However, their dedication and accompanying responsibilities often bring problems. For example, being forced to leave home or work—circumstances beyond their control—makes them feel guilty and sad for leaving loved ones. Objectivity and self-preservation could prevent this, but they rarely manage it. Yet, after years of disappointment, they may learn not to over-give (hopefully without dampening their generosity).
Those born on this day have abundant energy but sometimes misuse it. They pursue plans that clearly seem doomed. Especially in love and sex, they tend to enter destructive relationships, taking years to escape.
They are unsatisfied with “normal” friends, seeking the most exciting people and those demanding their full attention. However, they slowly realize their efforts are never enough and rewards are scarce. In this regard, they are prone to addiction. For them, only degeneration distracts from their predicaments: fear, anxiety, and identity issues.
More cultivated individuals born on December 8th channel energy into work. Similarly, impulsive or wild types can direct energy productively, building stable, socially acceptable lives. Such people are enviable—“having their cake and eating it too.” But maintaining this balance requires constant caution.
Thus, cultivating prudence and awareness is crucial. If lucky enough to early find someone worthy of their devotion, they will be happy. But they must always understand: friends, lovers, and colleagues rarely reciprocate equal attention. Hence, in relationships, they need realistic expectations and objectivity to protect themselves from harm.
