The Number 1

The Number 1 vibrates to the Sun. It represents creativity, protection, and benevolence. 1 is the number of original action, the initiating basis of all other numbers. A person or entity is influenced by the Number 1 if born on the 1st, 10th, 19th, or 28th day of any month in any year. People or entities born on the 1st are stamped with the distinctive imprint of the Number 1. So are those born on the 10th, 19th, or 28th day of the month, but these will, in addition, be challenged to unlock the karmic mystery of the Compound number -10, 19, or 28, as the case may be - in their lives. The same is true of the Single and Compound number of the name of the person or entity being analysed. The Number 1 attitudes and characteristics will be periodically exhibited by the 1 person or entity, and will interact with that person's or entity's personality in different ways, depending on the individual Sun Sign. When the Sun Sign is: LEO: The 1 vibration intensifies the Sun Sign personality traits. AQUARIUS: The 1 vibration sometimes opposes the Sun Sign motives, but, with effort, can be used to balance the Sun Sign nature. ARIES, SAGITTARIUS, GEMINI, LIBRA: The 1 vibration harmonises well with the Sun Sign character, motives, and personality patterns. SCORPIO, TAURUS, VIRGO, CANCER, PISCES, CAPRICORN: The 1 vibration is in sharp contrast with the basic Sun Sign instincts. When it surfaces on occasion in the personality, the behaviour is so unusual, relative to the person's or entity's normal or natural Sun Sign attitudes; it startles others, and often surprises the Number 1 person as well. The Meaning of the 1 Vibration The following definition of Number 1 applies to both people and entities. 1 people possess a strong sense of self-worth, and a marked dislike for criticism. A 1 person demands - and usually gets - respect; will insist on organizing and controlling everything and everyone around. The underlying desire is to be inventive, creative, and strongly original. These people are quite definite in their views, and can be stubborn when thwarted. They dislike restraint, and must feel free. They'll almost always rise to some position of authority in whatever they undertake. Otherwise, they'll pout in the comer, nursing a bruised ego and frustrated ambitions. They insist on being looked up to by the mate, friends, relatives, co-workers - and even by the boss! They'll protect the weak, defend the helpless, and take on the burdens of others as long as "the others" will do exactly as the Number 1 person dictates. They know everything better than anyone else, and consider their opinions to be superior, if not flawless. The great majority of the time they are right, which understandably annoys the people they lecture. They're strong on lectures ...But 1 people are also unbelievably susceptible to compliments (sincere, not phoney, and they can detect the difference). Genuine appreciation will get them to bend over backward to please. Pride is their weakest point. When the pride is wounded, 1 people lose all their virtues and become most unpleasant. When they're appreciated and respected, no one can be more generous and benevolent. But they can be dangerous when ignored. Being in love and being loved is as vital a necessity to them as the very air they breathe. Although the disposition is easily wounded, enemies are quickly forgiven after they bow down and apologize. The only way to win a confrontation with ill 1 person is to be humble, say you're truly sorry, and you'll be graciously excused. The Number 1 person resents familiarity from strangers, but is extremely warm and affectionate with those who are loved and trusted. There's it fondness for children and young people, but often some sadness connected with a child. The 1 person enjoys fine clothes and jewels, impressive cars. Even a cloistered monk with a 1 vibration will keep his robe mended, and the cord around the waist will not be tom or tattered. All Number 1 people are blessed with a visible inbred sense of dignity.

The Number 2
The Number 2 vibrates to the Moon. It represents imagination, parenthood, and sensitivity. 2 is the number of conception, childbirth, and dreams. A person or entity is influenced by the Number 2 if born on the 2nd, 11th, 20th, or 29th day of any month, in any year. People or entities born on the 2nd are stamped with the distinct imprint of the Number 2 ...So are those born on the 11th, 20th, or 29th day of the month, but these will, in addition, be challenged to unlock the karmic mystery of the Compound number - 11 20 or 29, as the case may be - in their lives. The same is true of the Single and Compound number of the name of the person or entity being analysed. The Number 2 attitudes and characteristics will be periodically exhibited by the 2 person or entity, and will interact with that person's or entity's personality in different ways, depending on the individual Sun Sign. When the Sun Sign is: CANCER: The 2 vibration intensifies the Sun Sign personality traits, CAPRICORN: The 2 vibration sometimes opposes the Sun Sign motives, but, with effort, can be used to balance the Sun Sign nature. SCORPIO, PISCES, VIRGO, TAURUS: The 2 vibration harmonizes well with the Sun Sign character, motives, and personality patterns. ARIES. LIBRA, GEMINI, SAGITTARIUS, AQUARIUS, LEO: The 2 vibration is in sharp contrast with the basic Sun Signs instincts. When it surfaces on occasion in the personality, the behaviour is so unusual, relative to the person's or entity's normal or natural Sun Sign attitudes; it startles others, and often surprises the Number 2 person as well.

