My sun is in the 8th house, and I definitely fit into the "didn't have a Dad" pattern. My mother left my biological father and cut all ties while she was pregant with me. He never tried to contact me, or have anything to do with me, even though he paid child support for 18 years. And I was his only child. So he was never "physically" there for me. My stepfather, who was the only father I ever had, wasn't very loving or affectionate, was distant. Wasn't ever there "emotionally" for me. There was also a certain amount of fear on my part, because he was a very strict disciplinarian. Nothing I did was ever good enough. So that pretty much set up my patterns with men. My biological father didn't want me, didn't care to meet me or have any kind of relationship with me. And with my step-father, nothing I did was good enough, I couldn't ever get it right enough for him. So those perceptions have followed me through my life. I feel like I give over 100% to others, that I love as much as I'm capable, but it's never returned. No one ever gives it back to me. I have to "prove" that I am good enough for their love. It's taken many years to finally realize that I don't need their approval. That I am good enough, just the way I am. That I love myself just the way I am. IP: Logged |

This is true for me. I have Pisces sun in 8th house and I haven't seen my dad for 5 years now. We had a huge falling out and it was a big loss for me because I was always his little girl growing up. This had a huge impact on my life and how I am with other men in my life. IP: Logged |

My Sun is in the 8th. My parents divorced when I was 2, and, although I saw my dad during the summers and we're in touch, I think it counts. He started a new family--that's very different than if I'd grown up with both parents.IP: Logged |
