In this workshop, Martin Sebastian Moritz digs deep into the many facets of the 8th house and explains how they can affect our everyday life. The deeper one digs, the more complex this house becomes, and ancient and modern approaches complement each other rather than contradict themselves. In the workshop, we will shed light on placements in the 8th house and rulership combinations, as well as the rule of the 8th house in Solar return and transits. We will be working with many biographical examples of stories from the abyss of the 8th house. Stories of crisis, entanglements, but also of enormous personal growth, after all this also the place in the chart, where we find our very own source of inner resilience.
