Sun in Aries in the Eighth House

Áries is the first sign of the zodiac, the sign that symbolizes new beginnings. It connotes quick changes and sudden forks in the road. With your Sun Sign in Aries, your life is marked by arriving at a certain place and then being turned in a new direction. Certainly, one can say your life is adventurous!

As an individual with your Sun in Aries, you gravitate toward the center of action. You are audacious and intent on getting your own way. Since your nature is to express power, you treat opposition as an annoyance to be brushed out of the way. You are a natural leader with your Sun in Aries, who exudes self-confidence. From an early age you feel you are headed for success. Happily, you are also generous about helping others in a crisis. You are an openhearted friend who shares ideas and advice, and likes to pick up the check. You have a quality of assistance. You are not interested in the small or petty. “Go for the best” is your motto. There is nothing faint or half-hearted about a Sun in Aries individual.

Whereas others may be more cautious, having your Sun in Aries, you actually enjoy living on the edge. A touch of recklessness makes you feel alive. The chase is always more thrilling than getting the goal. (As one Aries recently remarked rather insightfully, “Wanting is always better than getting.”) You are willing to take a gamble, follow a dream, set your mind on a goal, and pursue it with irresistible enthusiasm. Your supreme quality of optimism attracts others. Underneath there may lurk insecurity, but no one will ever know about it.

This is not to say you don’t get depressed or moody. But the winter of despair doesn’t last a week with a Sun in Aries. You have an unbreakable optimism. It is true, however, that individual with their Sun in Aries are notorious for taking offense at fancied slights and injuries. Hot tempers and childish tantrums abound, and your threshold of boredom is extremely low. If success is not immediate, you tend to lose interest and go in search of other excitement. As a result, patient, plodding types often get to the head of the class before you do.

Individuals with their Sun in Aries have a well-deserved reputation for not finishing what they have begun. You are very short of patience, and your lack of stick-to-itiveness is your weak spot. Also, you spend your energy in too many different ways. Independence is a keyword. You want to run the whole show. If you can’t, you pull up stakes and look for a situation in which you can show off your style and brilliance. Should you come up against a superior force, you will bend but never break. Your aggressive and combative spirit cannot be broken by anyone—except yourself. One of the pitfalls of having your Sun in Aries is that you’re essentially self-involved. Unless you make an effort to look outward at others and their feelings, you can easily become a spoiled brat.

Having your Sun in Aries, though generally sincere and honest, you will tell a white lie if it seems advantageous. You are not a very adept liar, however; others see right through you. Sometimes you lack tact and diplomacy, but no malice is intended. Sagittarians also lack this quality of tact because they don’t know how to be oblique or roundabout. With you, tactlessness is an impulsive act—a careless expression of your innate force. Too often you speak without thinking and say whatever pops into your mouth, and usually regret your impulsiveness later.

The Inner You with your Sun in Aries

With your Sun in Aries, you like to be in charge – you want to control your own projects and plans and not be under anyone else’s thumb. You have an intense drive to succeed and put a lot of pressure on yourself. Inside, you’re filled with nervous energy and worry about how you’re going to handle everything.

Sun in the 8th House

The Sun in the 8th House suggests that you are engaged with issues of intimacy and privacy and that your identity is linked to these issues. Your tendency will be to be introverted. Because you may feel engaged in matters that should not be publicly observed, you may have difficulty or resistance to expressing yourself or revealing your true identity. You may not be as outgoing as you otherwise might be.

With your Sun in the 8th House, you generally must wrestle with the problem of coming out into the open and dealing with a more public world. At the same time, you are often dealing internally with such private matters as emotional intimacy and security, intimacy in relacionamentos, personal insights and mortality. To the extent that you successfully deal with issues of intimacy, you are likely to develop a proficiency in the art of give and take.

As an individual with your Sun in the 8th House, you are also likely to be engaged in a continual balancing act between the needs of your private self and the demands placed on your public self. In dealing with these issues, you may develop greater control and ability to manage your life and these are important skills. These personal skills are often transferable to your public life. In fact, if the depth, intimacy and insight that you experience internally has given you self-confidence, you may naturally want to be in a position of control and managing others externally. Of course, a drive for external power and control may also be an escape from dealing with intimate, personal issues.

The Sun in the 8th House placement may also suggest a certain degree of dependency, particularly on the resources of others with whom you are intimately involved. Thus, you may face issues of self-sufficiency. These may range from asserting your financial or emotional independence to dealing with the generosity of others.

Inseguranças

Having your Sun in the 8th House, if you are inwardly insecure, your subconscious awareness of your own mortality leads your subconscious self to protect your ego from this awareness, lest your identity (your ego) be destroyed. One manifestation of this internal suppression of awareness is that you suppress your awareness of your dependency on others, especially for emotional security and feelings of intimacy. Consequently, to reinforce your ego and feeling of existence, you feel you must always be in control. Therefore, you focus on gaining and using power, controlling others and enforcing your dominance over others.  As an individual with your Sun in the 8th House, you may be attracted to sexuality. For you, this is primarily an expression of power and control. You are likely to have difficulty feeling and sharing real intimacy because this requires letting go and sharing your authentic self. You may also become obsessed with death and the occult, but this obsession is a psychological totem designed to protect you against your own mortality.

Foco de sua identidade pessoal

With your Sun in the 8th House, your identity is likely to be bound up with your intimate relationships, your capacity for sharing, power and/or sexuality. Your identity may also have a distinction between your persona and who you really are. You may either consciously protect your private identity and life or you may unconsciously possess a dual identity.  As an individual with your Sun in the 8th House, you may feel that you are whoyou are because of your capacity for intimacy and emotional interaction. You may place a great deal of value on caring and sharing or may see yourself as someone whose role is to manage or coordinate others. You may also derive your sense of identity from the power that you control and wield.  If you identify self-worth with power, then you are subject to pride and arrogance if you have power, and to low self-esteem if you lack power. Identity with sexual prowess is your last resort if you are seeking an identity based on power. If nothing else, you can identify yourself as a sexual being.
