The second house, the Dhana Bhava of Vedic astrology, governs the wealth and assets you value. As part of the Artha Trikona, the triangle of wealth, it reflects the material possessions you have inherited or earned, along with your bond with family, your understanding of your lineage, and the food and drink available to you. The fifth house, part of the triangle of prosperity, governs romance, intelligence, spirituality, creativity, sports, and the hobbies you enjoy, while also carrying forward the credits and debits of past-life karma.
