Can you explain the effects of having Jupiter in the eighth house on an individual’s personality and how they are perceived by others?

Jupiter is one of the most benefic planets as per Vedic Astrology.

Jupiter is linked to

• Finances
• Wisdom
• Higher learning
• Growth as a person
• Husband in a female’s chart
• Karaka linked to Children in a person’s chart
• Guru/Teacher/Mentor

The list goes on……

It is said that Jupiter is the only planet that can

1. Reduce the negative impact of Rahu by controlling it
2. Make Saturn give neutral results(instead of negative) during Sade Sati, Dhaiya, Mahadasha
3. Give power to Ketu to work towards spirituality, bring unseen things into this world (through science, engineering, mathematics, etc.)

Now, coming to the 8th House

8th House is linked to

• Occult, Astrology, Research
• Life Post Marriage and In-laws
• One-Time gains in life
• Inheritance and other people’s money
• Sudden events like accidents, surgeries and death

As per Kalpurush kundali, 8th House is the Zodiac of Scorpio – ruled by the planet Mars.

So, when Jupiter is placed in the 8th House, we can see the following observations

• The individual will not say anything till they have thought things through. Owing to this, they are perceived as erudite/go to person for getting feedback on topics which are of high importance (like relationship, finances, job switch, education, etc.)
• The individual will pursue research (subject to supportive Zodiac and Mahadasha). Even if they do not pursue research – they will have a bent of mind to go to the depth of things to better their understanding
• They will be good in money linked decisions especially investing as Jupiter aspects 12th & 2nd House. This also shows the individual will believe in charity (to help social causes)
• As Jupiter aspects the 4th House, the individual will very likely buy a house/land and other fixed assets post marriage despite they having money to do the same before marriage

Hope this gives an idea about the placement

Kindly note – the zodiac linked to the 8th House, placement of 8th house lord, mahadasha and aspects on the 8th House will aid in improving or diminishing the observations shared above.
