People born on December 9 are blessed with a fertile imagination. From childhood they will have cast themselves in the role of the dashing hero or heroine swooping in to save the day and astonishing everyone with acts of daring and courage. In adulthood they often become highly energetic individuals who love to be the center of attention.
They have a powerful urge to make important and inspirational contributions to the world and, with their imaginative mind, fixity of purpose and adventurous spirit they do possess outstanding pioneering potential. Born leaders, their biggest challenge is patience. Their patience can easily snap when things aren’t going exactly the way they want them to or when people aren’t listening to their suggestions. They need to learn when to promote their progressive ideals and when to step back and let things unfold. Calming their emotional intensity in response to any challenge they meet is crucial for their psychological growth, as well as for their chances of both professional and personal success.
Although they may have been shy as children, by the time they reach their twenties they will start to come out of their shells; if they can’t manage this, developing their self-confidence is crucial because these people were born to be in the limelight. Until the age of forty-two there will be opportunities for them to find realistic ways to achieve their goals in life. They need to take advantage of these; if they don’t, their dreams of progress and adventure will never move beyond the planning stage. After the age of forty-three there is a turning point when they may feel a desire to be more independent and to express their individuality.
At whatever age or stage in life they are, they have an all-encompassing, albeit occasionally self-centered urge to play a leading role in the lives of those around them. If they can implement their original and progressive visions it will give them the potential to make not just an imaginative but a real and significant contribution to the world.
☆ On the dark side:Selfish, controlling, unrealistic
☆ At your best:Progressive, romantic, dynamic
Those born on December 9 are active, imaginative individuals who love to be in the spotlight.
To them, life is a romantic adventure, involving daring exploits and surprises.
More than most, they must feel that they are the star of the show, the central character in the drama that is their life.
As children, those born on this day are commonly quiet, sensitive types with a highly active sense of fantasy. The exciting, heroic roles they assume in their imagination while young can become models for a much more extroverted adult persona. Those adult December 9 personalities who lead quiet lives usually continue to fantasize about bold and daring exploits. They may have to (sooner or later) recognize their need to express themselves outwardly if they are to be happy. Thus overcoming shyness and inhibitions is an important theme of this day.
Many December 9 people live in a highly subjective world, where their perceptions of a given situation can vary greatly from those of their friends, associates and family. For example, others may be quite satisfied with the status quo when a December 9 person sees an obvious and pressing need for change. This may be due to the heroic orientation mentioned above which tends to make for a rather uncompromising personality.
To their children and lovers, those born on this day can be bold protectors, battling the dragons of this world and giving no quarter. Such a role can be difficult to live up to as rapidly evolving circumstances make for changing needs and concerns. Thus, if December 9 people wish to remain in such a role, their idea of what it means to care for those dependent on them must be equally flexible and adaptable. This may also mean taking on responsibilities of a less glamorous and immediately gratifying nature.
If aggressive qualities of December 9 people do fully emerge, they must not be allowed to run riot, since such behavior can alienate loved ones and colleagues alike. In addition those born on this day must learn to put the lid on their volatile temper which when it erupts can cause damage that is difficult or impossible for them to repair.
Achieving a maturity which brings consistency and a sense of calm is perhaps the greatest challenge for December 9 people. Meeting challenges and overcoming obstacles is an inalienable part of their personality, but learning to give and take in an easy manner, accepting circumstances as they unfold without dramatizing them unduly will contribute greatly to their personal evolution. By growing into wiser roles which come with advancing age, they will have to leave some of their active, ebullient, but also adolescent attitudes behind. As they become more philosophical about life and objective about themselves, they will be increasingly effective and useful to others.
Power Thought:My positive and patient thoughts keep me in harmony with the universe,True heroism can be demonstrated in having the strength to face up to one's own ethical and spiritual shortcomings
Those born on the 9th day of the month are ailed by the number 9 and by the planet Mars. The number 9 is powerful in its influence on other numbers (any number added to 9 yields that number: e.g., 5+9=14, 4+1=5, and any number multiplied by 9 yields a 9: e.g.. 9x5=45, 4+5=9). and December 9 people are similarly influential. The planet Mars is forceful and aggressive, embodying male energy, and for December 9 people such characteristics are only strengthened by the influence of Jupiter, ruler of Sagittarius.
The 9th card of the Major Arcana is The Hermit, who is usually depicted walking with a lantern and a stick—he represents meditation, isolation and quietude. The Hermit also signifies crystallized wisdom and ultimate discipline. He is a taskmaster who motivates by conscience and guides others on their path. The positive indications of this card are stick-to-it-iveness. purpose, profundity and concentration; negative qualities include dogmatism, intolerance, mistrust and discouragement. December 9 people can learn the values of self-examination and thoughtfulness from the Hermit, but must beware of living in an isolated fantasy world.
☆Luck maker:(Give others credit)Lucky people give credit and share their success because when you recognize someone for the help they have given you, they are more likely to think well of you and steer opportunities your way.
You’re drawn to people born on March 21 to April 19:This is a tremendously energetic and passionate relationship which has the potential to be a long-term one.
People born on December 9 are romantic, ardent and passionate lovers, but for long-term success in relationships they need to find someone who can also show them the joys of the simpler, quieter things in life. Although routine and responsibilities are not for them and they need the freedom to travel and explore different experiences, when they do find a partner who is romantic and adventurous, but also solid and dependable, they can be surprisingly loyal and supportive.
People born on this day tend to be high-energy individuals who live fast and eat fast. This can cause digestion problems so it is important for them to learn to slow down, sit down and chew their food carefully. Eating on the go is bad news for their digestive health and their waistline because they are more likely to eat foods that are high in calories, fat, and additives and preservatives. For their psychological and physical health they also need to control their temper; when blinded by anger they can become accident prone. If they cannot find ways to deal with their anger it can lead to stress and frustration, both potentially dangerous to themselves and others. Anger-management techniques are recommended if the problem is severe; for milder cases, meditation and breathing techniques, or cognitive behavioral therapy, will help. Regular vigorous exercise, running in particular, is recommended as it can release pent-up tension. Wearing, meditating on and surrounding themselves with the color blue will help them to be more in control of their emotions.
More overt December 9 people must try- to soften and guide aggressive impulses. More covert types must avoid escaping to a romantic dream world and repressing aggression. Sometimes this repression inexplicably attracts personal violence, break-ins or damage to their house. A process of self-discovery' aided by psychological counseling can be extremely helpful to both types. Vigorous physical exercise (gymnastics, aerobics, running) is recommended but care must be taken in connection with martial arts.
These people may find themselves drawn to the political or scientific spheres, or to artistic media such as music, writing, literature, or drama. They love to express their ideas, so they may also be drawn to education, law, business, journalism, social reform, and the world of entertainment.
The life path of people born on this day is to learn to be calmer and more realistic in their approach. Once they have taken charge of their emotions, their destiny is to lead others to implement original and progressive changes.
Dare to be ordinary', too. You don't always have to be the star. Discover the joys of inner peace; live and let live. Don't let anger build up—find a positive way to alleviate it. Keep your feet on the ground.
