Numbers

There's a bunch of stuff in life - in the universe - that can't be easily explained. (Ugh, my relationship is one of those things!).

Anyway, I find things like numerology, astrology, and all those sorts of things, really interesting. Obviously, they're mostly made up of broad definitions of various things (personality, intelligence, wealth potential etc), based on a specific set of criteria (birth date, birth time, hemisphere etc).

Taken on their own or taken in completely literal terms, the ideas can be debased, or proven 'false'. However, when you take a walk back in time and consider that people determined times, dates, tides, weather patterns and the like by using the sun and the stars, you have to agree to the possibility that perhaps there is some credence to it all, and it's not just a very easy money making exercise for dubious people who feed off the naive (or those who are simply looking for something to 'believe in').

Of course, there are those stereotypical types who do scam. That's the case with most things in life - there's something thinking up a new scam every day - but it seems more plausible that most people offering astrology/numerology services, would be scammers, because the majority of people just don't have the depth of knowledge or understanding of those topics to have the ability to adequately judge whether they're being scammed or not.

I personally, do think that there is some degree of accuracy in numerology/astrology/psychic ability and the like. I don't think one should centre their whole life around a reading or interpretation, but I do think some consideration, as a source of information on which to base your own interpretations, is reasonable.

My house with C is a number 6.

Six relates to tact, beauty and harmony. It is very much a relationship builder which corresponds to one-to-one encounters. It deals with that which we are attracted to and those things we find great pleasure in. Six possesses charm, grace and the ability to make small talk on any stratum, and is therefore much of a diplomat. Six is very nurturing, and is considered the mother/father number. It is considered to be a minor money number, so a little extra income will be available wherever this number is found. Negatively, six can be unfaithful, jealous, bitter and vengeful. Six can also denote perfectionism, as it is the first "perfect" number, in that the sum of its divisors, other than itself, is equal to itself: 6 X 1 = 6 and 3 X 2 = 6, and 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 (the next such number is 28).

Upon reflection, 6 sums up the way our relationship unfolded. Started out with perfect harmony and ended up bitter and vengeful.

My new house is a 7. (1 + 1 + 5)
7 is also my personal number.

Seven is considered to be a spiritual number because it is illusive and contains veils which must first be uncovered, one after another, before illumination will ultimately be found. Seven is said to be sacred, and this is evidenced by the fact that there are seven days in the week, ancient texts such as Genesis propose that the earth was formed in seven phases, the ancient solar system consisted of seven luminaries, and some versions of the Kabbalah have seven sephiroth. While seven possesses qualities of dreaminess, spirituality and psychic awareness, negatively it can be dubious, deceptive and insincere.

7 sums me up pretty well, although I'm not often insincere, because I can't hide my feelings that well.

Interestingly, here's what my lettters in my name say about me...

E is the second vowel in the alphabet and is the numerical equivalent of 5. It is a friendly number which is warm hearted, loving and compassionate. When it is the first vowel in a name the bearer is freedom loving and charming. Negatively, E can be unreliable and unstable.

V is the numerical equivalent of 4 and represents construction. It is an industrial letter which is tireless and efficient. Negatively, V can be unpredictable.

And just for your amusement, here's C's....

C is the numerical equivalent of 3 and represents energy. It is particularly good humoured and gets along well with others. Negatively, C can be unscrupulous and inattentive to the needs of others.

H is the numerical equivalent of 8 and represents creativity and power. This letter has a great deal of business acumen and will therefore find profits through most endeavours. When it is the first consonant of a name the bearer is likely to be successful in business. Negatively, it can be self absorbed and selfish.

R is the numerical equivalent of 9 and represents possibilities. It is tolerant and humane but has a tendency to become short tempered. When it is the first consonant in a name the bearer will often act as peacemaker.

I is the third vowel of the alphabet and is the numerical equivalent of 9. It represents law and as a general rule is sensitive, compassionate and humane. Negatively, I can lack self confidence and is quick to anger.

S is the numerical equivalent of 1 and represents beginnings. It has very attractive attributes and instils wealth. Negatively, S can act impulsively and cause massive upheavals to occur.

And I got all that from here.
