9’s are always seeking a world where everyone is in harmony. Their mantra is, “Is it too much to expext for people to live in peace and harmony? Stop trying to control and manipulate. Live in a better world!” They want to know why we don’t have it and whose to blame for that. They are seekers, obsessive peacemakers, meditations, and over non-conformists. They see all sides and have very little energy. Their mantra is “Let people be” and wish everything was balanced but can also get carried away with their ideals and try to impose their models on others.
They can’t make up their minds and are couch potatoes.
Key Word(s):
Indolence.
Ideals:
Ideal: Detachment
Offense: Correcting Injustice
Talking Style:
Stories that go on and on, rambles, saga, monotone.
Negative Emotion/Passions:
Laziness – They feel as if there’s no reason to engage in anything.
Under Stress And Intimacy:
They become 3’s under intimacy. They can go and run marathons they never thought possible before. They may have a deceitful presentation of their personality that begins to erode.
They become 6’s under stress. They become paranoid, confused, and indecisive.
How To Notice One:
They’re slow, perceived as lazy, and can be monotone.

Sensuality

Social Mode/Conservation Mode/Syntony Mode – How this type acts under each sub-type (each person has ONE sub-type):
Social: Participation – Doesn’t move and has a need for participation.
Conservation: Appetite – What should they satisfy to get off the couch?
Syntony: Union – need for love of another for one’s own identity.
Divine Ideas/Solution:
Divine Love – 9’s seek for someone to love them so they can be loveable. Realize you’re both loved and loveable already. Accept and realize God and the universe loves you and live within that. Don’t worry about humans – though the irony is they will love you when you get support via God.
One-Word Mantra:
Experience Of The Ultimate Ground
Virtues (Use these to decrease or eliminate the negative emotions):
Action – 9’s are always out there but not out there. The anecdote is action – by taking action to break the strangehold of indolence and laziness, they neutralize it and overcome it. 9’s don’t need to be in action all the time but they must have some in order to break the strangehold.
How To Stroke Them & How To Poke Them
Stroke: Listen to them for a change. Take time to listen. Support their assertions of self-love. Make them feel important and on center stage. Try to encourage them, make them feel important and like they’re contributing.
Poke: Constantly have conflict around them, don’t give them a moment’s rest, make them uncomfortable.
Business Applications – The Best Jobs For Them
Positives: Meditators, judges, diplomats, accountants (they’re good at details and thoroughness)
Not So Positives: Fast paced, rapidly changing environments that downplay communication.
In Teams:
9’s are just there. They can serve as meditators perhaps but won’t do anything on their own.
Examples Of Type:
Prince Charles, Reagan, Jimmy Carter, Ringo Starr, Nancy Kerrigan, Seinfeld
