Numerology
Numbers stand for more than just tools that we use for calculations in everyday life. As everything in Creation manifests as energy, so do numbers. Numerology uses numbers as tools of information of metaphysical nature. Numbers represent different forms of vibrations from 0–9, therefore different expressions and meanings. Each number is associated with particular meanings as follows:
1 – Self or the whole, singular unit
2 – Compassion, understanding, coming together, harmony
3 – Meeting or interacting with others, group of people coming together for a good cause, gift
4 – Fortitude, having faith in something
5 – Physical movement, actual physical motion
6 – Intuition, the sum of metaphysical abilities
7 – Spiritual knowledge, knowledge, collecting data
8 – Data, information
9 – Elder or elder's wisdom, collection of understandings
0 – Completion

Number messages
We can receive messages in the form of numbers by the other side. Every number has its own expression of energies, therefore meanings. A message in numeric form can appear anytime and anywhere relative to your current situation. When you see a particular number or number sequence, it is a giving you a message that you should pay attention to as it serves as a guidance for you. A number message can tell you what is about to come in your life in the immediate future, or refers to a situation that is already present that you should pay attention to.
Number messages are often improperly called 'angel numbers' as they are not sent to you by angels in particular, rather by your spirit guides and the other side. They make sure you see the number message by making you look at it at the right time. We may see a certain number or number sequence repeatedly; most often on digital clocks but they can appear basically anywhere from number plates to signs, or even receipts.
On a personal note: I have been seeing number messages since 2007 on a daily basis that has become a whole sequence; 1227, 1337, 1447 and 1557. It couldn't be more of a clear message to me having number 7 as my life path — that is spirit, knowledge (spiritual) and collecting data. 1227 means spiritual knowledge, strong understanding of it, for myself. 1337 means spiritual knowledge, strong interactions with others, for myself. 1447 means spiritual knowledge, having strong fortitude in it (just keep going and doing what I do), for myself. Lastly, 1557 is spiritual knowledge, strong physical movement of it, for myself. It all revolves around spiritual knowledge for me, to collect data relevant to it and understand it, and to share that knowledge with others = to awaken others. That is why I'm here.

How to read number messages
Number messages are always personal to you. A number message is read from right to left to get the proper message (on most planets we read from right to left). For example, when you keep seeing 11:11, it is a strong message of the self, your personal power or something important for yourself. When two numbers stand together such as 11 or 66, they become an Elder's number. The double 1's refer to the alpha male and female Source spirits (used to reference the Original First Being male and female but not anymore as they no longer exist). The hardest part is to understand the message and translate it on a personal level. There really is no one way to translate number messages and how they relate to each other in one message. Use your gut feeling and understanding to relate it to yourself, using the meaning of each number.
A few examples:
1010 – completion, for the self. This means that something has come to completion for yourself.
1111 – singular unit or the self. The 1s are reinforced, meaning that you need to pay attention to your self; your personal power is coming out more.
1222 – very strong compassion or understanding, or something coming together, for the self. This means that you are about to have (or you should have) very strong compassion or understanding about something, or something is coming together for you strong.
1436 – intuition and metaphysical abilities, meeting or interacting with others, fortitude, for the self. This means that you should use your intuition or metaphysical abilities when interacting with others, and have fortitude in it.
2558 – knowledge or data, strong physical movement, compassion or understanding/something coming together. This means that data or information is coming to you strong that needs understanding.

Life paths
"At birth, our parents gave us a name; the universe gave us a number" — Dan Millman
The below explanation of the different life paths are excerpted from the book The Life You Were Born To Live Copyright © 1993 by Dan Millman. He explains about the life-purpose system; our birth numbers and purpose in life. Since everything is energy – frequencies and vibrations – our spirit consists of different frequencies, that are a manifestation of different energies and vibrations. Numbers have different vibrations too. According to numerology, we can calculate our own birth number – the particular blend of energies – that determines our life purpose and personality as a whole.
How to calculate birth numbers
Step 1: Make sure you have an accurate date of birth - day, month, year - and write the birth date numerically.
Example: 5 October 1990, which becomes 05-10-1990
Step 2: Put a plus sign (+) between each and every digit, including zeros; then add all o the digits to get a sum.
Example: 0 + 5 + 1 + 0 + 1 + 9 + 9 + 0 = 25
Step 3: Once you have added all of the digits of the birth date and have reached a sum, put a plus sign (+) between the two remaining digits and add them together to reach a final sum.
Example: 2 + 5 = 7 (final sum)
If your original sums ends with a zero, such as 20, 30, or 40, add the two digits as you would any others to get a final number; for example, 20 = 2 + 0 = 2. You will always end of with a final sum of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 or 13.
Step 4: Write the complete birth number as the original sum followed by the final sum, and separate the final sum from the original sum with a slash mark (/). Your main number is after the slash mark, that is your actual life path.
Example: 25/7
Example: 5 October 1990, which becomes 05-10-1990
Step 2: Put a plus sign (+) between each and every digit, including zeros; then add all o the digits to get a sum.
Example: 0 + 5 + 1 + 0 + 1 + 9 + 9 + 0 = 25
Step 3: Once you have added all of the digits of the birth date and have reached a sum, put a plus sign (+) between the two remaining digits and add them together to reach a final sum.
Example: 2 + 5 = 7 (final sum)
If your original sums ends with a zero, such as 20, 30, or 40, add the two digits as you would any others to get a final number; for example, 20 = 2 + 0 = 2. You will always end of with a final sum of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 or 13.
Step 4: Write the complete birth number as the original sum followed by the final sum, and separate the final sum from the original sum with a slash mark (/). Your main number is after the slash mark, that is your actual life path.
Example: 25/7
Overview of primary numbers
1: Creativity and confidence
Energy, when unobstructed, flows naturally into creative endeavours. An abundance of such energy gives 1s the ability to generate creative work in any endeavour; that same energy, like a surging river, demands movement and expression and can manifest as destructive addictions if not properly channeled.
2: Cooperation and balance
The energy of 2s makes these individuals a source of strength, support, and cooperative service. But first they have to define their limits, boundaries, and levels of responsibility they tend to over help and then withdraw. They need to avoid the extreme of servitude, which turns to resentment and resistance.
3: Expression and sensitivity
The life purpose of 3s entails bringing constructive and emotional expression into the world, as they share their feelings and ideas in the most direct, positive, and honest manner possible. They need to find ways to apply their sensitivity and expressive abilities to uplift rather than tear down.
4: Stability and process
As in building a house or anything else, 4s need to realise that a sound and stable foundation comes first, followed by a patient, step-by-step process toward completion of their goals. Balancing strength with flexibility and analysis with intuition, 4s can achieve any goal.
5: Freedom and discipline
The renaissance individuals working 5 seek freedom through a wide range of direct or vicarious experiences. This sometimes leads them to take on too much. They are here to achieve depth of experience through discipline and focus. They tend to swing from extremes of dependence to independence until they find inner freedom.
6: Vision and acceptance
The vision of beauty, purity, and high ideals of those working 6 can become tainted by judgments about self, others, an the world. Their purpose lies in recognising the higher or transcendent perfection in everyone and everything, and aiming for high ideals while accepting themselves and others in the present.
7: Trust and openness
Those working 7 have incisive minds that can read between the lines. They tend to enjoy the outdoor world of earth, sea, flowers, wind, and sky. They are here to trust the wisdom and love inside themselves - to trust Spirit working in them enough to come out 'hiding' and share themselves openly.
8: Abundance and power
Most 8s either strive for or avoid money, power, control, authority, or recognition. In this arena lie their greatest challenges and greatest satisfaction. They are here to master abundance and power by using them in service of a higher purpose, not as an end in themselves.
9: Integrity and wisdom
The life purpose of 9s calls for the highest integrity – in fact, demands that 9s align with higher principles so that they inspire others by their example. With natural depth and charisma, they are often placed in leadership positions, serving as examples of integrity, balance, and wisdom or as examples of the lack of these qualities.
0: Inner gifts
We all have access to inner resources, including qualities such as sensitivity, strength, expressiveness, and intuition. But people with a zero in their birth number – 19/10s, 28/10s, 37/10s, 46/10s, 20/2s, 30/3s, and 40/4s – have the gifts, or potential, to manifest these qualities in greater abundance. In such individuals, these inner gifts lie closer to the surface and tend to intensify the energy of the primary life force. For example, the zero in 30/3 intensifies the 3 energy of expression and sensitivity. Since what we're here to do rarely comes easily, those with a zero in their birth number may encounter problems in these areas until their gifts mature.

1: Creativity and Confidence
Understanding life purpose
Those on the 19/10 life path are here to work through issues of creative energy an integrity, learning to channel their magnetic energy, intuitive wisdom, and inner gifts into positive forms of creativity as they guide or inspire others by their example. However, since what we're here to do isn't usually what comes easiest, before 19/10s can fulfil their life purpose, they have to overcome hurdles and negative tendencies in a number of areas. These individuals are prone to extreme insecurity, addictions, and physical maladies due to blocked energy. Until they find their confidence and overcome hypersensitivity, they also demonstrate a false bravado and often appear angry when actually they feel defensive or hurt. Until they find the wisdom to live in accord with higher principles of integrity, 19/10s learn life lessons as a gymnast often learns balance -- by taking some hard falls. Using the method outlined for determining birth numbers, we do not add together the final two digits of four-digit birth numbers. However, if we did add them together (1 + 0), we would end up with 19/10/1 -- indicating triple creativity (1) intensified by the inner gifts of sensitivity, strength, expressiveness, and acute intuition (0).
The forms of creative service 19/10s provide may range from intuitive healing work to making handmade greeting cards for friends. The creative endeavours of famous 19/10s range from the cartooning genius of Walt Disney to the whimsical rhymes of Dr. Seuss. Florence Nightingale became a healer, Jim Croce a performing artist, Jacques Cousteau a marine explorer, and Mikhail Gorbachev an inspiring world leader. The magnetic energy, natural charisma, and inner gifts of 19/10s converge to create almost unparalleled ability to inspire others. The more 19/10s allow their creative energy to flow, the better they feel. Due to innate insecurity, 19/10s are highly sensitive to the opinions of others, which they either rely upon or resist. At the same time, because 19/10s have an unsure sense of identity, they often identify with their own opinions and tend to impose them on others. The Law of Intuition helps 19/10s feel secure with their own feelings and find the beautiful heart beneath the bluster and hear other people's opinions without feeling threatened or defensive - and without imposing their own will or ideas on others. To overcome their innate hypersensitivity and insecurity, 19/10s need to acknowledge these traits, accept them, and find the confidence to push through them. Like all those working 1, 19/10s can choose to channel their creative energy in constructive or destructive ways. They need to remember that they have the power of choice and that every choice has consequences.
As 19/10s recognise and open to their acute sensitivity, guided by intuitive gifts, they discover that they can tune in to other people. Their resource of strength gives them the fortitude to persevere through hardships. Whether or not 19/10s choose to practice a form of creative healing, such as massage, psychotherapy, painting pictures, or telling stories, they can, by their very presence, become a natural force of healing and inspiration when acting with integrity and working their energy in expansive ways. Once they reconnect with the line of light and energy that is their birthright, and find the courage to live the life they came here to live, the energy surges and they come alive in ways they hadn't experienced before.
Working 19/10 in the Positive
These individuals have a magnetic personality that attracts others. They use their intuitive wisdom in counselling, healing, problem solving, or other forms of creative endeavour. Having made peace with themselves, they offer guidance by example rather than dogmatic opinions, and they respect others' opinions without being dependent on them. The have found the confidence to reveal their sensitive natures, resulting in fulfilling relationships. These individuals enjoy regular exercise as a means of balancing their energies, and they have avoided or overcome destructive addictions. They energise, influence, and inspire those around them.
Working 19/10 in the Negative
When the energies of 19/10s are bound or held in, they create physical discomfort, tension, and pent-up, explosive anger, as well as problems with tobacco, alcohol, other drugs, or food. Rigidly opinionated, these individuals zealously identify with causes, beliefs, or philosophies. Such 19/10s are usually unmarried, divorced, or just difficult to live with. They alternate between acting shy and bossy, opinionated and insecure. When inhibited, they repress sexual energy; when frustrated, they exploit or abuse sexuality. Their dogmatic opinions reflect their underlying insecurity.

Life-path issues
Health
The very large and sensitive energy field of 19/10s often generates an unusual physical appearance in the body, eyes, or face, with unusual physical issues. Individuals working 19/10s need to live a balanced life, keeping everything in moderation, and taking their sensitive nature into account. If energy blockages occur, 19/10s may have difficulties with their prostate or ovaries, lower back, or heart. Illnesses affect the reproductive area and lower back and result in constipation, psychosomatic problems, or a tendency toward addictions. The energy field of 19/10s is so sensitive that they don't tolerate drugs or alcohol well at all; they tend to crave and then abuse them, so they do well to avoid them altogether. When ill, most 19/10s respond better to energetic methods of healing, such as massage, hypnosis, and visualisation, than to standard prescription drugs. Even acupuncturists must use special care, given the highly sensitive energy field of 19/10s. A healthful, grounding diet works best for 19/10s. Even those who generally follow a vegetarian diet may need to include a little fish or poultry on occasion.
All 19/10s thrive on a balanced, moderate exercise program, including walking, stretching, or light calisthenics, which serve to release energy blocks and general negativity, such as pent-up frustration or anger, so that they don't discharge energy in self-destructive ways. Many 19/10s display a kind of exceptional luck or special protection, like the proverbial cat with nine lives.
Relationships
Those working 19/10s sometimes feel cut off from others to the degree that they live 'alone', up in their head. All 19/10s need to pay attention to balancing their mind with their heart; in other words, they only feel their heart when they move out of their head. Anger is a major issue for 19/10s. Alternately repressed or explosive, timid or bossy, they can act charming with strangers and abusive with family friends. They can also act self-abusive when they are angry at themselves, reflecting frustrated energies that hide the love that wants to shine through.
This life path doesn't really center around relationships, which can challenge both 19/10s and those who live with them. They can have good relationships, but intimacy doesn't come easily. Their anger at intimates, whether suppressed or expressed, comes when they feel hurt or bossed around. They have to confront and clear a tendency toward shyness or shame before intimacy and openness can blossom. But 19/10s, like anyone else, can change, and when they trust and feel the love in their hearts, sexual relationships become a form of healing for all involved.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Those working 19/10 have a very strong call to service - to expressing their creative spirit through a variety of endeavours. Due to their inner gifts of sensitivity, strength, expressiveness, and intuition, plus the magnetic energy surrounding them, 19/10s have an indefinable charm and charisma. When they feel confident, they can manifest uncanny insight and practical wisdom. This life path is one of the most naturally intuitive. Although they are by no means limited to such fields, the intense and unique qualities of 19/10s make for intrinsic talents in any form of creativity, intuitive work or healing, community leadership, counseling, or service. They are born healers.
Many forms of healing exist, however, ranging from counseling friends or doing massage to practicing as a licensed professional. Even those 19/10s in fields unrelated to healing can become a healing influence due to their magnetic energy; this healing doesn't necessarily have to manifest in dramatic ways. Many 19/10s express their creative energy by drawing on greeting cards, writing poems, for friends and relatives, or other forms of creative expression. They're so inventive that, given the space to create, 19/10s come up with their own unique ways to serve and inspire. With practice, 19/10s can become gifted, creative writers, musicians, actors, gardeners, directors, or other creative artists. They do wondrous energetic body work, with intense energy working through their hands. Whether or not they choose healing or creative arts, 19/10s can manage people, lead, or serve.
Many 19/10s shy away from healing out of fear of missing their gifts or out of insecurity. When they learn to apply their gifts in service of others, for the highest good of all concerned, their lives blossom. Their level of financial success reflects the degree to which they have overcome insecurity and learned to trust their intuitive gifts.

Many 19/10s shy away from healing out of fear of missing their gifts or out of insecurity. When they learn to apply their gifts in service of others, for the highest good of all concerned, their lives blossom. Their level of financial success reflects the degree to which they have overcome insecurity and learned to trust their intuitive gifts.

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 28/10 life path are here to work through issues combining material success and creative energy, applying their creative energy and intuitive gifts in service of others, guiding with authority and compassion. With the combined influence of creativity and the inner gifts of sensitivity, strength, expression, and refined intuition, the authority of 28/10s comes to full power once they overcome their life issues and obstacles. The sense of abundance and authority they achieve may center around family or the world at large, and it manifests as they step forward with confidence and with a clear motive of service. Using the method outlined in this book for determining birth numbers, we do not add together the final two digits of four-digit birth numbers. However, if we did add them together (1 + 0), we would end up with a 28/10/1, underscoring the potential influence of double creative energy (1) intensified by the inner gifts of sensitivity, strength, expressiveness, and intuition (0), as well as issues of insecurity. Nearly all 28/10s have 'healing hands'; using them with sensitivity, they can intuitively feel where to direct or channel life energy. If they give back rubs to friends, both they and their lucky friends will experience something special. Because many 28/10s have subconscious resonance witn an ancient lineage of wizards, sorceresses, or enchanters, some of whom misused their abilities, 28/10s may fear using their powers. The Law of Higher Will plays a central role, as it inspires them to use their abilities for a higher purpose and thereby releases
subconscious fears.
Those working 28/10 have an inborn drive for authority, and they tend to gain respect from friends, family, or society at large. Assuming this positive authority fulfills one aspect of their destiny. Given that our life purpose doesn't come easily, 28/10s have issues with authority, and before 28/10s can assume their own authority, they have to acknowledge, express, and finally release repressed anger toward authority figures. The bumper sticker 'Question Authority!' was probably created by someone on the 28/10 life path. The powerful creativity of 28/10s is accompanied by equally powerful insecurities. These insecurities, amplified by mixed feelings about power and a tendency to disown their own power, create challenging hurdles for 28/10s to overcome on their life path. As a result of these tendencies, most 28/10s feel they need someone to lean on. They often feel insecure about standing on their own feet and taking care of themselves; yet, in the long run, they find great satisfaction when they become self-sufficient and take control of their own life.
When not taking leadership roles, 28/10s can often become the power behind the throne, cooperating with one or more people to create useful forms of service for a better world. In such roles, they need to be careful about getting too serious and preachy. The insecurities and related passive-aggressive tendencies associated with 1 and 8 energies contribute to 28/10s' tendency to control others emotionally or mentally rather than state what they want honestly and directly. The Law of Honesty can help 28/10s heal or improve their relationships. When these gifted, inspiring people come into their full confidence and authority, they share gifts and energy to lead and uplift others.
Working 28/10 in the Positive
These individuals serve as authority figures whom others admire and respect. They serve as intuitive advisers to friends, loved ones, and others. Having overcome insecurity, such 28/10s make good money in service of others, feeling the healing force that flows through them. Independent, self-sufficient, even enchanting, they attract others to their energy field. They know that whatever difficulties or challenges arise, they have the power to deal with them. Intuitive and inspiring, they provide clear counsel for the highest good of all concerned.
Working 28/10 in the Negative
Insecure, trapped in negative beliefs about money and authority, feeling needy and dependent, these individuals control and manipulate others. They resent authority figures because they haven't yet taken on their own authority. Suffering physically with symptoms of repressed anger and frustration, they fear the dark images that appear in their imagination; they are unable to discriminate between negative impressions and clear intuitions. Such 28/10s haven't yet experienced or contacted the inner and outer guides available to them.

Life-path issues
Health
Because they are here to become healing influences, 28/10s sometimes learn about healing through their own physical issues, energy illnesses, and eating disorders. Physical symptoms of repressed anger appear primarily in the area of the solar plexus (abdomen), down to the perineum {around the base of the spine) and lower back. If their energies are blocked or they are working in the negative, 28/10s may experience symptoms in their ovaries or prostate, lower back, or coccyx, which can result in genital infections, diverticulosis, and problems with the lower intestinal tract. The reproductive area of 28/10s is sensitive and sometimes overstimulated. When 28/10s learn to view their body as a channel of energy, this awareness provides the key to healing themselves and others. Applying the key spiritual laws for this number will help 28/10s overcome insecurity, allow emotions to flow, and open the way to a greater sense of well-being.
The compulsive eating disorders of some 28/10s, such as bulimia and anorexia, often reflect control issues, with opposing tendencies to over-control and undercontrol. Careful attention to a balanced, grounding diet and active, powerful exercise open channels to new strength and confidence. Although some may tend to avoid exercise initially, nearly all 28/10s thrive on exercise once they get in shape; exercise can improve their life dramatically by providing a release for withheld emotions, allowing blocked creative energies to flow and relieving pressure in the reproductive area. Exercise for 28/10s also helps refine the instincts and stimulate a healthy appetite. While exercise is good for nearly anyone, 28/10s especially thrive on aerobic exercise; active dance and martial arts are ideal.
Relationships
A major issue for 28/10s is trapped, unexpressed emotion — especially anger — which they tend to hold in or intellectualize, acting didactic and aloof instead of passionate. They often hold in anger due to concern about others' opinions or because they fear the power of their own anger. They may appear shy or quiet, storing negativity that needs to be discharged. In the positive, 28/10s can be very honest and direct in confronting authority figures. Working with the Law of Honesty helps 28/10s to release anger and express feelings openly and directly. A sense of self-worth, self-sufficiency, and self-contained power are keys to relationships for 28/10s. When they feel needy and want someone to lean on, 28/10s may fall into games of control and manipulation. But when they approach others from a secure place inside themselves, appreciating their own attractive energy, 28/10s see that manipulation is unnecessary and counterproductive, and they stop giving away their power.
Due to their creative energy and sensitivity, most 28/10s have sensitive and powerful sexual centers. They may experience problems associated with sexuality if they abuse or overuse it. Most 28/10s need to monitor carefully how they express their sexual and creative energies. They need to avoid using sexuality for control, identity, or self-worth, and to engage in sex only when they feel open, loving, and giving.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Those working 28/10 possess high energy, healing hands, and sensitive intuition. They make excellent counselors who grasp important subtleties. In addition, when their inborn leadership and authority shine through, they can inspire others. Most 28/10s find fulfilling work in the field of healing or in a business that helps people. Many forms of healing exist for body, mind, and emotions, including hands-on bodywork or energy work, counseling, writing, teaching, and motivating others. Some 28/10s get involved with the business of personal growth. We find 28/10s in every walk of life, but no matter what their livelihood, they enjoy it most if given the opportunity to use their inner gifts, creative energies, and natural sense of authority.
These individuals need to practice utmost honesty with regard to money. If they value money over service, they feel unfulfilled even if they're making very good money. If they face problems with money or with integrity, 28/10s do well to ask themselves, 'What do I really need inside?' When under the influence of negative beliefs about money, 28/10s struggle to get it, but they unconsciously fight or sabotage their own efforts. When their creative energy flows onward with courage and with love, they manifest money naturally; they enjoy it and channel it creatively. When 28/10s feel personally secure and are willing to claim their own authority, they create abundance on every level and make as much money as they allow themselves to. No one stops them but themselves; when they understand this, they get out of their own way and make significant contributions in the world.

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 37/10 life path are here to work through issues of creativity while learning to trust the wise and beautiful spirit in themselves and others, and to apply their inner gifts to create more harmony in the world. These individuals sometimes fulfill their life path in the world at large, as did famous 37/10s Jean Renoir, Aldous Huxley, and Leo Tolstoy, but lesser known 37/10s can fulfill their destiny equally well within a circle of friends or a smaller community. However, since our life purpose rarely comes easily, 37/10s may take time to open up and trust themselves or the process of their life. They have a sensitive, private disposition and must overcome deeply rooted insecurity. Using the method outlined in this book for determining birth numbers, we do not add together the final two digits of four-digit birth numbers. However, if we did add them together (1 + 0), we would end up with a 37/10/1, underscoring the potential influence of double creative energy (1) intensified by the inner gifts of sensitivity, expressiveness, strength, and intuition (0). A sense of trust is important and useful for all of us, but for 37/1s, it becomes the touchstone of life. Due to a lack of self-trust, most 37/10s seek knowledge outside of themselves rather than trusting their intuitive depths, to the degree that 37/10s subconsciously expect betrayal, they encounter betrayal in others and in the world.
Many 37/10s learn useful lessons about the human foibles of spiritual teachers and the importance of trusting their own 'inner knower'. When they recognize that they helped create the drama of past betrayals, 37/10s learn to appreciate the roles played by others, for theirlong-range evolution, whether intentional or not. They may not feel grateful to the specific individuals who broke a trust, but these 37/10s feel gratitude to a larger Spirit for their new awareness as a result of their experience. As 37/10s apply the Law of Expectations and come to recognise the power of their hidden expectations, they change their assumptions; in doing so, they change their life. They no longer need to encounter betrayal in the external world because they have learned to trust the larger process of their life.
All 37/10s, deep down, are wise and healing spirits; they can express themselves like angels in human form once they align themselves with the higher energy and will that manifest within them. These sensitive, refined individuals need to maintain a balanced, moderate lifestyle that includes inner work, such as contemplation or meditation, to create a safe, peaceful space in which they can feel nourished and refreshed. As they come to discover their essential connection to the mystery and beauty of existence, they realize that whatever has happened to them, whether they call it good or bad, easy or difficult, pleasurable or painful has served their highest good and learning.
Working 37/10 in the Positive
In the positive, 37/10s bring a lightness and energy to those they contact. Trusting themselves and the energy working through them, they walk forward confidently and lightly, with the faith that even if they make a mistake, it's a natural part of their path. They have the courage and openness to express their deepest feelings and communicate their inner needs directly and clearly, creating trust based on understanding. They feel joy in their expanding gifts and creativity, which enables them to do refined work in healing or other fields as they tune into other people and feel a deepening connection with the natural world. This healing may take many forms, such as art, music, drama, or other aesthetic forms of expression.
Working 37/10 in the Negative
Starting out as naively trusting seekers, these individuals withdraw from others out of insecurity and fear of being embarrassed, so the very betrayal they fear comes true. Not revealing their feelings, they find or perceive that people misunderstand or even mistrust them. Angry or depressed with themselves, they have disturbing dreams, which reveal the shadow side they fear. They also feel repressed bitterness about relationships, and they struggle with blocked, frustrated creative energies. Physical maladies may force them to confront issues of health.

