~first~ and ~second~, the 3 and the 8 carry vastly different traits which are compatible in some areas but not in others. ~first~ (the 3) brings a creative, inspiring, uplifting and somewhat scattered energy. ~second~ (the 8) is more ambitious, goal-oriented and focused. Although you take differing approaches, you are both energetic and capable of turning dreams into reality. Quite often, this combination is seen between business partners or long-time friends who start a business together. In that environment, ~first~ would be the initial creative source, while ~second~ would be the visionary. Together, you could do very well.

You are both good communicators. ~first~ can clarify an issue with a sense of humor and pinpoint precision and ~second~ takes a more practical approach by taking bold, decisive action. This part of your chart suggests you complement each other in many ways and are quite compatible. But, just as in any other combination, there are areas where challenges may arise. 

~second~ is ambitious, practical, dedicated to accomplishing their goal, and capable of sustained effort for a long period of time. ~first~ also has the energy and drive needed to make things happen but tends to drop a project when it is no longer interesting or when another project seems more important. This could irritate ~second~, who feels that anything less than total commitment to a set goal is unacceptable. ~first~, on the other hand, will sometimes feel that ~second~'s priorities are too connected to their own needs and expectations. Where ~second~ is focused and demanding, ~first~ is more easy-going. ~second~ believes the purpose for setting a goal is to overcome the obstacles one is bound to encounter. ~first~ feels comfortable trying something new (or scrapping the project) if the first or second attempt does not seem to be working. 

Often, the 3 and the 8 get along quite well. In the end, the issue comes down to respect. You likely have such different views about what is important in life, you will need to accept each other's needs and expectations.
