They may display a disproportionate lust for projects or for having things like money or food.
This is the kind of 8 that listens to your needs and sufferings, cares about your pain for short periods of time, and then, out of innocence and friendship, tries to guide you to the pleasure and fun. They don’t give time or attention to problems deeply, they like to be simple and easy. So they make you avoid focusing on sentimentality. SO8s like the power a group offers, and they may have difficulty engaging in more "individualized" relationships. In extreme cases, this 8 can tend toward megalomania.
These 8s typically lose consciousness of their own needs for health and care.
