The Number 9 in Numerology + Tarot
Based on my old tweets back on 03/29/20 with some revisions I made based on my new experience, check out my numerology article to gain context of what this card means in Numerology: https://www.taisoleil.com/articles/2021/4/30/lv7h7k1chv9fyckz923can5osazt33
9 is an interesting number. It’s completion and comfortable with being where it is in in Tarot. If you notice that all of these 9 cards in the major arcana are comfortable with where they are, no longer seeking anything more, and giving up.
The 9 of Pentacles refuses to see anything outside of what it already had. They think this is it, even if they’re unhappy and bored. The 9 of Cups is emotional satisfaction. It is the honeymoon phase, also comfortable with just, being there, no longer seeking peace, just a high. The 9 of Wands is exhausted, and with that, they give up everything to keep what it has. The cards is every apocalyptic, and chooses to survive instead of the goal of the Ace of Wands purpose was: to live. The 9 of Swords is conflicting too many truths and psyched themselves out. This card is the most interesting one. It accepted the negative as the truth, its demise, and gave up when it had nothing else to back up their claims, instead of finding their personal truth.
Everytime I see a 9 card in tarot it always gives me a “why are you comfortable with where you are” vibe just as much as I get a “a mini celebration before the true reward” vibes. It really all depends on the spread but I don’t always see it as good. It feels, isolating and fake. It’s a false sense of happiness. A settlement. It’s probably one of the darker cards to me. More darker than the 5s. It’s reminds me of those creepypastas where they say how characters in shows are living in a fantasy world to replace the reality where their parents are dead. It’s like “damn idk where else to go so I’m gonna pretend everything is okay hahahahahha ☺️“ like the 9 of Pentacles is kinda, an odd card. The 9 of Pentacles feels far removed from the other ones, it doesn’t feel read. The 7 feels like the warning of the truth, the 8 feels like the moment towards truth, and the 9 is the false truth to slip you up. Do you settle to your own demise, or do you ask for what you truly deserve? That’s the real test of it all.
For the longest I thought she was happy until I realize right now she’s not even smiling. She’s unhappy. This is not living for her. This was one of my favorite cards, and it says a lot about my projection onto what this card means. What’s so good and happy about this card?
