The native should check what planet rules their 8th house and see where it is located in their natal chart.
For example, if Leo is on the cusp of the eighth house, the Sun’s position in the chart will provide additional pieces to the puzzle. If Aries is the sign on the eighth, Mars will be key.
Seeing the house it is located in as well as the aspects will unlock more clues to unravel the mystery.