Life-path issues
Health
Nearly all 37/10s have a sensitive, refined physical nature with a delicate energy field. The base of the spine and the reproductive organs, along with the solar plexus, can be sensitive areas due to the sexual/creative energy of 37/10s. Their heart and knees may be sensitive as well. Whether male or female, these individuals need to be especially conscious of taking responsible precautions to avoid unwanted pregnancy, since they are more likely than many others to have problems in this area. As it does with other natural but reluctant or insecure healers, life may deliver physical problems so that 37/10s can learn about a variety of healing modalities. Such 37/10s often experience this learning as a refresher course, because their subconscious is already well versed in energetic healing arts.
To open and support their intuitive capacities and sensitivities, 37/10s benefit from a light, primarily vegetarian diet, although they may choose to add occasional fish or poultry in order to stay grounded. Otherwise, they thrive on a simple, pleasurable diet based on sound health principles. When insecurity blocks their creativity, 37/10s can fall into self-destructive patterns, such as abuse of drugs, food, or sex. With their sensitivities, they don't tolerate abuse of anything very well or very long. Those working 37/10 need regular, moderate exercise or some form of refined physical training, such as dance, tai chi, yoga, or swimming, to keep energy channels open and flowing. They need to trust that whatever they enjoy is perfect for them. Again, as with others working 1, the main function of exercise is to ground their energy so that it doesn't demand release through less constructive channels, such as addictive behaviour.
Relationships
Like most people working 7 in their birth number, 37/10s tend to trust their mind over their heart, because the heart and feelings are associated with pain and mistrust due to perceived betrayals. Potentially, 37/10s have a deep connection to the love and wisdom of their heart, but to actualize this connection they have to stop hiding inside their mind's defenses and learn to trust their feelings, even if these feelings sometimes involve pain. Many 37/10s would rather listen than talk because they're afraid they might say the wrong thing. They prefer privacy to company, yet they feel they need to bond with someone. Because of insecurity, however, 37/10s often expect a great deal of love without giving much back, and they may tend to rely on other people for strength. They often depend on a mate to make them feel complete or a job to fulfill them, relying on outside influences. In this way, they resemble 28/10s, but while 28/10s have more issues with control, 37/10s are looking for substitute parents to take care of them, because they often feel unsure about taking care of themselves. They have mixed feelings about relationships with others; this ambivalence reflects their uncertain relationship with themselves.
Sexuality and relationship depend on openness and trust to flourish. The sexual life of 37/10s feels more fulfilling when it is tied to transcending the body rather than just physical release. Many 37/10s may find that a sexuality workshop aimed at emotional sharing or even the practice of tantra yoga, a form of deep communion through sexual energy in relationship, may open new doors to intimacy and meaning. Once 37/10s open enough to express their feelings and needs and learn to trust their partner, their relationships flourish.
Talents, Work, and Finances
This is a sensitive, highly artistic pattern; 37/10s work with and are inspired by beauty and nature. Nearly all 37/10s find emotional healing and connection through music. They also display great ability to express themselves through art, acting, poetry, dancing, photography, design, and any other form of creative expression, including teaching. These individuals are here to create higher forms of healing, beauty, and inspiration. This does not mean that all 37/10s are involved in healing professions, fine arts, or spiritual occupations. Higher forms of healing include a very broad spectrum of ways to balance the body, inspire the emotions, or clarify the mind—all of which 'heal' various states of imbalance. For example, designing a serene work environment is one form of healing; artists, musicians, or homemakers who create lovely and comfortable household settings all bring more beauty into the world; teachers, friends, and colleagues can help to inspire and uplift others. Money doesn't generally play a central role in the lives of 37/10s, except as a means of insulation, of not having to depend upon someone else. When 37/10s begin to trust their abilities and manifest them in the world, money will appear in their life almost by magic.

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 46/10 life path are here to work through issues of creativity and high ideals, finding constructive ways to apply their energy and their inner gifts, following a practical, step-by-step process to manifest their vision of a better world. They can create a better world in modest ways at home or among a circle of friends, or in the world at large; the size of the arena is not important. With 4 and 6 energies preceding and influencing the 10, 46/10s have challenges, strengths, and issues unlike other 10s. They may be in touch with the level of vital energy and strength influenced by the 4, but they may not feel very creative due to the perfectionist influence of the 6. Using the method outlined in this book for determining birth numbers, we do not add together the final two digits of four-digit birth numbers. However, if we did add them together (1 + 0), we would end up with a 46/10/1, underscoring the potential influence of double creative energy (1) further intensified by the inner gifts of sensitivity, strength, expressiveness, and acute intuition (0). Because most 4s have trouble progressing slowly through a step-by-step process, and since most 6s tend toward impatience, wanting the perfect product right now, the 46 combination entails exceptional challenges in learning to follow and enjoy the process involved in reaching goals.
While 46/10s may sense their creative potential, in order to actualise it, they have to do what they have inherent difficulty doing. They have to slow down, lay a strong foundation of careful preparation, and develop the necessary skills. Then they can engage in extraordinarily creative, indeed brilliant, work in healing, the arts, business, or any other field by combining their high vision, sensitivity, strength, creative energy, and inner gifts. Those working 46/10 can see beneath the surface of life into its heart and hidden structures. They can become builders and visionaries, but they need feedback, guidance, and support to help them transform their dreams into practical reality. With the high ideals and vision of 6 energy, 46/10s can get lost in schemes and dreams and seem out of touch with reality. Once 46/10s recognize that they don't need to do perfect work, they'll strive for excellence in using their creative gifts. They need to work with realism and compassion rather than with quick judgments born of their high vision. In other words, they reach their vision one step at a time by building a solid staircase to a better life, not just for themselves but for others, too. One way or another, 46/10s make powerful waves due to their powerful combination of strength and sensitivity, vision, and the inner gifts to focus these ideals. Through the intuitive gifts represented by the zero in their birth number, 46/10s are blessed with incredible foresight and insight. They are here to work with their creative energy in a sustained way for a higher purpose. This vision can nourish and sustain them.
Working 46/10 in the Positive
These individuals have distinctive qualities of strength, sensitivity, vision, and a bright, clear field of energy. They have the intuitive capacity to create a vision or internal ideal, along with the strength to work as long as it takes to help bring that vision into reality. Pioneers who point the way, they meet with success in business and in relationships by accepting people as they are while skilfully moving to uplift and reach out even farther and higher. These 46/10s are literally or figuratively visionary warrior-priests, working for higher justice.
Working 46/10 in the Negative
Impatient, frustrated, insecure and discouraged because life never meets their expectations or time tables, these individuals want heaven on Earth, right now, but they don't appreciate the work required to bring it forth; like Don Quixote tilting at windmills, they seek the 'impossible dream'. Sensitive to criticism because they criticise themselves endlessly without realizing it, they don't really hear others' feedback or advice; instead, they create rationalizations that fool even themselves. Their judgments interfere with their direct intuitive sight. Focusing only on problems, they discharge frustrated creative energy through abusing alcohol, other drugs, food, or sex.

Life-path issues
Health
Nearly all 46/10s have a strong, highly refined body. If they are working in the positive, their high-minded lifestyle will help maintain their health. If they are working in the negative, problems may arise from substance abuse or inappropriate sexual activity. The most sensitive or vulnerable areas of their body include the reproductive area, abdominal region, and, sometimes, the knees. Many 46/10s don't just eat; once they realize the powerful influence of diet on the body, they often study nutrition formally or informally to find the optimal diet. They need to remember that there is no perfect dietary regimen, only the best one for them at the present time. They also need to avoid quick-fix diet schemes and accept that change and adaptation happen over time. Those working 46/10 tend to search for and find the highest kind of exercise for them, one that combines many benefits, such as gymnastics, martial arts, or a balance of other efficient activities.
Relationships
Accepting their 'lower' emotions is a big challenge for 46/10s because they tend to focus on what they believe they 'should' feel rather than with what they really feel. Ideal mental images may hide their authentic self in a haze of denial and self-deception. The better 46/10s know and accept themselves, the better their relationships, because then they also accept others' imperfections more readily. Most 46/10s need to work toward accepting ordinary human emotions.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Although their high standards, strength, analytical abilities, and sensitivity serve 46/10s in any occupation, some particularly suitable occupations include practicing some form of bodywork or serving as a personal or business adviser. In general, 46/10s also excel in any kind of work with structure, such as architecture or design. Other possibilities include gymnastics, martial arts, or dance, creating beauty using their body as the brush and the air as their canvas. They may even create new, higher forms of business that serve others. These individuals need to avoid the trap of trying to find a 'perfect' career or never feeling satisfied with any job. They need to pursue not just what they think they 'should' do, but what attracts them. The keys for 46/10s include careful preparation, confidence, and patience. Their financial success depends on and reflects their level of self-worth — how much abundance they feel they deserve — as well as on their willingness to follow a clear process without skipping steps. Overcoming insecurity poses another hurdle, although not to the same degree as for other people with birth numbers ending in 10.
Some Well-Known 46/10s
No well-known 46/10s have surfaced in our records. The oldest 46/10s in this century were born in 1979, and this birth number appears far less often than many others; as time passes, more 46/10s will become well known.

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 29/11 life path are here to combine creative energy with higher principles and integrity, finding ways to apply their creativity in service of others, aligned with higher wisdom. Such higher wisdom is revealed by spiritual laws, especially the laws 29/lls are here to live and learn. Using the method outlined in this book for determining birth numbers, we do not add together the final two digits of four-digit birth numbers. However, if we did add them together (1 + 1), we would end up with 29/11/2, underscoring the double influence of cooperative energy (2) for 29/11s, along with double creativity (11) — creative service. All 29/11s, along with other double Is, have tremendous creative potential. But because their primary life purpose represents a kind of mountain to climb, they may not feel as creative as others who aren't working 1 energy and who have few pressing issues or obstacles in that arena. Some 29/1 Is are still 'stuck' working the 2 or 9 issues that precede the 11, which may block their awareness of the abundant energy available to them. Many 29/11s are extremely creative, but they have trouble handling the energy. Before 29/11s can open the floodgates of their inborn creative potential, they have to find themselves—their center, identity, balance, and boundaries (2 issues). They then need to work through the 9 gauntlet, which includes clearing their dependence on the opinions of others through the Law of Intuition, then contacting and living in accordance with spiritual law by taking responsibility for their own life.
Some 29/11s come from a background of child abuse or violence; they may need to fight to get their will back and to find their sense of self-sufficient identity. The 2 influence plays a strong role and requires that 29/11s integrate the sometimes conflicting parts of themselves and overcome the tendency toward resistance and rigidity. Those working 29/11 also face the challenge of insecurity. With the double creativity of 11 comes double insecurity, which manifests in one of two polarities: Some 29/11s act insecure, nervous, fearful, and under-confident; other 29/11s overcompensate for this internal feeling of inferiority by developing a guarded demeanor that can appear aloof or overconfident. For example, although most 29/11s have very big hearts and a genuine desire to serve helpful causes and make a difference, they can become extremely competitive because they fear losing and its consequences, reflecting their sense of inferiority. The double 1 with the 9 means that the energy of 29/11s needs to be aligned with a larger will, toward a higher good, in accordance with balance and love. Their creativity tends to be mental rather than emotional, full of meaning but not generally as full of color and feeling as that of 30/3 artists, for example. Nearly all 29/lls have a large and powerful energy field, whatever their physical size. When inspired or excited, they need less sleep than most people. When they decide to generate something new, inventive, original, or insightful, they have the energy to perform and produce wonders.
Their abundant energy is a two-edged sword, however, with great benefits or equally great liabilities. Energy is a tool that serves both creative and destructive forces; for example, electrical energy can light our cities or electrocute a human body. As 29/11s learn the lessons of life, they can apply their tremendous energy in more positive ways. Otherwise, they have a strong tendency toward addictive behaviours to discharge a blocked and painful cauldron of constricted creativity. Along with all of these challenges, 29/11s display extraordinary potential; when they face their issues with awareness and commitment, they are among the most creative people on the planet. The energy of 2 entails a form of cooperation with others, and 29/11s are born to support humanity in ways both large and small. Whether businesspeople or healers, construction workers or hairdressers, mail clerks or athletes, they have the potential to bring the spark of creativity to life through their work, their hobbies, or their family life. Overall, 29/11s are destined to direct their powerhouse of creative energy to uplift and inspire, to support and heal.
Working 29/11 in the Positive
These people feel inspired and inspire others as they follow a clear path of service, the underlying motive in all that they do. Creative strategists, supportive friends, and loyal allies, they attract people with their natural charisma and lead by inspiration. In whatever creative field they choose, they offer something special, showing exceptional vitality and endurance to reach their goals. Relaxed and open, these 29/11s get inspiration directly from Spirit.
Working 29/11 in the Negative
Outwardly insecure and inhibited, or aloof, subdued, and seemingly self-assured, these individuals feel haunted by a sense of inferiority that manifests as competitiveness and a fear of losing. Dominant and opinionated, they seem to have a chip on their shoulder and a need to prove something. Stubborn and resistant, bossy and highly opinionated, they have a hard time letting go. Their illusory inferiority inhibits creative risks that would make their life exciting. Lost, without a real sense of themselves, they alternate between bouts of fitful energy and periods of collapse. Their pent-up energy generates addictive or abusive behaviours, and their lessons about spiritual law (especially about actions and their consequences) often get delivered in a court of law.

Life-path issues
Health
Individuals working 29/11 often have an unusual appearance due to the influence of powerful energy. Their energy field is often two or three times the average. When inspired or excited about a creative project, 29/11s don't need as much sleep as most people. Their attractiveness stems as much from a glowing energy field as from physical features. They have a very sensitive reproductive (sexual/creative) area, including the lower abdomen and lower back. Reproductive infections, cysts, pain, lower back pain, constipation, or overweight in 29/11s are very often related to blocked creative energy. Those working 29/11 may suffer more broken bones or unusual diseases than people working other birth numbers. On the other hand, they seem to have exceptional luck, such as walking away unscathed from a bad accident. Most often, physical, emotional, or sexual problems of 29/11s result from blocked creative energy or problems brought on by specific patterns of abuse. Bodywork greatly benefits 29/11s, whether they are getting it or giving it.
The subconscious minds of 29/11s are open and suggestible; therefore, positive thinking, visualization, and other forms of healing that work with the subconscious and the ‘energy body’, such as acupuncture, acupressure, Shiatsu, laying on of hands, bioenergetics, and nutritional therapy, often yield better results than standard drugs and medicine. In general, 29/11s need a varied diet that includes more dense or grounding foods than many other people — foods such as grains, beans, or occasional fish or poultry. They need to pay attention to the laws of nutrition and exercise in the same way they need to pay attention to any spiritual law. Even more than most of us, 29/11s ‘become’ what they ingest. Their sensitive energy does not tolerate drugs or alcohol well; they do best to avoid them altogether — like all double 1s, 29/11s absolutely need more exercise than the average person — not just for fitness reasons but as a means of keeping their energy flowing and grounded. After a period of conditioning, they tolerate exercise well and thrive on it. Exercising daily and finding creative work or hobbies bring a sense of vitality and well-being to 29/11s.
Talents, Work, and Finances
By virtue of their creativity and presence, all 29/11s have within them the archetype, energy, and creative inspiration of the inventor, the artist, the athlete, and the leader. Natural networkers who enjoy many contacts, 29/11s represent the paradox of strong individualists who are also here to serve the larger good of the community. In the financial arena, 29/11s attract money because money is a form of energy and 'like attracts like', As their energy flows, so flows their abundance. To the degree that 29/11s have stepped forth and expressed their creativity in positive ways, they do very well financially, achieving the security so important to them (2 influence). When not working in the positive, they demonstrate and experience down-in-the-dumps feelings of insecurity and lack. For 29/11s, money is just a way of keeping tabs on how their energy is flowing, although in some cases the accumulation of money can become a kind of competitive game or a way to gain others' respect and approval — a strong motivation for these individuals. As long as they focus on creative service, 29/11s find that abundance comes naturally.

38/11
11: Double Creativity and Confidence
8: Abundance and Power
3: Expression and Sensitivity
8: Abundance and Power
3: Expression and Sensitivity
Understanding life purpose
Those on the 38/11 life path are here to combine creativity and material success, learning to apply their power and express their energy with compassion and generosity. They are not here to achieve wealth or influence for their own sakes, but rather in service of a larger cause, whether a small circle of friends or colleagues, or the community at large. What we're here to do doesn't come easily; the life purpose of 38/11s is no exception. With a creative drive even more powerful than other double Is due to the influence of 8 energy, 38/11s have to deal with powerful insecurity and self-doubt, as well as a tendency to give away, avoid, or sabotage their own power or abundance. They often do this with their mouth, since they also deal with expression issues. On their life path, 38/11s must eventually get in touch with and express their feelings and sensitivities, overcome self-doubt, and deal with 8 energy and issues related to repressed anger toward authorities so they can take on their own authority. Using the method outlined in this book for determining birth numbers, we do not add together the final two digits of four-digit birth numbers. However, if we did add them together (1 + 1), we would end up with 38/11/2, adding the potential influence of cooperative energy (2) for 38/11s, along with double creativity (11). This means that until 38/11s mature, their independent, even controlling nature may make them difficult to work with; they may be overly solicitous and helpful at first, but if they overhelp, the 2 energy will send them rebounding into resentment. These inherently powerful individuals, whose power may alternately feel suppressed or explosive, have the energy and drive to make money and make waves. Their lifework, in whatever form it takes, involves learning to control themselves (rather than others) and directing their considerable power and energy to creative contributions that uplift and empower those around them, helping others find their own source of energy and inspiration. Most 38/11s feel they can't give enough and can't receive enough. Combining emotional sensitivity and raw, though often inhibited, power, they are driven by powerful creative energy. They may spend their life holding a tiger by the tail until they tame that tiger and learn to channel their energy in positive ways. Otherwise, they may suffer addictions to drugs, orgasms, or food. With the power and authority issues of 8, most 38/11s can get preachy and didactic or bossy and controlling; these attributes can affect anyone working 8, but for 38/11s, the issues of 8 energy are amplified by the presence of the double 1. Like all 1s or double 1s, 38/1s also have to deal with insecurity issues, which for them are compounded by a tendency to repress or withhold the power associated with 8. The more 38/11s dedicate their life to a common cause or higher purpose that extends beyond them, the more they purify the 8 energy and release their creative energy, which generates the courage to step forward into life.
Working 38/11 in the Positive
Brilliant and powerful leaders or dynamic creative advisers, these individuals can solve long-standing problems, create new options, and open doors to a better world. Money isn't the main issue for them; they apply their energy, and there's always enough. They give and receive without keeping track of the score, and they attract others with their powerful energy field. They help empower others, and they share abundantly. They've learned to lead from a position of equality and mutual respect. Driving the material success path with a tidal wave of energy makes for an exciting, productive life.
Working 38/11 in the Negative
These individuals outmaneuver, outcompete, and over-control others, often through manipulation. Too unsure to put themselves on the line, they deny their power and sabotage their success or, alternately, they exploit their power and seek to achieve success by dominating or outshining others. Avoiding exercise, they struggle with addictions due to blocked creative energy. Frustrated by pent-up energy, they alienate others due to an aloof, negative exterior, but underneath churn gnawing self-doubts and insecurities.

Life-path issues
Health
Those working 38/11 combine a mixture of vulnerable areas and traits associated with 3 (blocked expression affecting the throat area) double 1 (reproductive area, lower abdomen, lower back), and 8 (possible self-sabotage in the form of accidents or, less frequently, burnout from overwork). This doesn't imply that 38/11s will necessarily suffer any illness or accidents; maladies most often come when these individuals work negative patterns, and they can be viewed as life's feedback, signalling the need to change old habits. The most effective healing methodologies for 38/11s include positive visualisations, work with beliefs, acupuncture, bodywork, or other relatively subtle work with the mind and energy field. As long as they keep their creative energy flowing, 38/11s have sturdy dispositions and enjoy stable, vigorous health. Those working 38/11 like to make their own rules about nutrition. Most 38/11s are too busy to make food a central issue in their lives (except for creative cooking); for most 38/11s, food is just fuel for their life and ambitions. A vegetarian or modified vegetarian diet helps to balance a tendency toward aggressiveness. Like other double Is, 38/11s need a great deal of exercise to release and ground their creative energy. Once in shape, they thrive under a daily routine of aerobic exercise.
Relationships
Even though they can appear very secure, the double 1 and the 3 mean that 38/11s often seek out one or more partners to give them a better sense of themselves. Most 38/11s have paradoxical energy in that they need a strong person to lean on and yet they tend to control everybody in their world. The nature of their relationships and sexuality reveals much about how 38/11s are working through their life issues. Most 38/11s find that issues of power and control, as well as insecurity, may enter the bedroom with them. They may use sexuality and their partner as a means of release without applying sensitivity to their partner's needs; they may give away their power or abuse it. Sexually, they either like to be in charge or they like to be overpowered. Bondage and sexual power games were probably invented by a 38/11. Of course, when working in the positive, 38/11s can have mutually satisfying relationships, sexual and otherwise. In any case, their personal relationships serve as a mirror to help them understand and balance their lives.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Most 38/11s are natural leaders with the important qualities of authority, sensitivity, and creativity that can help solve any problem. They can make admirable or despicable politicians, depending upon whether they're working their issues with power and creativity in positive or negative ways, applying power wisely and with authority or using power to subjugate others. While not all 38/11s serve in obvious positions of authority, they may guide others at school, at work, or at home through their innately powerful mind and creative ideas. They make capable inventors, innovators, and leaders in creative fields, such as business or fine arts. Many 38/11s work as business entrepreneurs, empire builders, heads of state, or heads of small businesses. Whether preachers or problem solvers, they stand out in their field. In the financial area, 38/11s may experience self-sabotage, both desire and fear, and a tendency toward feast or famine. Having a stable, conservative personal or business partner who is good with money can help. When 38/11s dedicate their creativity toward the common good, making a positive difference in the world, money comes to them naturally. The more energy and service they put into the world, the more money comes back.

11: Double Creativity and Confidence
7: Trust and Openness
4: Stability and Process
7: Trust and Openness
4: Stability and Process
Understanding life purpose
Those on the 47/11 life path are here to combine creativity and trust, learning to trust the creative spirit within them and channel their energy to help build a more stable, peaceful world. Their world may expand to the larger community or may, with equal significance, limit itself to a smaller circle of family, friends, or associates. Using the method outlined in this book for determining birth numbers, we do not add together the final two digits of four-digit birth numbers. However, if we did add them together (1 + 1), we would end up with 47/11/2, adding the potential influence of cooperative energy (2) for 47/11s, along with double creativity (11). Since our life purpose is an uphill climb, 47/11s face a number of issues and tests related to the chronology of their birth number: First, they need to explore and come to trust their own process of growth over time; second, they need to overcome a fear or expectation of mistrust or betrayal, most often generated by family problems in childhood; third, they need to overcome a profound insecurity that may interfere with their openhearted connections with others.
The central archetype of 47/11s deals with aesthetics, harmony, rhythm, wholeness, and refinement. Trust is a central issue for 47/11s, and the pure life energy they experience is softened by their aesthetic nature, yet strengthened and supported by 4 energy. We can all appreciate beauty, but to create beauty and share it with others requires a period of practice and preparation. Following a step-by-step process is essential for 47/11s. Like those with other birth numbers, most 47/11s experience difficult or negative aspects of their number as well as a more positive fulfilment of their life purpose. The Law of Process helps 47/11s counteract a tendency toward childlike naivety and impatience, and the Law of Faith serves as an antidote to an inherent sensitivity to betrayal and issues with self-trust. These are important laws for 47/11s, who sometimes experience debilitating bouts of insecurity aggravated by a lack of self-trust. Sadly and ironically, these refined yet strong individuals often feel like failures before they've even begun. Once 47/11s have had a chance to tackle the issues of process, trust, and insecurity, they come into their own confidence, beauty, and spirit. As 47/11s open to inspiration, they sense Spirit everywhere and in everyone. Once they trust this Spirit in themselves, they bring light, energy, and magic into the world.
By blending the razor-sharp mind of 7s with the analytical capacities and strength of 4s, then amplifying the volume with two doses of creativity, 47/11s embody a rare kind of potential that has rarely appeared on the planet before. They come at a time when their refinement and energy is most needed, not just to help 'save' our world, but to help celebrate it. Following a step-by-step process to reach their goals requires a degree of trust in the process. They need to remember that creativity alone has little force without the time and skill necessary to catalyze it. Those working 47/11 can build bridges of light through their creative imagination. Their challenge involves expressing their creativity in practical ways while keeping their energy grounded. They are here not to engage in flights of personal fancy, but to bring their creative visions down to Earth to share with others. With their Utopian vision and their gift of foresight, 47/11s can remind us of the beauty that may have escaped our notice, here and now, in the depths of life. One way or another, they serve as a source of light for others, finding their place in the greater order of life.
Working 47/11 in the Positive
The energy field of these individuals shines with a kind of clear luminosity others sense rather than see with their physical eyes. By their inspiring presence, they remind us of the creative energy and Spirit that works through all of us, whether or not we are yet aware of it. Traveling through different dimensions in imagination, they experience life as a spiritual mystery — a living, tacit realisation — and they use their analytical skills, lightning-fast mind, and creative energy to share this uplifted experience of life with others. It may be hard for us to fathom the source of their inspiration or to keep up with their pace. It's as if they have an angel on their shoulder; the more they trust and work with their inner guides and subtle intuitions, the more positive energy and beauty they bring into the world.
Working 47/11 in the Negative
These individuals live in a world of their own mind, without a sense of grounding or connection. Isolated and embittered, they lose themselves in the 'virtual reality' of their creative imagination and live like hermits, even when among people. They prefer computers to people, and solitude to people they mistrust. Brilliant failures, they want a magical world where things happen quickly and easily, and they don't always want to be here on planet Earth. They are very sensitive to feeling betrayed by others, and they experience conflicting pulls between inner and outer reality. Struggling under the weight of unresolved childhood difficulties, with their emotions inhibited, they are vulnerable to addiction to escapist drugs or experiences.

Life-path issues
Health
Most 47/11s have a very refined, sensitive body and energy field. Like other double 1s, 47/11s are vulnerable in the reproductive area (including lower abdomen and lower back), especially if their creative energy is blocked. The heart and, secondarily, the legs may also be problem areas if 7 or 4 issues are unresolved. Their body is strong but also very sensitive, : When 47/11s are ill, working with their mind (on both conscious and subconscious levels) through positive imaging and creating empowering beliefs can assist dramatically in the healing process. These individuals definitely benefit from a grounding diet, preferably vegetarian, with little or no dairy products, but the diet mustn't be too light, or they may get so ‘airy’ they float away. The main thing for 47/11s to remember is to trust their own instincts and intuition regarding nutrition and exercise.
Those working 47/11 generally prefer aesthetic kinds of exercises in natural settings that generate a feeling of inner balance and peace, such as hiking in scenic surroundings, actively sculpting, splashing paint on canvas, or doing a variety of different calisthenics to music, incorporating breath, movement, and relaxation. Because of the 4, some kind of routine, even if varied, is important to keep their creative energies clear and open. Demanding exercise that requires coordination of mind, feeling, and attention serves to keep 47/11s physically grounded. They are nourished by forests, deserts, and almost any natural setting.
Relationships
Many 47/11s marry, have children, and settle into a stable life. Nevertheless, most do not fall into conventional roles; they are too busy being creative, leading people out into nature or into the realm of their own imagination. In any relationship, the process of developing mutual trust through vulnerability and honest communication remains key. They also need to pay attention to being truly present on an emotional level. Their sexuality may involve creative fantasy, and they generally experience an active drive, including masturbation if their drive outstrips their partner's or if they prefer the safety of their fantasies to the vulnerability of sexual intimacy.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Those working 47/11 manifest mental creativity at its best. Because of their creative imaginations, they make wonderful writers of fiction, creative advertising copy, or inspiring speeches. Enjoying solitary work, they also make good researchers unless they lack patience or shun routine. They apply their creativity to any form of business, working for the larger family of humanity. They could even become or write about a brilliant inventor, a forest wizard (or computer wizard), a hermit sage, or a healer who works with spirit guides. Like 29/11s and 38/11s, 47/11s share double creative energy and tend to attract money from many sources, but for them money is a secondary motive; they hardly notice when it comes in or goes out. When their juices are flowing, 47/11s create money the same way they do anything else — apparently by magic.
Some Well-Known 47/11s
No well-known 47/11s yet exist in our records. The oldest 47/11 in this century was born in 1989. This birth number reflects a very small percentage of the population; in the future, as more 47/11s appear on the planet, more will become well known.

