The 366 personality profiles in The Secret Language of Birthdays are based on a combination of astrology, numerology, the tarot, and Gary Goldschneider's many years of observation of more than 14,000 people, including contemporary and historical figures. Goldschneider's theory of "personology" proposes that all of life is cyclical: people born on the same day occupy the same point in the year's cycle and thus share certain characteristics. Learn what famous personalities were born on your birthday....Study your astrological sign and your personology profile....Your strengths, weaknesses, and major concerns will be illuminated while you are given practical advice and spiritual guidance. While you study your profile, you will find it hard to resist examining those of family, friends, colleagues, and favorite celebrities. Those born on the 9th of the month are ruled by the number 9 and by the planet Mars. The number 9 is powerful in its influence on other numbers (any number added to 9 yields that number: e.g., 5+9=14, 4+1=5, and any number multiplied by 9 yields a 9: e.g., 9x5=45, 4+5=9), and January 9 people are similarly influential. The planet Mars is forceful and aggressive, embodying male energy, but for January 9 people its influence can be colored by Saturn, ruler of Capricorn, which here grants seriousness of purpose but also potentially manipulative tendencies.

So oriented are January 9 people toward struggles and challenge that they rarely wish to rest on their achievements or retire to a life of happiness and contentment. They tend to be workaholics who commit themselves to their tasks one hundred percent and therefore can find it difficult to relax at the end of the day. Having a partner, friend or family member who can help them in this direction is of the utmost importance, as those born on this day are in great need of laughter and good times too. Not everyone can be expected to immediately understand the highly individualistic manner of those born during the Week of New Language , and patience is required in getting to know them better. The secret language of birthdays reveals the nature and behavioral pattern of your near and dear ones. Understanding the secret language of birthdays will solve many puzzles, thus making your bonding with them stronger. Those born during this week are people who are drawn by adventures of all sorts. They are constantly on the lookout for new experiences and are restless, striving for what lies beyond ordinary daily experience, which can prove too dull and boring.

One of the most prominent factors influencing birthday compatibility is the zodiac sign. According to astrological teachings, each of the twelve zodiac signs possesses distinct personality traits, strengths, and weaknesses. By understanding the characteristics of our own sign and those of our partner, we can gain valuable insights into our compatibility. Personology holds that not only are certain types of peo­ple born at various times of the year, as Jung or astrology might have predicted, but even specifically on certain days. Jung pointed out that each of us in the human family, regard­less of where we were born or how we live, carries with us a huge repository of symbols in a kind of collective or archetypalunconscious. The symbols of astrology itself, on the mandala of the zodiac, perhaps spring not only from the configurations suggested by the constellations in the heavens, but also from our own shared human archetypes.

Thus, bringing astrology, history and psychology together in concentric cycles or spirals--stressing evolutionary rather than static models for the individual--is at the heart of personology. The personality types presented under the twelve signs, forty-eight periods and three hundred and sixty-six days (including the leap year extra day) are flexible and fluid, each evolving from one to the next, constantly in motion, constantly changing, rather than fixed in stone." pg. 9 For all of us, as well, this is a week in which we may also feel itchy and long to change our circumstances. It will benefit us to go with these feelings, using them as an impulse to investigate new ways of living, working and relating. It is only possible to master your impulses and moods by understanding the secret language of birthdays. That is because the secret language of birthdays has the right explanation to reason out your behavior. Although Gregory seemed to have solved the problem, a snake lurks in the grass for birthday gath­erers, since only those Catholic countries under the influence of Rome (France, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Luxembourg) immediately followed his lead. The Protestant countries (or parts of countries in the case of Holland or Germany) made the change at different timesthereafter. The biggest problem, how­ever, rests with British birthdays, since the British did not go along with the proposal until 1752. Of course, a British old style (OS, Julian) birthday from the seventeenth centwy can be con­ve1ted with certainty to a new style one (NS, Gregorian) by sim­ply adding ten days. However, which birthday should be used for a seventeenth century British figure like John Milton--­December 19 (NS) or December 9 (OS)? And furthermore, what do we do about those figures like George Washington in whose lifetime the changeover took place? Should Washington's birth­day be observed on February 11 (OS) or February 22 (NS)? In the same way that the medieval alchemists taught "As above--so below," the followers of George Gurgieff (such as Rodney Collin in his book, The Theory of Celestial Influence), held that the cyclical revolutions of the electron around the atom (in the micro world of 1x10-10) relate to the revolutions of the planets around the sun (in the macro world of 1x10+10). At each step of the way, from the world of trillions to billions to millions to thousands to tens, or vice-versa, from the very small to the very large, revolves another world, and near the middle, the zero point, lies our world of everyday life. Newton's laws were mainly formulated for this near-zero-point world, but had to be modified as science examined increasingly larger (stellar) or smaller (microscopic) universes.For the sake of clarity, the following rules have been adopted in The Secret Language of Birthdays birthday lists. OS birthdays are used in antiquity, and for those Europeans who died before the changeover took place to NS. Although astrologers disagree with this approach, arguing that April 3, 1421, was really April 12, 1421, it is this book's contention thatthe date of birth should be the one both accepted by govern­ment decree and celebrated by that individual at that time. In the special case of a small number of universal figures and astrologers, such as Nostradamus, who were aware of the dif­ference or seem to have transcended their time, birthdays are given NS. Thus all historical birthdays are for the most part pre­sented as OS until the change from OS to NS took place in that countty. British seventeenth century birthdays are thus OS even though other countries were ten days ahead. urn:lcp:secretlanguageof00gold:epub:fa00b965-f4b2-4182-b12a-1fb751f07038 Extramarc University of Pennsylvania Franklin Library Foldoutcount 0 Identifier secretlanguageof00gold Identifier-ark ark:/13960/t6n01zj9t Isbn 0670858579 The birthdays presented in this book were gathered from many sources. Not infrequently, these sources disagreed about the day of birth of a given individual, and in these cases a consen­sus of five or six sources was sought. In the course of collecting birthdays, one often finds repeated errors due to the same fac­tors, i.e., the day is correct but the month has been incorrectly copied, or perhaps the day itself is noted mistakenly as 8 instead of 18, or 2 instead of 21. Sometimes the death day is given instead of the birthday, or perhaps the researcher has confused two individuals with the same or similar names. In the realm of love and relationships, the concept of birthday compatibility has always held a certain allure. The idea that the day we were born can provide insights into our romantic compatibility with others is both intriguing and exciting. Drawing inspiration from the works of Theresa Cheung and Gary Goldschneider, this article delves into the mystical world of birthday compatibility, exploring the subtle connections that can strengthen or weaken our romantic bonds. The Birthdate Connection Thus, bringing astrology, history and psychology together in concentric cycles or spirals--stressing evolutionary rather than static models for the individual--is at the heart of person­ology. The personality types presented under the twelve signs, forty-eight periods and three hundred and sixty-six days (including the leap year extra clay) are flexible and fluid, each evolving from one to the next, constantly in motion, constantly changing, rather than fixed in stone.

