Compatibility by life path number: 9 + 8

A meeting of the spiritual and the material. The Eight is focused on success, money, status, and control. The Nine is focused on ideas, charity, and humanitarianism. At first, you are impressed by the strength and confidence of the Eight — they solve problems with a single call while you are still planning to think about them. And the Eight finds your wisdom and that very 'soul' that they often lack in the business world flattering. But the clash of ideologies is inevitable. You might accuse your partner of cynicism and greed when they refuse to sponsor your latest unprofitable idea. The Eight will get furious about your extravagance and inability to monetize your talents. Quarrels will be loud: the Eight asserts authority, while the Nine manipulates feelings of guilt. In bed, it’s a constant struggle for dominance, but it’s that very struggle that excites both: the Eight takes forcefully while you surrender but emotionally manage the process. In business, this could potentially be a billion-dollar partnership, if you don’t end up killing each other: you provide vision, and the Eight turns it into money. The survival rule: never preach morals about money to the Eight; instead, show them how beautifully they can be spent.
