Life Path Number 9
The Life Path 9 is all about mystery. The Life Path Nine is an old soul and has to deal with all the complexities of life. When their life becomes stretched out or exaggerated, they are not being their true self. The 9 needs to be filled with love and compassion for life, otherwise, they may become too self centered or self absorbed which leads them to being more of a taker than a giver, They function best when they are able to listen to their emotions, and navigate the world in a way that allows them to explore their deeper nature. When the 9 focuses on life as a giver, they learn to allow love to flow out of them. They need to be able to take action and stay focused. The 9 can be a bit of a dreamer, and they will need to learn to make these dreams a reality. If they fail to take action, they can become very bitter and resentful of others, accusing them of stealing their ideas. However, if they learn to apply themselves and believe in themselves, there’s no limit to what they can accomplish. This is also a reason why they must learn to face their fears. The 9 is a blend of all the other Life Paths combined. They are said to be and old and wise incarnation, and they would do well to follow their emotions in life.
