As you mature, you will grow in success and financial reward. You will find yourself deepening your commitment to your work. You will find it easier to overcome difficulties that manifest in your path. Your capacity to use power will grow; you will be recognized as a pillar of influence and dependability within your community. You will have to be strong and self-disciplined to avoid sudden painful material losses. Beware of ego-inflation, the surest symptom of an imminent fall.

The 8 Maturity Number requires a certain degree of detachment from material success; otherwise it will rule your personality and make money an obsession. Detachment allows you to remain focused on the higher values of mankind. One of your important motivations should be a desire to build, create, or market in order to enjoy the game of business.

Your wisdom and sheer common sense are recognized by many and will attract important positions. It is possible that you will be given responsibility for the care and management of another person's property. You may also be asked to guide large institutions.

If you already have several 8s in your chart, especially in the core numbers, you will have to guard against selfishness, accumulation for the sake of status, and greed. If you have few 8s in your chart, or none at all, your opportunity to achieve the success and financial independence is greatly increased.
