Situation
Why Does Money Come and Then Disappear?
A full week, an empty week. Second, eighth, eleventh, twelfth — weather, not a bank forecast.

Money that arrives as weather and leaves as weather is one of the oldest human complaints. Astrology is often asked to explain it as a placement. Sometimes the placement is interesting. Sometimes the cupboard had no door.
What the sky is often doing
Within Jyotish, the second house is what is kept — speech, food, movable resource, the family store. The eighth is other people's money, inheritance, the sudden. The eleventh is gains. The twelfth is expenditure, leak, the foreign bill. Rahu in a money house is often read as appetite around keeping; Jupiter as expansion that can inflate a lifestyle as fast as an income. Traditional notes are weather reports. They are not a cash-flow statement, and they will not tell a bank what to do.
A leak is not always a twelfth house. Sometimes it is a habit with a story attached.
CapSage will not prescribe a stone, a mantra, or a Tuesday for wealth. Evidence does not demonstrate that a remedy guarantees money. This is not financial advice. If the problem is debt, a counsellor and a budget are more honest than a bhava. If the problem is the feeling that resource cannot be trusted to stay, count what actually came and went before you ask the chart to be a vault. Some questions belong to accountants, not to grahas. The response on this shelf is when not to ask astrology at all.