20/2
2: Cooperation and Balance
20: Cooperation and Balance With Inner Gifts
20: Cooperation and Balance With Inner Gifts
Understanding life purpose
Those on the 20/2 life path are here to use their inner gifts in a spirit of service and to establish healthy boundaries and balanced responsibility in order to achieve joyful cooperation and mutual support. From this point of balance, 20/2s can cooperatively serve the common good out of love and caring rather than codependence. Not all codependents work 20/2, of course, nor do all 20/2s behave like codependents, but until they find a balance point, 20/2s tend to feel overly responsible and over-help, then feel resentful and withdraw emotionally. Because 20/2s feel so responsible and on some level blame themselves, even for other people's problems, they quickly find fault with others as a defensive maneuver, as if to say, ‘It's not my fault!’ All 20/2s need to take full responsibility for their own life but not feel responsible for the lives of others, except, of course, in appropriate situations, such as caring for children. Most 20/2s need to define clearly the difference between service and servitude. In the larger sense, 20/2s can develop the ability to cooper ate with life itself, rather than resisting the situations or circumstances they meet.
In their life and relationships, 20/2s start out doing too much; then the pendulum inevitably swings the other way, and they freeze up, resist, or withdraw. They're here to find their comfort zone and define their limits — choosing to do what they feel goad about, and, when they don't feel good, knowing when to say, ‘Enough’, before they have to say, ‘I'm fed up’. As 20/2s get in touch with what they feel rather than what they or others think they should feel, they can truly support, and also feel supported by, others. Those working 20/2, 22/4, and 40/4 have many resonant issues, such as the need to apply a step-by-step approach to problem solving. Although 20/2s thrive in support positions, they can certainly become leaders or artists in any field. Usually they feel most satisfied if they are supporting others who work toward larger causes.
Similar to 4s, 20/2s have minds that tend to run in circles when they are making decisions — weighing all the variables, comparing every benefit and liability — in order to feel they are doing what they ‘should’. Most 20/2s are also concerned about stability and keeping everything under control; disorder feels like chaos to them and may bring up childhood fears. The greatest challenge for most 20/2s is finding their own internal harmony. They thrive when they give their analytical mind some time off and let other people solve their own problems. When 20/2s contact their internal sense of harmony and set their own boundaries, they serve as a standard of balance by which others can set their own internal mechanisms. Along with innate strength and surprising sturdiness whatever their body type, 20/2s can apply their inner gifts of sensitivity, strength, expression, and intuition (or refined intuition) to their work in the world. With their extra sensitivity, 20/2s need to remember that if others get themselves stuck in dark or difficult places, they can offer their support if they feel moved to do so, but they are not responsible for others' predicaments. They do not need to get others out of the holes they've gotten themselves into. Sometimes people need to stay in a dark place for a while until they learn what they need to learn. ‘Saving’ people before they are ready to be saved may not truly help them. It's not for us to decide what others should do any more than others should decide what is appropriate for us. Those working 20/2 do best to serve from a centered place of compassionate detachment.
Working 20/2 in the Positive
These individuals balance strength and flexibility, home and work, time for others and time for self. Their bodies stay relaxed and supple, reflecting their internal equanimity, because they worry less and intuit more. Consummate problem solvers and mediators in family or business, they help others to reach agreement, just as they have reached internal harmony and integration within themselves. Using both their strength and sensitivity in support of others, they feel useful and appredated; they support and appreciate themselves, as well, honouring their boundaries, feelings, and limits.
Working 20/2 in the Negative
No one ever knows what these individuals want, not even themselves; they're too preoccupied doing what they think they are supposed to do, and they are quick to expect that others should do the same. Chronically codependent, they feel responsible for almost everything, keeping the moon and stars in place while meeting everyone's needs. Other people's whims become their demands. They ‘sacrifice for others’ and then resent it; they tend to give too much, then resist or withdraw completely. Physically, mentally, and emotionally stressed from worrying about everyone else, they suffer from allergies and other ailments.

Life-path issues
Health
Their strong, generally vigorous body and robust disposition fight off most illness, but 20/2s are prone to tension as their worry and their busy mind impose chronic, thought-produced stress on their body. Allergies may flare up in times of stress, and physical tension may obstruct the efficient working of the lymphatic portion of the immune system. Most 20/2s (like 40/4s and 22/4s) tend toward either stocky, wide bodies, reflecting their strength, or more wiry bodies that are surprisingly resilient. When excessive weight is an issue, 20/2s benefit from aerobic exercise and a low-fat diet, along with stretching, deep breathing, and relaxation or meditation training. Meditation and suppleness are very important for 20/2s, but they tend to avoid both, preferring outward, expansive training for strength — a quality they already have in abundance. Most 20/2s have great potential strength but lack flexibility, so the best kind of exercise for them teaches flow, suppleness, and balance, as do yoga, tai chi, aikido, and other martial arts that emphasize stretching and relaxation. Nearly all 20/2s have close ties to the subconscious, so they benefit from hypnosis and from positive visualization, in contrast to the negative fantasies and concerns to which they sometimes fall prey.
Relationships
Most 20/2s tend to withhold their real feelings when they are over-cooperating because they aren't always sure what they feel — or ‘if it's okay’ to feel that way. They generally pay attention to their partner's needs and feelings first, but then they may feel burdened if they believe they're giving more support than they are getting. The tendency of 20/2s to over-cooperate and then under-cooperate reveals itself most clearly in relationships. They put their feelings on the back burner until something inside of them bursts, and then they become reactive and resentful. Anger or resentment are signs that 20/2s have been over-cooperating. They typically start out a relationship in over-cooperation, tossing their own values, interests, and needs out the window and, chameleon-like, becoming whatever their partner seems to want. Then, eventually, they swing into under-cooperation and withdraw or resist. If their relationship ends, they feel hurt: ‘I gave so much, and he/she left me!’ The ability to compromise and negotiate is crucial for 20/2s in relationship: ‘I'll do this much if you do that much’. They're here to learn this kind of mutual cooperation. Sexually, 20/2s follow the same patterns, first doing what they think the other person wants them to do. This period may go on for a short period or for many years — until they become frigid or impotent, or just withdraw sexually. Their subconscious turns off from a sense of having given too much. If this happens, 20/2s and their partners need to see a professional to open up lines of communication and rapport; having ‘a little talk’ won't suffice.
Talents, Work, and Finances
When inspired, those working 20/2 ‘walk a straight path through Life’ — balanced and unswayed by others' emotions, desires, or opinions. They can excel in many fields due to a balance of strength and sensitivity. All 20/2s, with their inner gifts, demonstrate a powerful combination of strength and sensitivity that creates unusual capacities that don't always show on the surface. Like 40/4s, they generally gravitate toward family life and serve as supportive, dependable, caring helpmates and parents when working in the positive. They can also serve as quintessential diplomats in family squabbles or in the larger world of organizations or government. Those working 20/2 have excellent organizing and coordinating abilities and make excellent mediators or negotiators. They often serve as invaluable assistants or support people whose presence and work make a real difference in any enterprise. They don't always work behind the scenes; sometimes they take center stage in front of the cameras, or even in the Oval Office. But for every famous 20/2, thousands work effectively behind the scenes. Security is very important to 20/2s and entails knowing that the rent or mortgage money is available, with enough left over to put food on the table. Their practical nature will lead 20/2s, quite intuitively, to
the secure situation they seek, and to the form of service that suits their abilities and temperament.

Their strong, generally vigorous body and robust disposition fight off most illness, but 20/2s are prone to tension as their worry and their busy mind impose chronic, thought-produced stress on their body. Allergies may flare up in times of stress, and physical tension may obstruct the efficient working of the lymphatic portion of the immune system. Most 20/2s (like 40/4s and 22/4s) tend toward either stocky, wide bodies, reflecting their strength, or more wiry bodies that are surprisingly resilient. When excessive weight is an issue, 20/2s benefit from aerobic exercise and a low-fat diet, along with stretching, deep breathing, and relaxation or meditation training. Meditation and suppleness are very important for 20/2s, but they tend to avoid both, preferring outward, expansive training for strength — a quality they already have in abundance. Most 20/2s have great potential strength but lack flexibility, so the best kind of exercise for them teaches flow, suppleness, and balance, as do yoga, tai chi, aikido, and other martial arts that emphasize stretching and relaxation. Nearly all 20/2s have close ties to the subconscious, so they benefit from hypnosis and from positive visualization, in contrast to the negative fantasies and concerns to which they sometimes fall prey.
Relationships
Most 20/2s tend to withhold their real feelings when they are over-cooperating because they aren't always sure what they feel — or ‘if it's okay’ to feel that way. They generally pay attention to their partner's needs and feelings first, but then they may feel burdened if they believe they're giving more support than they are getting. The tendency of 20/2s to over-cooperate and then under-cooperate reveals itself most clearly in relationships. They put their feelings on the back burner until something inside of them bursts, and then they become reactive and resentful. Anger or resentment are signs that 20/2s have been over-cooperating. They typically start out a relationship in over-cooperation, tossing their own values, interests, and needs out the window and, chameleon-like, becoming whatever their partner seems to want. Then, eventually, they swing into under-cooperation and withdraw or resist. If their relationship ends, they feel hurt: ‘I gave so much, and he/she left me!’ The ability to compromise and negotiate is crucial for 20/2s in relationship: ‘I'll do this much if you do that much’.

9: Integrity and Wisdom
3: Expression and Sensitivity
Understanding life purpose
Those on the 39/12 life path are here to work through issues of creativity, cooperation, and integrity, expressing themselves through creative teamwork, aligned with higher wisdom, in a spirit of mutual cooperation. Examples of cooperative teams include the Wright brothers, Gilbert and Sullivan, Barnum and Bailey, Rogers and Hammerstein, and Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers; sports teams also represent a form of creative cooperation, producing together what they could not do as well, or at all, alone. The life purpose of all 1s involves creative energy, but most 1s can create in relative independence or even isolation. Because of the combined influence of 2, the abundant creative energy of 39/12s manifests best in cooperation with others, creating a whole greater than the sum of the independent parts. Using the method outlined in this book for determining birth numbers, we do not add together the final two digits of four-digit birth numbers. However, if we did add them together (1 + 2), we would end up with 39/12/3, underscoring the double influence of expressive energy (3) for 39/12s. Although 39/12s share the core 12 with 48/12s, their life path differs considerably because they combine the emotional sensitivity and expressive drives of 3s with strong 9 energy, including a depth of wisdom and internal seriousness as well as charisma. Because of strong 9 energy,
39/12s feel most fulfilled if they cooperate in alignment with higher principles or spiritual laws, and if their work allows them to grow and learn. People working birth numbers like 20/2 or 30/3 have all of their energetic eggs in one basket; they confront their life path directly early on. But 39/12s, with their issues of expressive energy (3) and integrity and wisdom (9), with their cauldron of creative energy (1) and associated responsibilities (2), often feel overwhelmed at times. They may take longer than those on different life paths to come into their own, when their psyche finally sorts out and harnesses all of their emerging qualities and drives. Our life purpose isn't what comes easiest, but when 39/12s integrate their insides and find a balance between helping too much and helping too little, and when they learn to give to themselves as well as give to others, they manifest an inherent ability to create extraordinary forms of meaning, inspiration, service, and beauty. Whether working with another individual or with a group, 39/12s display a depth of emotion and almost religious internalization of meaning and purpose that lets them feel the depths of their soul and the souls of others. Nearly all 39/12s have abundant energy. Highly emotional, 39/12s base their intelligence on emotional intuition and sensitivity to the core issues of life. For the most part, 39/12s have little time for frivolous or shallow concerns; they may need to lighten up and act silly on occasion, to remind themselves that life doesn't have to be so serious, at least from a transcendental perspective. Most 39/12s feel somehow different from other people, almost like outsiders.
Due to their emotional sensitivity, combined with the unsettled sense of identity of 9s, 39/12s often suffer from self-doubt and vulnerability to others' opinions. They may appear subdued or inhibited, but beneath their controlled persona bubbles an inspired passion for life and for making a difference. If withdrawn, 39/12s need to get out into the fray, to 'stand up inside themselves'. and bring their energy into life despite others' opinions. Most 39/12s need to pay close attention to how positively or negatively they're using their creative energy in cooperation with others. They need to avoid getting drawn into other people's problems by remembering the difference between sympathy (joining others down in their dark hole) and empathy (throwing others a ladder). Those working 39/12 come here to find their center and their balance so that they can serve others while also taking care of their own needs. This in turn allows them to regenerate and serve with others even more effectively. If 39/12s feel good about themselves emotionally, they'll release and enjoy their creative energy to its fullest range and bring their passion and the beauty of their creative energy into the world. Overall, no matter what form their contributions take, 39/12s feel happiest when working for a higher cause, in cooperation with friends, colleagues, clients, and the world at large.
Working 39/12 in the Positive
The many fine qualities these individuals possess are magnified through their interaction and collaboration with others. They bring passion, presence, and expressive creativity into the world. They respect others' opinions as well as their own. They know when to hold their ground and when to stay flexible. They make loyal friends, and their relationships are based on heartfelt feeling and deep understanding and respect. They find meaning and enjoyment in their work, which makes use of their creativity and expression, as they help others do their best. These individuals show class and refinement, strength and sensitivity.
Working 39/12 in the Negative
Stubborn and insecure, these individuals create in the negative through complaints and cutting remarks that reflect the depth of overwhelming passions for which they can find no outlet. They over-give, then find fault and withdraw. They have trouble getting along, even with themselves, as their drives compete for priority and attention and their mind whirls as they try to decide what they should do and for whom. They feel as if they're living for other people, at the whim of others' needs and opinions. They have unusual, emotionally generated physical ailments stemming from frustrated expression. They feel lonely and isolated.

Life-path issues
Health
Because of the emotional sensitivity and depth of 39/12s, what troubles them cuts deep. Their hypersensitivity is aggravated by the tendency to feel responsible. When under stress or when their energies are suppressed, they are susceptible to psychosomatic maladies and unusual illnesses, not just colds or the flu. This tendency decreases as 39/12s begin to work their life purpose in the positive. The most vulnerable areas of 39/12s shifts based on which of the part of their birth number they are working. Their throat can flare up if expression is blocked. The reproductive area (including abdomen or lower back) is also sensitive. They are subject to stress-produced allergies. Blocked creativity and expression underlie many physical symptoms, which serve as signs that 39/12s need to open up their creativity and express inhibited feelings.
Physical symptoms also signal the need for 39/12s to bring their life into alignment with the spiritual laws they came here to live. Most 39/12s have refined dietary tastes, and food and emotions are interrelated for them. If they're feeling down, they may not want to eat, or they may pick at food; alternately, they may link food to consolation and overeat. The more they express their feelings, the more intuitive rather than emotionally dependent their dietary choices become. They benefit from exercise that combines elements of strength with sensitivity, such as yoga, tai chi, or other aesthetic, even meditative, forms that best suit their tastes. They can turn a basketball or volleyball game into an aesthetic event, but group sports, if they even play them, have more to do with relationship than with the game itself. More likely, a regular, conscious routine of movement and breathing brings 39/12s the most benefit and enjoyment.
Relationships
Those working 39/12 are fed, nourished, and guided by their emotions. As long as 39/12s stay attuned to their feelings, they make good choices in relationships. They generally intuit, although not always consciously, that their primary relationship serves a larger purpose, beyond companionship or convenient sexual release. People working certain birth numbers do not require relationships to fulfill their life purpose, but 39/12s nearly always feel a drive to share their life with someone, for only in relationship and cooperation does their creativity find its fullest expression. However, their relation ships also serve as clear mirrors of all of their major issues, including self-doubt and insecurity, vulnerability to others' opinions, the need for honest expression, and, foremost, issues of cooperation. All 39/12s in relation ship need an understanding and compassionate partner — someone who shares rather than makes too many demands, because even though they have much to give, 39/12s tend to over-give in response to demands and then feel drained.
In the arena of sexuality, 39/12s need to avoid getting drawn into messy situations. While it may not show to others, 39/12s are romantics and feel deep attractions; they develop 'crushes' every now and then. They need to remember not to get involved with anyone who has more problems than they do, and to stay away from married men or women other than their own partner. Spiritual laws apply strongly to relationships; if 39/12s get into problematic situations, they learn painful lessons. The relationships of 39/12s display depth and passion. As they bring out that passion within the secure bonds of relationship, it nourishes the soil from which their life blossoms. Emotions and mutual support provide the fertilizer and the magic. A fulfilling sexual life, no matter how it is expressed, follows naturally.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Once they find their confidence, 39/12s make natural performers in many fields, whether they act, make sales presentations, tell stories, or give inspired sermons. They also do very well in creative support positions, for example, as book or magazine editors. Their charisma eventually brings recognition, even if they start in the background. They also make very creative therapists who are in tune with others' feelings. Their multiple energies and drives lead to varied talents; these individuals can see and feel issues from different perspectives. They can bring forth sensitivity or strength as needed. Their strong opinions are usually well-founded, but they need to stay flexible and open. They do well in any field where their creative mind supports others to do their own creative work. They feel most inspired when their work supports a higher cause.
Generally, the financial state of 39/12s reflects the degree to which
they are working their life path in the positive — the degree to which they have overcome self-doubt and focused on an area of work that uses their talents. Much of their energy is spent just holding things together, finding their focus with so many competing forces and opportunities within and without. Most 39/12s make good money but usually choose work with other criteria predominating. If they choose to help run a large company, they may earn a high salary; if they choose to be a storyteller in the park, they may make just enough to get by. Once they overcome self-doubt and step forward into the world with their unique combination of talents and drives, their fortunes will rise to the occasion.

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 48/12 life path wilt be coming here to work through issues of creativity, teamwork, and success, cooperating with others and following a step-by-step process to create a more secure and stable world for themselves and others. Most 48/12s will create this process toward stability within their own circle of friends and family; a few will do it in the larger society. Either way, 48/12s will want their influence felt by others. Because our life purpose poses specific challenges, it may take some time for 48/12s to work through issues of power and process and find the capacity to establish balanced, creative, cooperative relationships with others. The 48/12 life path is new on the planet; the first individuals working this energy will be born on September 29, 1999. I base this section on archetypes, patterns, and qualities associated with the numbers 4, 8, 1, and 2 rather than on case studies or individuals I've known. Using the method outlined in this book for determining birth numbers, we do not add together the final two digits of four-digit birth numbers. However, if we did add them together (1 + 2), we would end up with 48/12/3, adding the potential influence of expressive energy (3) for 48/12s.
Those working 48/12 will come to Earth as bearers of light and creativity. Their appearance will signal very practical physical changes and the need for strong leadership and creative cooperation in tie times ahead. Many changes are coming to Earth, including major shirts in technology and in consciousness. Amid the changes, we will need structure and order, which 48/12s are well suited to help create, as the old forms pass away. Before 48/12s can serve such lofty purposes, however, they will first need to establish their own foundations and accept their own process and power. Not all 48/12s will work on a grand scale, but even in a smaller context, within family or local community, they will have the potential to share analytical brilliance and creative ideas, along with the power and influence to make these ideas into reality. Because of the influence of 4 and 2, these individuals will also have issues with responsibility; they may tend to overwork, driven by strong ambitions. Fortunately, their creative energy will help support their dominant work orientation. Family will also be a high priority for these individuals; they will have issues to work out with their parents, and they will learn much through their children, if they choose to have them.
All 48/12s will need to be cautious about letting their ambitions overreach their level of skill (the process issues of 4s) or their sense of integrity (the honesty issues of 8s). They will do well to remember that 'overnight successes' usually take years of preparation and initiation. If willing to follow a careful process, 48/12s will have the qualities to succeed at anything they choose — so long as they work in cooperation with others. The times into which 49/12s will be born will demand the best of them. Through their own careful work, in the process of overcoming their own challenges, they will develop the strength and clarity to blaze the trails and build bridges to support others as we cross into the new millennium.
Working 48/12 in the Positive
These individuals will learn the lessons of process through their experience: ‘When in a hurry, slow down’ and ‘Better to do it right than do it over’. In working through their own family issues, they will develop compassion and understanding. Creative troubleshooters, they will find the self-control, the integrated talents, and the drives to support the common good effectively and powerfully. Through creative service, they will find the recognition they desire. Happiest where the action is, in the center of the cyclone, they will serve where they can, in the way that gives them die most joy, often as pioneers of new frontiers.
Working 48/12 in the Negative
Caught in a maelstrom of change like a rigid tree in a high wind, these individuals will fight to maintain control in a world that feels out of control, reflecting their inner turbulence and frustrated ambition. Their creative energy will demand release, but they will withhold it, afraid of what it might do. They will bend over backward to help other people and then resent it. Stalinlike, they may end up ‘helping by command’, even in their own family. They will resent others’ authority until they find the courage to apply their own. Ambitious, they will want everything now, but they won't understand the time or effort it takes to achieve goals and so will end up brilliant failures. When they compromise their integrity, they will meet with short-term rewards but court long-term disaster. When they fall, they will fall hard.

Happiest where the action is, in the center of the cyclone, they will serve where they can, in the way that gives them die most joy, often as pioneers of new frontiers.
Working 48/12 in the Negative
Caught in a maelstrom of change like a rigid tree in a high wind, these individuals will fight to maintain control in a world that feels out of control, reflecting their inner turbulence and frustrated ambition. Their creative energy will demand release, but they will withhold it, afraid of what it might do. They will bend over backward to help other people and then resent it. Stalinlike, they may end up ‘helping by command’, even in their own family. They will resent others’ authority until they find the courage to apply their own. Ambitious, they will want everything now, but they won't understand the time or effort it takes to achieve goals and so will end up brilliant failures. When they compromise their integrity, they will meet with short-term rewards but court long-term disaster. When they fall, they will fall hard.
Life-path issues
Health
In almost every case, the state of health and vitality of 48/12s will depend upon the process they follow: If they learn patience and practice a regular regimen of conscious nutrition and exercise, their exceptionally strong disposition will sustain vigorous health. They will be susceptible to mind-produced stress and corresponding tension if they start to feel overly responsible or concerned with everyone else's life. In the worst case, their immune system will become compromised, with long-term debilitating effects. These symptoms will appear, however, only after long-term stress. Meditation practice can serve as a very direct means of reducing stress and enhancing die health of 48/12s by balancing their tendency toward aggressiveness.
Most 48/12s will tend to put on weight easily, especially if their creative energy is blocked. A low-fat, vegetarian or semi-vegetarian diet will work well for them in the long run. Regular, rather than intermittent, exercise will offer a stable process of training very important to 48/12s; otherwise, they may be prone to injuries of knees, ankles, or lower extremities. They may also have congenital (inherited) problems to deal with. Pursuing healing for these problems will serve to expand their sense of compassion for the afflictions of others. Physical training can also form the foundation of a strong body that will take them far in life and teach them deep lessons about the process of accomplishing any goal.
Relationships
At their best, 48/12s will be strong, loyal, dependable, and supportive, but their life will be based more on reason than romance. It's important that their mate or companions understand this and not hold unrealistic expectations of them. Any long-term relationships will have to be based on mutual support and cooperation. Feelings alone, or even sexual compatibility, may not be enough to satisfy their greater needs and ambitions. They will need a helpmate, not just a lover, or their circumstances may give them plenty of helpmates, and a lover may be all they lack. Sexuality will be important to 48/12s, not just as a means to satisfy their needs and use their creative energy, but also as a point of connection, providing one of the only settings where they show vulnerability.
Talents, Work, and Finances
The 4 energy will mean success in business due to a practical nature, as long as 48/12s don't skip any steps; the 8 energy will bring a drive for wealth, power, and recognition that will spur them to their goals. With patience, 48/12s will inevitably achieve all they set out to accomplish. Their creative energy and analytical skills will make it more likely that they'll form independent enterprises of their own. They can build structures, shape materials, or creatively troubleshoot. They enjoy pioneering new frontiers. Some 48/12s may become skilled mechanics, for example; others will found a family or a business empire that supports many people. They will tend to be innovators in many fields, from creative athletes to artist-entrepreneurs. With the blend of 4, 8, and 12, 48/12s will experience struggles as they move toward their goals, but with persistence, they will see their work come to fruition. If they make a clear commitment, build a solid foundation, and follow their plan step-by-step while staying flexible for contingencies, and if they serve the greater good, they will use money and authority doing what they love, working cooperatively with others.

