What the second decan of Aries is read as
The second decan of Aries is read as carrying a touch of Leo and the Sun. The nerve is the same, but it wants an audience. These Aries tend to lead by being seen to try, to fall hard for anyone who cheers them on, and to take a slight personally for longer than they admit.
What the number 8 adds
Numerology reads a birthday that comes to 8 as the mark of an organiser. It tends to mean a head for how things run, a wish to be in charge of your own work, and a respect for people who keep their word.