The Meaning of the 2 Vibration The following definition of Number 2 applies to both people and entities, 2 people are dreamers, with a tendency to fear the unknown or the unfamiliar. They are extremely imaginative and inventive, but not always as forceful as could be in carrying out their plans and ideas. Not all, but most 2 people are seldom as strong as those born under the single birth numbers of 1, 9,3, or 6. These people possess a very romantic nature, and are secretly what is called "psychic." The intuition is highly developed. One of the traits for 2 people to guard against is "fearing shadows of fears." A 2 person fears every conceivable kind of loss: loss of love, property, money, friendship, employment - loss of loved ones through death or any other kind of separation. These people need a home base, and although they adore to travel the globe as frequently as finances permit, they must have a home to return to. In no way can a 2 person be a "soldier of fortune," to whom home is where you hang your hat. They are fanatically devoted to or involved with (in either a negative or positive sense) the parents, especially the Mother. They make ideal parents themselves, but they must be careful not to smother their children with possessive love. This is the "chicken soup" vibration, since all 2 people are ultra concerned with the well-being of friend and relatives. They hover over everyone, making sure they don't catch cold, throw money away foolishly, and so forth. "Have some hot chicken soup and wear your boots or you'll catch your death of pneumonia." 2 people are extremely cautious, and dislike gambling or taking chances. They love money, but like to accumulate it in a safe, stable way, then invest it securely, so it can increase through dividends and interest. The 2 vibration is secretive, and never lets anyone know what the next move might be. They're experts at wheedling secrets from others, but they won't allow you to invade their own privacy. They'll veer from right to left and backward, and then lunge forward in a surprisingly aggressive manner toward their goals. Money seems to stick to them like glue, so you'll almost never find a 2 person (or an 8 person) on public welfare or food stamps. These people are charitable (especially with family), and are prone to heading charity drives, but it chills them to even think about accepting charity themselves. It insinuates a failure to protect their assets, which is a cardinal sin to the 2 vibration. When 2 people learn to overcome fear, possessiveness, and unnecessary caution, their imagination, adaptability, and intuition can carry them to the fulfilment of all their many dreams