30/3
3: Expression and Sensitivity
30: Expression and Sensitivity With Inner Gifts
30: Expression and Sensitivity With Inner Gifts
Understanding life purpose
Those on the 30/3 life path are here to work through issues of expression and sensitivity, overcoming self doubt to express themselves and use their inner gifts to encourage, uplift, and inspire others. Most people come into life to work a mixture of energies, but for 30/3s, their work and destiny are clear and focused. Those working 30/3 have the support of inner gifts, which include highly tuned sensitivity, inner strength, expressiveness, and intuition. All of these resources complement and support one major life theme: emotional expression. However, since our life purpose isn't what comes easiest, 30/3s have distinct hurdles to overcome before they can fulfill their destiny. Because 30/3s resonate with the perfectionism of 6s and feel acutely sensitive to the pain and suffering of others, they are prone to feeling disappointed and disheartened at times, and to expressing in negative ways, such as criticizing and complaining. They have an inherent drive to express themselves; this expression comes out in either positive or negative ways, but it comes out. Emotional expression may not come easily for 30/3s at first; they may start out inhibited, but once they get rolling, the words flow. The arena in which 30/3s express may be large, as in performance, teaching, or addressing large groups, or smaller, involving a circle of family and friends. In either case, the challenges and joys of 30/3s arise from expressing their feelings through speech or creative endeavours, such as painting, music, or other media, and from helping others to express their feelings as well. Their expression blossoms with other people, perhaps one on one at first. Eventually, if they draw forth the courage, many 30/3s find the opportunity to speak before groups of people. I often recommend public-speaking courses for 30/3s. Due to their innate emotional sensitivity, many 30/3s go a little numb or put up psychological armor as a defense against the emotional turbulence around them. They may appear unemotional to others, but strong, even passionate, feelings lie just beneath the surface.
Those working 30/3 long for passionate involvement and an emotional connection with others, and they often create intense dramas in their life to stir up emotions around them. Many 30/3s like to watch or act in soap operas, because of their drama and emotionality. They make good actors, because they can identify with emotions and model any quality. The inner gifts of expression, sensitivity, and spiritual discernment amplify 30/3s' already-existing sensitivity. People working other birth numbers, such as 12/3 and 21/3, are also here to express themselves, but 30/3s combine their innate sensitivity and expressive drive as 3s with the inner gifts of sensitivity and expressiveness. To the degree that 30/3s are in touch with their feelings, they have acutely developed intuitive powers. When they read the newspapers or turn their attention to the world around them, they fed what needs to be done, and they express it. Those working 30/3 need to focus on finding skillful means to express positive ways to deal with problems. They may feel fully justified in complaining, because they usually point out wrongs that do, indeed, need to be addressed, but the challenge for 30/3s is finding ways to channel and release their expressive energy constructively. They need to express themselves honestly and directly but in the most positive and effective ways. They need to focus on the solution, not the problem. This is good advice for anyone, but especially important for 30/3s, for as they describe the world, they see the world. If 3s in general make the best depressives, 30/3s, with extreme sensitivity and self-doubt, have depression down to a fine art. Flip-flopping between ‘I can do anything’ and ‘It's just too much for me — I'm not ready’, they sometimes slip from confident highs into emotional slumps, feeling the weight of self-doubt, a major issue that sometimes stops them in their tracks just when they are about to succeed.
Self-doubt tends to make 30/3s feel unprepared, not good enough, or not up to a task. Self-doubt can discourage and depress 30/3s until they see it as a challenge they are here to overcome, a hurdle for them to leap over as they push onward and upward. The greatest gift of 30/3s lies in expression and inspired communication. Whether through speaking, acting, writing, or art, they find joy in moving others emotionally, perhaps moving them to action, to change, or to happiness. In the positive, their effectiveness comes from an ability to speak with feeling — not just from the mind, but from the heart. People working 30/3 have obstacles to overcome before achieving such expressive magic, because our life purpose always holds special challenges. In general, 30/3s start out feeling less capable and more afraid of self-expression or public speaking than the average person who isn't working 3 energy. When they step into the arena, however, they find great satisfaction; they feel, in some fundamental way, that they are home.
Working 30/3 in the Positive
These individuals bring enthusiasm, compassion, understanding, and service into the world, in ways large or small, through their creative expression. Whatever their occupation, when they speak, they do so with attunement and sensitivity, and they uplift others. They are enthusiastic and connected to their emotions, and their expressiveness is passionate, forthright, and even inspired. They are honest in communicating their needs and feelings, neither manipulating nor allowing themselves to be manipulated. They manage their lives responsibly, not letting their own or other people's emotions run them. They use their inner gifts of expression, sensitivity, and intuition in the service of others, with a joy and altruism that further amplifies these resources, putting 30/3s in touch with the subtle aspects and mystery of existence.
Working 30/3 in the Negative
Depressed about the love they feel they lack from others, these individuals complain about the wrongs of society and of their life, feeling justified because there's much to criticize in this world. Needy and hypersensitive, they whine or manipulate instead of stating honestly and directly what they need, who they are, and how they feel. Some are completely blocked in their sexual natures, while others have trouble with emotional or sexual fidelity and often get into promiscuous situations.

Life-path issues
Health
Most 30/3s, especially those with suppressed emotions, experience vulnerability in the throat area due to blocked expression. If 30/3s feel a scratchy throat or a blockage there, they need to ask themselves, ‘What do I need to express that I'm holding back?’ Often, once they express what they feel, their throat quickly recuperates. Music that opens the heart, touches the emotions, and enlivens or uplifts is always healing for 30/3s, whose health or illness reflects their emotional state. Their heart and knees also feel sensitive and vulnerable at times. Those who have problems with misunderstanding, which 30/3s are prone to because of their issues with expression, often get energy blockages around the knees, which over time affect the circulation and eventually the physical structure. Those working 30/3 need to eat and exercise according to what feels right to them intuitively—what feels emotionally as well as physically good. But they need to take care not to be run by their moods or to seek emotional consolation in the form of food or self-pampering when they are feeling lovelorn. When they are feeling blue, expansive exercise to music lifts their spirits.
Relationships
Nearly all 30/3s have a needy emotional quality that says, ‘appreciate me’; they look for this emotional support in the outside world rather than in themselves. Although they sometimes expect a lot without giving back in return, they also have a great capacity to give. Although 30/3s can appear unemotional, even coldly rational, as a reaction to their sensitivity, they have an extremely large and sensitive emotional energy field. Their voice usually reveals their feeling nature, and their ability to tune into others' feelings enhances their relationships. Despite appearances to the contrary, 30/3s are romantics at heart. They love to fall in love, and they periodically get emotional ‘crushes’. They need to be very direct and straightforward about this tendency with their partner if they have one. When they feel free to express feeling attracted to someone, this helps clear any obsessive tendencies toward the current attraction. In other words, they can have more lasting relationships by acknowledging and expressing, but not acting upon, infatuations that pass through their lives. Sometimes their emotions run them, and they get involved in promiscuous situations or infidelities (whether real or imagined) and then wonder what happened. The emotional aura or energy field of 30/3s is their primary ‘erogenous zone’. If their emotions are shut down, sexual technique doesn't help. When in a loving mood, however, they are moved by passion — technique is secondary.Relationships, for 30/3s, present a monumental opportunity to work through issues of honest expression and emotional vulnerability. They do well to view relationships not only as a form of consolation and nurturance, but as a form of spiritual practice.
Talents, Work, and Finances
With their inner gifts of expression, sensitivity, and intuition — and their developed expressive abilities—30/3s help to uplift and nourish others around them in their immediate world or in a larger arena. They may choose to be teachers, salespeople, writers, or lecturers — any role that reminds people of the feeling side of their lives. They have inherent gifts in any form of teaching, counseling, healing, performing, or creative expression due to their ability to tune into people and subtle dimensions. Those working 30/3 can also follow a social service path, and they tend to make good managers. They can be successful in any field, but they feel most fulfilled if their work offers opportunities for self-expression. In addition to their emotional sensitivity, those working 30/3 also have a superb depth of intuitive intelligence that cuts to the heart of some of life's core issues. Therefore, they do well in any field that involves clear logic and reason. Any lack of money relates in some way to self-doubt. If 30/3s use their gifts and expression in the positive, money follows.

2: Cooperation and Balance
Understanding life purpose
Those on the 21/3 or 12/3 life path are here to work through issues of creativity, emotional expression, balance, and cooperation in support of people or causes, applying their energy in positive, constructive ways to teach, uplift, and inspire. To face the inevitable challenges of their life path, 21/3s and 12/3s need courage to overcome the insecurity and self-doubt that may hinder them and need to learn to channel their creative and emotional energies in positive ways. Otherwise, when burdened by doubt or feeling insecure, they may tend to discharge their energies in self-destructive ways, through alcohol, tobacco, or other drugs. If 21/3s or 12/3s suppress their emotional expression, they experience that suppression in their body as physical tension or a variety of other symptoms. Those working 21/3 or 12/3 are among the most well-rounded, versatile, creative people on Earth. With the 2 providing support and strength, both 21/3s and 12/3s can invent, innovate, synthesize, or package impressive works in any field of endeavor. They can express their creativity through any form or material, and the spirit of their message still comes through. With the first two numbers {1 and 2) in different order, for 21/3s, creativity issues (1) are more pressing, whereas for 12/3s, cooperation (2) issues predominate, due to these numbers' relative position and influence.
Both 21/3s and 12/3s, however, share the same primary issues of sensitivity, self-doubt, and emotional expression so focused in 30/3s. By virtue of their life purpose, they face issues of negative expression, such as criticizing and complaining. In most cases, they express in negative ways when their feelings are hurt. Even though 21/3s and 12/3s have a high degree of emotional sensitivity, they have a strong tendency to intellectualise their emotions rather than express their sensitive, and rather insecure, natures. They respond to the feelings of insecurity associated with creative energy either by appearing insecure or, far more often, by developing a courageous but false compensatory persona of dry intellectualism or an overconfident, outgoing bravado to veil a sensitive self, struggling with self-doubt. In 12/3s, 2 issues predominate over 1 issues; although slightly less insecure, 12/3s have stronger issues with finding a balance between giving 'too much' and then shutting down. Most 21/3s tend toward emotional neediness; they need to focus on letting their emotions flow out to others, as they tend toward emotional 'stinginess' and withholding. The destiny of both 21/3s and 12/3 involves expressing themselves in their chosen way positively and honestly. When they are dishonest, their dishonesty usually entails holding back their true or authentic feelings rather than outright lying or deceit. They achieve expressive honesty by confronting and revealing their own emotional nature, integrating the sensitive parts of themselves that they have disowned for fear of appearing too weak or needy. Because they feed off emotional connections, they can, indeed, be needy, but they are certainly not weak.
Although they have internal strength and endurance associated with 2, most 21/3s and 12/3s, like most 30/3s, have very sensitive emotional energy fields as well is creative energy that needs to be moved into the world. They tend to be more constricted than 30/3s, and their sensitive, emotional nature is not as easy to see as that of 30/3s. Instead of intellectualising their emotions, 21/3s and 12/3s need to show and express their fears, their anger, their hurt, and their joy, becoming emotionally present and real. When they do, their bodies also open up, relax, and rejuvenate. As they discard their false personas, lay their emotional cards on the table, and show their insecurities and vulnerable feelings openly, 21/3s and 12/3s find, to their surprise, a deeper, richer, more nourishing emotional bond with others and with themselves. Such self-revelation is no small task. Before they can open up, they have to overcome deep-seated fears of rejection, self-doubt, and insecurity. The Law of Action is key in clearing shadows from the subconscious, such as their fear of exploding with anger or collapsing with sorrow, which stifles emotional expression. With time and experience, 21/3s and 12/3s develop genuine confidence instead of false bravado and exhibit emotional generosity, which flows out to those around them.
Working 21/3 or 12/3 in the Positive
These individuals do brilliant and sensitive work; they include some of the most creative people on the planet. Their body is relaxed, supple, and relatively free of tension because they express their feelings as they arise, honestly and openly, rather than storing them as neuromuscular tensions. They breathe deeply and easily. Their relationships thrive on honesty and emotional acceptance; when problems arise, they talk those problems over and resolve them. These individuals feel genuine pleasure in uplifting others through their caring words, whether through teaching, acting, singing, writing, or working in a grocery store. The occupation doesn't matter, as long as they have opportunities to reach out to people and build emotional bridges.
Working 21/3 or 12/3 in the Negative
These hypersensitive individuals give mixed messages; they act confident and then collapse under the weight of criticism. They come back with cutting remarks and hurt back or withdraw, all without revealing their authentic feelings. Over time, their physical tension and lack of suppleness reflect the degree of emotion they are suppressing. Filled with self-doubt and stifled emotions, insecurity and blocked creativity, stubbornness and reactivity, they fool no one but themselves.
Both 21/3s and 12/3s, however, share the same primary issues of sensitivity, self-doubt, and emotional expression so focused in 30/3s. By virtue of their life purpose, they face issues of negative expression, such as criticizing and complaining. In most cases, they express in negative ways when their feelings are hurt. Even though 21/3s and 12/3s have a high degree of emotional sensitivity, they have a strong tendency to intellectualise their emotions rather than express their sensitive, and rather insecure, natures.

Because they feed off emotional connections, they can, indeed, be needy, but they are certainly not weak.
Although they have internal strength and endurance associated with 2, most 21/3s and 12/3s, like most 30/3s, have very sensitive emotional energy fields as well is creative energy that needs to be moved into the world. They tend to be more constricted than 30/3s, and their sensitive, emotional nature is not as easy to see as that of 30/3s. Instead of intellectualising their emotions, 21/3s and 12/3s need to show and express their fears, their anger, their hurt, and their joy, becoming emotionally present and real. When they do, their bodies also open up, relax, and rejuvenate. As they discard their false personas, lay their emotional cards on the table, and show their insecurities and vulnerable feelings openly, 21/3s and 12/3s find, to their surprise, a deeper, richer, more nourishing emotional bond with others and with themselves. Such self-revelation is no small task. Before they can open up, they have to overcome deep-seated fears of rejection, self-doubt, and insecurity. The Law of Action is key in clearing shadows from the subconscious, such as their fear of exploding with anger or collapsing with sorrow, which stifles emotional expression. With time and experience, 21/3s and 12/3s develop genuine confidence instead of false bravado and exhibit emotional generosity, which flows out to those around them.
Working 21/3 or 12/3 in the Positive
These individuals do brilliant and sensitive work; they include some of the most creative people on the planet. Their body is relaxed, supple, and relatively free of tension because they express their feelings as they arise, honestly and openly, rather than storing them as neuromuscular tensions. They breathe deeply and easily. Their relationships thrive on honesty and emotional acceptance; when problems arise, they talk those problems over and resolve them. These individuals feel genuine pleasure in uplifting others through their caring words, whether through teaching, acting, singing, writing, or working in a grocery store. The occupation doesn't matter, as long as they have opportunities to reach out to people and build emotional bridges.
Working 21/3 or 12/3 in the Negative
These hypersensitive individuals give mixed messages; they act confident and then collapse under the weight of criticism. They come back with cutting remarks and hurt back or withdraw, all without revealing their authentic feelings. Over time, their physical tension and lack of suppleness reflect the degree of emotion they are suppressing. Filled with self-doubt and stifled emotions, insecurity and blocked creativity, stubbornness and reactivity, they fool no one but themselves.
Life-path issues
Health
This is one of the physically strongest patterns, with the vigour of 2 and the energy of 1. Like 30/3s, both 21/3s and 12/3s have sensitive throat regions and may experience occasional flare-ups when their expression is blocked; if this condition is chronic, they may eventually require surgery. If their creative energies are blocked or suppressed, they may encounter issues in the lower abdomen or reproductive areas — for example, stomach problems, hernias, or difficulties with the ovaries in women or prostate in men. Generally, however, 21/3s and 12/3s are physically strong and robust. If they repress their feelings, this is like corking up a volcano; their body feels the effects of stopping up the energy that is meant to flow freely. As long as they pay attention to expressing their creative energy in the positive and keeping their emotions open and flowing, both 21/3s and 12/3s enjoy exceptional health. When they do need healing, they do best to combine whatever treatment they get with some form of emotional healing. Listening to emotional music or even going to emotional movies gives these sensitive, creative people a chance to express themselves. If they can't even cry at the movies, they definitely need to explore the ways they are blocking expression. For 21/3s and 12/3s, excess weight usually reflects blocked creativity. A two-faceted program of balanced exercise and a creative hobby can bring their body to optimal balance. For these individuals, exercise is a good way to clear suppressed emotions. Because of their creative, emotional nature, 21/3s and 12/3s feel attuned to nature and music, which soothe their sensitive character. Listening to music and taking walks outdoors can help them heal and recharge on emotional and physical levels.
Relationships
The key to relationships for 21/3s and 12/3s entails a willingness to ‘lose face’ and find themselves by expressing what they feel, in the moment. They benefit from asking themselves periodically during the day, ‘How do 1 really feel right now?’ Once they tune in to how they're feeling, it's important that they express these feelings in some way — not just the safe, 'okay' feelings, but also anger, impatience, shame, embarrassment, jealousy, and competitiveness. This practice begins a process of emotional awakening and physical rejuvenation. Both 12/3s and especially 21/3s often experience a masked form of insecurity in their relationships. For example, they may flirt to see if others still find them attractive, or they may feel or act competitive with their partner for fear of failing into a subordinate position. When they're doing creative work, 21/3s and, to a lesser degree, 12/3s may have little time or energy for relationships. Because 21/3s and 12/3s sometimes block emotionally charged negative feelings, such as anger or sorrow, they sometimes withdraw emotionally. The wall they build also keeps out the positive feelings of love, affection, and passion. They may need to take part in some good arguments during which they stay emotionally and physically present. Such an outlet of expression can bring back old passions. The core of a strong relationship for 21/3s and 12/3s is emotional contact, even if this means passionate
arguments. The 2 means that those on both of these similar life paths need to find a balance of giving and receiving so that they don't over-give, only to withdraw resentfully later on.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Both 21/3s and 12/3s display a strong combination of creative and expressive energy for writing, designing, speaking, debating, advising, promoting, or engaging in any creative field. Although they are extremely versatile, 21/3s and 12/3s are happiest when expressing and creating while supporting and uplifting others. No matter what their work, 21/3s and 12/3s generally confront some self-doubt and insecurity. With persistence, they earn positive feedback and support from others, and their confidence grows. The well-rounded energies of 21/3s and 12/3s make for useful, innovative work. When they get past the double hurdles of self-doubt and insecurity and let their feelings and creative juices flow, so will their finances.

40: Stability and Process With Inner Gifts
Understanding life purpose
Those on the 40/4 life path are here to establish secure foundations in their life by following a gradual process to their goals, applying their inner gifts in a spirit of service on behalf of people or causes they value. Like 20/2s and 30/3s, 40/4s have a very focused life purpose, undiluted by other numbers and energies. Because our central purpose rarely comes easily, many 40/4s may have trouble feeling grounded or following a long, sometimes arduous process to reach their goals. They may skip or ignore necessary steps, or feel stuck in situations that no longer work. Individuals working 40/4 need to develop a pattern of success by making short-term commitments and following through, gradually expanding the time frame until long-term commitments become feasible. In the same manner, by breaking down big goals and plans into small steps and focusing on completing one step before going to the next, 40/4s create an inner foundation and process that supports them throughout their life. When working in the positive, 40/4s combine a superb analytical ability with their inner gifts of profound strength and persistence; sensitivity, which balances their strength; expressiveness; and clear intuition. When 40/4s free themselves from analytical loops and trust their gut feelings, they can make inspired, practical, and even brilliant decisions. Their sensitivity and strength act as powerful, synergistic allies — combining the grace of a ballet dancer with the strength of a bull. However, when stuck in over-analysis, they end up feeling confused and disoriented. Although 20/2s and 40/4s have many similar strengths, tendencies, and issues, 2072s deal more with issues of responsibility, internal balance, and cooperation; with 40/4s, a stable foundation and a clear, step-by-step process stand paramount. Once 40/4s ground their energy in practical ways, they can apply their refined intuition to support others and to experience more clarity and fun in life.
All 40/4s have the potential of bringing forth their rich resources, indicated by the zero in their birth number, but they can only develop their gifts through a process of preparation and practice, which may include some form of schooling. Like all 4s, 40/4s don't tend to enjoy slow, patient progress; more often, what's in the distance feels too far away and they want it now, or the path to their goals feels confusing. It's especially important for 40/4s to trust their gut feelings (physically based intuition) when making decisions, rather than trying to figure out and weigh everything in their heads, where they go in circles. Due to an exceptionally strong sense of responsibility that sometimes extends far beyond appropriate boundaries, 40/4s tend to think in terms of what they ‘should’ do rather than what they really desire. Like all 4s, 40/4s can also project ‘shoulds’ on other people. Most 40/4s are even more stubborn than 20/2s (who have less confusion between mind and emotions). Because of their stubbornness, 40/4s don't want to change, adapt, or move. Life may have to provide hard lessons before they get the message.
Nearly all 40/4s have a hard time letting go of old relationships, past decisions, or prior events — and letting go of the past, in general. Therefore, they can suffer from regrets: 'If only I had said something'. They need to observe this tendency and the pain it brings and come to a point of faith, or trust, in their process; whatever decisions they have made have taught them and brought them to where they now stand. The Law of Process serves as one key toward the fulfilment of 40/4s' destiny: First things first, lay the groundwork, and then take one step at a time. The ultimate success or failure of 40/4s in business, relationships, or other areas of life depends largely upon whether or not they follow the Law of Process and, secondarily, the Law of Patterns. Like 22/4s and 20/2s, 40/4s tend to bounce from over-analysis to emotional impulsiveness or hysteria, and they need to balance and integrate mind and emotions. When 40/4s combine their powerful analytical ability with their intuition, they demonstrate unusual clarity and foresight.
Working 40/4 in the Positive
These individuals prepare thoroughly for any task, and they patiently follow a step-by-step process to reach their goals. They can be
counted on to follow through with any commitment, and others perceive them as stable and trustworthy friends and advisers. When making decisions, they consider and analyze their options and also trust their gut feelings. They have worked out any family issues to create the best relationship with parents that is feasible. These 40/4s display exceptional fortitude, but they also make use of their subtle gifts and intuition. They persist through hardships and obstacles, no matter how long it takes, and they remain flexible if they reach an impasse. They have created a stable home situation. Relying on intuition and faith, they eventually find the situations and opportunities to suit their interests and abilities.
Working 40/4 in the Negative
These individuals don't trust their intuition, and thus they find decision making a stressful, confusing exercise. Stuck in the mind's never-ending analyses, they go in circles trying to answer questions such as "How can I make things happen?" They end up making impulsive decisions they later regret. Their relationships tend to be unstable and short-lived. They have trouble with commitment or staying put with anyone or anything for very long, so they repeat the same patterns of hello-goodbye. Their stubbornness and unyielding views get in the way of the compromise inherent in any relationship. Impulsive and self-deceiving, they tend to start and stop a task without completing it.

Life-path issues
Health
Although 40/4s are usually sturdy and resistant to illness (and practically everything else), they may have problems with their hips, thighs, knees, ankles, or feet — the foundation of their body. Physical constipation often indicates repressed drives and desires, as when they do what they think they "should" do rather than listening to their intuition. Like 20/2s, they may have allergies, but they are more likely than 20/2s to suffer accidents arising out of impatience or impulsive action. Many 40/4s also have congenital problems or physical issues stemming from childhood. Their body tends to be either stocky or very long. Many 40/4s put on weight easily, so a low-fat, even completely vegetarian diet, along with aerobic exercise, generally works well for them. Especially useful are forms of exercise that counterbalance 40/4s' strength with stretching and relaxation, such as yoga, dance, aikido, tai chi, or other martial arts.
Relationships
In the negative, 40/4s, like 20/2s, can appear pushy, meddling, bossy, or controlling, when actually they just feel overly responsible for everyone in their universe. They can also have trouble with stability. In the positive, they're as stable and supportive as the Rock of Gibraltar. They also have a strong, even if sometimes subconscious, attraction to raising families. They may bring tensions or energy blocks to their sexual relationship, but yoga or stretching and relaxation exercises help them open up and enjoy the sexual aspects of their nature. The more 40/4s get "out of their head" — "lose their mind and come to their senses," as Timothy Leary put it — the better their relationships.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Due to their excellent analytical skills and intuition as well as to their inherent need for secure foundations, 40/4s do well in any form of business. They may feel confused when making their own decisions, but they make excellent advisers, organizers, financiers, or real estate counselors. They feel most satisfied when their business actively helps or supports other people. Service oriented, they do well as care givers in the fields of nursing or social work, for example, but they also can excel in other fields, including sports and athletics—wherever qualities of persistence, strength, sensitivity, and analytical abilities apply- As long as they follow the Law of Process and use their energy in practical ways, 40/4s find success.

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 22/4 life path are here to work through issues of cooperation, responsibility, and process to establish a stable and secure foundation, achieving their goals through a patient process involving mutually supportive teamwork. However, since our life purpose entails special challenges, 22/4s have strong tendencies to over-cooperate, giving their all and then falling into resentment and withdrawal. Their ambitions can also create blind spots, so they tend to skip necessary steps on the path to their goal. For them, failure is useful feedback if they're paying attention. When 22/4s run into problems, they need to determine which step they skipped and redo it; this releases any pattern of failure. No challenge is too great if 22/4s break it down into small, manageable portions. For 22/4s, the double 2 has a strong influence in determining the characteristics and issues of the life path. The first 2 deals especially and almost totally with inner cooperation; thus, the fulfillment of the destiny of 22/4s begins with their integration of conflicting beliefs, values, or tendencies. When the life of 22/4s feels problematic, they need to go back to their own inner foundation and, through therapy or other means, harmonise their inner world before trying to organize and control their environment. The second 2 for 22/4s focuses on outer cooperation — relating with others, honoring their own and others' boundaries, and finding the critical balance between giving too much and shutting down.
Nearly all 22/4s have strong analytical and structuring capacities, but when 22/4s use these capacities to excess, their mind whirls in over-analysis or compulsive worrying until it finally shuts down and reactive emotions or impulsive action take over. Impulsive actions then lead to regrets. As for all 2s, balance and integration are key; the aim is to blend mind and emotions, balancing logic with intuition, rather than resorting to extremes. When 22/4s feel confused, they benefit from writing their ideas down and then trusting their instincts — following their gut feeling — for final decisions. Those working 22/4 need to apply clear, realistic insight and self-compassion in confronting their issues; otherwise, they may react to an overwhelming sense of responsibility by putting on blinders, ignoring feedback, and going into denial, leaving imbalances and problems unacknowledged. Most 22/4s have strong, focused, sometimes rigid opinions, and they don't always listen well to contradictory ideas because they have so many of their own. When the double 2 and the 4 work together, 22/4s have exceptional vigour and potential. How that potential manifests depends upon how they align their life with the spiritual laws key to their destiny. With the 4 energy, 22/4s have strength, fortitude, and endurance, but if their life is to proceed toward the fulfillment of their destiny, all depends on making the journey in small, sure steps, and checking to make sure that they have established a solid foundation before proceeding. When this pattern is worked in the positive, 22/4s meet with extraordinary achievement.
Working 22/4 in the Positive
These clear-thinking, centered individuals can accomplish whatever they set out to do, by a process of small steps, turning stumbling blocks along the way into stepping-stones. When they fail, they learn from their mistakes and do not repeat them. They have learned hard lessons, but over time the lessons have gotten easier. They have found the balance point between giving too much and giving too little. They live from a stable center of internal harmony and cooperation. They serve others only to the point they feel good and clear about their service. Relatively free of worry and stress, they allow their body to relax into life; their mind focuses on the present as they plan the next small step along the way.
Working 22/4 in the Negative
These individuals always seem to verge on the edge of one crisis or another. They are frequently frantic, even hysterical. They experience inner confusion and stress. Making impulsive decisions they later regret, they stubbornly hold their course and repeat the same mistakes. Their forceful, rigid views create anger when others don't do what these individuals think they should. As master codependents, they over-give to the point of depletion. They form intense relationships, which they throw themselves into at first and then cut themselves off from, feeling alienated and resentful. Generally impatient, they want to get everything done now, without going through the necessary step-by-step process.

Life-path issues
Health
Most 22/4s are slim, strong, and wiry, but they are sometimes overweight due to other factors (such as childhood abuse or lack of good education on nutrition). They may suffer accidents because of their impulsive action or mental distraction. When they take responsibility for themselves instead of for everyone else, their health remains strong. As long as they run their life in an orderly fashion and don't get overly stressed, they have one of the sturdier constitutions. Since the center of their life is service and support of others, 22/4s rarely become too self-indulgent with food; for the most part, they prefer quality to quantity. Food is just something to obtain between tasks and goals, and meals are often catch-as-catch-can. Nearly all 22/4s do well with exercises and movements that develop flexibility, relaxation, and flow; dance, aerobics with stretching, yoga, aikido, tai chi, or other martial arts. These practices emphasise step-by-step skill training and working with partners in a give-and-take way that can help balance their already-strong bodies and their often rigid temperaments better than, say, weight training.

