Compound number 24 · root number 6
Born on 24 March
Venus · a sense of beauty and the instinct to care
Compound number 24: The number of support. Cooperation arrives through love, through family and from the opposite sex, and much of your work gets done through relationships.
24 March: the reading for this birthday alone
People born on the 24th move forward on the strength of family and relationships. They get help from influential people, and fortune often opens after marriage. Responsible, affectionate and fond of making a home beautiful, they lose pace only if they lean too far towards comfort.
The Sun at birth: Pisces · Uttara Bhadrapada. At your birth the Sun stood in Pisces. Imagination, compassion and a spiritual pull run deep in you. Art, music or service hold your heart. You take on other people's pain as your own; keep the practical accounts straight and feeling will never cheat you.
The Sun sits in the first third of the sign, a portion (drekkana) ruled by Jupiter, so knowledge, a sense of principle and the gift of teaching are added. The Sun in Uttara Bhadrapada gives deep knowledge, restraint and a steady mind; you stay calm in danger. Venus, the planet of your root number, and Jupiter, lord of the Sun's sign at birth, do not get along well. Two different pulls work inside you; learn to manage that tension and it is what makes you versatile.
Born on 24 March, with the Sun in Pisces: four areas of life
Career
You advance in family business, beauty, housing or work with influential people. Art, music, medicine, service, religious or charitable work bring both your heart and your success.
Money
Finances improve after marriage or with family support; do not overspend on comfort. Money does not stay easily; it goes on charity or on others, so set yourself a saving rule.
Love and relationships
Home and relationships are your strength; keep good ties with your partner's family too. Devoted and romantic in love; only idealising your partner leads to hurt later.
Health
Sweets and comfort put on weight; stay active. Mind the feet, sleep and immunity; stay away from intoxicants.
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 Moon: Inside, you are soft and easily touched. You read someone's state of mind from their face alone, and that is exactly why small remarks wound you more than they should.
Rahu: Outside, you are hardworking and reliable. Give you a task and it gets done, even if the method is not one anybody recognises.
Root number 6 belongs to Venus, who governs beauty and pleasure. At the centre of your life there is always a relationship, a family, a home. You are the kind of person who swallows your own difficulty in order to see a smile on the face of someone you love. Art, music, cooking, decoration, anything beautiful draws you naturally, and your livelihood may well be hidden somewhere in that. One caution only: lean too far towards comfort and indulgence and your talent lies unused.
enemy Inside versus outside: There is a pull between the inside and the outside. You are not quite the person others see. Reconciling the two is the larger lesson of your life.
Born in March: how it marks your life
enemy The strength of your birth month works against your root number. So the events below arrive through struggle and delay, though the delay itself is what makes the foundation solid. This month's central theme is learning and expressing yourself.
- Childhood & family
- Study, examinations and competition occupy a large part of life from childhood onwards.
- Career turning point
- The turn comes through higher study, training, or the advice of someone who stands as a teacher to you.
- Love & marriage
- Friendship with your partner and a meeting of minds are the two conditions that keep the relationship alive.
- Places & travel
- You are drawn towards centres of learning and towards cities; settling in a village is difficult.
