If your birthday is on April 9 

Number nine and Mars make you assertive and authoritative. This allows you to handle unfavourable situations easily. The year promises a happy and serene domestic life, as prosperity reigns. The year starts off with the influence of some female in your career zone. The months before December will bring some relationship trials. While personal changes are necessary and perhaps inevitable, foolish risk-taking and pointless rebellion are not! It will also be a good time for you to establish new friendships and strengthen already existing bonds. This is the time to get back to your roots and cement your connections. Health-wise, the period seems satisfactory. 

Positive colours: Golden and cream. 
Select days: Tuesday and Thursday.
Favourable numbers: 3, 6 and 9.
Gems recommended: Red coral and yellow sapphire.
Charity on birthday: Donate saffron-coloured fruits.

You share your birthday with Jaya Bachchan (April 9, 1948, Jabalpur), wife of Amitabh Bachchan, mom of Abhishek Bachchan, mother-in-law of Aishwarya Rai, who is an actress-turned-politician. Number nine will ensure that politics and films will go side by side for her for a long time.
