The Significance of the Number 9 in Numerology

Mars is the ruling planet of people born on day 9, 18, or 27 in any month, or
those whose destiny or name number totals 9. The Mars qualities described
below are most clearly visible in people who have 9 as a psychic number.
Mars is the commander in chief of the assembly of the Gods. It is respected by
the nine luminaries, the nine planets which are facets of the same divinity. Mars
is personified as a strong masculine figure, dressed as a warrior and riding a ram
(an animal famous for its combative nature). The word martial most probably
has its origin from the planet Mars and its qualities: a strong sense of purpose,
duty, order, and discipline. Mars is famous for such qualities as courage,
bravery, patience, and self-confidence. One of the Sanskrit terms for Mars,
Lohitang, describes its shiny red color, which can be seen with the naked eye in
the night sky.
Mars is considered a malefic planet by astrologers, because the natives ruled
by Mars are egotists who put their own desires above those of others. Its
influence makes them short-tempered, argumentative, lovers of destructive
weapons, restless, unstable, cruel, and violent. They are capable of harming any
or all of their associations. Mars is also thought to be malefic because it creates
difficulties in the marital life of its natives when it is placed in the first, fourth,
seventh, or tenth house of their natal chart.
Mars is related to the blood, as its other Sanskrit names, Kujar and Rudhir,
suggest. It is also related to the muscular system, and to the bone marrow, which
strengthens the immune system by manufacturing white blood corpuscles to
fight off viruses and bacteria. In this way, Mars helps the body’s defense
mechanisms. It rules over courage, which is directly related to blood sugar
levels. Thus Mars provides strength and is related to well-being. However, the
instability and restlessness given by Mars makes its natives always unsure,
doubting, and impulsive by nature. These qualities create a kind of insensitivity,
which makes Mars malefic and makes its natives prone to illegal ventures and
illicit love affairs.
Natives ruled by Mars are lovers of the martial arts, hunting, sports, debates,
contests, public speaking, and politics.
Mars gives its natives a sportsmanlike spirit, which makes them accept defeat
or victory equally well. It gives its natives a dynamic energy that makes them do
daring things, such as walk on fire or fight with a tiger or elephant. Its natives
love to surprise people by their unusual courage. They achieve the peak of their
power from twenty-seven to forty years of age.
The Sun, Moon, and Jupiter are friends to Mars. Saturn, Venus, Rahu, and
Ketu are neutral in friendship; Mercury is its only enemy.
Those natives born on the twenty-seventh are the most gentle and doubting;
those born on the ninth are rougher and tougher, but also more fortunate and
powerful. Natives born on the eighteenth suffer from inner conflicts and become
progressively less clear, more selfish, and quarrelsome With time.