The Number 3 vibrates to the planet Jupiter. It represents idealism, higher education, foreign travel, and religion. 3 is the number of optimism, movement, expansion - and the Holy Trinity of the body, mind, and spirit. A person or entity is influenced by the Number 3 if born on the 3rd, 12th, 21st, or 30th day of any month in any year. People or entities born on the 3rd are stamped with the distinctive imprint of the Number 3. So are those born on the 12th, 21st, and 30th day of the month, but these will, in addition, be challenged to unlock the karmic mystery of the Compound number -12, 21, or 30, as the case may be - in their lives. The same is true of the Single and Compound number of the name of the person or entity being analysed. The Number 3 attitudes and characteristics will be periodically exhibited by the 3 person or entity, and will interact with that person's or entity's personality in different ways, depending on the individual Sun Sign. When the Sun Sign is: SAGITTARIUS: The 3 vibration intensifies the Sun Sign personality traits. GEMINI: The 3 vibration sometimes opposes the Sun Sign motives, but, with effort, can be used to balance the Sun Sign nature. ARIES, LEO, AQUARIUS, LIBRA: The 3 vibration harmonizes well with the Sun Sign character, motives, and personality patterns. PISCES, VIRGO, CAPRICORN, SCORPIO, TAURUS, CANCER: The 3 vibration is in sharp contrast with the basic Sun Sign instincts. When it surfaces on occasion in the personality, the behaviour is so unusual, relative to the person's or entitys normal or natural Sun Sign attitudes; it startles others, and often surprises the Number 3 person as well. The Meaning of the 3 Vibration The following definition of Number 3 applies to both people and entities, 3 people base every action (even when they are misguided and the action is a negative one) upon the foundation of a great ideal. They aim high for truth and nothing less than truth will satisfy them, whether they seek the truth of a love affair, a friendship, a career, politics or religion. They are not easily put off by evasive answers or deception, and they can spot a lie, a distortion, or dishonesty a mile away. Some of them achieve the goal of truth, others are misled into believing their own illusions, but they never stop searching. The 3 vibration is fiercely independent, seeks total freedom of speech and movement, and cannot be tied down. Travel is an absolute necessity, mingling with others and seeing the world, learning everything there is to know about every country and its people, every intellectual concept, every philosophy. They tend to look at the bright side of everything, and their optimism is contagious. Even Capricorns with 3 as the birth number will shock themselves with these occasional bursts of sheer Pollyanna optimism. Because of the shining quest for truth, the 3 person is either an agnostic an atheist, or intensely devoted to a religious principle, i.e.: nuns, ministers, monks, rabbis, and priests. Religion is an important part of the life of a 3 person or entity, whether religion is fervently, fanatically accepted or bitterly rejected. The attitude is never neutral. Physical challenge inspires the 3 people or entities; therefore sports plays major role. The 3 vibration is shockingly blunt of speech, candid to a fault, and outraged at duplicity of any kind. There's a genuine love for animals and a strong tendency to defend the underdog human with the same loyalty they show to their dogs, horses, and other pets. There's a marked indifference to family ties, and marriage works only when freedom is total. The 3 vibration is associated with tests of physical strength, gambling, and taking a chance, whether at the casinos or on the floor of the stock market. The 3 person or entity will take a chance or bet on just about anything. Their bubbling optimism is delightfully contagious. 3 people or entities often display an odd blend of the wise philosopher and the happy-go-lucky clown, and a sense of responsibility is sometimes lacking. Some of the goals, dreams, and ambitions are serious; others are silly and frivolous. Pursuing an education matters a great deal to 3 people, and they are crushed when they're denied the halls of higher learning

The Number 3

for whatever reason They make excellent "armchair lawyers" or professional attorneys, since the Planet Jupiter, represented by 3, rules the law.

