In NUMEROLOGY, number 9 (Mangala, is the Mars) like every number is represented by a set of character traits and attributes which are both positive and negative.
I have been researching the significance and position of different numbers in numerology. I have seen that most people have an affinity towards numbers 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6. Everyone wishes to have these numbers assuming they only bring a positive impact in our lives.
In my observation, no number or no planet is bad or good, as they all play their roles in our life, and we need to balance them to make our lives better with simple yet powerful remedies. This should only be practiced should we understand and realize that a particular number is not balanced as per our date of birth.
Unique Traits
Mars (Number 9) is masculine in nature and governs independence. It is the planet associated with heat and fire and has a significant influence on the individual’s drive towards success and ability to carry things to completion. (Read this article until the end and understand how it is directly associated with Vaastu Shastra).
General Characteristics
People born in 9, 18, 27 representing Mangala are generally temperamental, impulsive, independent, and have a desire to be their own masters. Criticism is something they cannot handle well and tend to have a strong and good opinion of themselves. In contrary to their outside appearance, these individuals generally prefer affection and sympathy. Men especially can be made the greatest fools if some clever woman gets pulling at their heartstrings.
Positive Characteristics
When well placed and positive, number 9 (Mangala) helps the immune system and makes an individual master in martial arts, sports, competitions and contests, public speaking, politics, etc. Men will tend to be devoted to their families and will take good care of their parents. A woman will be very caring, hospitable, and friendly, although they can be naturally secretive and selective in your involvement (considering it also rules the sign Scorpio).
Negative Characteristics
Number 9 usually experience many quarrels and strife in their home life, either with their own relations or with the family they marry into. They tend to make people egoistic who put their self-interest above all others. It can also make them very short-tempered, cruel, violent, combative, and restless. These individuals should generally be cautious from accidents, fires, and explosions.

Astrologically
Mangala is a fire-tattva planet and is considered the ‘General’ amongst all the planets and is also the Bramhachari (celibate) planet. It is also one of the malefic planets which presents fights, wars, aggression, and action. In general, Mangal in Upachaya houses is considered very good though it is important to understand the strength and the state of Mangala in the natal’s horoscope before arriving at any conclusion.
Lordship
Mangala rules the natural first-house Meesha (Aries) and co-lords the natural eight-house Vrishika (Scorpio). It is interesting to see how Mangala clearly shows in the zodiac that it controls your intelligence (head and the first-house) which means the clear drive is very important to succeed followed by the eight houses of transformation. Whereby to evolve and grow a constant transformation is extremely important. Both the tattva clearly denotes the type of aggression one can have (Meesha – Aggressive) and (Vrishika – Passive-Aggressive).
Exaltation
Mangala gets exalted in the natural tenth house of Makara (Capricorn). The tenth house signifies karma which also means action and Mangala represents your ability to act in a situation. The tenth house is also where Mangala received digbala in a horoscope hence the entire concept of doing work, karma, and action is clearly denoted with Mangala.
Debilitation
Mangala gets into debility in the natural fourth house of Karka (Cancer). Cancer is a sign of home, love, care, nourishment. Mangala being the planet for action finds the concept of being home and being in a comfortable and pampered experience very difficult. It also clearly highlights the fact that Mangala in the fourth house in any horoscope creates complete turmoil in the home environment of the individual.
As per VASTU SHASTRA, Mangala rules the South direction.
It is the direction that represents the ability to do work, the metabolism within the body, and the discipline of the home or the place where the direction is being considered.
Fire is the element of this direction.
Should there be an imbalance either due to the lack of fire element then additional fire elements using colors should be added.
Should the be an imbalance due to the excess of the fire element, then the Earth element should be introduced to balance the direction.
General Health
You are prone to all kinds of fever, infections, cut, and wounds that produce infectious diseases.
You may also fall prey to disorders of the blood, poisoning ulcers, tuberculosis, etc.
You are also susceptible to psychic disturbance, exhaustion due to overindulgence in sex, weakness in immune systems, etc.
Remedies
You should avoid oily, spicy foods as far as possible.
You should not indulge in any substance abuse or alcohol.
You should take a drink of mashed dates boiled in milk adding a pinch of saffron.
You should massage your body with oil and take a morning walk every day.
Putting a drop or two of oil in your ears and drinking water through the nose occasionally will ease ear and nose problems.
Conclusion
Looking at the traits of Mangala it is essential to understand that it not only has a negative impact that people keep talking about but has different approaches but excel is what they do because they are very passionate and aggressive (including passive aggression) in whatever they do.
