I second PixieJane on the near death experience at a young age. I was 11 when I nearly drowned in a pool - as in, had the euphoric feeling, had given up and stopped fighting - right before being pulled out. Then had another near death experience at 19. Since then, I've had night terrors and sleep paralysis and attracted everything from mischievous ghosts and spirits that used to open my locked doors in my haunted 200 year old college dorm to more menacing ones that would growl, slam doors or break things in my old house. I work in a very old hospital as well and interesting things seem to happen to me while I'm there. I pretty much always know when "something else" is in the room - ghost, spirit, whatever it may be. It doesn't scare me, anymore. I acknowledge things/people and move on. I guess I'm so used to it at this point that it's become normal to see/hear things that aren't normal.

I have very vivid dreams, but I have never been able to ascertain any dire meaning from them. But I dream every night. No near death, but Stubborn Virgo mentioned sleep paralysis and I struggled with that for 15 years!!!!

When in the 8th,we want to be seen & acknowledged for our insight into serious matters such as death/ sexual intimacy and may leave a legacy of someone who was very much aor extremely domineering person.

The father(Sun)may have had a profound effect on one. And much of his personality lives through one. The likelihood of the Father dying early and the native having to be strong enough to "take over", is likely i.e " The Lion King" Simba and Mufasa relationship.

Sexual intimacy and even all that is taboo around it can have such a profound awakening on us,that it becomes the definitive experience we base our life off of-whether for good or ill

Sun in 8th live from the heart centre i.e it has to be authentic, real and heartfelt.No secrets,no superficial living, no psychological conditioning etc.it just wont do-this especially with "all head in" Aries Sun & Leo.

Its no wonder the eigth house person makes people very uncomfortable to be around. The native can be the type who wears 8th house "secrets" and "controversial" matters out in the open and can seem "fearless".

There is often something pertinently "dark" about Sun in 8th house.Or it can seem like they go out searching for "dark" matters etc. and if the native also has Pluto there, they may come across to others as "shady".

Julian Assange interestingly enough has Sun in 8th with Moon/Neptune and Jupiter in 12th.

The Moon is in Scorpio and so he is geared towards uncovering secrets and exposing lies-even sometimes to the point of paranoia.

I personally think the Sun is not good in the 8th. The Sun is too "loud" and not discreet enough in the 8th to uncover the interconnected nature of things. That calls for more intuitive "knowing" that the Moon can provide.

Julian is assisted by Moon in 12th in his case. As well as Jupiter/Neptune being very productive in the 12th conj his Asc-its no wonder he appears very guarded for an Asc in Sag(ruler of Asc (Jupiter) in the 12th)

I think of the Sun in 8th as the type to expose the Drug traffickers.But the Moon in 8th goes deeper and exposes the Drug Lords.
