2nd house overlay
Their planet in your 2nd house: they affect what you consider yourself worth, and often what you spend.
What this house covers, and how often it fills
This house pairs with the 8th across the chart — shared resources, exposure and what is not said aloud — and the two work as one axis. A planet landing here is also, by definition, opposing whatever sits there, so the two readings belong together rather than separately.
It is a succedent house, which follows an angle and describes what accumulates there rather than what initiates. Its natural ruler is Venus, so a partner's venus arriving here doubles the theme rather than adding a new one.
The 2–8 axis
Money, possessions and self-worth sits opposite shared resources, exposure and what is not said aloud. A planet in one is automatically opposing the other, so an overlay here is always a statement about both — they affect what you consider yourself worth, and often what you spend, measured against they get access to the material you do not hand over casually — money, fear, sex.
