Meaning & Etymology
Italian, German, Spanish
Feminine form of the Late Latin name Clarus which meant "clear, bright, famous". The name Clarus was borne by a few early saints. The feminine form was popularized by the 13th-century Saint Clare of Assisi (called Chiara in Italian), a friend and follower of Saint Francis, who left her wealthy family to found the order of nuns known as the Poor Clares. As an English name it has been in use since the Middle Ages, originally in the form Clare, though the Latinate spelling Clara became more popular in the 19th century.

Life Path 8 is governed by Saturn — the great karmic teacher of the solar system, the planet of discipline, consequence, authority, and the mastery of the material world through sustained effort. The vibration of 8 is the energy of power wielded with integrity: the understanding that true authority is earned through competence, discipline, and the willingness to take responsibility for outcomes. The symbol of the 8 — the lemniscate, the infinity sign rotated — speaks to the fundamental principle of this number: what goes around comes around, and every act of power carries a proportional energetic consequence. Life Path 8s are the executives, the entrepreneurs, the visionaries who understand that building something lasting in the physical world requires both spiritual alignment and ruthless practical discipline.
