Moon’s placement in the second house is considered to be a good placement given that the second house rules income, wealth, communication or speech, relations with family, etc. So, Moon is a benefic planet and when placed in the 2nd house, She will give wealth or good income to the native unless She is afflicted by some malefic aspect or conjunction.
The emotional issues of Moon being in the first house will not be as pronounced when Moon is placed in the second house of the ascendant chart. The person will also have a good voice and will easily mesmerize others with their speech. Moon in the second house of the ascendant chart gives the person access to decent wealth and income; there is a good chance that they may also be born into a rich family which will provide them with all sorts of comforts.
In a benefic sign, Moon’s placement here will also cause the native or person to have a large family or be born into one, meaning that they can have a decent number of children or they may be born into a joint family.
Unless afflicted, the person with the Moon in their ascendant chart’s second house would also be well-learned and also respectful to others (this is noticeable in their speech or communication which will be civilized). However, financial fluctuations will nonetheless be there, unless some benefic planet is conjunct with Moon, since Moon itself gives wealth but not very stably.
Note that the aspects of a weak Mercury are NOT counted here. Actually, Mercury is a young planet, so its aspects astrologically do not hold much weigh BUT this does not discount their benefic effects.
If Moon is conjunct with any malefic here except Mars, since Mars is not a malefic for Moon, the wealth-giving effects of Moon will be afflicted here. For example, Saturn conjunct Moon will create Vish dosh, which will cause major depression and issues to the person and his/her speech may be harsh (as Saturn is known for His harshness) or perhaps if Rahu or Ketu is related to this house in any manner, then the person’s relation with family may be affected.
There are no special considerations here; the Moon in the second house will give wealth to the native unless any malefic influence affects its ability to do so.
