The full deep dive
The heart of 9
Nine is the number of completion. Nines see the bigger picture and want to make the world kinder. They are idealistic, artistic and broad-minded, with friends from every walk of life.
In love
In love, Nines are romantic and giving, though they can love humanity more easily than one person up close.
At work
Nines are drawn to charity, the arts, medicine, teaching and any work that serves others.
Something to watch
Nines can find endings hard or give until they are empty. Their lesson is to let go gracefully and give without losing themselves.
