I have Pisces on my 8th house cusp. And I'm not necessarily attracted to Pisces in regards to sex. Also I have a friend who has Capricorn on the 8th house cusp. And I read that people with this placement are usually sexually attracted to older people. But that's not the case for her.

I think it depends on what's in your 8th house.

I have a Libra DC and really like a blend of Libra/Scorpio in people, but I'm also very 8th house heavy.

Don't you have Venus in your 8th house as well, CoV? c:

So you don’t like people unless they have Libra or Scorpio in their chart? What if your 8th house is empty though? Yes I do have Venus in the 8th house.

It’s just odd to me I know two people with Cap on the 8th and 7th house cusp. One is my friend and she’s not attracted to Capricorns. And another is a guy I’m friends with. I don’t have Capricorn placements just Moon parallel Saturn, Venus square Saturn, Mercury trine Saturn and Saturn trine Ascendant. And I guess he supposedly likes me. But I’m just going to flat out ask him if he prefers older women it’s just irritating.

It’s more than that: 8th house cusp.

8th house attraction or to activate the 8th has more to do with planets in the said house (making aspects); aspects to ruler and/or 8th house planets. Additionally, planets conjunct the 8th house cusp very, very tightly are big activators.

My 8th house cusp is in Leo. I don’t go for Leo’s at all.

I have an Capricorn on the 8th house and I actually am attracted to Capricorn placements, especially Capricorn mars. But typically the people I’m attracted to have Sagittarius placements (big 3) which lines up with my descendant.

Yeah but what if the person doesn't have any planets in their 8th house? And if both the 7th and 8th house are in Capricorn? I'm not an old woman. So I don't get why this person would be attracted to me in any regard. I'm going to flat out ask them if they prefer older women.

lmao no, I like most people - not just those. But Libra/Scorpio are the types I wanna get deep/close with. It may not be the signs so much as the 'type'. I have liked Gemini types that have strong Scorpio energy as well- the Sun sign is soooooooo limiting in how it describes someone (unless they have a huge same-sign stellium involving their Sun, but you know).

It also would hugely depend on the Venus/Mars, ruler of the DC, etc. Even the 5th house, if it's stronger! It also depends on the type of 'like' you mean. 8th house usually just means those you want to share intimacy with (not just sex).

Those are a lot of strong Saturn aspects- I would readily say you have strong Cap energy. Especially with trine the ascendant and square Venus. You could just ask if he likes you, not just 'older women'. Often Cap placements translate to 'I like the type of people who have their **** together', are able to take care of themselves (or maybe someone they can fully take care of, but that's not usually healthy).

You have a number of strong Saturn aspects. Also look to how their Saturn is aspected in their own chart.

sorry to hear that

i prefer when the moon squares mine from capricorn rather than cancer, having it on my mars is alright over my midheaven i think, but it's alright there too

it isn't bad for me typically having it there

what's going on?

I have Cap on the eighth house cusp with Uranus and Neptune there. I'm not necessarily attracted to Capricorns, but there needs to be a mature side to them.

And BTW those Saturn aspects you have... I mean that's pretty Saturn laden in my opinion.

I don't think its the literal sign tbh

Leo,Scorpio,Aries on 8th house cusp or Mars,Sun,Pluto there barring aspects etc.You like to dominate sexually. Its typically you who takes the reins & "leads" the partner

Pisces,Sag,Libra,Taurus on 8th house cusp or Jupiter ,Neptune,Venus there barring aspects etc.You compromise a lot on your needs sexually.

Many times with Pisces/Libra involved, you have trouble differentiating your needs from those of the mate /partner . Sex also tends to not live up to romantic ideals.

Jupiter/Venus/Neptune ruled 8th house people are typically not even aware of their preferences -which makes it easy for them to be dominated or attract a more assertive partner who will "take charge" sexually.

So they end up "adjusting" themselves according to what the partner wants etc. This especially with Pisces or Neptune in 8th.

Gemini,Aquarius on the cusp of the 8th or Uranus there tend to like things to remain "chummy chummy". Heavy serious stuff is a turnoff and intimidating for them. Keep it playful and light.

Gemini likes dirty talk and Aqua doesn't mind everything and anything that doesn't always have to include penetration.

And since they(Uranus) can blow hot/cold, there are some spontaneous moments where they will seem "distant" in bed or may even be distant physically; postponing intimacy with you or unable to be consistent.

