I saw the other thread you started, where you say you want to get further into astrology?
If you are serious about it, you'll be needing to purchase your "tools".. Buy some core books.

We have a thread in the LL forum called
# Astrology for Beginners.
"Best books for mastering astrology!"

QUOTING from pages 200, 201

When the ruler of the Second House is in the Ninth,
the individual's sense of self-worth is intimately related to 'what he/she believes.'
Religion and philosophy
will play an important role in determining the direction of personal development,
especially the establishment of personal values.

eg If the MOON were the ruler of the Second (Cancer on the cusp),
the orientation to self-worth and money in general would be connected to how deeply one was influenced by the family.
. .
If the MOON were in Aquarius in the Ninth House
and square to Saturn in Scorpio,
it would be extremely challenging for the individual in question to develop his/her own 'set of beliefs' relative to Second house affairs.
The tendency would be to believe one's self-worth was in accord with one's family's opinion-- ,,,
Another implication of the presence of the ruler of the Second in the Ninth
is that one could use one's talents and resources through the other facets of life connected to the Ninth:
foreign travel, publishing, and teaching,
to cite a few examples.
