9 FEBRUARY


The Birthday of the Winning Attitude

“Nothing can stop me”


The life lesson: is to be less self-critical.

The way forward: is to talk to yourself as though you are a child, in a positive, supportive and loving way.

Luck maker: Keep your cool when the going gets tough. Panic doesn’t solve anything.


February 9-born are independent and generous individuals with a unique and, at times, nonconformist perspective on life. They are shrewd observers and capable of great understanding of others’ problems, even if they have not experienced those problems themselves. Above all, they are fighters. When life knocks them down, they bounce right back with resilience, and this winning attitude can lead them to great achievements. Often sought out for their sound advice, they make great teachers and leaders, influencing and inspiring not just with words but with their example—showing others through their own actions how to rise above challenges with a winning attitude. Their inner strength can make them seem unbreakable at times, but they do possess a soft side that takes rejection and criticism to heart. They also have a tendency to act rashly; they need to remain calm under pressure.

Born mentors, these people are perfect for advisory positions and make great educators, carers, counselors, consultants, therapists, politicians, lawyers and psychologists. They are multitalented and often have more than one career. Science, social and humanitarian reform, the arts, design, technology, property development, navigation, aviation, international business, social media or any career that involves plenty of travel and variety is ideal. Blessed with boundless energy, their secret to good health is eating little and often and avoiding alcohol and drugs. For self-care, sprinkle a few drops of jasmine oil on a handkerchief to breathe in when you feel overwhelmed. This will help you see the sunnier side of life.

When it comes to relationships, these people need to learn to be as understanding of themselves as they are of others. Before the age of 40 they seek the approval of others, but, after that, the emphasis switches to self-love as well as a need to take the initiative in all areas of their lives. Once they are able to regard themselves more positively—and to be less harsh in their self-criticism—their destiny is to achieve the high goals they set themselves, devote themselves to a positive cause and, in the process, become an inspirational role model to those lucky enough to cross their path.