Cap,Can,Virgo or Mercury,Moon,Saturn on the cusp of 8th are nervous and anxious sexually. Sex can feel very intimidating to the inexperienced and there should be a lot of emphasis made on getting these people to relax.

Often celibacy or thinking sex as "dirty" is a cover up to mask the feelings of inadequacy or frustration around it as its never something that they feel they can enjoy. But can certainly feel like a "chore".

With the right partner or with some effort made in relaxing and learning to enjoy etc. The irony is that the above listed people can be proficient when they get the hang of things. So much so that they become "porn stars" in bed.This especially Cap and Virgo.

Cancer on the cusp of the 8th needs commitment above all else.They are eager to get intimate with you but not really sexually.Well atleast that's not until emotional bonds have been properly established.

Like Aqua/Uranus in 8th, watch out for Mood swings as they can be moody. One minute hot and then the next aloot and disengaged. This especially if Moon is in Gemini,Aqua or Cap.

I have Uranus in Sag in 8th. I enjoy masturbating and porn more than I do actual sex with another person. And that could be the Jupiter rulership of Sag with its "open endedness" as well as Neptune being parallel to my Uranus.

I never really know what I want in bed and sex can be an all round confusing experience for me many times. And since I don't pursue it aggressively(Mars in Libra).I get to attract partners who are quite domineering(Mars conjuncts the Dsc)-which complicates matters for me as they don't please me.

Add to that Uranus in 8th and I can go without physical contact with another for a long time. I do blow "hot /cold" as being intimate with someone is somewhat a scary thing for me. I can just "drop off" or lose the "feeling" when things get too serious etc.

All in all, I am a mess sexually. I prefer to just go solo and not be under duress to "please" another etc. And that is how I enjoy sex tbh: Through self pleasure. I don't think another person can please me.But Mars in Libra,Aqua ,Sag and Cap do try to (this especially Cap who tries very hard)

I have Leo on my 8th house cusp. I attract Leos. The female Leos make wonderful friends. The guys are decent friends, but we don't mesh well in a relationship. They tend to be very controlling, which I don't like.

I would say no, in general, in terms of all the things in the chart that show attraction like one's Venus sign, which shows that to which we are attracted and is a big marker.

I have capricorn in my 7th house and on the cusp on the 8th house and I'm not at all attracted to capricorn sun signs. I've also never been attracted to men significantly older than me, on the contrary, probably just the opposite. HOWEVER, I am already strongly capricornian with sun, mercury and venus in capricorn in the 7th house AND saturn in the 1st. But I am definitley attracted to people with saturnian signatures, especially venus or ascendant in capricorn. And to be deeply affected, saturn, the ruler of my 7th and 8th house needs to be strongly aspected. Otherwise, you can be the most gorgeous man on earth, I won't react to you. But, just because my saturn is aspected isnt a sure thing, I will be attracted to you. For that you'll also need to have a mix of neptune, mercury pluto and uranus signature. My mars is conjunct neptune and if there is one sure thing in the men, I'm attracted to, they always are strongly neptunian. Also, my pluto is tightly square my DC and scorpio covers most of my 5th house. And finally, while capricorn is on the cusp of my 8th house, most of my 8th house is in aquarius and also my Uranus is in 5th house. The blowing hot and cold and switching off quickly/unpredictability someone mentioned is spot on for me. So it's a complex story what gets my buttons pushed.

One thing is definitely true, I'm very, very, very serious when I'm deeply attracted to someone or when it comes to sex. Also, I think in an sassastrology article it was mentioned that of course 8th house is also what you attract and I do attract people that are strongly saturnian. But of course that might also be in part my other strong capricorn placements. Problem is, often they are too saturnian for me, if they don't have the mix I mentioned above and are too heavily capricornian, I'm actually turned off/bored.

The Moon was in Scropio so it was squaring my Moon. I was just really irritated all day yesterday. I'm better today though now that it's in Sagittarius. I just don't do well when the Moon is in water signs.

There are so many manifestations to aspects/planets and signs😁

Saturn could also denote emotional maturity; stability, traditional; status; classic beauty; kinky.........the list goes on

i only mind the **** they bring up sometimes other times i dont so i guess when i think about it i dont care that much one way or another

if i ever say i hate something i only mean right that second overall i wont necessarily mind and theres usually something thats decent enough anyway

im not too particular about **** usually and by that i mean the past couple days have been decent and now i'm just thinking well how many times has it been bad in comparison to other days

but im high so im probably overthinking it and it doesnt matter anyway
