Eight

8

The number 8 stands in symbolism for the planet Saturn. This number influences all persons born on the 8th, 17th or 26thin any month, but still more so if their birthday comes between the 21st  December and the 26th January, which period is called the House of Saturn (positive) , and from 26th January to February 19th-26th, the period called the House of Saturn (Negative).

You  are invariably much misunderstood in your life, and perhaps for this reason you feel intensely lonely at heart.

You have very deep and intense nature, great strength of individuality; you generally play some important role on life's stage, but usually one which is fatalistic, or as the instrument of fate for others.

If at all religious you go to extremes and are fanatics in your zeal. In any cause you take up, you attempt to carry it through in spite of all argument or opposition, and in doing so you generally make bitter and relentless enemies.

You often appear cold and undemonstrative, though in reality you  have warm hearts towards the oppressed of all classes; but you hide their feelings and allow people to think just what they please.

These number 8 people are either great  successes or great failures; there appears to be no happy medium in their case.

If ambitious, you generally aim for public life or government responsibility of some kind, and may  hold very high positions involving great sacrifice on you part.

It is not, however, from a worldly standpoint, a fortunate number to be born under, and such persons often are called on to face the very great sorrows, losses, and humiliations.  

The'' lucky'' colors for you  are all shades of dark grey, black, dark blue and purple. If  you were to dress in light colors you would look awkward, and as if there were something wrong with you..

The number 8 being a Saturn number, Saturday is therefore your most important day, but on the account of the number 4 having influence on a Sunday and in a secondary way on a Monday your most important days.

you are suggested to carry out your plans and aims on all days that fall under your ''own number,'' such as the 8th, 17th or 26thin any month, but more especially so when these dates fall in the '' period of the 8,'' i.e., from the 21st December to January 20th-27th, and from the date to February 19th-26th; also if these dates fall on a Saturday , Sunday or Monday, or your interchangeable number, which is 4, such as the 4th, 13th, 22nd,or 31st.

Your ''lucky'' stones are the amethyst and the dark toned sapphire, also the black pearl or the black diamond and if possible you  should wear one in yur middle fingre.

The number 8 is a difficult number to explain. It represents two worlds, the material and the spiritual. It is in fact, if one regards it, like two circles just touching together.

It is composed of two equal numbers; 4 and 4.

From the earliest ages it has been associated with the symbol of an irrevocable Fate, both in connection with the lives of individuals or nations. In Astrology it stands for Saturn, which is also called the Planet of Fate.

One side of nature of this number represents upheaval, revolution, anarchy, waywardness and eccentricities of all kinds. The other side represents philosophic thought, a strong learning towards occult studies, religious devotion, concentration of purpose, Zeal for any cause espoused, and fatalistic outlook coloring all actions.

You also feel that you are distinct and different from your fellows. At heart you are lonely; you are misunderstood, and you seldom reap the reward for the good you may do while you are living. After you death might be extolled, your works will be praised, and lasting tributes offered to your memory.
