In old metaphysical studies, the number Eight is associated with Saturn - father, and superstitiously counted as symbol of Evil. Number Eight is made of two circles - one for a man, and one - for God. Together these two circles create the symbol of infinity. Today we know, that 8 is the number of the Sun (and therefore the God), and that Saturn is not the embodiment of evil.
