Planets in signs and houses
Venus in the 8th House
Tropical zodiac, Western astrology
Venus in the 8th house makes your love deep, intense and in need of true bonding. Surface relationships do not satisfy you, and you place great weight on trust, emotional and physical, and on money shared with others. You may receive financial support from a partner or family. Watch for jealousy or a wish to control when you feel insecure. Speaking openly about your fears makes your bond deeper and safer without squeezing the other person.