Psychic Number 9 

Nine is the psychic number of those born on day 9, 18, or 27 of any month. All
qualities of Mars stated above are clearly visible in natives born on the ninth day
of any month.
A planet of fire and heat, Mars creates an intense energy that is not easy to
handle. It makes psychic number 9 natives restless; they are constantly engaged
in activities. They cannot rest until they have succeeded in achieving their
desired goals. They are fighters and fight their way toward the top in any field,
with a competitive but sportsmanlike spirit. They are courageous and love
adventure. They are ambitious and, due to their strong will and determination,
they progress rapidly on their chosen path. They react quickly to situations and
become alert at the first unfavorable signal. Their inner defense mechanisms are
strong and they are always ready to receive opposition. Often they create
enemies by their over-alertness. They like to finish a dispute the minute it starts
and do not brood or ponder over their problems or exhaust their energies slowly.
They are outspoken. The influence of Mars gives number 9 natives a volatile
nature; they are easily provoked and explode more quickly than dynamite. They
do not believe in wasting time waiting for an opportune moment. Optimistic and
independent in nature with an inexhaustible supply of energy, they do not like to
live on charity or be at the mercy of others. They are free, frank, fearless,
impulsive, and tyrannical. They are extremists and believe in startling and
surprising the world with their daring acts, which sometimes leads them toward
a tragic end. They meet even a tragic end with courage and are not frightened by
death or disaster. Hard workers who love hardships, number 9 natives are full of
enthusiasm and inspiration and are always in a hurry to achieve their desired
object. They do not appreciate interference in their work and hate criticism. They
have a great sense of responsibility. Whatever they are doing is guided by their
sincerity and true understanding of the situation, which requires them to act the
way they do. They have good opinions about themselves and like to be
recognized and acknowledged for that. Their dominating natures bring them
resentment and criticism from every walk of life. In youth, they have to face
difficulties and opposition and bear hardships to achieve respectable places in
societies, homes, jobs, or fields of work. But, because of their strong will and
determination, they become successful after they reach forty.
They are like a coconut—hard on the outside and full of sweet pulp inside.
Outwardly, they are hard, disciplined, and unshakable; inside they are soft and
compassionate. They take good care of their subordinates.
Psychic 9 natives are good organizers and able administrators. If given full
authority and control, their resources, hard work, optimistic attitudes, and
practical knowledge can be of help to organizations. Without authority and
complete control, they become disinterested and slowly inactive. They love
honor and prestige and can do anything and bear any kind of physical, mental, or
financial losses for the sake of their honor and prestige. They spend energy to
get affection and sympathy.
Although they are especially devoted to their families and take good care of
their parents, they are somewhat unlucky in their domestic lives and quarrel
frequently with their life partners.
A psychic number 9 man is motivated by sexual impulse. But often, because
he dominates his partner and is possessive, he meets failure and becomes
desperate. His behavior toward his life partner over time becomes erratic. If he
finds a good life partner in his early years, he leads a successful married life. He
wants complete union, deep romantic involvement, and physical pleasure from
his wife. If he gets complete attention, he experiences spectacular progress in
life.
While a psychic number 9 man does not show much respect and love for his
wife, he is very kind, jovial, and friendly with other women. He loses his temper
and mental balance, quarrels, and isolates himself from his wife, and suffers. He
is misjudged by his life partners, friends, and relatives, although his marriage
brings financial good fortune and worldly success. While fond of pomp and
show, he mostly lives a simple life.
A psychic number 9 woman is generally very caring, hospitable, and friendly,
although selective and secretive in her involvements. She can make an excellent
housewife, devoted and loyal to her husband, full of glamor and charming, but
she has less chance for a wholesome married life than does a number 9 man. She
expects total loyalty from her husband and cannot tolerate any kind of flirtation.
Her life partner becomes sick, and she has to spend large amounts of energy on
him.
Both male and female psychic number 9 natives say no before they say yes.
They spend a lot of time and energy keeping their houses and workplaces
immaculately clean and in order, but they cannot create order and peace in their
domestic lives.
They are susceptible to accidents and injury from fire, explosives, and
electricity; they have to go through a surgical operation and a law suit in their
life. They are often wounded or injured and meet their death through wounds or
injuries that become infected or through surgical operations.
When emotionally hurt, they become revengeful, aggressive, and cruel.
They are born with the abilities of leadership and can control very obstinate
and stubborn people with their compassion and human qualities.
When the destiny number and name number are in harmony, a psychic
number 9 person rises to become head of a large organization. A psychic 9
possesses a powerful and dominating personality, has high ideals, is broad-
minded and creative. Marriage between a psychic 9 and someone who has a
harmonious number makes for a good family—open to all, helpful, serving, and
exemplary. If born into a family in which the numbers of their parents and
siblings are harmonious, a psychic 9 enjoys life, rises in status, becomes famous,
and achieves greatness.
Psychic 9 natives are born to be successful and have all the necessary qualities
to be so. They awe people by performing daring acts in their middle age. They
are thought to be fortunate by people who are not their life partners and close
friends.

Precautions for Psychic Number 9

All number 9s are prone to accidents caused by fire, explosives, storms, flood,
and traffic. They should be alert while handling firearms; avoid going through
hurricanes, storms, and floods; and be careful while driving.
They should avoid any kind of provocation and thoughts of revenge.
They should get rid of false pride and hypocrisy because it brings jealousy and
criticism.
They should not become emotional quickly and lose courage.
They should avoid taking risks and doing daring acts unnecessarily or only to
prove their courage, endurance, and determination.
They should avoid negative talk, complaining, and judging their colleagues,
partners, and life partners. They should love their life partners, create peace in
their domestic lives, and remember the axiom “To err is human, and to forgive is
divine.”
They should avoid surgical operations, whenever possible.
They should not hurry and should overcome their restlessness.
They should avoid appearing stern and learn to keep smiles on their faces.
They should respect their superiors and not enter into unnecessary arguments
or discussions with them, because 9s are easily provoked and lose their tempers.
They should avoid all quarrelsome situations and try not to be negative,
offensive, loud, or violent.
They should follow disciplines that create order in their lives.
They should be careful in signing legal papers and should study them properly
before doing so. If necessary, they should consult lawyers or experts before
signing.
They should not be overconfident about their powers, energies, and robust
personalities, and they should avoid being extremists. They should be careful
with their own power because it could destroy them, too.
They should avoid three of their main shortcomings:

• anger
• arrogance
• aggressiveness.

They should not isolate themselves but rather should widen their circles of
friends and acquaintances.
They should not lose touch with humor at any cost—it will bring them good
luck.
They should keep track of the movement of Mars through different signs of
the Zodiac and avoid starting new ventures, performing daring tasks, or leading
movements when Mars is debilitated, exiled, or retrograde.
They should avoid intoxicants and drugs, because they are prone to addiction.

