A few years ago, a client came to me frustrated. She’d launched her business with passion, done everything “by the book,” and still felt like she was hitting a wall financially. Her sales were up one month, down the next — no pattern, no predictability. When we looked at her chart, the answer was sitting quietly in her second house: Uranus. Sudden changes, unpredictable income, flashes of brilliance… and chaos. Once she understood that, she stopped fighting it and started building a business model that embraced flexibility.

That’s the kind of insight astrology can offer — not just predictions, but patterns that explain why we do things the way we do, especially when it comes to money.

In astrology, the second house is all about your values, income, and relationship with money, and the planets that land there can offer surprising insight into how you manage finances, especially in business

Let’s break down what each planet might bring when it shows up in your second house — and how it could affect your business life:

• Money can be tied to deep transformation — think loss, rebirth, and power struggles.

• You may go through intense financial ups and downs.

• But with Pluto’s influence, you also have the strength to rebuild, evolve, and rise stronger.

Transformation, Not Limitation

Yes — Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto in the second house can bring challenges. But they also invite you to transform your relationship with money:

• Uranus teaches innovation through instability

When you understand these planetary energies, you’re better equipped to navigate financial ups and downs with resilience, insight, and creativity.
