What it means

Gifts of the Holy Spirit; fruits of the born-again human spirit; innate gifts and potential, like nine months of pregnancy expecting to birth something beautiful.

The Hebrew numeral for 9 is 'tet', a pictogram of a curled serpent — linking it to deception and trickery on the negative side.

✦ When it is positive

  • Gifts of the Holy Spirit
  • Fruits of the Spirit
  • Innate gifts, potential — birthing something beautiful (9 months of pregnancy)

⚠ When it is a warning

  • Judgment, the wrath of God (the 10 plagues on Egypt, with the 10th set apart, leaving 9 — divided into 3 categories: attacking comfort, attacking possessions, bringing death and destruction)
  • Deception, trickery (the Hebrew letter tet, pictograph of a curled serpent)
