Have you been seeing the number 9 in sequence lately? Maybe 999 or 9999 or just 9 repeating itself to such a degree that you’re beginning to wonder if it really is more than just a coincidence.
When it comes to angel numbers, there are no coincidences, so go with that gut feeling!
Angel numbers are numbers that appear to us, often at specific turning points in our lives, which are designed to provide us with messages from the Universe and our Higher Selves. They could come in the form of 111, 222, 555, and so forth, but each angel number tells us an important message.
In the Tarot, 9 represents the Hermit in the Major Arcana. The Hermit understands that in order to go inwards and find the deeper meaning, it is necessary to take time alone. Hence, the Hermit will be found dwelling in nature or caves until the time comes for him to re-emerge.
9 is considered a lucky number by some people. 9 taps into the innermost part of ourselves and helps bring us guidance and comfort, particularly in a world where it is easy to lose our way.
9 is a message from the divine realm letting you know you are on the right path. Change can be scary, and this applies to spiritual change, too. Everything is a result of spiritual change, but during a spiritual awakening, the symptoms are felt more intensely. You may go through a Dark Night of the Soul phase, and you may be exposed to aspects of yourself that were previously hidden. But once the transformation is complete, you emerge with a deeper sense of knowing and purpose.
Angel number 9 is a powerful reminder to understand the value of the present moment – the Now.
When we are in the present moment and allow the past and the future to fade away, we find a deep sense of peace and understanding. This can be achieved through meditation, which is why meditation is so highly recommended.
When we allow ourselves to live in the present, we raise our vibrational frequency and allow the Law of Attraction to work in our favor. It is our worries about the future, our frets about the past, and the overall activity of our sometimes unruly minds that block us from having everything we want.
9 is a reminder to trust in the divine and to know that our Higher Selves have a plan for all of us, which will come to fruition. We just need to pay attention to our inner guidance, follow our intuition, and be open to new possibilities.
Often, an angel number will show up at the moment when you happen to be active in or thinking about some area of your life. For example, suppose you are thinking about a new relationship you have with a love interest, and 999 shows up. In that case, it usually means the angel number has appeared in relation to this relationship.
Are we in relationships to satisfy an urge we have, or is there a deeper spiritual connection to our relationships? 9 is a number that represents closure to make way for new beginnings, so if 9 is appearing and relates to your relationships, it’s time to pay attention!
Often, angel number 9 in a relationship is a sign that it’s time to take a step back and consider what truly lies in our hearts. It’s time to take a reflective time-out.
If single, 9 can indicate that a powerful spiritual relationship is on its way. If you have been through some heartache, this number can show up, so don’t be disheartened – something special is on the way!
9 is a number of unconditional love, understanding, and great compassion. It signifies wholeness. Hence, this number will appear when true love is in sight or in your life. It is also a reminder that for this love to bloom and be able to express itself freely, all parties must put in the work.
Desire is a powerful theme of angel number 9, and it is normal for this number to appear if you are undergoing some kind of internal struggle in relation to your career.
The universe asks you to trust and not worry so much. Allow yourself to be present in the present moment. When you go with the flow and don’t try to force things to happen, things unravel naturally, and you will be led to the place that is meant for you.
Your Higher Self does not fret over negativity from the past, present, or future. Your Higher Self does not worry because it knows who you indeed are. Your Higher Self always guides you and urges you to connect with it because it wants you to be happy and fulfilled.
Angel number 9 is a reminder of this. When this number appears, pay attention! You are on a spiritual journey; the universe is there to help and guide you at every turn.
