While Capricorns are hard workers and Virgos are great with a budget, you need to venture a little further than sun signs to find out which zodiac members are destined to be rich. Astrologers analyze the luckiest and financially most experienced placements in the birth chart to find out who has dollar signs in their future.
In astrology, a placement in the birth chart refers to the position of a planet or celestial body within one of the twelve houses or signs of the zodiac at the time of your birth, explains Letao Wang, astrologer and spiritual counselor. “Understanding a placement helps decode the subtle influences that celestial bodies exert on an individual’s life path and character traits,” he tells Bustle.
If you have certain planets in certain positions, it can mean that money will come easily to you through promotions and raises, but it can also mean that money seems to fall into your lap without much effort, perhaps by winning the lottery, rubbing elbows with wealthy friends, or having wealthy parents.
As Wang says, “This underscores astrology’s belief that while certain placements may pave the way to wealth, determination, hard work, and leveraging other favorable aspects in someone’s chart are equally important.”
With that in mind, here are the top three placements in birth charts often found in the birth charts of the wealthiest people and what they mean.
Jupiter in the 2nd House
Check your birth chart and see which planet is in your 2nd house. If it’s Jupiter, you’re in luck. Jupiter is known as the planet of expansion and good fortune, and since the 2nd house represents finances and possessions, this placement suggests a natural talent for attracting wealth your way, says Wang.
“Jupiter’s presence here expands opportunities for financial gain through various means,” he adds, which usually indicates that you’re often rewarded for your efforts at work through raises, promotions, etc.—hard work never goes unrewarded.
Jupiter in the 8th House
“Similarly, when Jupiter is in the 8th house, which is traditionally associated with transformation, resource sharing, and regeneration, it indicates potential wealth through partnerships, inheritances, or investments,” Wang explains.
If you have this placement, it may mean you were born with money or that wealth will come your way without much effort, possibly by winning the lottery, getting lucky with a random investment, or receiving money from family.
“This placement often suggests a beneficial outcome from joint ventures or financial strategies involving third-party resources,” he says, so marrying into wealth counts too.
Jupiter forming a trine or sextile with the ruler of the 2nd or 8th houses
To really get into the nitty-gritty of birth chart placements, consider this. “The ruler of the 2nd house forming a trine (120° aspect) or a sextile (60° aspect) with Jupiter is another auspicious indication of wealth,” Wang says. “These harmonious aspects facilitate the flow of good luck and amplify the potential for financial prosperity.”
Need a mental picture of what this would look like on your chart? “For example, if you have Aries rising, then the 2nd house would be in Taurus, making Venus the ruler of your 2nd house,” Wang says. “Even if you don’t have Jupiter in the 2nd house, if your natal Venus is in trine/sextile with your natal Jupiter, that’s also a great indication of wealth.”
In non-astrological terms, this means you’re as business-savvy as they come. You know a lot when you see one and you’re always ready to take on new challenges at work to constantly move forward and earn more.
“Finally, as Jupiter is the traditional ruler of Sagittarius and Pisces, and is exalted in Cancer, having your natal Jupiter in these three zodiac signs, plus the above-mentioned house placement, would further strengthen the possibility of great wealth,” Wang says. If that’s the case, get ready to shop until you drop, travel abroad, and live a life of luxury.
