Nine Star Ki Astrology
Interpreting your Numbers
The first step when making a basic interpretation of your Nine Star Ki is to look at the qualities of the Year number.
Using a 6 Metal, 9 Fire, 8 Earth person as an example, it can be seen that a 6 Metal person functions best when they feel they are contributing to the greater good of their family, or society as a whole. They may not not be particularly creative, but they are very organised and are able to bring the best out in others.
Their leadership skills earn them respect, but they need to be aware of what others really need, and not just impose their own ideas, and that stressful circumstances will bring out the dictator in them, and make them depressed and isolated.
At times like these they need to lavish some attention on themselves, and in future work to develop a support network around them to provide a more humane environment.
When it comes to looking at the Month number, it can be seen that as a child the person with a 9 Fire Month would almost certainly been overindulged by their parents. Making them prone to anxiety and unable to judge the most practical course of action to take out of all the possibilities available to them. This could lead to chaotic, ungrounded behaviour making them even more anxious and prone to hysterical outbursts.
Through looking at the element calculation between Metal and Fire it can be seen that Fire controls Metal, and so we can say that this person will not be able to achieve all that they set out to do, unless they control their flamboyance. They need to listen more to others and be realistic and practical, otherwise they will lose the respect of people and become socially isolated.
We can also see that as their 9 Fire Month is in control of their Year number, it is the Month number that needs most support. As they are in a situation where they are living from their emotional experience of life as a child, rather than their potential as an adult, which imposes a great strain on the child aspect.
They can do this by developing their self awareness and avoiding the tendency to over indulgence, which is especially true when it comes their behaviour. Meeting a mate who is able to feed their imagination and channel their energies into practical activities, will bring out their warmth and clarity. As will reducing the consumption of cold salads, animal foods, hot spices and alcohol, and introducing a more balanced vegetarian diet.
Lastly, the House number of this person is 8 Earth, which indicates that the first signs of stress in their life is likely to be a loss of confidence and the tendency to worry a lot, especially about money and making decisions.
They are also prone to blood sugar imbalances and a general stagnation of their Ki, but once they become aware of this, it can be alleviated by avoiding heavy baked foods, sugar and alcohol, and through taking gentle exercise, or even by just doing something as simple as gardening.
