Compound number 28 · root number 1
Born on 28 September
the Sun · the strength to stand on your own
Compound number 28: The number of hesitation. There is a tendency for things to slip away at the last moment even when everything was in hand, which is why people with this number must be most careful about contracts and written documents.
28 September: the reading for this birthday alone
People born on the 28th know how to push ahead and lead, yet they can also work hand in hand with others. Life brings a big rise, though leaving matters to others sometimes brings a fall. Looking into legal and financial matters themselves before deciding makes their position secure.
The Sun at birth: Virgo · Hasta. At your birth the Sun stood in Virgo. An eye for detail and the urge to do things perfectly are in your nature. You are skilled in accounts, health, service or analysis. You dwell on your own mistakes; watch also that pointing out other people's does not make you harsh.
The Sun sits in the middle third of the sign, a portion (drekkana) ruled by Saturn, so patience, restraint and a sense of duty run deeper. The Sun in Hasta gives skill with the hands; what you imagine, you can build yourself. The Sun, the planet of your root number, and Mercury, 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 28 September, with the Sun in Virgo: four areas of life
Career
You succeed both as a leader and in a team; check legal matters and paperwork yourself. You are exacting in accounting, medicine, pharmacy, research, editing or IT.
Money
A big rise comes, but leaving money to others brings loss; look into it yourself. Careful with money and never wasteful, though worry can make you miss chances.
Love and relationships
You are happiest in a relationship of equal partners. You show love in deeds rather than words; small acts of care reveal your heart.
Health
Look after the eyes and heart; too much responsibility builds fatigue. Mind the intestines and digestion; regular eating habits solve a lot.
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.
Saturn: Outside, you are steady and dependable. When a task falls to you, people know it will get done.
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.
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.
