Many famous musicians, poets, and athletes have the 8 of Clubs birth card, having a life path that is successful. They can go after almost anything they set their mind to achieving, and most attain wealth and prominence but they must make sure their life is kept in balance as mental peace is essential.

Kurt Warner's Hall of Fame football career has proven to be of the more improbable rags-to-riches stories ever to come out of the sports world. Bypassed by the big Division I colleges, and at one point working the graveyard shift stocking shelves at a supermarket so he could stay in football shape during the day, Warner, a 28-year-old no-name back-up, catapulted to stardom in 1999. During his second full year in the NFL, he drove a high-powered St. Louis Rams offense to a Super Bowl victory and collected MVP honors along the way. Over the ensuing decade, Warner captained two other teams to the Super Bowl, registered another MVP season and threw for more than 200 career touchdowns.

Kurt Warner and Kris Kristofferson were both born on June 22, the 8 of Clubs/Ace of Diamonds.

Patrick Swayze was more than a triple threat. He could do it all: sing, dance, act, do gymnastics, fly planes, keep a steady marriage until the day he died, and be an international sex symbol. People magazine named Swayze the “Sexiest Man Alive” in 1991. The photo above depicts Swayze’s role as a camp dance instructor who sweeps summer camper Jennifer Grey off her feet in the 1987 box-office smash hit Dirty Dancing. Dirty Dancing premiered at the Cannes Film Festival on May 12, 1987 and was released on August 21 in the United States, earning over $214 million worldwide. Not too shabby for having had a $4.5 million budget. It earned positive reviews from critics, who particularly praised the performances of Grey and Swayze, and its soundtrack created by Jimmy Ienner, generated two multi-platinum albums and multiple singles. “(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life”, performed by Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes won the Academy Award for Best Original Song, the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song, and the Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group With Vocals.

Bob Dylan is an American singer-songwriter. Often considered to be one of the greatest songwriters in history, Dylan has been a major figure in popular culture over his 60-year career. He rose to prominence in the 1960s, when songs such as “The Times They Are a Changin’” (1964) became anthems for the civil rights and antiwar movements. Since 1994, Dylan has published nine books of paintings and drawings and his work has been exhibited in major art galleries. He has sold more than 125 million records, making him one of the best-selling musicians ever. He has received numerous awards including the Presidential Medal of Freedom, ten Grammy Awards, a Golden Globe Award and an Academy Award. Dylan has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. In 2008, the Pulitzer Prize Board awarded him a special citation for “his profound impact on popular music and American Culture, marked by lyrical compositions of extraordinary poetic power.” In 2016, Dylan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature.

Bob Dylan and G-Eazy were both born on May 24, the 8 of Clubs/6 of Diamonds day.

Gerald Earl Gillum, better known by his stage name G-Eazy, is an American rapper, record producer and actor. "Me, Myself & I" is a song by American rapper G-Eazy and Albanian-American singer-songwriter Bebe Rexha. It was released on October 14, 2015, as the lead single for G-Eazy’s second studio album When It’s Dark Out. The song was written by the two artists alongside Lauren Christy; originally produced by Rexha and TMS, it was re-produced by Michael Keenan with additional production by Christoph Andersson and G-Eazy. It was both artists' highest-peaking single, until Rexha's song “Meant to Be” peaked at number two on the US Billboard Hot 100, and G-Eazy's song “No Limit” peaked at number four. It is also featured in the NBA 2K17 soundtrack. Rexa, born August 30, is the 9 of Hearts/7 of Clubs. Her astrological ruling card (7 of Clubs) is ‘suited and connected’ to G-Eazy’s 8 of Clubs birth card.

Lady Gaga (left) and Joaquin Phoenix star in the movie Folie à Deux.

Lady Gaga stars in the movie Joker: Folie à Deux. A singer-actress, she morphs constantly from project to project, changing her look, which always pushes the boundaries of convention beyond the unconventional.

Lady Gaga (right), the 8 of Clubs/10 of Hearts, is suited and connected in her astrological ruling car (10 of Hearts) with Joaquin Phoenix’s Jack of Hearts.