As a foundation for all of their relationships, most 22/4s need to clarify their interactions with their parents. All 22/4s work with foundation energy; their early home life represents the base on which they build. Since our central purpose brings up issues to work through, most 22/4s likely have issues to work out with one or both parents or siblings. Most people have some issues to work out with parents, but it's especially important for 22/4s (like any 4s) to deal with these. This doesn't mean getting parents' approval or even agreement, but it does mean talking, sharing views, agreeing to disagree, and being authentic rather than denying or avoiding old resentments. Most 22/4s also learn much through their relationship with their own children or with other children they care for or mentor. Most 22/4s tend to take care of others' needs in a functional manner. They tend to be highly responsible and protective care givers, but they aren't usually sentimental, favoring practicality over emotional nurturance. If, for example, their child gets a cut, they won't necessarily fuss over it; they'll efficiently clean the cut and get a bandage.
In other relationships, 22/4s are generally practical, direct, confident, and forthright; to balance these qualities, they also need to take the time to slow down, relax, breathe, feel, and bring sensitivity and empathy into their love relationships. Especially in this arena, 22/4s need to focus on what they really feel, not just on what they think they want or think they ‘should’ do. In the positive, most 22/4s can make extraordinary efforts to serve and support those they love. But when the negative aspects of their strength are activated, their emotional reactivity and strong, often rigid views of how other people ‘should’ behave don't always make for smooth relationships. Also, since their temperament swings from over-accommodating to resistant, they aren't always inclined to compromise or to listen to others' feedback. In the positive, however, their intrinsic loyalty and brightness make the effort worthwhile. Having a partner who doesn't have control issues and is easygoing helps their relationships flow more smoothly. Sexuality for 22/4s tends toward the earthy, vital, and functional; lovemaking may be robust, but not always romantic or slow and sensual. Additionally, some 22/4s, like other 4s, have encountered forms of emotional, physical, or sexual abuse that need to be worked through before their sexual lives can blossom.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Strength, persistence, common sense, and fortitude can take 22/4s as far as they want to go, as long as they are willing to go through the process to get there. They feel deep satisfaction when using their special talents to support others in service, whether within their family or in teaching, advising, and business enterprises. Their practical organisational and analytical skills help them excel in many other fields. Because 22/4s like to know what is expected of them, they generally feel attracted to anything practical, with clear limits, boundaries, and measures of success. A strong quality of 22/4s related to their approach to work and life involves issues of cooperation. After having their fill of doing what everyone else wanted or expected of them in their childhood, many 22/4s develop maverick qualities later in life and, like 22/4 Frank Sinatra, ‘do it their way’. Their strong orientation toward security means financial stability is a priority; they achieve it through high energy and focused work. As long as they approach their goals step-by-step and remember to enjoy the process, they prosper.

Most 22/4s are slim, strong, and wiry, but they are sometimes overweight due to other factors (such as childhood abuse or lack of good education on nutrition). They may suffer accidents because of their impulsive action or mental distraction. When they take responsibility for themselves instead of for everyone else, their health remains strong. As long as they run their life in an orderly fashion and don't get overly stressed, they have one of the sturdier constitutions. Since the center of their life is service and support of others, 22/4s rarely become too self-indulgent with food; for the most part, they prefer quality to quantity. Food is just something to obtain between tasks and goals, and meals are often catch-as-catch-can. Nearly all 22/4s do well with exercises and movements that develop flexibility, relaxation, and flow; dance, aerobics with stretching, yoga, aikido, tai chi, or other martial arts. These practices emphasise step-by-step skill training and working with partners in a give-and-take way that can help balance their already-strong bodies and their often rigid temperaments better than, say, weight training.

3: Expression and Sensitivity
Understanding life purpose
Those an the 31/4 or 13/4 life path are here to work through issues of stability, creativity, and emotional expression, learning to channel their energy in constructive ways and to master a step-by-step process to their goals. Since our life purpose doesn't come easily, 31/4s have to overcome self-doubt and insecurity to develop the confidence necessary to follow a long, sometimes arduous process to reach their goals. Until then, they operate on hopes, wishes, or enthusiastic illusions. Since both 31/4s and 13/4s are here to ground their energy and develop secure foundations, they often confront tendencies toward instability and lack of commitment, which run counter to their life purpose. To overcompensate for insecurity, many 31/4s develop highly ambitious, even egotistical personas — ‘big egos’ that work to prove their worth as they strive to stay in a superior position due to fears of inferiority beneath the surface. The combination of strong foundation energy, creative energy, and expressive energy gives 31/4s and 13/4s a well-balanced, synergistic blend of strength, sensitivity, and creativity. This blend of energies, combined with a drive for security and strong ambitions, creates a multifaceted potential for success. When these qualities and drives are working in harmony, 31/4s and 13/4s can accomplish their highest aspirations. But if these same qualities and drives work against one another or manifest in negative ways, then frustration and failures cloud their life.
The willingness to pursue and persist in a gradual process is essential to bringing the highest creativity and expression of 31/4s and 13/4s into the world. Whether their foundation rests on family, home, land, education, or work, this foundation forms the stable base for expanding out into life. A secure "home base" and a safe, settled, orderly environment amplify these individuals' impact many times over. Bursts of inspiration or spurts of energy do not substitute for diligent work over time. The life they build depends upon the preparations they make and the process they follow. The order and relative influence of 1 and 3 result in the only significant difference between 31/4s and 13/4s: With 31/4s, creative energy has a stronger influence than expressive energy; with 13/4s, expressive issues predominate. For 31/4s, strong creative drives, a confident, outgoing persona, and a constant striving for success veil an underlying insecurity. They can be highly competitive because they feel they need to prove themselves to overcome their fear of not measuring up, of inferiority. Most 13/4s, on the other hand, feel more acute self-doubt, which manifests as a fear of insufficient capacity and appears, from time to time, like storm clouds in an otherwise clear sky. Other than these slight differences in emphasis, 31/4s and 13/4s have nearly identical drives and issues: They both show strong drives for creative expression. They share strength, ambition, and a desire for status. The twin shadows of self-doubt and insecurity confront both 31/4s and 13/4s with worthy challenges on the way to manifesting their strength and achieving success.
A key concept for 31/4s and 13/4s is that success in terms of their life purpose lies not so much in achieving the end product as in their ability to go through the necessary process. Many 31/4s and 13/4s have experienced difficult family histories, sometimes entailing physical abuse by at least one parent or perhaps a military childhood that meant they had to move around and never had a stable home life. Because our life purpose doesn't come easily, they have had hurdles to overcome in the area of establishing strong foundations. Even if they come from relatively stable households, 31/4s and 13/4s benefit from working through issues of animosity, resentment, misunderstanding, or other turmoil to rebuild a sense of stable foundation. They need to express all of their emotions, including anger and resentment, before they can express their love. They don't have to agree with their parents, but they need to bring any issues into the open and express their feelings, even if their parents are deceased. Both 31/4s and 13/4s can also learn many lessons from their own children or other children. Because 31/4s and 13/4s tend to experience a division rather than an integration between mind and emotions, they especially need to blend emotional intuition with mental clarity. When making a decision, they can ask, ‘What would my calmest, clearest, most aware self do right now?’. By trusting their gut feelings, they can avoid confusion; otherwise, they tend to analyze everything to death. Once they feel clarity, they can teach it to others.
As for other 4s, the primary challenge and hurdle for 31/4s and 13/4s involves following a step-by-step process — remembering that even the most overwhelming goal is easier when broken down into small steps. Since the life purpose of 31/4s and 13/4s, which involves process, does not come easily, a part of them hates things that take a long time and a slow, careful process to achieve. Combining the inherent impatience of 4 with the creative inspiration of 1, many 31/4s and 13/4s like things to happen quickly, even magically. On the other hand, the self-doubt of 3 may slow them down and lead to over-preparation or obsession with one step. Those 31/4s and 13/4s who have previously moved through a structured process, such as athletes, musicians, or anyone who has stuck with a process of skill training, are way ahead of the game, because they have a template or model they can apply to anything else they do. Once 31/4s and 13/4s create a stable environment, see past insecurity and self-doubt, and find the patience to follow a step-by-step process to their goals, it's only a matter of time before they reach them.
Working 31/4 or 13/4 in the Positive
These individuals have developed a sound financial base as well as a personal base of family, friends, and associates. They make decisions by blending head (analysis) and heart (intuition), and they have learned to trust the process of their life. Well-rounded achievers, they have followed goals to completion as they have learned skills, and they use that understanding to reach any goal. Dependable and stable, they have the blend of strength, flexibility, sensitivity, and creative sparkle that serves as a source of practical support and encouragement to others.
Working 31/4 or 13/4 in the Negative
Even if they have a place to live, these individuals lack an inner sense of stability; it's as if they were living out of a suitcase. Uncommitted and lacking follow-through, they never feel sure how long they'll stay in one place, in one job, or with one person. Ambitious but impatient, they touch down many places, but they don't put down roots. Confusion underlies their lack of commitment; they don't feel sure of what they're ‘supposed’ to be doing. They think one thing and feel another, so they don't know what they want. This split between mind and emotions leads to impulsive decisions and then obsessive regrets. They experience more starts and stops than completions. With their unrealistic expectations, they want to be a success without going through the process to get there. Their outward bravado or superior air covers up feelings of self-doubt and insecurity.

Life-path issues
Health
The strength of 31/4s and 13/4s, amplified by creative energy, gives them robust appeal, ruggedness, and resistance to everyday illness. Their body type tends to be either wide bodied and bottom heavy or solidly athletic, depending largely upon genetics and lifestyle; either way, they are basically strong. However, they are vulnerable at ‘foundation points’, such as ankles, knees, thighs, and hips. Mental stress or resistance can create physical as well as energetic constipation and can compromise the immune system. Forms of meditation, relaxation, suppleness training, and free movement, such as the martial arts of aikido or tai chi, are all useful — as is anything that teaches them to blend, flow, and accept rather than resist. Forms of physical skill training, such as dance or martial arts, offer special benefits because they help turn rigid strength into supple, dynamic power and give 31/4s and 13/4s a direct experience of following a process and experiencing improvement over time. These individuals thrive on exercise and particularly enjoy social sports. Given the varied 3, 1, and 4 energies, 31/4s and 13/4s have no predictable dietary tendencies, but a balanced, low-fat diet serves as a good foundation. If 31/4s and 13/4s are overweight, their success in losing their excess weight depends upon their willingness to follow a gradual process toward a lifestyle of less fat and more exercise; fitful, heroic efforts directed toward quick results at best bring only temporary results. The success of 31/4s and 13/4s in this or any enterprise depends upon a patient, persistent approach.
Relationships
The easy sociability of 31/4s and 13/4s attracts many friends and admirers. They tend to be gregarious, family oriented, and generally
relaxed with people. But their air of confidence often hides an insecurity they are wise to acknowledge to themselves and others in order to achieve a new level of authenticity. In their vulnerability, they can find new strength. Since 4 issues lead them toward self-deception or denial, both 31/4s and 13/4s may discover that confession is, indeed, good for the soul. By confessing their sensitive or insecure qualities, 31/4s and 13/4 find they have less to defend, less to prove, and fewer people they have to impress; this leads to a greater sense of inner solidity. Most 31/4s and 13/4s are ‘salt of the earth’, stable, loyal, constant partners, or they have difficulty staying put or making real emotional commitments. Even when they say, "I do," they may leave the back door open. Part of them desires stability and security more than anything, but part of them resists that very goal because our life purpose doesn't necessarily come easily. When they see relationship as a process of ups and downs, entailing learning, maturation, and mutual support, 31/4s and 13/4s come to appreciate relationship as a challenging form of spiritual training rather than ‘the same old thing’. In the sexual arena, 31/4s and 13/4s need to work through the ‘nonsexual’ issues of self-doubt, insecurity, and lack of commitment. Then past experiences of abuse or their subconscious resistance and physical tension may get in the way of satisfying sexual expression. However, on the positive side, they tend to be strong, vital, earthy, and creative lovers.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Due to their array of creative and expressive energies and their sound analytical abilities, both 31/4s and 13/4s find success in a variety of careers, often, but not necessarily, centered in some form of business, advising, or counseling in real estate or investments. However, they also do well in fields as divergent as coaching, service to family, architecture, engineering, or any form of creative communication that supports people. In the positive, their practical creativity, developed over time, leads to the security they desire. If they're patient and thorough, one step leads to the next. But they need to remember that ‘overnight successes’ can take years — and many small steps — to achieve.

3: Expression and Sensitivity
2: Cooperation and Balance
3: Expression and Sensitivity
Understanding life purpose
Those on the 32/5 or 23/5 life path are here to work through issues related to independence, emotional honesty, and cooperation, finally experiencing freedom through discipline and depth of experience. Since our life path presents hurdles to overcome, both 32/5s and 23/5s confront internal challenges, tendencies, and conflicts in areas of dependence and independence, responsibility, and honest expression of emotion. Individuals working 32/5 or 23/5 are nearly identical in terms of the fundamental energies of their birth number, the only difference being the reversed order of the 3 and 2. Most 23/5s tend to be late bloomers, taking longer to come into their confidence due to the more predominant 3 energy, with its issues of sensitivity and self-doubt; they also have stronger fears along with a stronger drive toward expression than 32/5s. Most 32/5s have deeper issues around cooperation than their counterparts; they tend to give their all for someone, even letting go of their own multifaceted identity and, chameleon-like, adapting to the values, interests, and desires of their partner. Then, somewhere down the line, to the degree they have ignored their own needs, they may withdraw emotionally or become resentful. This is not to say that 32/5s don't display the self-doubt of 23/5s or that 23/5s don't have the issues around cooperation of their 32/5 counterparts, but the relative influence of 2 and 3 energies differs in
each case based on their position in the birth number. Both 32/5s and 23/5s are here to experience true freedom. The phrase true freedom implies the idea of false freedoms — for example, self-indulgence, irresponsibility, or license — when 32/5s or 23/5s insist on doing whatever they want to do, whenever they want to do it. Only those 32/5s and 23/5s who have not yet matured into a more positive expression of 5 strive for such ‘freedom’. The freedom sought by most 32/5s and 23/5s manifests as a drive to experience and know; this freedom entails a sense of mobility in different arenas of life — physical, mental, emotional, social, sexual, and financial.
Those working 32/5 or 23/5 seek to explore opportunities and find adventure where they can, whether in life, in books, or at the movies. Sometimes the drive for experience is so strong that 32/5s and 23/5s end up trying to juggle too many things to avoid missing an opportunity and end up feeling scattered or depleted. Many 32/5s, in particular, burn their candle at both ends. While 23/5s may have less confidence at first and 32/5s are more likely to overreach their limits, both are quick learners, living by their wits, with varied abilities and experience. Both 32/5s and 23/5s can sometimes focus obsessively on whatever they are doing and lose sight of the bigger picture. Like all 5s, they need discipline, focus, and a sense of priorities to help free themselves. The ultimate freedom 32/5s and 23/5s seek is internal — the freedom to be themselves, the freedom from self-doubt, the freedom from fear. Only by establishing this internal sense of expansiveness can they feel the fulfillment of their destiny in the external world. However, one way to generate internal freedom is by facing outer experience. Since the external world reflects the world of our psyche, by tackling outer challenges, both 32/5s and 23/5s have a chance to confront and transcend the issues of self-doubt and cooperation that bind them. Adventures, whether large or small, serve them well as they stretch their limits, take some emotional risks, and explore their capacities. The energy of 2, which sometimes tends toward over-cooperation, combined with the dramatic energies of 3 and 5, can generate a kind of ‘martyr complex’. These individuals want to save people, save the world, and fight for freedom. The more dramatic the means, the better. Writing to congressional representatives just isn't enough for them. They prefer drama — both on television and in real life. Since 32/5s and 23/5s tend to be quick-witted, fast learners, they also get bored easily. Boredom is their personal hell. If things get boring, they generally stir up a little drama on their own.
Ultimately, the freedom they seek entails illumination and spiritual liberation — expanding their consciousness to the point where the universe becomes their playground. At this point, their body no longer feels like a prison, because they have cultivated their visual imagination and their innate clairvoyant (clear-seeing) abilities and can ‘travel’ far beyond the confines of their body. Most 5s have explored many areas of life. The liability is that they get a broad range of experience, but a relatively shallow one. Through discipline and focus, both 32/5s and 23/5s enter the depths of experience, going into a few areas deeply enough that they discover the spiritual laws that underlie all aspects of life; in doing so, they find a deeper sense of freedom. Without such discipline, 32/5s or 23/5 tend to skim the surface or get scattered trying to do everything at once. By focusing their energies and attention — by setting clear priorities and sticking with them — they go deeper into the experience of freedom. Just as 2s tend to swing back and forth between the extremes of under-cooperation and over-cooperation, 32/5s and 23/5s tend to swing between the extremes of dependence and independence. Ultimately, they need to find a comfortable balance. They achieve this balance by allowing themselves to explore each extreme, learning about independence through examining their dependency issues, for example. They may find themselves dependent on others as a result of an accident, an illness, or a financial setback, or they may actively create a dependent relationship because of doubts or insecurity about their ability to take care of themselves. Their challenge is to use these experiences to re-establish a healthy balance of independence and appropriate interdependence — in the sense of being able to receive from others. Out of insecurity, both 32/5s and 23/5s tend to hide behind their social roles. They benefit from remembering that they are more than the roles they play. Their ability to bluff or role-play enables 32/5s and 23/5s to manipulate others consciously or unconsciously, using emotions such as anger to get their way. Whether they spend their weekends going on safari or watching the soaps, skydiving or taking care of children, 32/5s and 23/5s have a vivacious quality, a renaissance view of the world. Even if they haven't yet experienced their adventurous or freedom-oriented qualities, sooner or later, in their own way, when they come into their full confidence, 32/5s and 23/5s can discover the potential of their lives, the depth, and the boundless state of freedom within.
Working 32/5 or 23/5 in the Positive
Feeling free inside, unbounded by limiting beliefs or fears, these multifaceted individuals are willing to take emotional risks. Adventurers in daily life, they may or may not choose to go white-water rafting or skydiving, but they have developed the discipline to dig deeply into life, into the heart of experience, rather than just skim the surface. Passionate and adventurous, like Zorba the Greek, they teach by example and excitement. With their quick minds, they see and describe life in new ways. They have formed good habits and enjoy variety within a daily routine. Clever, witty, and fun loving, they make the ordinary into something extraordinary.
Working 32/5 or 23/5 in the Negative
Feeling insecure, these individuals manipulate and control others, usually by getting angry or by withdrawing. Or they try too hard to
please others and later resent others for their own imbalance. They unintentionally create situations in which they become dependent on someone or something, such as drugs or money. They give away their freedom or limit their experience out of fear and self-doubt. Scattered and quickly bored, they are emotional con artists. Lacking clear boundaries, they play different roles or experience different selves through television or books. Addicted to dramas of one kind or another, they remain at the mercy of their search for varied experience.
each case based on their position in the birth number. Both 32/5s and 23/5s are here to experience true freedom. The phrase true freedom implies the idea of false freedoms — for example, self-indulgence, irresponsibility, or license — when 32/5s or 23/5s insist on doing whatever they want to do, whenever they want to do it. Only those 32/5s and 23/5s who have not yet matured into a more positive expression of 5 strive for such ‘freedom’. The freedom sought by most 32/5s and 23/5s manifests as a drive to experience and know; this freedom entails a sense of mobility in different arenas of life — physical, mental, emotional, social, sexual, and financial.

Life-path issues
Health
Both 32/5s and 23/5s have a sensitive body that tends toward the slim and wiry due to their fast metabolism, which reflects the pace of their lives. Even those with a round body don't let that slow them down. Because of their sensitivity, they may use fat or muscle as a psychic buffer. The throat area may reflect issues of withheld expression, but more commonly, 32/5s and 23/5s need to avoid overtaxing their adrenals and nervous system, since they tend to get scattered and stressed or fatigued. If they have erratic or undisciplined habits of diet or exercise, their circulatory system may suffer. In addition, accidents can occur if they physically overextend themselves or overreach their abilities. If they use drugs as a form of ‘adventure’, they will eventually come, through hard experience, to learn that drugs can only enslave them. A balanced, low-fat diet and regular exercise arc both very important disciplines for 32/5s and 23/5s. Their exercise regimen needs to include varied exercises that are fun and efficient. Cross training, moving to music, dancing, martial arts, and hiking are all excellent.
Relationships
Those who travel alone in life, with no responsibilities to spouse, partner, or children, seem to have a kind of ‘freedom’ in the sense of having no one to answer to and fewer compromises to make. But individuals do not necessarily find freedom in isolation. The influence of 2 means that, at some point, both 32/5s and 23/5s have to work through issues of cooperation with self and others. Committed relationships provide the arena. Because of built-in challenges in the areas of freedom and independence, some 32/5s and 23/5s may project their own lack of internal freedom onto their partner, companion, or children: 'They are blocking my freedom! They don't let me go out and do what I want to do'. Some 32/5s and 23/5s do, indeed, attract or choose partners who will bring up freedom issues or upon whom they become dependent and whom they then resent. A closer look reveals that 32/5s and 23/5s limit their own freedom. Once they take responsibility for their own life and realise that they can become the writer and director in their own movie, they cease resenting others for ‘stopping them’ and find more freedom in cooperation than in reactive independence or isolation. Both 32/5s and 23/5 s have an emotionally sensitive body and energy field, but both often have some difficulty revealing their feelings. In their relationships, they need to find the courage to express what they feel. They also need to acknowledge a desire for variety and adventure and find a way to fulfill this desire with their partner if they are in a committed relationship. Whether they see their relationship as a doorway to deeper freedom and experience or as a jail determines how the relationship fares. In the area of sexuality, 32/5s and 23/5s can be very shy and insecure or sensual, adventurous, and passionate — or all of the preceding. They often enjoy fantasies and playing different roles. Their relationships and sexual play present an opportunity to experience new levels of liberation by breaking free of roles to find new levels of emotional authenticity and vulnerability.
Talents, Work, and Finances
These individuals appreciate variety as the spice of life, so any occupation that allows them to explore many facets of experience, such as teaching, writing, acting, music, politics, leading trainings, court reporting, or sales work that involves travel and working with a variety of people, can suit their talents and interests. With so many talents, they can do almost anything that appeals to them. Financially, even though security is an issue, money isn't as high a priority as the experiences it can buy; given a choice between money in savings or a chance for adventure or a learning experience, 32/5s and 23/5s will elect the experience, and they may sometimes spend money before they earn it. They appreciate a safe, secure home base (preferably with a fireplace), but when they come to their full confidence, 32/5s and 23/5s tend to trade security for adventure. With the quick wit of 5s, they can usually find or create money when they need it and stay at least one step ahead of any creditors.

1: Creativity and Confidence
4: Stability and Process
Understanding life purpose
Those on the 41/5 or 14/5 life path are here to work through issues related to independence, stability, and creative energy, finally achieving freedom by surrendering to the discipline of a step-by-step process toward chosen goals. Because the mountain path to the fulfillment of our life purpose entails tests and challenges, most 41/5s and 14/5s find a sense of authentic inner and outer freedom only after finding out what freedom isn't; they have tendencies to become dependent on others, then strive for almost aggressive independence. Balancing this tendency with healthy forms of self-reliance, interdependence, and cooperation, these individuals experience freedom only through discipline and focus, taking life one step at a time. It may take a while for them to come to this realisation. While 41/5s and 14/5s share the same drives for freedom, independence, and mastery of experience associated with other 5s, they find this freedom through distinctly different avenues, issues, and challenges due to the influence of 1 and 4 energies. All issues of 5 energy apply for 41/5s and 14/5s, but these are moderated and balanced by 4 and amplified by the creative drives of 1. Because of the influence of 4, people on both of these life paths often get scattered and go off half-cocked.
They also have a strong family orientation, and, in the positive, have more stable energy. Combining a quick mind with creativity, they're here to show people new approaches to life. Not only do 41/5s and 14/5s differ somewhat from other 5s, they also differ slightly from one another due to the relative nature and order of 4 and 1. Both 41/5s and 14/5s have significant creative energy to be released and channeled positively, especially 41/5s. Both life paths also share 4 energy, dealing with the need to follow a step-by-step process to achieve security. Since 5s, in general, find freedom through discipline, focus, and setting priorities, the energies of 1 and 4 can either significantly support or sabotage the quest for inner and outer freedom. Most 14/5s have an especially strong analytical mind, but they also display a tendency toward confusion and mental stress due to over analysis. Most 41/5s demonstrate abundant creative energy, but if that energy is obstructed, they, more than 14/5s, may discharge the excess energy through abuse of food, alcohol, tobacco, or other drugs, especially psychedelics. But both of these life paths share the same strengths and potential challenges, in slightly differing degrees, just as they share scatteredness, or trying to create too much all at once. In the most positive sense, creative energy adds extra sparkle and 'juice' to the charm and quick mindedness that characterize 41/5s and 14/5s. It also brings a degree of insecurity, especially for 41/5s, and adds a need for innovation and variety, making focus and discipline more difficult.
Since 5s already tend to bounce from one thing to another, the influence of 1 has the effect of pouring gasoline on fire. The movement, evolution, and achievement for 41/5s or 14/5s must be founded on a strong foundation of preparation. Having a stable base, such as committing to a home or family, actually teaches 41/5s and 14/5s more about inner freedom than traveling around the world and having as many experiences as possible. Most likely, 41/5s and 14/5s come to experience both — physically or in their vivid imagination. The influence of 4 adds needed strength and stability, analytical ability, and grounding to the expansive curiosity and explorative tendencies of 5 energy. However, in its less mature form, especially for 14/5s, 4 entails a resistance to any regular or diligent step-by-step process and often leads to impatience, the last thing 5s need. In both cases, 1 and especially 4 affect the drive for freedom and independence and add significant challenges. As with those working other birth numbers, to bring their primary purpose or destiny to fruition, 41/5s and 14/5s have to climb a steep path, fighting their own dragons as they go, strengthening themselves on the journey. An example of the mix of magic and chaos that can happen with the dynamic combination of 1, 4, and 5, is the late Thomas Wolfe, 14/5 author of Look Homeward Angel, who delivered his brilliant, sprawling handwritten manuscripts to his editor with the many reams of paper, pages out of order, stuffed into four or five apple crates! Yet many recognise him as one of America's foremost writers.
Working 41/5 or 14/5 in the Positive
Brilliant at structuring and synthesizing, these individuals can use razor-sharp analysis to determine what they need and then follow the steps necessary to achieve their goal. They maintain a balanced body through regular exercise and disciplined diet. Their highly visual imagination, brimming with creativity, is supported by an ability to follow patiently whatever process is necessary to bring their internal images into practical reality. Strong and inspiring, they display a broad grasp of many areas of life, and their outgoing nature makes them enjoyable company.
Working 41/5 or 14/5 in the Negative
Hampered by confusion and insecurity, these individuals accomplish little; they get stuck obsessively on one step, or they impulsively drive ahead, skipping steps, so it's halfway to the goal, then back to the drawing board. They feel torn between their desire for security and their need to take risks and explore the unknown. Uncommitted and unstable, they want freedom right now, without applying the discipline or following the step-by-step process to get it. Without a foundation to stand on, they waver and wobble, hoping and wishing, doing many things, but without real effect.