The Number 4 vibrates to the planet Uranus. It represents individualism, originality, inventiveness, and tolerance. 4 is the number of unconventional behaviour and sudden, unexpected events - also of genius. A person or entity is influenced by the Number 4 if born on the 4th, 13th, 22nd, or 31st day of any month, in any year. People or entities born on the 4th are stamped with the distinctive imprint of the Number 4. So are those born on the 13th, 22nd, or 31st day of the month, but these will, in addition, be challenged to unlock the karmic mystery of the Compound number - 13 22, or 31, as the case may be - in their lives. The same is true of the Single and Compound number of the name of the person or entity being analysed. The Number 4 attitudes and characteristics will be periodically exhibited by the 4 person or entity, and will interact with that person's or entity's personality in different ways, depending on the individual Sun Sign. When the Sun Sign is: AQUARIUS: The" vibration intensifies the Sun personality traits. LEO: The 4 vibration sometimes opposes the Sun Sign motives, but, with effort, can be used to balance the Sun Sign nature. GEMINI, LIBRA, ARIES, SAGITTARIUS: The" vibration harmonizes well with the Sun Sign character, motives, and personality patterns. SCORPIO, TAURUS, CANCER, VIRGO, CAPRICORN, PISCES: The" vibration is in sharp contrast with the basic Sun Sign instincts. When it surfaces on occasion in the personality, the behaviour is so unusual, relative to the person's or entity's normal or natural Sun Sign attitudes, it startles others, and often surprises the Number" person as well. The Meaning of the 4 Vibration The following definition of Number 4 applies to both people and entities. 4 people are seldom understood by their friends and family. They're an enigma to everyone they know. They make their own rules, and these rules don't always match those of society. Marked individuality colours every thought and action. If there's a different way to do anything, the 4 person will find it. Their speech and actions frequently shock others, and it often seems the attempt to shock is deliberate. It is. 4 people live in the future, caring little about the present. They're light years ahead of others in their ideas and ideals. Going along with this trait is an innate talent for prophecy, for knowing what will happen tomorrow long before tomorrow arrives. Their life-style ranges from unconventional to the bizarre, yet their "crazy" ideas are successful more often than not. Anything far out or off the beaten path appeals strongly to the" person's questing, curious nature. For example, a 4 person with a well-aspected) Jupiter in the natal horoscope has an excellent chance to be the first person to tame and make friends with Sasquatch or Bigfoot - or locate and swim along with Nessie, the Loch Ness monster. If the 4 person also has a Scorpio Sun or Moon, the discovery, if attempted, is almost certain to be successful. That's because such incredible, unproven, and so-called unscientific theories never deter, but instead excite the" person, who is deeply convinced of the reality of whatever can be conceived in the mind. To be told that a thing is impossible only intensifies and spurs the 4 person's resolve to prove it is possible. The phrase "mission impossible" rings the great bells of mental challenge in the very soul of a 4 person. Although the 4 vibration advocates change in every area of life, from politics to art, these people are strangely reluctant to accept change in their personal habits, which remain rather fixed. They can be quite stubborn when people try to dictate to them or try to mould them into a more acceptable social pattern. Because prophets are often unrecognised in their own time, and because 4 people live far into the future, their grandest and truest visions are often ridiculed or ignored. They're fascinated by U.F.O.s, and their secret wish is to be contacted and taken aboard, hopefully not to return to the chaos of Earth. Reform movements like Women's Liberation and Equal Rights for Minorities attract the 4 people, who are genuinely dedicated to tolerance and brotherhood (and sisterhood). Friendship is vital to the" vibration, and these people - not always, but usually have bushels of friends from all walks of life. Money means little to them; they're as likely to mix with Kings as with paupers they care nothing about class distinction, have no desire to impress anyone, and would just as soon live in a van, a tent, or a sleeping bag as in a mansion. It's not that they're prejudiced against comfort or wealth, it's because they simply don't notice their surroundings. They live in their imaginations. One of their finest virtues is the tendency to "live and let live." The" person doesn't give a ginger snap what you do or say, however outrageous or against his or her own principles - and expects you to return the same consideration. (NB please refer to end of document for 4 and 8 the numbers of Fate and Destiny)

The Number 4

The Number 5
The number S vibrates to the planet Mercury. It represents communication, movement, and versatility. It's the number of the intellect and both written and oral expression: A person or entity is influenced by the number 5 if born on the 5th, 14th, or 23rd day of any month in any year. People born on the 5th are stamped with the distinctive imprint of the number 5. So are those born on the 14th or 23rd day of the month, but these will, in addition, be challenged to unlock the karmic mystery of the Compound number of If or 23, as the case may be, in their lives. The same is true of the Single and Compound number of the name of the person or entity being analysed. The number 5 attitudes and characteristics will periodically be exhibited by the 5 person or entity, and will interact with that person's personality in different ways, depending on the individual Sun Sign. When the Sun Sign is: GEMINI, VIRGO: The 5 vibration intensifies the Sun Sign personality traits, and gives the ability to create magical changes in the appearance and behaviour. SAGITTARIUS, PISCES: The 5 vibration sometimes opposes the Sun Sign motives, but, with effort, can be used to balance the Sun Sign nature. ARIES, TAURUS, CANCER, LEO, LIBRA, SCORPIO, CAPRlCORN, AQUARIUS: The 5 vibration, due to its peculiar mingling power, either harmonizes with or sharply contrasts with the 5 person's Sun Sign characteristics, depending on the mood of the moment. The nature of the 5 is endlessly changeable and adaptable, bringing a curious tendency to be in harmony with one's self when one wishes, and at odds with one's self at other times. It's never easy to know a 5 person. The dreams change like quicksilver.

