The placement of the 8th house in a chart reveals how you handle your finances. And also how you will handle them as a couple if you decide to merge them.
The 8th house synastry is considered the “other person's wealth” or gain. It refers to the partner's income, earnings, and ability to manage finances.
There are two kinds of relationships in this world. Those that produce beneficial results and those with negative consequences.
It is essential to clarify whether the Sun or Moon is being activated in any given comparison.
A person with their Moon in this house may have many deaths to deal with throughout life. Such as childbearing, surgery, and transitions into significant roles.
The eighth house indicates long-term investments, death, taxes, and other burdens.

In synastry, it represents the partner's past. Unfortunately, the eighth house is also a house of endings.
This doesn't bode well for marriage if both partners have a history of creating toxic relationships.
Toxic relationships usually involve deep wounds caused by someone else in the past. Sometimes those wounds are so big that they can never be healed.
To do that, you have to understand where your wounds came from, and how you ended up attracting partners who hurt you over and over again.
What can you learn about compatibility from an 8th house synastry?
Synastry is an excellent technique to learn about your compatibility with others. Just like as mentioned in the moon in 8th house synastry, the 8th house people are more into transformation and want long-term relationships.
Like marriage, business partnerships, and other collaborations.
Managing finances is always tricky in any relationship. But it can be incredibly challenging if you have a different approach to handling money.
The 8th house is also connected to sex and intimacy. This means that two people may be attracted to each other physically.
Still, their differing financial outlooks could create problems in the bedroom.

Of course, some people are lovely with letting their partner take control of everything financially. But for others, this can be a susceptible area.
A person who has the 8th house in their birth chart will likely feel a need to control their finances like Mercury in 8th House.
They might even be quite secretive about their money. They're more likely to worry about money and have a somewhat distrustful attitude towards it at times.
Someone with Saturn or Pluto in the 8th house will likely have a different approach to money than someone with Venus or Jupiter.
How to avoid the biggest problem with 8th house synastries?
First and foremost, the Moon is thought to represent your past. The house it's placed in shows how you will react to that past.
How you interact with the things you've learned and experienced in your life so far.
The eighth house is exciting because it's not a place of power (like the first, second, or seventh houses), nor is it a place of comfort (the fourth, fifth, or sixth houses).
The biggest problem with 8th house synastries is the tendency for one person to play the role of caretaker for the other. This can happen because one person's 8th house is in the other's 1st house, or because one person's 7th house is in the other's 8th house.
If your partner falls into a pattern of taking advantage of your generosity and you're not willing to stop giving, then you should end the relationship. Many people will be glad to take their place.
If you don't like being used, find someone who wants to give you what you need or want, similar to Lilith Synastry.
What motivates people ruled by this house?
People in this house are motivated by financial gain, power, transformation, and control over others. You do not want to cross them because they can be vindictive, have an almost hypnotic influence over you, and be highly manipulative.
They will strip you of everything you have to get their way.
They may fear power or authority figures and may be prone to controlling someone else in a relationship. They can use their sexual energy to manipulate others and become compulsive about sex to gain control over another person.
A person ruled by an 8th house synastry must understand the difference between lust and love. They need to understand that lust is an insatiable appetite for sex while love is an ongoing commitment to intimacy and growth.
It could be difficult for them to form deep loving relationships because they could always be looking for more excitement in a partner than their partners are willing or able to give them. They need to identify a partner willing to help them grow and evolve as people, not one who will allow them to stagnate in arrested development.

The 8th house is all about death, rebirth, and regenerating life
The 8th house rules over inheritance, death, rebirth, and life regeneration. It is tied to the unconscious mind, and all things are hidden. Many people fear death, and this house can bring that fear to the surface.
The 8th house rules over all the karmic debts that we have accumulated throughout our lives. If you have been a good person, you will find that the Universe will reward you with a happy and healthy life in your old age.
If you have been the wrong person, you should expect an unhappy ending.
This house rules over prisons, hospitals, nursing homes, and all organizations dealing with a death, such as funeral homes and crematoriums.
The soul embarks on a new journey into another body to live another life on Earth.
The 8th is also associated with psychic abilities such as clairvoyance and prophecy. It has strong connections to foreign lands and cultures and anything that cannot easily be explained, like psychic phenomena or miracles.
It also rules over abandoned places or people who are outcasts from society.
The 8th house is considered a very mysterious realm that pertains to the unknown aspects of reality. This is where we experience out-of-body experiences, astral projection, and extrasensory awareness.
It's also associated with anything that we fear or don't understand, such as the paranormal or even death in general.
