Okay, your twenties are especially hard for 8 day people because Saturn rules the number 8, and you have the Saturnian Return happening at about age 28, and the effects are felt sooner than that. Saturn is the planet of limitations, which 8's have trouble accepting. 8's (especially with that 1 life lesson) are all about meeting and exceeding deadlines, challenges, competition. They love to make things happen and tend to be very very busy.
The consequences of all this can be really bad eating habits like fast foods, reliance on drugs, a tendency to anger and impatience, and it tends to add up. Meditation, quiet times, and physical exericse that promotes a state of oneness, are very necessary for them to get control of their minds, which tend to run wild with their inner dialogues.
Since you have 3 as a challenge, the desire to take on everything is enhanced. Not only do you have a thirst for excellence, you also have lots of talents to choose from: writing, art, music, an appreciation for the law, just about any hobby... the list goes on and on.
8's demand justice in all situations and get really angry when injustive is perceived. They tend to forget that most everyone is acting from their own subjective reality, and doing what they think is most appropriate at the time. They tend to cast other people's actions in a very negative light, and this causes a LOT of unhappiness for them, especially if they tend to dwell on past insults. Prizing and adhering faithfully to peace, love, allowance, acceptance and tranquility above all forms of drama is essential for their good health.
You have a lot of personal magnetism and can easily draw people and situations to you just by making clear wishes and communicating your needs clearly to your friends. Your best protection is keeping to values of integrity and doing things just because you wish to do them, genuinely, not because you are expecting favors in return. In fact, don't expect favors in return, you'll always do more for others than they will do for you.