When 5 is the single number of either the birth or the name of a Virgo or Gemini, the mercurial qualities are even more pronounced. The Meaning of the 5 Vibration The following definition of Number 5 applies to both people and entities. 5 people possess a great deal of natural charm, and, as a general rule. are innately courteous. They're quick to spot mistakes and flaws, and will not hesitate to point them out when they see them. The 5 vibration is supercritical and incapable of ignoring mistakes (their own, as well as those of others) and it's associated with a love for movement and travel. Change is a never-ending necessity for 5 people. Change of scene, change in relationships, residence, spiritual and political beliefs, and so on. There's a strong tendency to overanalyse people and situations. It's difficult for a 5 person to submit to the feelings and the intuition; the intellect is determined to find logical answers. This obsession with analysis can ruin personal relationships for those who allow themselves to be ruled by the 5 vibration. Even love can wear out under such continual (and usually unnecessary) scrutiny. Love is made of instinct and feelings, not logic. 5 people tend to "talk love to death" instead of just letting it be, allowing it to become part of them, without questioning its whys and wherefores. Love has nothing to do with logic. Most people enjoy being in the company of a 5 person, since the outward persona is unusually pleasant and soothing. Because 5 is the vibration of intellect, those under its influence are extremely bright, of higher than average intelligence, and mentally alert. Nothing escapes their notice. They seem to be fine-tuned to the smallest detail. When financial or other circumstances don't permit the frequent travel all 5 people need, they'll travel in their minds, and since their minds are so acute, their "daydreams" are vivid enough to satisfy the restless urges within them for a time, at least. According to the ancients, the number 5 has an association with what is called "earth-magic." Curiously, the number 5 brings a longing to believe in magic, elves, faeries, and mysteries of Nature, along with a need to pin everything down and view it under a mental microscope, two qualities which are in direct polarity to one another, causing those under the influence of 5 to find it difficult to understand themselves. 5 people are sometimes high strung; they. live on their nerves, and crave excitement. They're quick in thought and decision, often impulsive in their actions. They have a keen sense of new ideas and inventions, are willing to take risks, and are born speculators. Writing, advertising, public relations, and publishing are fortunate 5 occupations. 5 people possess an admirable elasticity of viewpoint, and the ability to rebound swiftly from blows of fate, which seem to leave no long-lasting impression on them.

The Number 6 vibrates to the planet Venus. It represents the feminine essence, compassion, and (until Venus gives up her rulership of Taurus when the planet Pan-Horus is discovered) also money. 6 is the number of love and romance. A person or an entity is influenced by the Number 6 if born on the 6th, 15th, or 24th day of any month, in any year. People or entities born on the 6th are stamped with the distinct imprint of the Number 6. So are those born on the 15th and 24th day of the month, but these will, in addition, be challenged to unlock the karmic mystery of the Compound number - 15 or 24 - as the case may be - in their lives. The same is true of the Single and Compound number of the name of the person or entity being analysed. The Number 6 attitudes and characteristics will be periodically exhibited by the 6 person or entity, and will interact with that person's or entity's personality in different ways, depending on the individual Sun Sign. When the Sun Sign is: AQUARIUS, TAURUS, LIBRA: The 6 vibration intensifies the Sun Sign personality traits. SCORPIO, ARIES: The 6 vibration sometimes opposes the Sun Sign motives, but, with effort, can be used to balance the Sun Sign nature. ANY OTHER SIGN: The 6 vibration will, at times, harmonize with the Sun Sign character and personality patterns, and at other times, contrast sharply with them. At the latter times, the behaviour is so unusual, relative to the normal behaviour, it startles others, and often surprises the Number 6 person as well The Meaning of the 6 Vibration The following definition of Number 6 applies to both people and entities. 6 people seem to magnetically attract others to them. They're genuinely loved by their friends and associates - and when they become attached themselves, they're devoted to the loved one. There's more idealism and affection than sensualism in the love nature. These people are born romantics with a strong sentimental streak, no matter how they deny it or try to hide it. The 6 vibration brings a love of art and a deep affinity for music. These people love nice homes and tasteful furnishings, pastel colours, and harmony in their surroundings. They love to entertain their friends and to make people happy, and they simply cannot abide discord, arguments, unpleasantness, or jealousy - although they can display intense jealousy themselves if they're threatened with the possible loss of someone (or something) they love. The 6 vibration makes friends easily, and they tend to enjoy settling disputes between their friends, business associates, and relatives, at which times they appear to be as peaceful and as docile as lambs - until their stubborn side surfaces; then they don't seem quite so sweet ! Money often comes to them without effort, sometimes through their own talents and abilities, sometimes through inheritance or through wealthy friends or relatives. But they're warned to watch for a tendency toward the extremes of extravagance and stinginess. There's seldom a neutral attitude toward finances. It's either one or the other, taking turns in the nature. The love of beauty of all kinds in every area of life is pronounced. Most 6 people are deeply attached to Nature in some way, and love spending time in the country, near the silent woods and singing streams, which has a tranquillising effect on their emotions. A fondness for luxury marks the 6 vibration. Ugliness is extremely offensive to them. They admire the tasteful and shrink from loudness and vulgarity. Their manners are, as a general rule, impeccable, and in their associations with others they are usually polite. However, when they feel strongly about anything, they won't hesitate to make their opinions known. They're fond of discussing and debating politics and other matters, and they usually win, because of their logic ... and their irresistible smiles.