Destiny Number 9

The number 9 is better as a destiny number than a psychic number. Psychic 9
people are short-tempered, angry, and quarrelsome. Those with 9 as a destiny
number are governed by their psychic number. If the latter is harmonious, they
get over their anger and shortcomings easily and repent for their impulsive,
quarrelsome behavior. In the absence of a harmonious psychic number, a destiny
9 person should choose a harmonious name number because it has a great
influence on the psyche. The practice of some kind of religious discipline can
also help overcome these shortcomings.
They develop spiritually and mentally through the hardships of life; they
understand the meaning of cosmic love and can appreciate true wisdom. If they
set the goal of achieving perfection in spiritual life, they succeed in it and
achieve the knowledge of both mind and matter. They prove to be excellent
teachers. They do not believe blindly in what they learn from the scriptures and
their spiritual teachers, but add the dimension of practical experience, which
enables their students to be truly spiritual.
Destiny 9 and psychic 9 people are both lovers of fine art and beauty. The
difference between them is psychic 9 natives have to learn and struggle to make
their way in the world of fine art. Destiny 9 people, on the other hand, easily
become successful and famous in that field and are surrounded by beauty of all
kinds. They become the favorites of beautiful, famous, and successful artists,
eminent writers, and spiritual masters.
Although destiny 9 people have to face difficulties and conflicts with their
parents and siblings in childhood, later on they are loved by them, and their
noble qualities become fairly well recognized and appreciated.
It is their destiny to be always busy. They become restless when they rest or
are asked to rest.
Interested in everything that makes life enjoyable, they love adventure and
romance and believe that life is meant for enjoyment and the sharing of
inspiration. They become interested in higher and more refined ways of living.
They follow their own inner guidance in seeking truth. They are able to
recognize truth because their intuitions are good and they try to adopt the right
means to reach it. They follow hard disciplines, which they either invent or
impose on themselves to go deeper into the truth. Destiny 9s are not snobbish;
they feel a oneness with all living beings and see the spark of the divine in
everything. They are the protectors of humanity at large and of all living forms.
They become interested in the healing arts and ecology, in addition to their
interests in music, chanting, and the fine arts.
The last in the series of primary whole numbers, 9 is a number of completion
of the soul (consciousness) and is also considered mystical. To have a destiny
number of 9 means to be at the end of the cycle of life and death (birth and
rebirth). If these people become conscious of this early in their lives (the destiny
number normally becomes powerful only after thirty-five), they can accomplish
their goals. They do this by working out their past life karmas and by avoiding
new karmas, which are created by desires for sensual gratification. They can
become enlightened and go ahead on the path of no return.
Destiny 9 makes people spiritually inclined, soft, and humble. Their violent
nature finds a way out through debates, public speaking, and following hard,
self-imposed disciplines. It gives them single-mindedness and the dedication of a
saint; it gives them endurance and the spirit of a sportsman. Those who are not
spiritually inclined express their violence in politics or at work through more
civilized forms of quarrel and combat.
Destiny 9s have to struggle a lot because of their doubting nature, their
negative ways of thinking, and their imaginary problems.

Name Number 9

While the name number influences the psychic number, it does not affect the
destiny number, because destiny is created by past life karmas. When the
psychic number is not in harmony with the destiny number, then the name
number can generate harmony in life—this is why people sometimes change
names or adopt pen names. Nine is definitely not good as a name number for
those with a psychic or destiny number of 9: it will make the influence of Mars
more powerful and create problems in their marital life. But 9 is a very good
name number for those who have 2, 3, or 7 as their psychic or destiny numbers.
For number 6 people it is neither bad nor good, but neutral. To number 2s it
brings strength; to number 3s, good luck; and to number 7s it brings help from
everywhere.
A name number 9 makes people frank, expressive, creative, and independent.
It gives them strong wills and determination and the strength and endurance to
bear the hardships and oppositions of life. For politicians it is a good name
number. It is also good for sportsmen, wrestlers, military people, artists, poets,
musicians, composers, and saints. It brings them fame, honor, prestige, and
recognition. Name number 9 also makes people work hard, and leaves them no
time for amusement and rest. It generates restlessness but also makes them
creative. They use their restlessness to express the restlessness present in the
world outside. They work to create better living conditions in which they and
their world can rest and enjoy. Name number 9 also gives an adventurous and
romantic nature. It makes males more masculine and gives attraction and glamor
to females. For the spiritually inclined this name number is of great help. It
makes them meet renowned spiritual masters, clairvoyants, and psychiatrists.
Sometimes they themselves become one of these and achieve fame for their
intuitive power and surprising feats. All number 9 natives should engage in some
kind of regular religious practice that involves chanting and physical exercises.
Nine is not a good name number for psychic or destiny 4s or 8s.
