Dr.Nikki's Tarot -
The Eights
The Eights are aligned with the Major Arcana
Card of Strength.  This alliance is brought in to
sharp focus with the seriousness and intensity
that Eights bring to the situation of their
individual suit.  This intensity leads toward
permanency.
The Eight, when laid on its side, is the symbol of
infinity.  Standing up, it indicates the processes
of endeavor and connections.  The Eight can
signify a strong artistic association.
Kabalistic Association to Number 8 – Hod,
splendor, form, intelligence.  Hod is on the left
Pillar, which is passive and female in that it
brings the force from the right Pillar into form.  
The three upper Sephiroth form a triangle
pointing upward; the next three, a downward
triangle, which is that of the individuality.  The
third triangle, also pointing downward, is that of
manifestation and personality.  Hod is the sphere
of Mercury – Hermes, the god of science and books,
who works in the mental realm in a scientific manner;
Hod is the scientist in us as Netzach is the artist.
If all four 8s appear in your spread you must allow
the artistic energies an appropriate outlet.