The Number 6

The Number 7
The Number 7 vibrates to the planet Neptune. It represents spirituality, sensitivity, sympathy, and mystery. 7 is the number of illusion and delusion, sometimes deception - but also the number of healing and miracles, faith and dreams that come true.

A person or entity is influenced by the number 7 if born on the 7th, 16th, or 25th day of any month, in any year. People or entities born on the 7th are stamped with the distinctive imprint of the Number 7. So are those born on the 16th or 25th day of the month, but these will, in addition, be challenged to unlock the karmic mystery of the Compound number - 16 or 25, as the case may be - in their lives. The same is true of the Single and Compound number of the name of the person or entity being analysed. The Number 7 attitudes and characteristics will be periodically exhibited by the 7 person or entity, and will interact with that person's or entity's personality in different ways, depending on the individual Sun Sign. When the Sun Sign is: PISCES: The 7 vibration intensifies the Sun Sign personality traits. VIRGO: The 7 vibration sometimes opposes the Sun Sign motives, bur, with effort can be used to balance the Sun Sign nature. SCORPIO, CANCER, CAPRICORN, TAURUS: The 7 vibration harmonizes well with the Sun Sign character, motives, and personality patterns. GEMINI, SAGITTARIUS, AQUARIUS, ARIES, LIBRA, LEO: The 7 vibration is in sharp contrast with the basic Sun Sign instincts. When it surfaces on occasion in the personality, the behaviour is so unusual, relative to the person's or entity's normal or natural Sun Sign attitudes, it startles others, and often surprises the Number 7 person as well. The Meaning of the 7 Vibration The following definition of Number 7 applies to both people and entities. 7 people tend to have remarkable dreams. Sometimes they talk about them and sometimes they keep them to themselves. But they do dream more than most. Secretly, they have an intense interest in esoteric mysteries, mythology, spacecraft or U.F.O.s ... and the entire forest of the unknown. They often possess the gifts of intuition and clairvoyance: and a certain quieting, calming magnetism, which has a great influence over others. Often, their mere presence has a soothing effect on a troubled person. The 7 vibration is associated with peculiar ideas about religion, a dislike of following the beaten path, and a tendency to adopt political beliefs, which are unique and somewhat non-orthodox. It's not unusual for a 7 person to discover, found, or believe in a new religious concept. The 7 person will either travel extensively at some time in the life or else read avidly books about foreign people and faraway lands. Many people influenced by the 7 vibration are strongly attracted to the sea and at some time are associated with sailing, water sports, or the Navy. There's a tendency to be anxious about the future, which is why 7 people need to know they have a rock of financial security somewhere in the background, lest the waters of fate sweep them away. Yet, they care little about material possessions or accumulating great wealth. 7 people can earn large sums of money through their original ideas, but they're likely to make substantial contributions to charities or institutions. When they gravitate toward the arts, they make fine dancers, singers, poets, writers, actors, or actresses. In their own quiet, laid-back way, people influenced by the Number 7 have ambitions they don't discuss with others, and these are always tinged with a philosophical outlook. They bless others with the grace of their sympathetic understanding of pain and suffering, which is why friends, relatives, and business associates unburden their troubles to the 7 person. There's a strong leaning toward privacy in the 7 vibration, and these people prefer to keep their own problems to themselves. They shrink from prying questions, and have a horror of "big brother" or anything they consider to be an invasion of their privacy. Refined manners, an artistic temperament, and a sensitive nature make up the 7 essence, and don't let these people fool you with their sometimes taciturn nature ... you'd be surprised if you knew all the strange thoughts that swim through their minds when they're communing with themselves. If you can coax them to talk about what they're thinking, you'll not only be surprised, you'll be fascinated when you learn the secrets of their Neptunian world. But the 7 person must find you trustworthy before he or she shares these "inner streams of contemplation ... and you'll have to earn that trust by proving you're not judgmental or prejudiced. 7 people are rarely either.

