Root number 6
Born on 6 September
Venus · a sense of beauty and the instinct to care
6 September: the reading for this birthday alone
For those born on the 6th, home is the centre of the world. Feeding guests, sitting beside someone who is ill, shouldering the household with a smile: it is in their nature. They have an eye for beauty too, though in keeping others happy they often bury their own wishes.
The Sun at birth: Leo · Purva Phalguni. At your birth the Sun stood in its own sign, Leo, so there is something regal in your personality. Respect and recognition matter a great deal to you, and you are generous too. You are at ease on a stage or in front of a team; your test is not to hunger for praise.
The Sun sits in the middle 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 Purva Phalguni fills life with joy, art and friendship; after hard work you know how to enjoy rest. Venus, the planet of your root number, and The Sun, 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 6 September, with the Sun in Leo: four areas of life
Career
In service, beauty, education or family-centred business your heart and success meet. Your place is in administration, politics, management, entertainment or wherever leadership is needed.
Money
Much goes on home and loved ones; keep a share for yourself too. Spending for status runs high; even with a good income, keep accounts.
Love and relationships
You are devoted in love; just do not make every sacrifice alone, share it. Generous and warm in love, you expect admiration and respect from your partner.
Health
You are drawn to sweet and heavy food; mind the throat and weight. Look after the heart, spine and eyes; avoid overexertion.
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
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.
Your birthday is a single digit, so your nature, behaviour and core all share one number. Your personality is simple and clear.
