The South Node in the eighth house shows accumulated experience of crises, other people's money, inheritance, sexuality, secrets, psychic forces, danger, loss and deep transformations. Sources on Ketu in the eighth house mention obstacles in career, chronic or unclear states, psychic abilities, loss of inheritance, scandalous situations and problems through sensual pleasures, but also practicality, intuition and interest in mysticism under better conditions.
This placement may give an inborn ability to see what is hidden. The person senses crisis, lies, dependence, secret motives, pain, danger and psychological undercurrents. They may be good at therapy, investigation, crisis help, medicine, esotericism, finances and inheritance themes. But depth is familiar and can pull them in.
