Michael Jackson was born August 29, 1958 making his Nine Star Ki 6 Metal, 8 Earth, 7 Metal. Such a person can appear to be larger than life thanks to their qualities of dignity, magnanimity and stylishness, and have the ability to attract the kind of opportunities that result in enormous social appeal.
This is certainly true of Michael who was typical of his number combination in that he was capable of expending tremendous energy in achieving his goals. It also seems true that such people can be rash and sometimes lose their judgment and sense of balance. Another famous 6 8 7 person was Napoleon Bonaparte whose downfall was brought about by his self-belief that he was not subject to the same natural laws as the rest of us.
Michael was at his height of fame in 1982 when Thriller was released. He was then in a 9 Fire year, an ideal time for self-promotion and public visibility, whereas in 2009 he was in a 2 Earth Year and was trying to do too much at a time of limited possibilities. Such a year is good for gathering resources and preparation for future events in the coming years, but he should not have been forging ahead this year with a major comeback.
In June 2009 he was also experiencing a 1 Water month, which is a time when old illness can return, and physical and emotional resources are scarce on the ground. He could hardly have chosen a worse time to be throwing all his energy into a major new project, with daily rehearsals and intense media attention. By planning the upcoming 50 concerts at the O2 arena he was acting in a predicable 6 8 7 fashion – instead of taking time to develop this major project in a timely fashion, he impatiently rushed ahead and thus ruined everything.
Nine Star Ki can also provide some insight in the sex scandal which broke in 1993 when he was in 4 Wood year. The nature of 4 Wood is ambiguity, an emotional state that 6 Metal people find difficult to cope with. They have a naturally rigid sense of everything being black and white, so the unfamiliar inability to make a straight forward explanation of his actions would have challenged the black and white morality of his 6 Metal Nature. He may even have felt that he did not have to provide any explantion of his actions, and so instead of presenting himself to the public with a convincing moral stance he appeared confused and so could not shake off the rumors.
As 6 Metal people find it hard to cope with issues and experiences that challenge their moral compass, the stress of being accused of child molestation may have had a significantly detrimental effect on his mental health, and contributed to his increasingly erratic behaviour and declining reputation. Whereas his intention towards these children was almost certainly altruistic, his sense of self-belief and bad judgement was his undoing.
Yet his achievements also can’t be denied, as he fulfilled the potential of his Nine Star Ki to the max, and like the other 6 8 7 will be remembered as much for what he created, as for the controversy that staked him throughout a remarkable life.
