhilarating, exciting and fulfilling when the individual allows the self to be opened up by the experience."

"However, the more a person digs in their heels, keeping two feet firmly planted on the ground, and if there is extreme resistance to any kind of alteration this placement is more difficult, challenging and upsetting. Uranus here can completely change the person’s original values, and they will see a change in their personal world. Alan Oken’s Complete Astrology: The Classic Guide to Modern Astrologyinterpretation of Uranus in the 2nd house sounds particularly Plutonian:

“As sudden circumstances which change personal finances. This could take the form of ideas leading to increase or drastic circumstances that one’s finances are completely “wiped out.”

Usually, when something is completely wiped out, it is called a clean sweep and usually belongs to Pluto. However, it could all signify the shocking nature of having one’s finances removed and changed drastically.

The person with Uranus placed in this position, can “use” their sense of originality, uniqueness, and intellectual ability in a practical way. Perhaps independent work is sought, and sometimes this suits the person well since they hate to feel caged financially or be overly dependent on others for income. Uranus will not be tied down, and the person may need to avoid businesses and companies, as there is the chance of feeling trapped in this world and of no further possibilities arising or as fate would have it these places close suddenly, cut jobs unexpectedly, and things turn upside down all at once.

The purpose of this placement is to allow the individual to experience variation, freedom, change and the ability to break free from the “normal” ways of earning a living. Using their originality in the world, it can mean that a job may involve unusual hours, or the work isn’t dependable. The person needs to watch out for those crazy spending moments, and rebellious times when they really don’t give a hoot about saving for a rainy day. It might manifest in a live for the moment attitude in regards to savings, and it is also difficult for Uranus to settle for the ordinary in terms of earning potential."

"The individual could discover and think of new and untried ways of making money, breaking ground. It offers the individual a more promising future in regards to their financial situation. The main essence is the sense of liberation one feels and also a certain level of detachment. All that is often needed is a different perspective, an alternative view to swing things back around. The person may not care too much about the material world, and cut it all loose.

The dynamic and electric vibration of Uranus in this house is incorporating more enlightened views in regards to one’s values. Uranus here makes finances unpredictable, but there is always potential. Uranus lives for the future of any individual’s capabilities, and this placement helps to unfold and manifest those in material form.

Through Uranus in the 2nd house, one can realize their personal gifts and talents and sometimes it can mean the actual earning a living out of Urnanian pursuits such as having a talent for astrology, technology, psychology, science, engineering, and the occult field. Astrologer Jeff Green calls the 2nd house archetype: “the instinct to survive, and this involves becoming aware of resources”.

Many people never use their full resources completely, often having talents in a different area, but never really developing those abilities. An individual with Uranus in the 2nd house is discovering and exploring those talents. Jeff Green is an evolutionary astrologer, and the reading is focused on soul-growth and Uranus in the horoscope is about stimulating awareness and offers important and relevant information about this planetary position:

The liberation and freedom from the known with Uranus in the 2nd house means to break free from any value system, life style , resource, use or application, or excessive dependency issue that restricts, inhibits, or does not allow for the individuality of the person to be developed. Liberation means to establish values and a life style that reflects what the individual inherently is; it means to become more self-reliant and non-dependent. Freedom from the known means to change as necessary what is valued to allow new resources to evolve as required; to use and establish those resources in new ways that allow for individual…survival. Jeffrey Wolf Green Evolutionary Astrology: Uranus: Freedom from the Known"

"Uranus in the 2nd house can be an indication if the financially independent individual. The 2nd house is personal talents, abilities, and skills and one must withdraw this energy to use in helping build a future, one that fulfills their creative potential and also offers freedom and a new way of looking at the power of one’s personal resources."

I'm trying to accept, work with my Sagi Uranus & Saturn in my 2nd house.

"People who have one or both planets in a vocational house (2nd, 6th, or 10th) or aspecting the Midheaven may work very hard to establish a career or business and, because of their many gifts and capabilities, may enjoy an enviable success. In the course of a lifetime, there are likely to be several dramatic shifts in career direction as they become so bored and restless that they start over from scratch."

Anytime i read something like this, i feel like i dodged a bullet with this aquarian characteristic.

I can't identify with excitement of being at the edge of financial ruin and stability is a prerequisite of success. Very few good things come out of the instability of chaos.

Money is freedom indeed.

I also do not identify. I hate gambling or taking chances with money. I have Uranus but also Saturn in the 2nd. It's ridiculous.
