ESSENCE OF NINE

RELEASE

After experiencing the world of material power in the Eight, Nine now knows that physical things are transitory and must be returned to the giver.  Having learned that life is cyclical, Nine gives back freely and without fear, those things it has gained so that the universe will be richer.  Nine is the humanitarian carrying the light of wisdom.

PERSONAL NUMBER NINE

You are the humanitarian who feels compassion and love for others regardless of social, economic, or racial barriers.  Because you understand that you are part of a greater whole, you give generously of your time and resources.  You seek wisdom rather than mere knowledge, desiring to make the world a more loving place in which to live.  Because you belong to the universal family, you know that you have to live impersonally and let go of things when it is time.  People are drawn to you because of your tolerance, inner-wisdom, and breath of vision, which is often prophetic.  You must live your own philosophy because you are an example for others.  The necessities of life may come easily so that you are free to follow your humanitarian impulses.  Avoid self-serving interests, which can only lead to a lack of faith in life's bounty.

PERSONAL YEAR CYCLE EIGHT

This is the final year in your nine-year cycle, a cleansing period in which those things no longer necessary in your life must be discarded to make room for a new round of experience in next year's Personal Year Cycle One.  Major changes occur now.  People may leave your life, you may change jobs or have to relocate. Things you have grown used to may have to be given up.  Your attitude changes dramatically.  Use some of your energy in charitable deeds.  Give back to life some of what you have been given so that you can experience first hand the joy of giving.  These acts are integral to the transition process.  Old friendships become especially meaningful now; new ones can develop.  You may receive gifts for you past efforts.  Many goals have been accomplished, and you should tie up those loose ends.  The past eight years have added to your pool of wisdom.  Sprinkle others with your sympathy, compassion, and understanding and be open to the cleansing wash of change.  An exciting new year lies ahead, beginning with your next birthday.
