Mars, Jupiter and Ketu in the 2nd house: the reading
Jupiter is well placed in the 2nd house and Mars and Ketu are strained there, so Jupiter leads the trio here. Inside the trio, Mars and Jupiter do best here: Mars and Jupiter in the house of wealth give money through property, law, defence, medicine or religious institutions, and speech that is forceful and principled. Mars and Ketu are the pair to watch: Mars and Ketu in the 2nd house give sharp, sudden speech, money from surgery, engineering, occult or technical work, and a family the native keeps at arm's length.
When it works
- Wealth from property and principled work
- A proud, protective family
- Income from precise technical or healing skill
- Independence from family money
What needs care
- Preaching in the family
- Money spent in righteous excess
- Abrupt losses and cutting speech
- Facial injuries and dental trouble
