Compound number 19 · root number 1
Born on 19 April
the Sun · the strength to stand on your own
Compound number 19: The Sun's number, one of the most fortunate of the compound numbers. Honour, success and happiness are all written into it.
19 April: the reading for this birthday alone
Those born on the 19th have a light about them that people notice. Dignity at work, respect at home and people's affection all come to them with relative ease. Their will to stand on their own is strong; drop the insistence on doing everything alone and success comes sooner.
The Sun at birth: Aries · Ashwini. At your birth the Sun stood in Aries, where it is at its strongest (exalted). Confidence and the urge to move forward are plain in your nature. Leadership finds you; the only thing to manage is impatience.
The Sun sits in the first third of the sign, a portion (drekkana) ruled by Mars, so courage, fire and the will to fight on are added. The Sun in Ashwini gives speed in work and a helping hand; in trouble you are the first to arrive. The Sun, the planet of your root number, and Mars, lord of the Sun's sign at birth, are friends. So the qualities of your birthday and of your sign pull in the same direction; you are quick to find your path.
Born on 19 April, with the Sun in Aries: four areas of life
Career
Success comes easily in leadership, public office or work in front of people. Work where you can decide for yourself suits you: the army or police, engineering, sport or your own business.
Money
Income comes with honour; make use of influential people's support. Income comes from initiative and goes just as fast; keep an emergency fund.
Love and relationships
Warm and generous in love; give your partner's opinion equal space. In love you are direct and sincere, though words said in anger hurt later.
Health
Look after the heart and eyes; do not stay long in the sun. Watch the head, eyes and blood pressure; take care against injuries.
The Sun’s sign and nakshatra are worked out from the day and month; for a birth close to the day the Sun changes sign, it can shift by a day from year to year. Check the full birth chart to be sure.
Your three-layer personality
the Sun: Inside, you are built for independence. From childhood, an order given in the wrong tone makes something in you refuse, and you find no peace unless the decision is your own.
Mars: Outside, you are hardworking and plain-spoken. The habit of saying the truth to someone's face has given you friends, and it has given you enemies too.
Root number 1 belongs to the Sun, and the Sun stands in nobody's shadow. Neither do you. Until you have built an identity of your own, in work, in business or within the family, you will not be satisfied. You decide quickly, and respect matters more to you than money. The one difficulty is that stubbornness sometimes outruns reason. Those born under this number show the same pattern again and again: the ones who learned to listen to the people close to them led for a long time, and the ones who never learned rose high and found themselves alone.
friend Inside versus outside: The inner mind and the outward behaviour support each other. You do what you think, which is why people trust you easily.
