February 9 Zodiac Birthday Signs – Creative and original, you are a friendly Aquarian with an independent personality. Mentally quick and receptive, you can be persuasive and charismatic. Your intuitive and humanitarian nature provides you with a unique perspective on life and suggests that you are sociable and a good observer of human behavior. Multitalented and with many choices, you would be wise to avoid worry and indecision, as these may undermine your confidence and sap your vital energy.
With the subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Gemini, you possess an inventive approach to problem solving. Broad-minded and unconventional in some of your ideas, you may experience flashes of inspiration. Needing freedom, you can sometimes appear very detached, and others may interpret your manner as being cold or uninterested.
Since you enjoy bringing innovations to outdated ideas, you may find that your progressive ideas are ahead of their time. Although inspiration can take you to great heights, mental discipline is essential in order to avoid plummeting to equally great lows. The combination of your universal understanding and natural mystical potential, however, can be developed to bring much wisdom into your life and the lives of others.
Personal magnetism and the need for constant variety suggest that you will make many contacts and experience different circumstances in your life, with a possibility of involvements abroad. Although with your many interests there is a danger of becoming scattered, you can be very focused and hardworking when committed to a project or activity.
While you are between the ages of eleven and forty, when your progressed Sun moves through Pisces, your emotional sensitivity and imagination are accentuated. This makes you more impressionable or aware of your social life, dreams, and creative or spiritual gifts. At the age of forty-one there is a turning point as your progressed Sun enters Aries, emphasizing a need to actively take the initiative in all your affairs, possibly starting new ventures or pioneering progressive ideas. Another change of emphasis occurs at age seventy-one when your progressed Sun enters Taurus, highlighting a greater need for stability and a practical approach to life.