Life-path issues
Health
Individuals working 41/5 or 14/5 tend to race around due to their vitality, energy, and thirst for many experiences. When they act impulsively or overextend themselves in a quest for adventure, they may end up with broken bones. If their creative energy is blocked, 14/5s and especially 41/5s may experience problems in the abdomen, lower back, or reproductive areas. Meditation is extremely useful for both 14/5s and 41/5s to help calm their mind, which tends to run in circles. Inspiring music also has a balancing, calming effect. The nervous system of 41/5s and 14/5s needs loving care. Generally sturdier and more resistant than 32/5s and 23/5s, they are nevertheless more prone to mental stress. Both 41/5s and 14/5s benefit from paying attention to regular, stable eating habits, since they have a tendency to skip meals or eat on the run. They tend to prefer a variety of interesting foods, but they require no special dietary guidelines beyond that. If they overeat, they need to explore how their creative energy is Hocked and take appropriate steps to express this energy or release it' through balanced exercise. They thrive on a variety of exercise and may gravitate toward exciting competitive games that take quickness and strength but allow for creativity. They may also enjoy swimming, skin-diving, and other water sports, which have a soothing effect on their nervous system.
Relationships
While they experience a pull toward family and stability, less grounded 41/5s and 14/5s have an equal and opposite pull toward a variety of experience and lack of commitment. With so many things to do, they can have trouble settling down, even though the image of a stable home life appeals to them. Insecurity associated with 1 energy breeds a self-protective, competitive nature, which can also be a factor in relationships. But overall, these individuals display a dynamic energy that is very attractive, and the" only factor limiting their relationships is inside them, at the level of commitment. They definitely need and value robust, even rambunctious sexual expression, unless insecurity gets in the way; even if insecurity holds them back for a while, eventually they come to express their full sexual drive.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Strength, creativity, and quick mindedness bring 41/5s and 14/5s success in fields that allow both stability and adventure, such as international trade. Any form of creativity or business that demands rapid analysis challenges and satisfies these individuals. They prefer active rather than sedentary work, but writing can also satisfy their restless minds. Clear, creative, dramatic storytellers, they make exceptional writers, but they don't usually want to sit still that long (14/5 Thomas Wolfe used to write standing up, using his refrigerator top as his desk). Creative visionaries who can see trends before others notice them, if 41/5s and 14/5s do their homework, keep their ideas practical, and have the patience to go through the necessary step-by-step process to complete what they start, they create money as easily as ideas.

Individuals working 41/5 or 14/5 tend to race around due to their vitality, energy, and thirst for many experiences. When they act impulsively or overextend themselves in a quest for adventure, they may end up with broken bones. If their creative energy is blocked, 14/5s and especially 41/5s may experience problems in the abdomen, lower back, or reproductive areas. Meditation is extremely useful for both 14/5s and 41/5s to help calm their mind, which tends to run in circles. Inspiring music also has a balancing, calming effect. The nervous system of 41/5s and 14/5s needs loving care. Generally sturdier and more resistant than 32/5s and 23/5s, they are nevertheless more prone to mental stress. Both 41/5s and 14/5s benefit from paying attention to regular, stable eating habits, since they have a tendency to skip meals or eat on the run. They tend to prefer a variety of interesting foods, but they require no special dietary guidelines beyond that. If they overeat, they need to explore how their creative energy is Hocked and take appropriate steps to express this energy or release it' through balanced exercise. They thrive on a variety of exercise and may gravitate toward exciting competitive games that take quickness and strength but allow for creativity. They may also enjoy swimming, skin-diving, and other water sports, which have a soothing effect on their nervous system.
Relationships
While they experience a pull toward family and stability, less grounded 41/5s and 14/5s have an equal and opposite pull toward a variety of experience and lack of commitment. With so many things to do, they can have trouble settling down, even though the image of a stable home life appeals to them. Insecurity associated with 1 energy breeds a self-protective, competitive nature, which can also be a factor in relationships.

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 15/6 life path are here to work through issues involving idealism, independence, and creative energy, finding creative ways to uplift others by first accepting themselves, then sharing their vision with others. Since our life purpose involves challenges, 15/6s confront and have to overcome hurdles of perfectionism, dependence, and an underlying insecurity before they can realize and share their larger vision of possibilities. This higher vision may cause 15/6s to reject their present reality, but only through acceptance do 15/6s incorporate, embrace, and include all experiences into their understanding and build the necessary bridges between what is and what may be. They may write or dream, lead or follow; they may sing of bygone days or of future possibilities, but only in focusing their creative energies, do 15/6s bring heaven to earth. High ideals are fine, but 15/6s have to ground them in reality if they are to make a difference in the world. Those working 15/6 don't have to find freedom or high ideals; rather, they create them. They are originators, innovators, and visionaries of the highest degree. Nearly all 15/6s feel a very strong sense of service, as if they are here on a mission.
Questions such as "What is the ideal?" and "What is authentic freedom?" constantly reverberate within 15/6s as they search for the conclusive experience, the deep and the lofty. Unless they stay grounded, 15/6s tend to create and live in an idealized world of their own, as writers of fantasy and science fiction sometimes do. Isaac Asimov, a 15/6, demonstrated how to create his own worlds in the most constructive way. Others may simply be dreamers who live in castles of their imagination, only occasionally returning to everyday life on planet Earth. The usual hurdles related to 6s, such as perfectionistic standards, a tendency toward judging self and others against these standards, and low self-worth, confront 15/6s on the path up the mountain. The quick minded orientation toward freedom and experience of 6 energy strongly influences 15/6s, who seek with a deep longing to experience the more perfect life they envision, a better world of perfect justice. Because of the 5 energy, 15/6s need a practical focus — something constructive to do with their high standards. Without a direction, outlet, or goal, they can wander aimlessly in dream worlds; with a clear direction, they open doors to the future and point to our highest potential as did the writers Isaac Asimov and Jules Verne. But for all the high-minded, creative, freedom-oriented individuals born to this life path, others have struggled with insecure, blocked energies. Such 15/6s often feel scattered, directionless, trapped, or constantly disappointed; they pursue escapist activities, from reading literature about Utopian societies to seeking out self-destructive drug hallucinations. Along with 5 issues, including the absolute need for discipline, 15/6s have the abundant creative energy of 1, which transforms ideals and visions into some kind of form. For 15/6 Christopher Columbus, the vision was a new land across the uncharted regions of the ocean. For another 15/6, Joan of Arc, the vision was becoming God's knight of peace. The drives of 15/6s blend energies of creativity, liberation, justice, and a longing for perfection and form one of the most distinctive, high-minded life paths this century.
Working 15/6 in the Positive
Inspired and uplifting, these individuals reveal visions of new possibilities and a brighter future. As high-minded strategists, drought focus and discipline they apply their active creative energies to awakening people from the mundane into the more sublime, more peaceful, liberated beings that they really are. At their best, these creative visionaries embody and channel the very force of human evolution to help change their world and themselves. Accepting themselves and others, they work with patience to convey positive laws of living through their work. They show the way to perfect freedom.
Working 15/6 in the Negative
Picky, judgmental, and disappointed with life, these individuals search high and low for the right person, idea, system, or scheme to make life better and to make themselves better, but their search only reinforces their sense of incompleteness. They are unrealistic dreamers and unprepared idealists who often become martyrs to a cause. Frustrated with themselves and others, they misdirect their stifled creative energy, discharging it in self-destructive ways. They use drugs or other means to tune out a world that falls painfully short of truth, justice, honor, or peace.

Life-path issues
Health
Due to their creative energy and quick mind combined with their perfectionistic standards, 15/6s tend to be active and high-strung. If
they direct this energy into focused work, their hair-trigger energy works in bursts of creativity and productivity. If they misdirect it, they may experience nervous disorders, skin rashes, abdominal problems, and possible burnout. The body and energy field of 15/6s shine with a bright, even mystical quality and refinement reflected in the music ofjascha Heifetz or the style of actor David Niven, both 15/6s. Individuals working 15/6 benefit most from evolved and refined methods of healing, such as visualization and hypnotherapy, which draw on subconscious imagery to generate internal self-healing mechanisms, homeopathy, acupuncture, aromatherapy, and color therapy, all forms of healing with the fewest side effects. Other people cannot effectively advise 15/6s about nutrition or exercise because these individuals best look to their own internal archetypes and ideals for guidance. In general, they do best on a purifying diet and need less food than many people. Most 15/6s are drawn to exercise that feels natural and balanced to them; at best, they practice a simple, efficient routine incorporating the essential elements of breathing, stretching, toning, and relaxation, such as t'ai chi, or an evolved type of light calisthenics that allows for variety.
Relationships
Those working 15/6 tend to idealize people out of proportion to their actual qualities or characteristics. They may also harbor secret disappointments because others are never quite perfect enough for them. They tend not to perceive the person they are with; instead, they can carry on a relationship, even long-term, with an idealized image they project onto that person; in this sense, they may love the image they have created without getting to know or accept their partner as he or she truly is. Alternately, their idealized vision may quickly wear thin as they discover "character flaws" in their partner. In general, 15/6s desire to create something more, or higher, out of their natural sexual drive and out of relationship in general. Since they compare their relationship to an ideal image, their relationship becomes a constant form of self-improvement unless they're so busy dreaming and creating that they don't pay much attention to or invest much energy in the relationship.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Those working 15/6 explore different forms of work before finding a chosen profession or, rather, a high calling. Their ideals and need for variety may direct them to writing, acting, exploring, or coaching, occupations where they feel comfortable being different and can help to shape people and ideas into something more, since reality never seems quite good enough or may fall short altogether. Whatever creative endeavours they pursue, if 15/6s persist and do not become disheartened or impatient, they excel due to their high standards. The finances of 15/6s reflect their creative output; if 15/6s don't find their focus as they wait for the more perfect opportunity, they feel a lack on many levels, but if they produce something practical and useful—something people can use today, not in the distant future—and if their ideals inspire them to creative ventures, the rewards appear and they prosper.

Understanding Life Purpose
Those on the 24/6 or 42/6 life path are here to work through issues of perfectionism, process, and responsibility, taking life one step at a time, manifesting their vision in practical ways, and accepting the inherent perfection of their life. Since our life purpose doesn't come easily, 24/6s and 42/6s have a hard time accepting themselves, others, and the world as they are. Both 24/6s and 42/6s can get lost worrying about petty details — things they said, should have said, or shouldn't have said or done. Regrets and guilts are a familiar part of their life until 24/6s and 42/6s expand their vision to the bigger picture, to the overriding perfection of life. With 4 issues combined with ideals of 6 energy, 24/6s and 42/6s have difficulty with patience; they see their own and everyone else's potential and push to reach the summit, but they would rather make the journey in one leap than follow the step-by-step process they're here to master. Both 24/6s and 42/6s tend to idealize people they've just met, or new opportunities, jobs, and places; then they feel disappointed because nothing and no one can ever quite meet their expectations. Most 24/6s and 42/6s tend to set themselves up and let themselves down. They need to balance their native idealism and vision with a strong dose of realism and come to appreciate the imperfections we all came here to work through. Starting out as idealists, 24/6s and 42/6s set themselves up for disappointment as they search for the perfect job, the perfect relationship, or the perfect life. Whatever they're doing or whomever they're with, they have a sneaking suspicion that there may be someone or something better.
Despite this, 24/6s or 42/6s are not necessarily fickle or promiscuous; for the most part, their high standards and self-image help ensure high codes of behavior. If they do slip, the regrets and guilts they suffer are usually worse than any punishment. Even when doing very good work, they have a little voice inside that says, "It could be better". They try too hard, feel too responsible, and are generally hard on themselves. When they criticize other people, they are likely to judge themselves for judging others. With the combination of 2 and 4 energies, 24/6s and 42/6s bring powerful support and service energies into play. They have the internal strength to bring at least some of their visions into reality as they find the limits of their responsibility, master cooperation, and work toward their goals in small, persistent steps. With the sense of responsibility that goes with 2, the easy sociability of 4, and the high ideals of 6, 24/6s and 42/6s push themselves very hard in their impatience to reach their goals. They have a vision of everyone's highest potential, including their own, without always appreciating others or themselves right now, doing their best. Because 2 and 4 energies have more similarities than any two other digits—sharing tendencies toward overanalysis, codependency (a sense of overresponsibility for the lives and feelings of others), strength, and stubbornness —the 24/6 and 42/6 life paths are nearly identical, except for a slightly different emphasis based on the reversed order of the first two digits, 2 and 4. While 24/6s experience issues with family (4) somewhat more acutely than 42/6s, 42/6s have a stronger tendency toward over-cooperation (2), sometimes turning to undercooperation (resistance or withdrawal). But both 24/6s and 42/6s experience both kinds of issues, and they share the same tendencies to push themselves and others, measuring everyone against their high standards. Both 24/6s and 42/6s, unless they are in a very negative state, are pleasant people to be around; with the support and service energy of 2 and the easy sociability of 4, they treat other people like family. Due to the interaction of high standards (6s wanting to "do right" and "be good") and the tendency of both 2s and 4s to do what they think they "should" do rather than what they really feel, both 24/6s and 42/6s tend to be masters ofself-deception and denial They deny their own feelings, deny their situation, and sometimes stubbornly hold to their course even if their ship is sinking. Therefore, both benefit from the Law of Flexibility, which teaches them to flow with what happens in life. Those working 24/6 or 42/6 are generally very outgoing, gregarious, bright, strong, and vital. They try hard to please others and to do the right thing, so they need to stay vigilant of those who may attempt to manipulate them through guilt. They need to do the right thing for themselves — to contact their own authentic values and needs. Since 24/6s and 42/6s appreciate their own and others' potential, they tend to push themselves and others to fulfill their expectations. These individuals tend toward chronic self-improvement programs until they finally come to accept themselves and others as they are right now, and appreciate that while they aren't perfect, facets of them are very good.
Both 24/6s and 42/6s need to appreciate the difference between true or ultimate perfection and perfectionism—unrealistically high standards that can never be fulfilled and that lead to frustration. As 24/6s and 42/6s mature, they come to appreciate the inherent or transcendental perfection of everything and everyone, while realizing that in this conditional realm, no person, product, or performance is perfect; excellence, not perfection, is the best we can achieve. Both 24/6s and 42/6s need to understand that excellence comes through following a careful, patient, thorough, step-by-step process. A skipped step can mean failure and having to start over. Since they compare themselves with their ideals (or with tie best people around), 24/6s and 42/6s often feel like "failures" even when they are doing very good work. They also may lack practical judgment thinking their "cake" is complete when it's still only half-baked. With their strong 4 energy, 24/6s and 42/6s tend toward over-analyses, which changes to disorientation as their mind whirls, weighing all the variables. This confusion can result in impulsive or compulsive decisions and corresponding regrets. Since they are here to ground their energy, they also have challenges in this area. If they resist the process, they sometimes encounter difficulties translating their high visions and hopes into practical forms of occupations and service. Once 24/6s and 42/6s relax into life and into their body, accept and appreciate their own and others' imperfections, and learn to trust that their life reflects, in some sense, a perfect process of learning, growth, and evolution, they finally feel as if they've come home. The process to realizing this perfection takes time and happens in small increments; it cannot be rushed, as much as they'd like to get it all done right now.
Working 24/6 or 42/6 in the Positive
Bright, gregarious, productive, and supportive, these individuals have a good relationship with friends and associates. Their practical
analytical ability blends common sense with high vision. They act with strong conscience and want to learn from their mistakes and continue to improve themselves and their world. Strong, healthy, and energy packed, these individuals can be counted upon to get any job done as their work evolves from good to brilliant. They are always improving, always pushing toward perfection, but they accept the step-by-step process from where they are to where they want to be. They have a good sense of balance; they know how to give graciously and how to receive. Practical idealists, they appreciate themselves and others and find joy in the world.
Working 24/6 or 42/6 in the Negative
These individuals feel frustrated and impatient with their life because nothing meets their high standards or happens as quickly as they would like. Impractical, impatient dreamers, they start out with a burst of enthusiasm and effort, but if they don't succeed quickly, they soon abandon ideas and plans without really giving them a chance to develop ("What's the use?"). They idealize people they meet, then feel disappointed to learn that those people have their own issues to work through. Hypersensitive to criticism because they're so critical of themselves, they don't listen well to others' feedback or advice, and they make the same mistakes over and over again.

They idealize people they meet, then feel disappointed to learn that those people have their own issues to work through. Hypersensitive to criticism because they're so critical of themselves, they don't listen well to others' feedback or advice, and they make the same mistakes over and over again.
Life-path issues
Health
Most 24/6s and 42/6s have a strong constitution, resistant to illness. If they do become ill, they usually heal quickly. If they experience a chronic condition, they usually find they brought it on themselves through long-term resistance to change and associated tension. Accidents, especially to lower extremities, may be more likely if they act impulsively, get distracted, or overreach themselves. Their adult life may entail a process of healing and rejuvenation or a process of degeneration, based on their health habits. Depending upon their stress level, degree of worrying, or the pressures of perfectionism, they may develop allergies or use tobacco or alcohol to relieve frustration. Due to their blend of high standards and impulsiveness, 24/6s and 42/6s tend to strive for ideal dietary or exercise habits for periods of time, followed by vacations or binges. They may alternate between puritan and hedonist tendencies, feehng as if they've "blown it," then making new resolutions. Rather than looking for the perfect diet or the perfect exercise system, 24/6s and 42/6s do best when they gradually refine habits of moderation that reflect the step-by-step process toward excellence they're here to learn. If, for example, they decide to lose weight, the success of going through a patient process is of far more significance in terms of their fife path than quickly succeeding with their weight-loss program. Their already-strong body finds balance in activities that combine mental focus, emotional calm, and relaxation with physical suppleness. They can tolerate and thrive on strong, regular workouts. Rather than just taking up a routine fitness practice, such as running or swimming, both 24/6s and 42/6s gain even more benefits when they include a martial art, yoga, a dance form, or another activity that requires a process of improvement over time.
Relationships
Overall, 42/6s and especially 24/6s can become frantic trying to find the perfect job or relationship. Because of this, they can sometimes encounter difficulty feeling stable or committed to a person or a job. Commitment can frighten them, because for them, commitment means forever, but they are never sure they've found the "perfect one," They say, "I love you," but inside they don't know if they're really telling the truth because they aren't sure if they love enough; they aren't even sure how they feel, because they've only learned what they are "supposed to feel," and it takes time for them to contact and accept their genuine feelings, both "good" and "bad". Because of their gregarious nature, when working in the positive 24/6s and 42/6s make enjoyable company. Concerned and conscientious, they give that extra effort. Their high standards render them enthusiastic, skilful lovers who generally give more than they take, so they need to learn to find a balance of giving and receiving and put more emphasis on vulnerability rather than on performance.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Strength and precision make bodywork, architecture, or service oriented professions enjoyable kinds of work for 24/6s and 42/6s. They also make excellent advisers in business due to their analytical abilities and the support energy of 2. Some 24/6s and 42/6s even end up in some form of planning or politics to help improve the world. They also make natural athletes—gymnasts, divers, tennis players, or skaters. Where strength and form are essential, 24/6s and 42/6s can make some of the best athletes anywhere, whatever the sport. They aren't limited to such areas, however, and fit into nearly any occupation if it suits their values and sense of meaning. The key for them is to cut through the "shoulds" and ideals and rediscover what they really feel and enjoy. The finances of 24/6s and 42/6s depend upon how practical rather than idealistic they are, and whether they're willing to go through the step-by-step process and preparation necessary to reach their goals, that is, whether they're willing to "pay their dues." While they search for the most ideal work for them, they shouldn't give up their day job, which provides the foundation and security that can enable them to move on to something that suits them better.

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 33/6 life path are here to work through issues of perfectionism, emotional expression, and self-doubt in order to bring forward their inspiring vision of life's possibilities, while appreciating the innate perfection of the present moment. This world contains both beauty and ugliness, kindness and cruelty. Those working 33/6 energy, with their high ideals and acute sensitivity, tend to feel disheartened by the problems and imperfections of the world, but they suppress their sadness and even their anger as they attempt to "do the right thing" due to their high standards. Ironically, even with their depth of emotions, 33/6s can appear cool and unemotional. When 33/6s displease someone—anyone—even though they may not acknowledge it, they are troubled by this, because they combine the emotional needs of 3s with the sensitive conscience of 6s. Therefore, 33/6s need to take care not to let themselves be manipulated in their desire for approval and their strong social needs to be liked and respected. The lives of 33/6s grow brighter when they realize that their visions, hopes, and high ideals are here to inspire them, not become the yardstick by which they measure the world. They need to appreciate that in the world of form, no perfect person, performance, or product exists; they also need to appreciate and express their vision of the inherent or higher level of perfection already existing in the world. Although their basic life purpose is the same as that of other 6s, 33/6s have a distinctly different energy due to the powerful influence of the double 3. As they do for birth numbers 22/4 and 44/8, double numbers represent significant strengths and added challenges. For 33/6s, the double 3 means that inner expression needs to manifest before outer expressiveness can bloom. Inner expression entails 33/6s communicating with themselves and getting in touch with their own inner feelings. This poses a dear challenge for most 33/6s because their perfectionistic nature tends to fixate on the "best," most ideal way to feel, to be, and to act; they can lose touch with the real, not always "nice" feelings that make up the entire complex of their personality.
Although 33/6s don't rely on denial as much as 42/6s or 24/6s, it may take time and insight work for them to finally accept their real feelings. Getting in touch with and accepting their most authentic feelings opens channels to their subconscious wisdom and intuitions, and enables them to form and enjoy a more compassionate, empathic bond with others. Once 33/6s contact their own feelings, the second 3 involves finding the courage to express their feelings to others; again, this is difficult because they are very sensitive to criticism, and they want to appear in the very best possible light. In some cases, their standards are so high, they just give up. Expressing their feelings entails a certain vulnerability and leaves 33/6s open to others. If they take the risk, they are rewarded with closer relationships with others and with themselves. Contacting and expressing feelings doesn't end the challenge of double 3 energy because 33/6s are prone to disillusion, disappointment, and general frustration when- life doesn't meet their expectations. Because of this, they tend to express themselves in the negative, through complaining, criticizing, gossiping, judging, or name-calling. Of course, 33/6s then turn around and judge themselves for advertising their judgments out loud. Such negative expression, however, is preferable to denial or withholding feelings, as a step in the direction of self-expression. In the short run, it may be better for 33/6s to express in the negative, than to hold in their expression and not speak at all — at least until they learn to express their feelings" authentically in more positive ways. Even though many 33/6s feel compelled to complain, judge, condemn, and otherwise express in the negative, they can develop the skill to express the same idea honestly in a positive way. It's very important for 33/6s (or anyone working 3) to realize that anything they express in negative ways, they can also express in positive ways. The Law of Choices addresses this key area.
The destiny of 33/6s relies on their cultivating their natural, high-minded vision of the bigger picture—the ability to see the inherent beauty, opportunity, and teachings of life's up and downs. Having cultivated their vision, they need to learn to use their expressive energies and abilities in the most constructive, uplifting, even enthusiastic ways. This doesn't mean denying an injustice or problem or seeing only the sunny side of life; it means recognizing and accepting all that happens, whether we like it or not, as fuel for our growth and learning. With the double 3 energy, 33/6s have two doses of self-doubt, which can drag them down because of the weight of their ongoing, stratospheric standards, unless they recognize that the hurdle for what it is and deal with it. They can balance their perfectionistic tendencies by remembering that every incident reflects "the universal teacher," making every circumstance a perfect opportunity to learn. Self-doubt and perfectionism comprise the two biggest hurdles for 33/6s. The combination tends to send them on a never-ending quest for self-improvement; 6s love to improve themselves and everything else, and the self-doubt of 3s sends them swinging from manic over-confidence to depressive doubt. Very competitive, they constandy judge and compare themselves to others to see how they're doing. If they don't feel hke they're doing well enough, they may push themselves, strive for lofty goals, and reach for perfection. If they succumb to self-doubt, they may step out of the game, just get by, or drop out, disheartened and defeated, victim to the logic, "If I don't try, then I can't really fail." If they stay in the game, however, they end up doing well because of their inherently bright, sensitive, and intuitive nature. Nearly all 33/6s are more interested in goals than in the sometimes lengthy process necessary to reach them; unlike 4s, who have trouble tolerating slow, careful steps, 33/6s are willing to go through the steps, but they want to do it quickly so that they can reach the ideal, the end product. They see the completed vision before them and want to achieve it; they want to arrive almost before they've begun. Like 4s, 33/6s need to apply the Law of Process, not because they're reluctant to go step-by-step, but rather as a reminder to slow down and enjoy the journey. Most 33/6s feel a strong need for emotional support and love; even though many people love and admire them, they may not feel it until they come to love and accept themselves and to see their own beauty and light.
Working 33/6 in the Positive
Surrounded by a bright energy field reflecting purity and clarity, these sensitive individuals have an attractive energy and enthusiastic way of helping others to see their own perfection and the positive side of every issue. Their body is strong because they've developed and refined it through proper exercise and diet. They accept their shape whether or not it meets anyone else's idea of perfection. They see the inherent perfection of others, and they have come to accept themselves; self-evaluation has changed to self-valuation. They always have a kind word or good thing to say about others. Their laser eyesight can spot the beauty in anyone or anything; they see the higher beings we are all becoming. With their high standards and sense of fairness, they work for justice, right, and truth in constructive ways.
Working 33/6 in the Negative
Tight-lipped, inhibited outsiders, these individuals have downturned corners of their mouth that indicate their disappointment with most people and their anger and frustration about the world. "It isn't fair!" is the battle cry of these harsh critics, as they judge the world against unreachable ideals. They hold in their expression or let it out in negative tirades and complaints as their laser vision points out the flaws in everyone and everything. Their body holds tension within extra fat or extra muscle as body armor to insulate them from a world that feels burdensome due to their own self-imposed standards.

