The Hidden Houses: 6, 8 & 12
Rivals, secrets, expense and release, without the fear
The 6th, 8th and 12th are the houses beginners are warned about and forums argue over. This chapter takes each one properly: service and competition, research and sudden change, expense, retreat and foreign lands. Then it follows their lords, shows why Vipareeta yoga falls out of what you already know, and retires the myth that studying astrology 'activates' your 8th house.
