In my experience, the 8th house is of course a very private house that values sovereignty highly. But why is this? 8th house people seem to start in life more than others by inheriting, subconsciously*, t*he family dynamics and emotional complexes. This happens to everyone, obviously, but the 8th house's relationship to this fact is different somehow. Inheritance plays a large role in this house and it very much is psychic (in a literal psyche sense) contents from the family and immediate circle at the beginning of life. 8th house people are batteries that become filled with both negative and positive shadow aspects of their environment. The first "rebirth" is the flushing out of foreign influence, IMO. Its very much a house of merging, and this usually is automatic and to the detriment of the native. In other words, 8th house people need sovereignty so deeply becauee they can't help but automatically take on hidden and charged unconscious content. A big focus is on taking the first shadow shit of their life.

This is my working concept on this aspect of the 8th house, as someone with Sun + Moon and Uranus in this placement. Thoughts?

Sucking cock for comedy's sake. "Im doin it for my Xitta" he says. Literally one billion cocks. One time my ex didn't want to do anal so then I cried as best as I could and told her I repressed my bisexuality because I was bullied for it in highschool (BIG LIE) and needed to pretend she was a twink. I begged her to be my little Silly Billy for one night - she agreed out of the kindness of her heart. Long story short I walked to the liquor store alone that night knowing that suicide is not transcendence even of my own life. I like buying PBR there every day not just because I'm an alcoholic but because the 50 year old Indian guy who works there calls me brother and thinks I'm way cooler than I really am.

How has your vision actually played a part in your life? Jung explicitly states that, the images and narratives that come from the unconscious, although seemingly aesthetic or rationalized into insight - actually contain things that want to be or will be actualized.

I have experienced this certainly, by their nature intuitions come seperate from our egoic willing (even if we can direct our perception) and have some ontological reality of their own.

What I'm meaning to ask is if anyone else has had certain narratives or art that gripped them sufficiently, especially in youth, that proved to have some later reality in their life. Powerful, and private fantasy images that came from outside.

Intoverts in general, although proudly rejecting anything too collective, are they themselves the lowest slaves to something inscrutable and overpowering to them. The I of the introvert is a mystery that most never realize totally eludes them as a fact. This is a good place to point when talking about the reality of opposites I think.

Anyways, any older intuitives have anything to share?

When depression can no longer be felt by the subject, is there a deeper barrier being placed between themselves and the self? The person becomes less depressed, more functional, but less alive. Have any of you seen this?

It is an arresting, a pulling downward, a putting up of walls and taking away of possibility. Masochistic and sadistic desires, destruction of self and others, material and spiritual decay. How do we maintain our bearings? How do we have any reassurance that our soul will be born again, that we won't be entirely taken into the singularity?