Life-path issues
Health
The source of energy for 33/6s comes from having a cause, an idea, or an ideal that inspires them. Most have a strong, healthy body, but due to their sensitivity and depending on their emotional state, they may sometimes have to deal with sore throats due to unexpressed feelings. When nervous or pressured by feeling that they "have to do well," they sometimes experience a "nervous stomach." The stress they impose upon themselves with their standards can also manifest as muscular tension, especially in the jaw; as occasional skin rashes; or even as asthma if the wotld seems to press in upon them as they try to meet their own impossibly high standards. If working in the negative over time, 33/6s may experience chronic illnesses, including colitis, ulcers, or other abdominal symptoms. Chronically blocked, suppressed, or unexpressed anger related to judgments they place on themselves or others can turn to arthritis in later years, a form of "crystallized anger" in the joints, especially for those 33/6s who have a cool, controlled exterior. All of the preceding problems or conditions reflect those working 33/6 energy in the negative; these issues are not inevitable or necessary. Health conditions can improve significantly once 33/6s (or people working other birth numbers) learn to ease up and go with the flow. Good advice for any 33/6s would be to eat what they feel good about and feel good about what they eat. Because of the 3 energy, emotions play an important role in anything they do. They tend to aspire to and work toward an optimal diet, depending upon their knowledge of nutrition and their instinctive feel. Although not an issue for most 33/6s, some may be vulnerable to anorexic eating disorders due to a distorted body image of not being slim enough or not being perfect enough.
Most 33/6s do well with clear-cut fitness exercises; they naturally look for the most perfect form of exercise for them, even one that fills emotional or social needs. Many also enjoy skill training such as martial arts, where they can refine and hone skills to "perfection." Of the top five martial artists I have known, three happen to work the 33/6 life path.
Relationships
Emotions aren't "reasonable," neat, orderly, or predictable, and 33/6s may have difficulty letting their hair down and getting wild and passionate (unless, of course, they're skillful actors like 33/6s Meryl Streep and Robert DeNiro). Overcoming self-doubt and the fear of others' opinions may take a little time for 33/6s. Until they are willing to express their feelings directly— as in "I feel hurt!'— they tend to stifle upsets to "keep their cool." When emotions are held back, so are relationships. Those working 33/6 need to realize that their partner or spouse wants to love them, not somebody with a perfect mask. The more genuine and vulnerable they can act and the more they can feel, "Here's who I am, the good and the bad —take it or leave it," the better. Sexually, many 33/6s feel a distance or inhibition rather than wild abandon because of their concern with technique or performance—with "how well they're doing"—rather than with the pure emotional content of lovemaking. In some cases, if they haven't yet understood their perfectionistic tendencies, their sexual feelings may diminish due to repressed anger resulting from judgments about their lover. In the positive, 33/6s form nurturing, giving relationships, sexual and otherwise.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Unless they allow self-doubt to stop them, the high standards of 33/6s make them naturally prone to success, because they do very good work (even though they don't always feel that way). They have a deep emotional sensitivity, whether ornot they show it and a mind that focuses and directs a profound intuitive intelligence. To succeed, however, they need to get a grip on their ideals, stay practical and realistic, and keep positive. The desire of 33/6s for precision, along with their expressive and intuitive abilities, can shine through many different occupations, such as teaching, training, organizational work, design and architecture, and illustration. Actors, dancers, and athletes who are 33/6s study their craft deeply; they are consummate professionals. Many 33/6s make excellent, prolific writers; they excel at anything having to do with communication, feelings, and expression. They tend to offer that extra touch and to work conscientiously toward high standards. If any problems arise in the financial arena, self-doubt and perfectionist procrastination probably he at the source. Whenever 33/6s experience a lack of abundance, this may stem from self-worth issues— from unreahstically devaluing themselves and being afraid to step up and let the world know what they're worth. When they come to know and appreciate themselves—and to express their true emotions — they also express their joy for life.

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 16/7 life path are here to work through issues of openness, authenticity, acceptance, and insecurity, learning to trust the creative spirit within themselves and the beauty within others, sharing their ideals and vision in practical ways. Since our life path isn't an easy climb, 16/7s confront specific challenges associated with each digit of their birth number: The creative energy of 1 has to be used for constructive purposes, or it may turn back on itself in destructive ways. This 1 energy often brings a sense of insecurity or a feeling of inferiority. When fueled by the high visions and perfectionistic standards of 6 combined with the trust issues of 7 energy, 16/7s have a deep fear of being shamed or looking foolish and tend to be extremely private people, living "within" themselves, working to create a better world but somewhat disheartened by this one. They prefer a great deal of privacy; they also have much to contribute due to their incisive mental clarity and awesome creative imagination. Despite their outward activities—their work, family, and other interests—a conscious or subconscious longing whispers to them, a drive to find safe harbor that offers a sense of communion with self, with others, with the world, and with the Spirit and inspiration that animate us all. Although many 34/7s, 43/7s, or 25/7s who are more involved in business or sports or raising children might not relate to the spiritual language or imagery presented here about 7s, most 16/7s will resonate with their higher, inner calling, due to their lofty vision. Two 16/7s, Vladimir Horowitz and Frederic Chopin, provided a path to a deeper feeling of life through music; 16/7 Fyodor Dostoyevski offered deeper understanding through the written word. The call to service is key for 16/7s, for without a means to serve others in everyday
life, 16/7s might otherwise prefer to leave the Earth's physical plane entirely— sometimes literally, as did 16/7 astronaut Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin. They don't leave like the catatonic, whose awareness turns inward in fear, but like the mystic, whose vision turns inward in hope, love, and high aspiration.
The life path of 16/7s, with their intense and active imagination, tends to be one of the least grounded in the everyday realities of life.
What discipline it must have taken for 16/7 Chet Huntley, the high-minded journalist, to immerse himself in "the daily news"! The challenge for 16/7s, with their high ideals and perfectionistic tendencies, their flowing creative energies and their desire to know more deeply, is to accept and embrace the everyday world and find within it and within themselves the beauty and perfection they seek. The 7 influence means that 16/7s long for a more profound connection to life. They achieve this through a primary 7 challenge—learning to trust their inner knower and to trust the world as it unfolds. This may not come easily for 16/7s, but it is what they come here for. Most 16/7s have significant issues with trusting others and trusting themselves. Few 7s naturally trust themselves, although they may appear to do so to outside observers. They may even state that they do; if they look inside, however, they usually discover that they trust their mind, their knowledge, and the theories and beliefs they have gathered from others. For 16/7s, trust comes especially slowly because their inherent perfectionism leads to disappointment in self and others who fall short of high expectations. They have trouble trusting their heart and intuition. The 7 tendency to feel betrayed is especially acute and frustrating for 16/7s, and this frustration is fueled by creative energy and aggravated by a tendency toward insecurity and isolation. However, when 16/7s direct their creative energy toward a vision, a quest, a goal, or a higher purpose, they come to trust the Spirit manifesting in, as, and through them. As their razor-sharp minds begin to grasp and appreciate the inherent perfection of their existence, including their success and failures, their highs and lows, they come to trust the spiritual principles that had previously escaped their notice. The moment they find the bittersweet beauty and transcendent perfection inherent in life, they find safe harbor everywhere and have nothing more to fear.
Working 16/7 in the Positive
These individuals share their high vision and reveal new possibilities through their creative endeavors as they express truth and beauty. Their intense eyes and sparkling energy and their crisp, refined qualities reveal them as high-minded "angels" in human form. Having found unconditional, but not naive, trust in themselves and others, they see the inherent perfection and larger workings of a loving Spirit even in the most difficult circumstances. Inspired by a higher purpose, they find deep meaning in uplifting and moving others to a more refined, elevated sense of their own lives.
Working 16/7 in the Negative
Feeling bitter and betrayed, insecure and self-destructive, these individuals can have a hard time being here. They feel disappointed in themselves and in others and frustrated that no one has lived up to their expectations, which are now abandoned or turned sour. They long for a more ideal world, but feeling unable to contribute, they have given up hope. Isolated as hermits, they fear others' criticism, and so withdraw from social contacts. Feeling misunderstood and judged by others, they find escape in drugs or in illusory fantasy realms.

Life-path issues
Health
If 16/7s experience chronic feelings of betrayal or being misunderstood, the heart and knees become vulnerable. Issues in the abdomen or lungs are also possibilities. Subtle forms of energy work, homeopathy, visualisations, and meditation generally work well for 16/7s. They also benefit from any form of meditation or relaxation practice that lets them release their thoughts rather than get lost in them. A satisfying, nourishing, but light diet works well for 16/7s, who usually gravitate toward light eating because, to them, quality is more desirable than quantity. They need to experiment to find the optimal diet, learning to trust their instincts even more than research. Most 16/7s derive special benefit from more refined forms of conscious exercise, such as t'ai chi, yoga, and gentle aerobics, including swimming and walking. Exercise keeps creative energy flowing for 16/7s and helps them learn to trust their body's natural wisdom. They enjoy efficient, innovative exercise or simply walking through nature's beauty.
Relationships
If working in the negative, 16/7s confront issues of mistrust and insecurity; in such cases, 16/7s find it difficult to express their feelings
or show their emotions. Therefore, opening up to genuine intimacy can present a significant challenge. In some cases, their relationships may exist on a fantasy level, as they look for a Duldnea, a Helen of Troy, a Hercules, or some other idealized figure. Some 16/7s would rather read a book than have a relationship. When they are working the positive aspects of this life pattern, 16/7s' high vision leads them to openness, trust, and sharing, resulting in "perfect" intimacy. Making love with mindless abandon, letting themselves be seen and known entirely, is both frightening and healing for 16/7s, for whom lovemaking can become a tender and courageous act of accepting the body and earthly life.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Since 16/7s combine creative energy, high standards, and sharp intellect, they inevitably generate exemplary, beautiful work in any field, whether as writers or tile setters, musicians or astronauts. They gravitate toward work that allows a sense of privacy, that challenges their intellect, and that appeals to their high-minded sense of meaning. The 6 influence raises the possibility that self-worth issues may interfere with their ability to receive and to create abundance. Once 16/7s begin to value themselves and their work and open themselves to receiving, the world gives back to them in return.

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 25/7 life path are here to work through issues of privacy, openness, and independence, finally coming to trust spiritual forces operating through themselves, others, and the world, and to experience inner freedom through a focused discipline. Trusting self and others, along with discipline and focus, are primary life issues for 25/7s, and the quality of their life depends, in large part, on whether they work these areas in positive or negative ways. Because our life purpose rarely comes easily, 25/7s tend toward varying degrees of paranoia; they may begin relationships with an almost naive trust and faith and set themselves up for broken trust, betrayal, or misunderstanding later on. Most 25/7s need a great deal of privacy and sense of independence. Due to subdue fears of being shamed or betrayed, they tend to draw back "inside themselves" emotionally; they don't feel safe enough to let people see their private thoughts or feelings. Some 25/7s have become hurt, bitter, or paranoid and first look out for "number one"; feeling isolated emotionally or even physically, like the classic mountain hermit, they may seek "Spirit" but avoid intimate human relationships. Because of their world-class thinking abilities, 25/7s can find external success, but their life purpose centers more around inner processing than worldly pursuits. Most individuals on the 25/7 life path are involved with work, relationships, family, travel, and any number of ordinary activities in daily life. Nearly all 25/7s have an appealing lightness and clarity about them; whether or not they are aware of it, they have a close association with the subtle energies some people call angels. Even though they may prefer scientific to spiritual models of reality, most 25/7s feel drawn to a sense of beauty and harmony that borders on the mystical. Something more resides beneath the surface of their life, however, something inside their skin, their heart, and the cells of their body, a kind of longing, perhaps still subconscious, a desire to feel that this is home.
The interaction of 2, 5, and 7 gives rise to internal conflicts that send 25/7s on a quest for healing and illumination. These individuals don't necessarily need healing on a physical level; their drive is to heal internal divisions and find the focus, meaning, and purpose they seek. Most 25/7s have a refined appearance and certain childlike qualities. Children tend to like them because they can play like children. Whether male or female, they have a Peter Pan-like quality; caught between the Neverland and Earth, they aren't sure where they belong. They enjoy scenic beauty and find it easier to commune with spirits of nature than with the denizens of the urban world. They like computers and computer art, computer games, scholarly research, reading, and travel in the sea or the sky; they search for worlds of beauty and adventure, where the politics and deceptions of the human world are left behind, or at least held at bay. Most 25/7s feel caught in a double bind: Not usually trusting of others enough to share their inner feelings, they have few real intimacies; tending to isolate themselves and needing substantial private, independent time, they take pains to protect themselves from a social world that seems, deep inside their subconscious, somehow threatening. Yet they have a desire to help others, to make a difference, to contribute in some way. Like a puppy who slowly approaches a stranger, only to draw back, then approach, then draw back, some 25/7s take a risk and try to establish contact, perhaps through sharing an interest or in structured group settings. Other 25/7s who have felt betrayed draw back into their own independent, uncomplicated, but sometimes lonely world. With the 2 influence, 25/7s seek internal harmony between conflicting values or ideas; in relationships with others, they seek balance between giving and receiving, and they like to draw clear boundaries around their "space". The 5 energy creates lessons for 25/7s in the realm of freedom and independence and the discipline necessary to achieve it.
As 25/7s mature through the lessons of their life, they open to deeper levels of self-trust through their own direct experience. Ultimately, even if 25/7s have an interest in spiritual practices or ideas, they don't just want to read about mystical experiences in a book; they want a direct experience of oneness. When they are living in alignment with the Law of Faith, they make contact with the deeper purpose in all that arises. If some people he to them, cheat them, or betray them in any other form, they may not choose to associate with these people again, but they remain steadfast in their trust of "the universal teacher" working through these experiences, and they feel gratitude to Spirit for the lessons. When 25/7s find internal freedom from conflict, they can then focus on a form of service the way Zen archers focus on their archery practice—as a means of transformation and inner awareness. Until they find their focus, however, they tend to remain eternal seekers and spiritual vagabonds, disassociated rather than free, trusting everyone but themselves, searching everywhere but where they stand, trusting only the mind as a repository of information. Most 25/7s tend toward paranoia. When they feel safe enough to put aside their mental shields and trust self and trust Spirit, they feel the communion they have known from birth but had forgotten; they feel a direct experience of oneness. When 25/7s finally feel Spirit inside, they find Spirit everywhere, in everyone and everything.
Working 25/7 in the Positive
The life of these individuals may or may not appear spiritual or include spiritual practices or inner work. But no matter what field they engage in, these 25/7s are a source of often deep understanding be cause they look inside to find whatever they need to know. They also learn from others, but they respect their own internal feelings and messages. They are adventurers who bring to light the freedom within; living the liberated life, feeling comfortable and at home almost any where, they find satisfaction sharing the truths that experience has taught them. Embodying inner freedom, touched by a sense of oneness, peace, and inner harmony, they go out and touch others. They are grateful for all experiences, because these 25/7s see Spirit everywhere.
Working 25/7 in the Negative
Preferring solitude, these isolated individuals avoid people because they don't feel others can be trusted. Aimless seekers of experience, avid readers, or spiritual tramps, they constantly look for the book, training, or teacher who can help them be whole or give them the conclusive understanding they want with their mind. Nevertheless, they don't find what they are seeking, because they are searching outside themselves. They're among the paranoids of the world; they assume they're going to be left out, and to the degree they act like a recluse, they do get left out.

Life-path issues
Health
The health of most 25/7s depends upon the relative clarity of each number: In the positive, 2 brings strength; 5 brings an expansive sense of freedom; and 7 brings a discriminating mind that follows sound health practices. In the negative, however, 2 means 25/7s get drained and stressed from drinking too much, resulting in possible allergies; 5 means they feel scattered, dependent, and resentful, which compromises the adrenals and nervous system; and 7 means they are sensitive to feelings of betrayal and constricted around the heart area. For 25/7s, few activities are as healing as drifting down a river, canoeing across a lake, or hiking through the woods. Coupled with meditation and open feelings, these activities work as a positive tonic and rejuvenator. Most 25/7s need grounding; they need to "come down to Earth". Physical exercise, martial arts, and any positive physical experience help to ground them, as does self-trust. Aesthetic forms of healing that focus on the mind, such as visualisation, working with light and color, flower essences, and art, are all useful for 25/7s. Like all 7s, 25/7s need to apply regular discipline and not get so involved with the mind that they forget they have a body that requires care.
Relationships
Most 25/7s have clear-cut issues that make sharing their feelings and revealing their vulnerability especially challenging but certainly
possible. They experience fears and pain of betrayal, real or imagined, in their hearts; so they trust their mind and think their way through emotions, which cuts them off from a sense of connection with others. Those working 25/7 keep to themselves a great deal, desiring a high degree of privacy and independence, but they still seek to remain connected to their partner, requiring a delicate balance. Most 25/7s seek harmony, balance, and completeness through joining with a partner because they don't feel the harmony and completeness in themselves. To bring more life into a relationship, they do well to practice whatever inner work they choose to enhance their own sense of self-reliance and wholeness. When they come to trust self and God, they open to relationship. Sexually, 25/7s' deepest satisfaction comes as they emerge from the "cave of the mind" and trust enough to remove their mental armour and bring emotion into the bedroom.
Talents, Work and Finances
No matter what their chosen occupation, 25/7s can use their incisive mind in service and support of others. Most 25/7s work well in writing, acting, research, or high-tech fields; they excel as secret service agents, chemists, surgeons, lawyers, and choreographers. Clearly, 25/7s are well suited to any work that requires exceptionally deft thinking ability and skillful hands, especially if that work allows some quiet space. Insightful and private, 25/7s make excellent researchers, scholars, physics professors, and computer whizzes. The 5 energy colors their life path because 5s take in many things, while 7 creates an artistic pattern, seeking rhythm and harmony. Therefore, 25/7s have a strong aesthetic nature, and they are equally at home sitting by a computer or walking along a windblown beach. These world-class thinkers can do very well financially through a variety of means. Financial lack is usually linked to a lack of self-trust, to the scatteredness of 5, or to spending more than they earn in the quest for experience. But when working their energies in positive ways, 25/7s have minds that can do whatever they want and spirits that are there to serve and even, in some cases, to help liberate others.

4: Stability and Process

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 34/7 or 43/7 life path are here to work through issues of trust, patience, and emotional expression and to have faith in the spiritual process operating within their life, establishing security by finding practical ways to contribute to others. Both these life paths present the opportunity of blending the incisive mind of 7s with the down-to-earth practicality of mature 4s and the sensitivity and expressiveness of 3s. Because of the influence of 4, finding a sense of communion or unconditional trust depends on 34/7s and 43/7s following a step-by-step process of self-discovery. The deeper they go inside, the farther 34/7s and 43/7s see outside. Since our life purpose always offers some tests and hurdles, 34/7s and 43/7s may feel their energies in conflict, polarized, and pulling in different directions: While 7 tends to pull them "upward," into the higher mind or in some cases into metaphysical interests and practices, 4 tends to pull them "downward," into daily life, family, and practical business concerns. As these 7 and 4 energies mature and integrate, they form a powerful synthesis, enabling 34/7s and 43/7s to build a kind of bridge between heaven and Earth in creative ways, such as making money while bringing more beauty, happiness, or awareness into the world.
Most 34/7s and 43/7s closely resemble one another, except for the reverse order of the first two numbers; while 4 predominates with the primary 7 for 34/7s, 3 predominates with the primary 7 for 43/7s. Because of this, 34/7s experience more acutely issues dealing with stability and process in relation to self-trust; they confront a stronger tendency to skip steps, with secondary drives and issues related to expression and self-doubt. In contrast, 43/7s deal less with process issues and more with emotional sensitivity, including issues of expression and self-doubt, which make them slower to come to self-trust; therefore, 43/7s generally find their confidence later in life. Other than these rising and falling influences, both these life paths include the same fundamental energies, which interact to form powerful, sensitive, insightful individuals and challenging as well as versatile life issues. Both 34/7s and 43/7s are here to harmonize apparent opposites and to blend practicality and mysticism, outer and inner experience, flesh and spirit, worldly business and spiritual pursuits. They sometimes accomplish this through a "spiritual business," whether associated with a particular religion or, for example, selling books or teaching seminars devoted to themes of religion, spirituality, or personal growth. Whether or not 34/7s and 43/7s work in holistic business enterprises, they are here to bridge two worlds. The 3 indicates a drive for expression, and for uplifting others while living fully in the world rather than in a monastery, ashram, or forest.
Generally, 34/7s and 43/7s feel safer in the realm of the mind because of their exceptional analytical abilities, but they also have powerful emotions. They can act emotionally compulsive or impulsive, but the emotional sensitivity of 3 helps balance their mental energy. Both 34/7s and 43/7s experience a drive toward security, toward family, and toward business. Confronting issues in the area of foundations (4) means that they have to learn to ground themselves in the practical realities of life, which helps balance the imagination and flights of fancy of 7 and 5. They need to fulfill the practical part of their life and establish a stable base from which to build, step-by-step, a "staircase to Spirit." For 34/7s and 43/7s, a step-by-step stairway is a more apt metaphor than a springboard, because their life will rise or fall on the strength of their foundation and the care they take along their journey. A skipped step sends them tumbling back into self-doubt and isolation. People working these two life paths share 7 energy with 25/7s, but they have stronger emotional energy because of the 3. Like 25/7s, neither 34/7s nor 43/7s, by tendency, fully trust their feelings. They have fears and expectations that they will be misunderstood, so they don't share, which in turn creates misunderstandings. By applying the Law of Expectations, they can turn this tendency around, forming positive expectations and working toward positive outcomes.
Working 34/7 or 43/7 in the Positive
Strong, practical, physical, and spiritual, these individuals have learned to trust the mystery and wisdom of life working through them and through everyone else. These freethinkers trust in the process of their life, including the ups and downs, the difficulties and joys. Meditation, which quiets their mind, brings a sense of harmony and peace as a regular part of their life. Combining worldly interests with a commitment toward inner growth, these individuals dedicate their work, relationships, and activities to growth and awakening. They share their insightful nature based on direct experience and feel connected to Spirit even while pursuing the practical concerns of everyday life.
Working 34/7 or 43/7 in the Negative
These individuals feel torn between conflicting drives for security and desires to go inward and get away from the material world. Confused and troubled by a human world they don't trust, they see hypocrisy everywhere, reflecting the turmoil they feel inside. Self-doubt only aggravates self-trust issues, so they constantly look for teachers, techniques, and ideas that can help them; they become wandering spiritual vagabonds, seldom putting down roots long enough for anything to grow in their lives. Alternately, they want nothing to do with "crazy" spiritual things. Even though they may appear sociable and gregarious, they are wary of sharing their feelings and end up feeling alone.

Life-Path Issues
Health
Combining the sensitivity of 3 with the sturdiness of 4 and the mental capacity of 7 energy, 34/7s and 43/7s generally have strong bodies, but they still have a hard time trusting their own instincts or intuition. Due to subtle fears that their body may not know how to "take care of itself?' they seek solutions in either pharmaceuticals, surgery, or subtle medicines, herbs, and food supplements. When they begin trusting their instincts—for example, taking vitamins when their body tells them such vitamins are needed—they know instinctively just what to do and when to do it. Both 34/7s and 43/7s need to pay special attention to their own body's messages. Nutrition is an arena for learning self-trust; they need to listen to the body's wisdom and messages, not just the mind's ideas of what the body needs. They do best to avoid the tendency to follow others' theories of what's good for them and first confirm the advice with their own insides. Their body works with their higher instincts to maintain the strongest possible constitution. A low-fat, varied diet that helps maintain a sense of lightness and clarity benefits them, and most 34/7s and 43/7s do well to avoid dairy products. Issues with knees or the throat can appear when they are withholding expression. Strong physically and rarely ill unless stressed, both 34/7s and 43/7s can experience anxiety or "hysteria," which can take the form of nervous breakdowns.
Those 34/7s and 43/7s who have matured along their path seldom experience such maladies. If they do have a breakdown, however, 34/7s and 43/7s may need to be hospitalized temporarily, although they usually recover quickly. On the rare occasions when they experience a breakdown, it's best for them to accept the process and go through it without resistance. Afterward, they can appreciate all they have learned from the experience. 34/7s and 43/7s appreciate forms of skill training that have deeper meaning than just doing push-ups to get bigger muscles. Martial arts furnish an exceptional means to develop deeper trust in the body's spontaneous ability to learn and move. Dance or any free-movement form or sport can benefit them greatly. Routines that combine body, mind, and spirit usually hold their interest longest.
Relationships
In the positive, 34/7s and 43/7s bring stability, constancy, and feeling quality to their relationships. The 3 softens their tendency to stay mental. As long as they have developed open, honest communication and associated trust with their partner, their relationship thrives. Trust issues for 34/7s and 43/7s center on a subtle, underlying sense of feeling uncomfortable. They're not entirely relaxed when they're with others; it's as if they might say the wrong thing, which they sometimes set themselves up to do. The quality of their relationships and their sexual life depends upon openness, trust, and the vulnerability to share their feelings and "let go" to the point of ecstatic intimacy. Although they enjoy the comforts of home and family, these strong, spiritual personalities won't always stay in relationship for the sake of internal processing and growth.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Multifaceted energies create special challenges, abilities, and opportunities for 34/7s and 43/7s. The blend of 7, 4, and 3 makes for a much stronger, more resilient life path than any single number "on its own." Both 34/7s and 43/7s have strong creative and expressive potential, and they excel in a variety of fields, including metaphysics, martial arts, acting or producing, business, and creative writing, especially screenplays, due to their good structural sense. They do well as long as they trust themselves but stay open to feedback and take any project step-by-step. Many 34/7s, in particular, have compulsive and impulsive spending patterns; both 34/7s and 43/7s can behave frivolously with money. Ultimately, the state of their finances depends upon the process they follow and whether they have prepared for an occupation that makes good use of their skills. If not, self-doubt leaves them doing "a little bit of this, a little bit of that".