Bradley Cooper (left) and Lady Gaga (right) together in A Star is Born (2018). Manhola Dargis, in The New York Times, wrote: “A Star Is Born” is such a great Hollywood myth that it’s no wonder Hollywood keeps telling it. Whatever the era, the director or the headliners, it relates the story of two lovers on dramatically differing paths: a famous man who’s furiously racing to the bottom (Bradley Cooper in this movie) and a woman (Lady Gaga) who’s soaring to the top.

Lady Gaga (right) sang duets with Tony Bennett when Tony was in his 90s; could the Lady and Kris Kristofferson (left) in his 80s at the time — sharing 8 of Clubs as birth cards — have pulled off a duet as well or even better than Bradley Cooper in the remake of a Star is Born?

Out of This World Chemistry: Robert Redford and Meryl Streep, starring in Out of Africa (1985), were a contributing factor to the film winning 7 Academy Awards. With a budget of $31 million, its box office revenues exceeded $227.5 million. Streep earlier this year reflected during a Cannes Q&A, on her famous scene with Robert Redford where he intimately washed her hair in the Sydney Pollack-directed romantic drama, Streep starred as a Danish baroness who falls in love with a big game hunter, played by Redford, while running a coffee plantation in colonial South Africa. The movie’s iconic moment features Redford tenderly washing Streep’s hair by a river, while reciting lines from English poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s seminal poem, “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner.” “It’s a sex scene in a way, because it’s so intimate,” the 74-year-old actress said during a Q&A earlier this year at the Cannes Film Festival. She added, “We’ve seen so many scenes of people f–king, but we don’t see that loving touch, that care. It’s gorgeous.” The audience responded with applause during the conversation at Cannes’ Théâtre Debussy. Streep and Redford had identical birth cards (8 of Clubs). Additionally they had same number (Ace/1) for astrological ruling cards. And one more thing? Samuel Taylor Coledridge — the poet who lived in the 18th and 19th centuries, author of “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner” poem, was born October 21 — the Ace of Clubs/10 of Spades, matching number (Ace/1) with both Redford and Streep.

Justify had good reason (and birthday power) to be an American Triple Crown winner. Justify, a Thoroughbred racehorse ‘stud’ born March 28, was 8 of Clubs/10 of Hearts — undefeated in his career.

Whose Your Daddy?! The number 8 is a lot of horsepower when it comes to father-son fantastic DNA. Scat Daddy, the siring horse to Justify, was born May 11, the 8 of Diamonds/3 of Hearts; Stage Magic, mother of Justify, was born May 4, the 2 of Spades/6 of Clubs. Justify, born March 28, is the 8 of Clubs/10 of Hearts, same number (8) birth card as his father, Scat Daddy.

Michael Earl Smith, the jockey who rode Justify, born August 10, the 3 of Diamonds/9 of Clubs, was inducted into the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame in 2003 and has won the most Breeders Cup races of any jockey with 27 victories. Smith is also the third leading jockey of all time in earnings with over $336 million. In 2018, Smith rode Justify to the Triple Crown, becoming the oldest jockey to win the title at age 52. Justify, born March 28, the 8 of Clubs/10 of Hearts and Smith were ‘suited and connected’ — Justify’s 8 of Clubs birth card to Smith’s 9 of Clubs astrological ruling card.

Bob Dylan and G-Eazy — both born on May 24, have identical birth and astrological ruling cards (the 8 of Clubs/6 of Diamonds). Dylan, G-Eazy and Kris Kristofferson (8 of Clubs/Ace of Diamonds) share the 8 of Clubs — all great song writers.

Robert Redford, and Patrick Swayze were born on August 18, the 8 of Clubs birth card and the Ace of Hearts astrological ruling card. Kris Kristofferson, Redford and Swayze were all leading men (actors) and all had 8 of Clubs as their birth card; Kristopherson’s astrological ruling card (Ace of Diamonds) was same number (Ace 1) as both Redford and Swayze.

Lady Gaga and Triple Crown winner Justify were born on March 28.

Lady Gaga’s victorious moment at the Critics Choice Awards in 2019 was bitter-sweet. Lady Gaga's transformation from pop heavyweight to Hollywood leading lady continued with the 'Shallow' singer earning the 2019 Critics' Choice Awards for best actress in a tie with Glenn Close. But Lady Gaga’s joy, the world learned in an Instagram post a day after, was countered as she contemplated her beloved horse Arabella’s looming terminal illness.
