October 8 VS Libra, 8, Original visionary
Anyone choosing to live outside the accepted ‘norm’ could be called eccentric (at best) and outright crazy (at worst), but you’re not bothered. Being an outlier probably isn’t a choice for you, but just how it is and how you are. You don’t much care if others find your dreams and ideas unrealistic because nobody ever broke the mould by following the herd. The truth is that, however fantastical your goals might appear to be, you have a sharp mind and the drive to power through the strongest of objections. If you’re not an entrepreneur, you could find yourself pushing the boundaries of areas of research or financial investment. And so, what if the best idea you ever had came through in a dream? The German chemist Friedrich Kekulé discovered the structure of benzene as the result of a dream and three of his students went on to win Nobel Prizes! You’re immune to the mockery of the ideas you believe in, which is likely to gain you admiration from those working alongside you, whatever your field. But in matters of the heart, it’s a different story. You can come across as remote and sometimes critical when potential partners fall short of your ideals; temper this so that when you do find a good partner you are more able to commit.
The individual born today is the prototypical example of the "iron fist in the velvet glove." Your knack for getting power and diplomacy to work together makes you a shrewd negotiator and a formidable adversary. Although outwardly courteous and conciliatory, you can be an unyielding force when you believe you are in the right (which is most of the time). Your personal ambition and agenda are only part of the story. As a passionate believer in justice and equity, you're willing to fight for your own interests and those of anyone who is not getting a fair shake.
The competitive side of an October 8th birth date is tempered by an uncanny ability to see all sides of an issue. You have what it takes to succeed in virtually any career field, and you are willing to work as hard as necessary to gain the recognition and material success you crave. In business, you would make an exceptional executive because you're a skillful organizer who is equally popular with superiors, co-workers, and clients.
In an intimate union, you're capable of total loyalty and devotion to the right person. Although part of you longs to be loved, there is another portion of your workaholic nature that may prefer the solitary life. In a love union, control could become an issue. You like being in charge and won't put up with a lover who wants to play boss.
Two of Wands:Nobody would call the successful merchant depicted on this card an oddball. He is standing, symbolically, on higher ground looking into the far distance. A combination of hard work and the courage of his convictions have brought him to this place. Like you, he didn’t concern himself with the opinions of the crowd but pushed through their mockery to realise his vision.
