Today is a very special day. 09-09-09 doesn’t happen every day. It will be 100 years before it happens again.
When my Jazzercise instructor made a comment about the day this morning, I became intrigued with the meaning of the number 9. I couldn’t wait to get home to look it up in my numerology books.
Here’s what Dan Millman says about the number 9 in The Life You Were Born to Live: “Those working with 9 as a life purpose are here to live in accord with their highest integrity, to align their life with their heart’s intuitive wisdom, and to inspire others by their example.” (To compute your life purpose number, you must add all digits in your birth month, day, and all four digits of your birth year, then add those numbers together to get a final single digit number. For example, my number is 4, obtained by adding 03 -29-1952…0 + 3 + 2 + 9 + 1 + 9 + 5 + 2 = 31, then 3 + 1 = 4.)
In Feng Shui, there are nine life situations or “baguas,” and the number 9 is associated with the 9th life situation, that of health.
Doreen Virtue in Angel Numbers 101 says this of the number 9: “Get to work, Lightworker – now! The number 9 means that you’ve completed all of the prerequisites to achieve your life purpose. Stop procrastinating, as it’s time to start taking action steps. Even baby steps are useful.”
I Googled the meaning of the number 9 and found the following on www.whats-your-sign.com: “The spiritual meaning of number Nine bring us to the very height of vibrational frequencies in this number sequence. Nine represents attainment, satisfaction, accomplishment, and our success to achieve an influence in our circumstances. The spiritual meaning of number nine deals with intellectual power, inventiveness, influence over situations and things. Nine beseeches us to recognize our own internal attributes, and extend these abilities out into the world to make a positive, influential difference.”
When you Google the meaning of 9 in the Bible, many explanations emerge. The consistent theme seems to equate the number 9 with judgment, such as in the following explanation found at http://www.carm.org/christianity/bible/what-biblical-numerology:
| “There are 9 Greek words derived from the root word meaning judgment = dikay. The following words each occur 9 times in the Bible: abussos (bottomless pit); asebee (ungodly); aselgeia (lasciviousness); and astrapee (lightning). The gifts of the spirit are 9 in number (1 Cor. 12:8-10): the word of wisdom, the word of knowledge, faith, healing, miracles, prophecy, discerning of spirits, tongues, and interpretation of tongues.” |
What if we string all these together to make this day, 09-09-09, a spectacular one?
- Let us live this day with our highest integrity and our heart’s intuitive wisdom.
- Today let us acknowledge our own special internal attributes. What about you sets you apart? What makes you special?
- Let us pay attention to our health this day. Let us eat healthy nutrients, bring peace and joy to our mind, and take advantage of the beautiful fall weather to take a walk, even if just a little one.
- Let us take a moment to ponder the questions, “What is my life purpose?” “Am I living it?” What baby steps can you take today that will bring joy to your heart? How can you make a positive, influential difference in your life and the lives of others?
- When you lay your head upon your pillow tonight, how will you judge it? What was special about your day?
09-09-09…here we come! Ready to take on this magnificent day! : )