The Number 8 vibrates to the planet Saturn. It represents wisdom, learning through experience, stability, patience, and responsibility. 8 is also the number of financial security, caution, restriction, self-discipline and self-control. A person or entity is influenced by the Number 8 if born on the 8th, 17th, or 26th day of any month, in any year. People or entities born on the 8th are stamped with the distinct imprint of the Number 8. So are those born on the 17th or 26th day of the month, but these will, in addition, be challenged to unlock the karmic mystery of the Compound number 17 or 26, as the case may be, in their lives. The same is true of the Single and Compound number of the name of the person or entity being analysed. The Number 8 characteristics and attitudes will be periodically exhibited by the 8 person or entity, and will interact with that person's or entity's personality in different ways, depending on the individual Sun Sign. When the Sun Sign is: CAPRICORN: The 8 vibration intensifies the Sun Sign personality traits. CANCER: The 8 vibration sometimes opposes the Sun Sign motives, but with effort, can be used to balance the Sun Sign nature. PISCES, SCORPIO, VIRGO, TAURUS: The 8 vibration harmonises well with the Sun Sign character, motives and personality patterns. ARIES, UBRA GEMINI, LEO, SAGITTARIUS, AQUARIUS: The 8 vibration is in sharp contrast with the basic Sun Sign instincts. When it surfaces on occasion in the personality, the behaviour is so unusual, relative to the person's normal Sun Sign attitudes, it startles others, and often surprises the Number 8 person as well. The Meaning of the 8 Vibration The following definition of the Number 8 applies to both people and entities. 8 people are normally quiet, reserved, and shy. They don't obviously push ahead, but slowly and surely they will get where they want to go, and nothing will stop them from achieving their ambitions. The shyness and reticence is a cover for an intense drive to reach the top of the profession or career. They make excellent teachers and counsellors, most of them could be successful in the tough game of politics {although now and then there's a sour apple in the barrel} - and they excel at anything that requires patience and intelligent deduction.

The Number 8

Those influenced by the 8 vibration may have poor health in childhood, but they grow more robust when they reach maturity, and longevity is common with 8 men and women. These people are willing to wait for their plans to bear fruit, and they use the waiting time wisely. It's rare to find an 8 person procrastinating or "goofing off." They have an inborn sense of duty and responsibility that won't allow them to take a careless attitude toward what is expected of them. Most of those born under the 8 influence are as reliable as a grandfather clock, and as cosy to be around as a grandma quilt or comforter. They have a rich sense of humour, but one has to watch for it; it's subtle and never obvious. These people behave as if they don't care a peanut what people think of them, and they appear to be turned off by compliments, yet inwardly they care very much what people think of them, and if the compliments are sincere, they secretly enjoy them, although they'll hide their pleasure, for fear they might be considered weak. To be considered weak is the very last thing they want to happen. Although the 8 vibration, like all the single number birth vibrations, interacts always with the person's Sun Sign, and the traits aren't always present - they only surface on occasion - most. 8 people have very deep and intense natures and great inner strength. They often play an important role in life's drama, and many times are the instrument of Fate for others. There's a tendency toward fanaticism in religion, and they'll stick by what they believe relentlessly, in the face of all opposition. They make loving friends, but bitter enemies. Although 8 people appear to be cold and undemonstrative with those they love and trust, they can be shyly affectionate and warmly devoted. They're often lonely, needing desperately to be loved, and they're capable of great sacrifices for an ideal, an ambition, or for those who depend on them. They grow younger in appearance and behaviour as they grow older - they look and act younger at fifty than they did when they were twenty. They're as demanding of themselves as they are of others, but for all the outward attitudes of wisdom and maturity, self-control, and discipline, the 8 person's heart is lonely and longing, and they need to learn that the pursuit of happiness is not a sin.

