Original visionary
Although you are charming and friendly, the urge for action and personal accomplishment revealed by your birthday suggests that you are a strong-willed and ambitious individual. Charismatic and determined, you possess intuitive leadership and the ability to mix business with pleasure. With a quick grasp of a situation, you prefer to be honest and straightforward. Enterprising and success-oriented, you have the ability to have fortunate ideas and to share them with others, and this is a major key to your success.
With the added influence of your decanate ruler, Aquarius, you can be inventive and productive and are often a good psychologist. Broad-minded in your approach, you have excellent skills for dealing with people, and you usually value freedom. Although independent, you enjoy exercising your natural diplomatic ability to work cooperatively with others as part of a team. There are times, however, when you are in danger of being too bossy or dictatorial, especially with people who fail to reach your high expectations.
Your active imagination and appreciation of the arts may possibly find expression through writing, music, painting, or drama as well as through a desire to surround yourself with beauty, style, and luxury. However, you may have to be careful that too great a love of the good life does not cause you to overindulge or place too much emphasis on material achievement.

From this time you may also have more connection with foreign people and places. From the age of seventy-five, when your progressed Sun enters Capricorn, you begin to take your duties and practical considerations more seriously.

In many respects those born on this day are defined by the idealism of their desire to reach beyond the bounds of existing circumstances or knowledge and attain an elevated state. The visions that inspire them are often so ambitious that others may regard them as unfeasible and their originators as eccentrics at best, and as crackpots at worst. But even those who serious- ly doubt their motives or abilities will often succumb to sneaking feelings of admiration for their optimism and enthusiasm. Despite the mockery or even down- right hostility that October 8 people often seem to en- gender, they typically remain true to their dreams, not least because these are intellectually sharp and logical types who have thought through their beliefs carefully and can envisage no potential bar to their progress save the limitations of the imaginations of others. Those born on this day are multitalented individuals, whose ingenuity, originality and progressive inclinations be- stow on them the potential to make their marks in such varied professional spheres as commercial entre- preneurship, the financial world, technical and scien- tific pursuits, and sporting and artistic ventures.
Despite their great charm, the combination of their innate perfectionism and unceasing compulsion to attain their soaring visions may cause those born on this day to be somewhat demanding and remote with regard to their personal relationships, not only in their intellectual pursuits, but also when searching for a romantic idyll. Their ideal soul mate may prove elu- sive, with the result that October 8 people—and even more so if they are men—may find it hard to commit themselves to a potential life partner.
