February 8 Birthday Astrology

Friends play a special role in the lives of February 8 natives. But for friendships to work, they need to trust the other person and the relationship. Romance may not deliver all they expected. Later, when they have experienced pain and broken hearts, they are likely to be rewarded with the love they've been looking for.

February 8 people may be unhappy with the way they were raised. As adults, this can cause separateness from the rest of the family or a desire to be estranged. There may not be a strong emotional impetus for February 8 individuals to become parents, at least until after they have made peace with their past.

February 8 natives are centered in their own time, so whatever health influences are in the public consciousness are likely to attract their interest. They are creatures of extremes. They may take pills for everything that ails them, then turn around and express disdain for all but the most pure and natural lifestyle.

February 8 natives often have difficulty settling on a career. Because their interests are generally philosophical, it may be hard for them to find a twentieth-century equivalent. Money has a great significance for February 8 men and women, who appreciate the status it bestows upon them.

People born on February 8 are often confused about their life-goals, because they know when they choose one road they give up exploration of another. The freedom these people seek doesn't exist -- and they know that. But it doesn't keep them from trying to force their will upon an uncaring universe.