The Number 9 vibrates to the planet Mars. It represents aggressive action, penetration, courage, and conflict. 9 is the number of originality and initiative ... also the contradictory traits of vulnerability and naivet. A person or entity is influenced by the Number 9 if born on the 9th, 18th, or 27th day of any month, in any year. People or entities born on the 9th are stamped with the distinct imprint of the Number 9. So are those born on the 18th and 27th day of the month, but these will, in addition, be challenged to unlock the karmic mystery of the Compound number 18 or 27, as the case may be, in their lives. The same is true of the Single and Compound number of the name: of the person or entity being analysed. The Number 9 characteristics and attitudes will be periodically exhibited by the 9 person or entity, and will interact with that person's or entity's personality in different ways, depending on the individual Sun Sign. When the Sun Sign is: ARIES: The 9 vibration intensifies the Sun Sign personality traits. UBRA: The 9 vibration sometimes opposes the Sun Sign motives, but, with effort, can be used to balance the Sun Sign nature. LEO, GEMINI, SAGITTARIUS, AQUARIUS: The 9 vibration harmonizes well with the Sun Sign character, motives, and personality patterns. CAPRICORN, CANCER, TAURUS, VIRGO, SCORPIO. PISCES: The 9 vibration is in sharp contrast with the basic Sun Sign instincts. When it surfaces on occasion in the personality, the behaviour is so unusual, relative to the person's normal Sun Sign attitudes, it startles others, and often surprises the Number 9 person as well. The Meaning of the 9 Vibration The following definition of Number 9 applies to both people and entities. 9 people are not stubborn, but they are determined to get what they want, and there is a difference. Stubbornness reacts and determination initiates. 9 brings a tendency to be impulsive and make snap decisions, later regretted. Although the temper will flare rather frequently, these people are quick to both forgive and forget an injury. They're vulnerable to their enemies because their first instinct is to trust everyone. Since they're so direct themselves, they expect others to be the same - and others often are not. Deviousness. and manipulation always come as a shock to 9 people. As a general rule, they're incapable of such behaviour and motives themselves, and dishonesty catches them off guard nearly every time, until they learn to be more cautious. One of the most beneficial virtues of the 9 vibration is the ability to penetrate straight to the heart or the core of a situation instead of indulging in circumlocution and the slow process of analysis. The Mars rulership of 9 allows these people to get directly to the point swiftly, and this makes them extremely impatient of slower thinkers, which doesn't help them win popularity contests. In fact, impatience with the mistakes of others and with errors of thinking they see instantly is one of the traits 9 people find the most difficult to control. The familiar catch phrase "what you see is what you get" perfectly describes the 9 personality (when it surfaces to interact with the Sun Sign nature) because of the complete lack of guile. It's against the very essence of the 9 vibration to plan complex strategies or to play games to get what they want from other people. It's so much easier to simply demand what they want! Since such straightforwardness is unexpected by the other person, 9 people usually get what they want by catching the opposition by surprise. Many people are touched by the visible vulnerability and childlike quality of the 9 person, and feel protective toward him or her; others see these qualities as foolish, one of the reasons that 9 people are seldom truly respected by friends and business associates - until that Mars temper and courageous spirit comes forth, like a battle cry, and those who underestimated the 9 vibration's pure energy will take a sudden, shocked step backward. There's a strong tendency toward vanity. At least that's what it appears to be on the surface. But 9 people are not vain, even though they are admittedly almost constantly concerned with their appearance. The true root of this attitude is fear of rejection, because, beneath all their bravado, 9 people inwardly tremble with a lack of confidence. As self-assertive as they may seem, they need continual reassurance that they are liked - respected - admired - and loved. For all the pushiness and independent airs of 9 people, they're secretly very unsure of themselves. Generous to a fault and normally extravagant (unless the Sun Sign cancels this trait most of the time ... although it will still be evident on rare occasions in anyone born as Number 9) - 9 people need no lessons in giving. The first instinct is to give, to let go, and let tomorrow take care of itself.