In the enter­tainment field, for example, it was not uncommon for PR per­sons to give out Christmas or July 4 as a birthday in an attempt to make their client more attractive. (Louis Armstrong's is not included in The Secret Language of Birthdays because his birth­day is unknown [yet many works go along with listing it as July 4]. Dante and other notables are also excluded for the same reason.) In fact, one might ask, how do we know what any­body's birthday really is? Although we were all undoubtedly present at our birth, we may have as little idea about what day we were really born on as anyone else. If you are born within June 11th – June 18th, then know how the secret language of birthdays describes your nature. The urge to explore new horizons is felt during the Week of the Seeker, which runs from June 11th through June 18th. It could be beneficial to all of us to use the exploratory energies of this week to invest in the future. By not only making new plans for the upcoming weeks and months, but also beginning to put them into place and get things rolling, we can sow the seeds for a harvest that can be reaped in the fall of this year. This time has traditionally been a most enchanted period, during which spirits of the woodland abound and creatures of the long twilight hours frolic during their so called “midsummer night” revels. Shakespeare’s play “ A Midsummer Night’s Dream” and the music it inspired Mendelssohn to write both convey this magical mood.Putting our nurturing side to good use will be rewarded, particularly in personal and social endeavors where adept use of psychology can bring benefits. Our persuasive abilities flower at this time but must not be used to try to convince others to do what they really do not believe in. If one considers astrology to be heaven-oriented, personologyis earth-oriented. That is, the basic structure upon which per­sonology is built is that of the year as it is lived, and as far as we know has largely been lived here on earth. The rhythms of the year are mostly determined by the changes of the seasons themselves, along with the lengthening and shortening of the days and nights. Each year these solar changes are roughly the same. We are fixed to a wheel of life here on earth, whose motion dictates (in the northern hemisphere) that beginning with the winter solstice, around December 21, the shortest day and longest night, the days will get progressively longer and the nights shorter until the vernal or spring equinox is reached around March 21, at which point day and night willbe equal. We call this season betweensolstice and equinox winter, expecting that only certain plants willgrow, that some animals willsleep or hibernate while others grow a full coat to warm them against the biting winds. As the days grow longer in spring,highly varied forms of lifebegin to emerge culminatingfinally in the heat of the summer,beginning on the longest day of the year,the summer solstice, around June 21. With harvestcomes the fall and again a period of equal day and night (fall equinox, around September 23). Finally the days grow shorter, the sun no longer rises high in the sky, and the world moves inside to prepare for winter once more.

In the same way that the medieval alchemists taught 'As above--so below,' the followers of George Gurdjieff (such as Rodney Collin in his book, The Theory of Celestial Influence), held that the cyclical revolutions of the electron around the atom (in the micro world of 1x10 -10) relate to the revolutions of the planets around the sun (in the macro world of 1x10 +10). At each step of the way, from the world of trillions to billions to millions to thousands to tens, or vice-serda, from the very small to the very large, revolves another world, and near the middle, the zero point, lies our world of everyday life. Newton's laws were mainly formulated for this near-zero-point world, but had to be modified as science examined increasingly larger (stellar) or smaller (microscopic) universes." pg. 9Out of all the books in the three I respect by Goldschneider, I love the Secret Language of Birthdays a little more since it appeals to everyone compared to just a few. Destiny is something everyone pursues but it is a general description given without any details to the person and as for relationships, well relationships are different among everyone and so the general is for a general understanding how two people will mesh.
