First of all Shining Ray, I have to tell you how much I love your avatar! It makes me smile every time I see it. Here's a quote from B.H.Clow about this one.
"Chiron in the Ninth House -
"Chiron's presence in the ninth house signifies the crisis of connecting with the higher self in this incarnation. The higher self is the wisdom energy that is the integrating spiritual force of each lifetime. Some call it soul. Each individual lifetime is a journey of ensoulment, of activating, embodying, and radiating out of the higher self. These natives are naturally interested in philosophy and spirituality. Often they also teach these values. They understand the natural law intuitively, and they possess an unusual ability to find ways to express essential universal values. They nervously search for meaning; they tend to feel driven to know ultimate truths and convey them to others. They love to travel and experience the energy of temples and spiritual centers on the planet. But have they connected with the higher self and learned to embody the higher self in everyday life?
Chiron is pragmatism, the how-to principle in the chart, and because Chiron is experiential, careful probing will reveal what is going on with Chirotic energy in the ninth. Like the third house natives, ninth house natives appear to be the adept. They naturally embody spirituality, wisdom about the natural law, but their crisis is always over resonation with the higher self. The astrologer who can help them look at their level of connection with the higher self has the opportunity to guide them with their most closely held secret - that they actually are not in touch with the higher self themselves. This is the adept who teaches everyone else to know the soul, who longs intensely for ensoulment. Meditation connecting the higher self and work with body healers who can help bring in the God force is highly recommended. The Sabian symbol for the ascendant is a reading of the higher self, since we have the same ascendant degree in each incarnation. Special work counseling your clients with Chiron in the ninth to resonate with the ascendant energy will help them find the higher self....."
That was from Barbara Hand Clow's
Chiron - Rainbow Bridge between the Inner and Outer Planets. I hope it
resonated 
with you. Being in Taurus I'd suspect that being consciously aware of 'Goddess' energy will also quickly connect you with your higher self far more than those old traditional 9th house sort of belief systems and philosophys etc.