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 17/8 life path are here to work through issues related to money, power, and spirit; as they come to trust the creative spirit inside them and share that spirit with others, they realize abundance and inner power. Since our life path always involves challenges, before 17/8s can fulfill their destiny, they have to confront and overcome conflicting drives, fears, and beliefs about money and power, develop deeper trust in themselves and in Spirit, and access confidence and creativity. For 17/8s or any 8s, sharing abundance doesn't require that they be wealthy; even someone making a modest income can share a few dollars, some time, some energy, or even a bountiful spirit of generosity. Although the more inner-directed 7 energy and the more outer directed 8 energy might seem to pull in opposite directions, no such opposition exists when 17/8s work in the positive. As 17/8s begin to trust Spirit working through them, an underlying burden of paranoia and fear lifts, opening them to an expansiveness that attracts and generates the abundance that flows naturally from their creative energy. In other words, 17/8s must work through the issue of 7 energy in order to attract a full measure of fulfillment, no matter what the actual scale of their finances. Although 8 has a certain solidity and grounded materialism about it, the combination of 1 and 7 often gives to 17/8s the charisma of a "creative nature spirit"— light, airy, imaginative, and glowing. The 8 keeps them grounded and connected to Earth. Their more uplifted, inward, and spiritual energies can serve to balance and complement the 8 drive for recognition, wealth, and power.
If 17/8s are working in the negative, however, their inward 7 energy conflicts with and sabotages their energy as they withdraw from life and the outer work necessary to succeed. Most 8s have subtle tendencies to suppress their power; if they don't trust themselves to step forward into the world, they may accomplish nothing. Nevertheless, 1 tends to attract money; it has a "lucky" quality about it. When 17/8s let their creative energy flow into the world and begin to have a stronger sense of their spiritual side and the spiritual aspects of the world, money and influence come to them almost as if by magic. In addition, the creativity of 1 plus the mental acuity of 7, along with the powerful intelligence of 8, serve to create some of the most insightful, original, and even brilliant thinkers around. In the positive, 17/8s have no shortage of ideas to reach their goals. The 7, however, can exacerbate subconscious fears or avoidance of money or power; if 17/8s don't trust themselves overall, they are less likely to trust themselves with money or power, increasing the 8 tendency toward self-sabotage. Most 17/8s appear upbeat on the outside, but they have a difficult time knowing how to express themselves in the material world. Whether or not they feel religious or spiritual, 17/8s are here to combine inner growth and inspiration with very practical goals in the material world. For example, some 17/8s might decide to combine their interest in spirituality with material success by opening a bookstore specialising in uplifting, spiritual, or self-help themes and serving as a gathering place for many people. Not all 17/8s run such businesses, of course, but eventually they find the confidence and trust to create something that inspires themselves and others; in other words, they make good money, doing what they enjoy, in service of others. All 17/8s need to acknowledge rather than repress the drive they have for recognition and influence; they can enjoy playing in the material realm without losing sight of the reality that material success is empty without a higher purpose.
Working 17/8 in the Positive
These delightful and usually delighted individuals have bridged the worlds of business and spirit, combining an abiding, transcendental trust in themselves and in the world to direct them wherever they need to go. Trusting a higher power than their own, these spirited innovators find their own power as well, and they help empower and uplift others. They enjoy a sense of abundance that flows forth, attracted by their uplifting energy. As this energy moves into the world in service, and they use mind and money for higher purposes, whatever they do in the name of Spirit conies back in the form of further blessings.
Working 17/8 in the Negative
Insecure, withdrawn, and afraid of confrontation, these individuals feel baffled by the world. They want recognition, fear betrayal, and feel that something is missing—the spiritual side of their life. Over-controlling, they often feel mistrust in business dealings, and they have unexpressed inner conflicts about the morality of money. Pulled between inner and outer drives, they have a hard time being on the planet, in the sense of knowing what to do here. Although they may seem outgoing, they don't really share themselves or their very private inner processes. With the mental qualities of 7s and the power issues of 8s, they inadvertently talk over people's heads or sound preachy. They lack faith in the powers of self or Spirit.

Life-path issues
Health
The heart area of many 17/8s is sensitive to the degree they have unresolved trust issues or charged memories of betrayal. If working the negative aspects of 8 energy, 17/8s may engage in subconscious self-sabotage, which may include physical mishaps. If their creative energy feels blocked or suppressed, the lower abdomen, reproductive area, or lower back may flare up. A key for 17/8s involves exercise that gives them a sense of personal power and expansiveness, involves some form of skill practice to help them trust themselves, and keeps their creative energy flowing. Meditation also benefits 17/8 as a calming and grounding influence, giving their mind a rest. With the subconscious close to the surface for many 17/8s, they need to balance physical discipline with a little self-pampering, including indulgent but healthful activities, such as regular massage, swims, or saunas (depending upon the climate), which help nourish and recharge them. Unless 17/8s feel securely grounded in their physical body rather than identified with their mind, they may not pay sufficient attention to what they eat, although they are likely to be aware of nutritional guidelines. They can get so busy with creative or business projects that they don't make time for regular, relaxed meals. When they do, a light, low-fat, mostly vegetarian diet is optimal for 17/8s, who thrive on such a regimen.
Relationships
The quality of relationships for 17/8s depends upon whether they are working in the positive or negative, especially with regard to 7 energy. Most of these individuals require some time to trust and open enough for emotional intimacy. When working in the positive, they can even achieve a spiritual intimacy; until then, their spouse or partner may say, "I never feel like I know who you really are or what you're feeling". But 7s and 8s can feel uncomfortable revealing their inner life, fearing shame, vulnerability, or both. Power struggles can also arise, because 17/8s often act rigid and controlling when feeling insecure Most 17/8s, at one time or another, give away their power or assertiveness due to a lack of self-trust and a fear of power; then they want to take their power back, but they aren't always sure how to balance it. They need to learn to share their inner sense of power and empower others. Sexual issues are highly dependent on how 17/8s manifest 7 energy--that is, whether they feel open or inhibited. If they feel open, their creative juices translate into active sexual needs, so barring childhood traumas, sex isn't generally a problem for 17/8s; intimacy is. As they refine and transform their trust and power issues, relationships become a stronger priority in their lives, furnishing the means to feel a deeper sense of connection.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Nearly all 17/8s have a powerful, insightful mind and inherent drive for success; this, along with their creative potential, provides the fuel for successful endeavors in a variety of fields ranging from sports to pohtics. They make excellent financial analysts or heads of service organisations, reaching out to many, doing public work in a private way. Eventually, some 17/8s will become philanthropists, perhaps even starting charitable foundations, small or large. Or they may open a bookstore or other business that allows them to serve others. When 17/8s trust their intuition and make creative decisions on that basis, money just seems to show up, and they become extremely successful without knowing why or how.

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 26/8 life path are here to work through issues of perfectionism, money, power, and recognition, sharing their abundance in alignment with their highest vision and ideals, in the service of others. Since our life purpose poses specific challenges, the life of 26/8s reflects their conflicting drives and beliefs about money, power, and high profile, and their innate idealism can tend to inhibit the personal power they are here to make manifest. Eventually, 26/8s stand up, assert themselves, and gain recognition within their family, in their community, or in the world at large. When 26/8s get recognized, it's usually due to the quality of their work. They can work hard for money and recognition, but they have mixed feelings about both due to their inherent idealism. In the negative, the influence of 2 can create inner conflicts, for example, about whether they're undervaluing their service and charging too little or feeling "greedy" and charging too much. The 6 part of them may say, "Charge less; it's the right thing to do," while the 8 part may say, "I want more!" or may be so afraid of abusing money that they give their skills away for free to avoid the risk of someone being upset or angry with them. Many 26/8s are sensitive to criticism due to the 6 influence, which also can mean they hold back from expressing themselves to maintain their "cool." Those working 26/8 tend to be either passive or aggressive, but in general, they usually tend to be more subdued. Depending on their level of self-worth, which may be shaky due to the high standards of the 6, they tend to give away their power and lack self-assertiveness when dealing with emotional confrontations. Given their high standards, 26/8s often deflect praise and devalue their worth and influence; ignoring their achievements and remembering their mistakes, they have trouble truly enjoying the fruits of their efforts. When caught in repetitive rituals of achievement, 26/8s need to remember the magic words "not perfect but good enough." When they stop holding themselves back, they produce quality work that supports others. Unless they are hiding, 26/8s work hard to rise above the crowd in their immediate surroundings or in the world at large; they strive for security and recognition, although most 8s would deny that they seek recognition unless they're willing to take a close look at their life and their actions —for example, when they're in a group of people,
they arrange to get noticed. If they are working 8 in the negative, they may be hiding from money, power, or recognition—avoiding the very arenas they are here to master.
Most 26/8s tend to compete with and compare themselves to others in terms of levels of recognition, wealth, or influence. Deep down, they want to come out on top, although this desire may be subtle or subdued because of the 6 influence. If they become aware of this tendency, 26/8s generally want to "correct" it. Their desire for improvement, however, becomes more of the same game of comparison: "I no longer compare myself to others like those otherpeople I know." Most 26/8s work very hard to achieve money or recognition because a core belief generated by the high standards of 6 is that they have to "suffer," or at least go through difficulty and discomfort, to earn or deserve their abundance. Due to their high standards, whatever 26/8s do, they feel they could have done better. This can hold them back from stepping forward in their family, among colleagues, or in the world. But when 26/8s get past their issues about money and power, which include negative feelings about wealthy or powerful people, they tend to make good money and use it to bring out a stronger sense of self. When struggling financially, they may feel controlled by others; when successful, they tend to feel expansive and generous. Those working 26/8 often display a childlike purity stemming from the influence of 6 energy, and they often mature late. The demands and challenges of raising a family as well as working in or creating a successful business provide the initiation to help them feel like competent adults. Without such challenges, they may avoid hard work and recognition and do just enough to "get by." Perfectionism, along with fear of money or power, can hold some 26/8s back from getting off the ground; they may feel disheartened, not by life's challenges, but by their own unrealistic expectations,
Nearly all 26/8s want to control their own life, but at the same time, they want to "do the right thing" by others. Therefore, they sometimes give mixed messages to other people; on the surface, they want to please and to be liked, but beneath this, others may sense a powerful, even compulsive, drive for control. When feeling powerless, 26/8s find it hard to stand up for themselves; they typically experience and subconsciously attract subtle or not-so-subtle forms of abuse in their life, ranging from being taken for granted, being taken advantage of, and being verbally criticized to being physically beaten. They generally seek to avoid social or emotional confrontations, but when pushed to the wall, few people can push back harder. Although the pure ideals of 6 generally keep 26/8s from abusing power or squandering money, if they don't feel worthy of success, they may subconsciously arrange for an accident, a dishonest or incompetent partner, or another form of self-sabotage. The Law of Higher Will helps open the way to a life of abundance and service for 26/8s by reminding them of their higher purpose.
Working 26/8 in the Positive
With their high standards and vision, these individuals make good money, doing what they enjoy, serving other people. They feel a sense of balanced inner power in their relationships, their work, and their life. Out of a sense of expansive abundance, they can hold on or let go as appropriate, without the need to manipulate or control others. They maintain their sense of fairness and integrity and serve as a positive and uplifting influence in the world, using their power and position to help others, perhaps through philanthropy. They hold money and recognition in perspective, focusing on their higher purpose.
Working 26/8 in the Negative
These unassertive individuals feel timid, invisible, and ignored. Deeply frustrated in their own endeavors, they resent "rich people" due to their own negative beliefs about money. They find it difficult to get along with others or to form relationships, and they get into power struggles unless the lines of authority are clearly defined. Over-controlling perfectionists, they are critical of others, especially those who don't show them respect. They undervalue themselves and their work, judging themselves against unrealistically high standards, and they refrain from taking on challenges in the material world. They not only avoid the fast lane, they don't even get on the highway.

Life-path issues
Health
If 26/8s haven't resolved their perfectionistic standards and subconscious negativity about money and power, they may sabotage themselves by getting ill, divorced, or injured to avoid a big success. If frustrated, 26/8s may experience chronic tension in their solar plexus, inhibiting breathing and draining their energy, or tension around the neck from self-imposed pressure. When they are run-down, 26/8s may develop sinus infections, a sure sign for them to ease up on themselves. They tend to drive themselves too hard, then have to recuperate, but a short period of self-pampering is usually all that's required. Most 26/8s pay attention to laws of good nutrition due to their high standards, but because they work hard, they also like to indulge themselves in ways ranging from having a "relaxing drink" or taking other drugs to treating themselves to a massage, sauna, and maybe sweets as a consolation for their efforts. The pattern of hard work and then indulgence, along with wanting to maintain a high self-image, means that some 26/8s fall into eating disorders as they over-control and then under-control themselves, resulting in dietary swings or even bulimia or anorexia. Moderation can be a challenge for 26/8s. With their high standards, 26/8s seek to improve their diet and everything else in their life. As with most people, a varied, low-fat diet works well for them. Most 26/8s who exercise regularly tend to seek an efficient and balanced form of exercise. Depending upon their background and interests, they may pursue sports as a means of achieving recognition or practice weight lifting as a way to feel powerful. Any kind of physical activity that appeals to them works fine, and they usually excel at whatever they do.
Relationships
The standards of 26/8s are so high that they can be hard to live with; either they're judging everyone else by these standards or they're setting an almost impossible example as they strive to be a Mr. or Ms. Perfect. Those working 26/8 may have trouble knowing or expressing how they really feel because they have learned to focus on the "best way" to feel and then wear that mask. They need to tune into their authentic feelings and needs. Many 26/8s have trouble with long-term relationships or making commitments, especially when they are focusing on trying to find the "perfect" relationship. In other cases, they start out by projecting an idealised image on someone and then feel disappointed or even deceived when that person turns out to be only human after all. Then they set out to improve that person whether he or she is interested or not. In relationships, 26/8s benefit from applying the Law of Flexibility (p. 324). Sexually, 26/8s want to do the right thing, and they often focus on "being good" in bed and pleasing their partner rather than expressing their own needs and then just letting go. They may tend to maintain control subtly, either of their partner or just of themselves. They need to shift from performance to loving interplay and intimacy. Then their relationship reflects back to them tiie abundance they feel inside.
Talents, Work, and Finances
"When working in the positive, due to their high standards and their drive for recognition and success, 26/8s can do almost anything well and tend to rise above the crowd because they work hard and strive to improve themselves. Yet they rarely feel like they're performing as well as they could. They need to feel appreciated for their work, and they tend to strive for a high income. Due to their high ideals, they sometimes have a hard time finding work that feels meaningful enough. Driven toward yet afraid of high profile and recognition, they tend to be late bloomers until, finally, they come to value themselves and the quality of their work, emerging as a positive influence on others.

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 35/8 life path are here to work through issues of emotional honesty, independence, and power, manifesting abundance, authority, and freedom achieved through discipline and depth of experience. Because our life purpose does not come easily, an inherent challenge for 35/8s involves the dynamic tension between drives for wealth, power, and respect and fears of these qualities. This inner conflict frames the life of 35/8s and manifests in both passive and aggressive tendencies,- they either behave in a subdued, passive manner, or they act pushy, flamboyant, or even ruthless. One challenge for 35/8s lies in accepting and integrating the passive and aggressive parts of their makeup to form a more balanced and authentic self of acknowledged power and presence. The life path of 35/8s unfolds in the world of action and influence. Their capacities and genius he in the areas of authority, leadership, and responsibility. Unless they are inhibited by unconscious fears of their own power, 35/8s can be very dramatic, even ostentatious or flamboyant. When they make a lot of money, they know how to spend it with class. Wealth, power, and respect fascinate or even preoccupy 35/8s the way a weapon might fascinate a child who is attracted to it but avoids it for fear of doing harm. "With their underlying ruthless drive for success, despite their mild exterior, 35/8s have a repressed power that can at times make other people uncomfortable even though they don't know why; this power sometimes frightens 35/8s themselves. The Law of Higher Will can serve to remind 35/8s of their higher purpose and open the way for them to clear subconscious fears and associated tendencies to sabotage themselves. Such self-sabotage can take the form of having physical accidents, alienating other people, "forgetting" to renew their health or fire insurance, arriving at appointments chronically late, or losing money in speculation or gambling. Self-sabotage ends when they establish a heartfelt commitment to service.
Before 35/8s can truly serve, however, they have to dedicate and use their success for the common good. They need to begin from an assumption of inner power, freedom, and abundance, rather than from a state of need or dependence. In other words, 35/8s experience wealth when they start out feeling their abundance by counting their blessings right now; this gratitude attracts more blessings. The key to resolution for 35/8s lies not in pursuing or avoiding wealth or power for their own sakes, but in manifesting them in the course of providing a valuable service in the world. In fact, 35/8s benefit from visualizing themselves making good money, doing what they enjoy, while serving other people—with the emphasis on service. Such visual images help to attract the support of a reluctant or fearful subconscious. Volunteer work or any gesture of selfless service also helps 35/s to overcome subconscious resistance and self-sabotage. As they come to feel more deserving, they get out of their own way. Since most 35/8s don't tend to give unless they expect to get something back, selfless service can provide powerful leverage for change. Those working 35/8 share the same life purpose as other 8s, but the influence of 3 and 5 creates very different strengths and hurdles on the path to positive fulfillment of their destiny. With the quick wit and versatility of 5 come strong issues around discipline; 35/8s have intense ambitions but may not appreciate or be willing to do the work necessary to achieve these goals. Their ambitions outstrip their discipline; they sometimes wait for their ship to come before they've sent one out. The positive impact of a healthy discipline and focus in their life cannot be overestimated. Discipline leads to personal power and self-control (rather than attempts to control others). When 35/8s practice discipline in their life, they do the work necessary to manifest success. Although they have a steep climb up the mountain, because what we're here to do doesn't come easiest, the rewards are significant, both personally and in terms of their potential contribution to the world. Even if they are willing to work hard, many 35/8s get scattered trying to do too much, diluting their efforts by pursuing too many opportunities. Discipline in the form of focus responds to and balances this scattering tendency and amplifies their effectiveness. These individuals also need to balance a tendency to swing from extreme dependence when feeling passivity or self-doubt to extreme independence when feeling aggressive; they do this by forming balanced, mutually supportive, interdependent relationships in their personal and professional lives.
If 35/s get stuck in neediness, they tend, almost out of desperation, to use others in their world as means for advancement or learning that may lead to their liberation. When they shift this attitude and see everyone and every situation as an opportunity to serve and share themselves, their life makes a corresponding shift. With the influence of 3 energy, 35/8s can feel inhibited about expressing their feelings, especially ones that aren't "nice". This inhibition may manifest, as it does for others working 3, in their talking abstractly or in their not sharing much at all unless someone draws them out. The 3 can also signal a tendency to manipulate or strategies to get what they want without stating their desires directly. The Law of Honesty applies to 35/8s both in terms of direct and honest expression and also in terms of following the law; 35/8s do best when they follow the highest ethics in business and personal relationships. At first this may seem to go against the grain because they generally don't want to be bound or tied down to conventions; they are used to making the rules, not following them. The more 35/8s freely share their money, power, freedom, and sensitive heart, the more they get back from the world; the more expansive they are, the more their abundance expands. The fulfilment of their destiny lies not in 35/8s' awesome mental capacity, but in their capacity to love and sacrifice. Their life path comes to fruition not merely through achieving wealth or power, but through using money and power in self-transcending service to the world.
Working 35/8 in the Positive
These individuals have achieved a sense of inner abundance and power through inner discipline, and many blessings have appeared in their life—blessings of abundance they share generously and wisely through their high intelligence and expressive abilities. Others view them as powerful leaders due to their powerful mind, their ability to see the bigger picture, and their genius at getting things done. Emotionally open and vulnerable, they know when to stand their ground and when to let go. These self-made people have a generous, philanthropic nature, taking on positions of leadership and authority. Their relationships are open and mutually supportive.
Working 35/8 in the Negative
People fear these individuals without knowing why. Their drive for success, along with dependent feelings and self-doubt, lead them to a tendency toward opportunism as they seek to obtain from others the power and support they haven't found within. They tend to express and control indirectly, through manipulation. They desire wealth and power, but they lack the necessary focus or discipline and tend to sabotage their own efforts because of their inner conflicts. Feeling bad about themselves and powerless and frustrated over their circumstances, they have difficulties with lasting relationships, which degenerate into struggles for control or alternate between aggressive independence and extreme dependence and neediness.

Life-path issues
Health
Generally, 35/8s have strong constitutions. However, when they spread themselves too thin, driven by scattered ambitions, they face burnout and possible injuries due to distraction, ignoring traffic laws, or self-sabotage. All 35/8s should wear seat belts and avoid high-risk activities, especially in their late twenties. The preceding problems occur less frequently when 35/8s focus their energies, balance hard work with rest, and commit themselves to working for a higher purpose, thus minimizing the tendency toward self-sabotage. If 35/8s make work their god, dietary discipline or refinement may take a back seat. Generally, 35/8s' keen intelligence leads them to make informed dietary choices. They are wise to treat food as a medicine for optimal functioning. Like most people without specific dietary needs, a balanced, low-fat, primarily vegetarian diet is optimal. How 35/8s eat is nearly as important as whatthey eat, and their biggest dietary challenge is moderation, since they may over-control or under-control in this area. Depending upon their values, background, and lifestyle, 35/8s may or may not make exercise a priority in their life, but they are well suited to forms of exercise that bring a feeling of personal power, such as martial arts, weight training, and individual sports.
Relationships
In many cases, 35/8s have difficulty sustaining long-term relationships until they are thirty or forty years old; before that time, they tend to fall into power struggles. If their passive and aggressive tendencies haven't yet found a balance, they experience subtle or not-so-subtle control issues in their relationships, as well as issues concerning dependence and independence. On the positive side, 35/8s can be exceptionally attentive and enjoyable to be with, and as they begin working their powerful combination of energies in the positive, they are able to sustain happy, passionate, mutually supportive relationships. Although 35/8s can be dedicated parents and loving partners, their work is almost always the center of their lives, and it helps if they find self-sufficient partners who understand their dedication to their work from the outset. Many 35/8s bring the emotional sensitivity and self-doubt of 3 energy into their relationships. At the same time, their blend of a powerful, versatile mind and wit, along with sensitivity and a strong drive for success, leads them to connect with friends and lovers on many levels. In the highest sense, 35/8s can form lasting bonds based on mutual sharing, mutual sacrifice, and mutual generosity of spirit. Their sexual expression reflects this energy.

These individuals are here to use their powerful mind, often bordering on genius, to create wealth through service, to step forward in positions of benign leadership and authority in their family, in their community, or, for example, in the arenas of industry or politics. These individuals make excellent inventors, innovators, or writers; they excel in any field in which a brilliant and curious mind has free reign. In one of the highest aspects of their life path, 35/8s may assume the role of a philanthropist, generously sharing their wealth and influence in service of a humanitarian cause. Financial issues always have significance for 35/8s, on whatever scale, since money is one of the central themes of their life path.

Generally, 35/8s have strong constitutions. However, when they spread themselves too thin, driven by scattered ambitions, they face burnout and possible injuries due to distraction, ignoring traffic laws, or self-sabotage. All 35/8s should wear seat belts and avoid high-risk activities, especially in their late twenties. The preceding problems occur less frequently when 35/8s focus their energies, balance hard work with rest, and commit themselves to working for a higher purpose, thus minimizing the tendency toward self-sabotage. If 35/8s make work their god, dietary discipline or refinement may take a back seat. Generally, 35/8s' keen intelligence leads them to make informed dietary choices. They are wise to treat food as a medicine for optimal functioning. Like most people without specific dietary needs, a balanced, low-fat, primarily vegetarian diet is optimal. How 35/8s eat is nearly as important as whatthey eat, and their biggest dietary challenge is moderation, since they may over-control or under-control in this area. Depending upon their values, background, and lifestyle, 35/8s may or may not make exercise a priority in their life, but they are well suited to forms of exercise that bring a feeling of personal power, such as martial arts, weight training, and individual sports.
Relationships
In many cases, 35/8s have difficulty sustaining long-term relationships until they are thirty or forty years old; before that time, they tend to fall into power struggles. If their passive and aggressive tendencies haven't yet found a balance, they experience subtle or not-so-subtle control issues in their relationships, as well as issues concerning dependence and independence. On the positive side, 35/8s can be exceptionally attentive and enjoyable to be with, and as they begin working their powerful combination of energies in the positive, they are able to sustain happy, passionate, mutually supportive relationships. Although 35/8s can be dedicated parents and loving partners, their work is almost always the center of their lives, and it helps if they find self-sufficient partners who understand their dedication to their work from the outset. Many 35/8s bring the emotional sensitivity and self-doubt of 3 energy into their relationships. At the same time, their blend of a powerful, versatile mind and wit, along with sensitivity and a strong drive for success, leads them to connect with friends and lovers on many levels. In the highest sense, 35/8s can form lasting bonds based on mutual sharing, mutual sacrifice, and mutual generosity of spirit. Their sexual expression reflects this energy.

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 44/8 life path are here to work through issues of money, control, responsibility, and stable foundations, following a systematic process to achieve material success—not for its own sake, but in support of other people or causes. Because our life path is strewn with obstacles that test and strengthen us, before 44/8s can manifest their destiny in the positive, they have to overcome negative tendencies, such as a stubborn reluctance to follow through with a gradual, step-by-step process. When mature, 44/8s can show heroic persistence; short of mat, however, they want to make success happen right now or give up ("Just forget the whole thing"). They don’t usually feel as discouraged or disheartened as 3s; instead, 44/8s often feel impatient, angry, and frustrated, especially if they haven't yet grasped the absolute necessity of gradual progress over time, broken down into small, manageable steps, as stated in the Law of Process. Whatever else 44/8s do in their hfe, they need to spend some time on introspection, so they can come to analyze, understand, and accept, rather than resist, the necessary stepping-stones to their destiny. As with others who have double digits in their birth numbers, such as 22/4s and 33/6s, what 44/8s lack in numerical variety, they make up for in focus and intensity. Take the usual stability, strength, and business acumen of 4s and double it; blend the potential qualities of strength and stubbornness, fortitude and rigidity, analytical brilliance and confusion, commitment and instability, ambition and impatience; combine that blend with the drive of 8s for abundance, power, and recognition, and you understand why 44/8s face such a challenge and such an opportunity. As with any hfe path, the quality of hfe and the fulfilment of their destiny depend upon whether 44/8s are working the 4 and 8 in the positive.
As with every birth number that has twin digits on the left, the first number represents internal challenges—in this case the challenge of inner stability. Individuals working 44/8 need a willingness to introspect and to develop internal processes to strengthen and support the self, such as some form of self-analysis, but they need to avoid getting so obsessed with this process that they go into over analysis and resultant confusion. As in the case of 2s, balance is key. The second 4 represents the need for 44/8s to establish an outer foundation within their family—to work out their issues with their parents and their children, if any. Working issues out may mean expressing feelings, positive and negative; it may mean asking forgiveness or offering it; or it may mean finding a common point of understanding or simply agreeing to disagree. In any case, it means communicating and working through issues that might otherwise get swept under the rug. Most 44/8s share strong concerns and drives in the area of security and stability. Money in the bank, food in the refrigerator, a car in the garage, and clothing in the closet are all essential for 44/8s. Whereas the security of having enough is key for 4s, the issues of 8s involve having more than "enough". As a result, 44/8s have intelligence, strength, drive, ambition, and desire in abundance. Given the inherent challenges of their life path, most 44/8s experience issues with family, with security, and overall, with process. Their willingness to live in alignment with the Law of Process makes or breaks them. In general 44/8s can reach their goals in relationships business, health, or spirituality and fulfill their life purpose by following a methodical, practical, step-by-step path. If they skip one step, this usually means they slide back down the mountain and have to start over.
The Law of Patterns can save 44/8s a lot of time by reminding them how to break repetitive patterns of failure or incompletion, If 44/8s ignore or disregard these laws, they learn some hard lessons. Theirs is not a subtle life path; sometimes life uses high drama to get their attention. Confusion can plague 44/8s whenever they face an important decision because they tend to analyze everything to death and then feel disoriented. They often behave very compulsively or impulsively in spending, eating, or other areas of life. Like 2s, they need to find a balance between their mind and their emotions. With double 4 energy, 44/8s can display extraordinary strength, persistence, and internal fortitude; in the negative, that strength turns to stubbornness and rigidity. Because of the control issues of 8 energy, few people can change the mind of 44/8s unless they decide to change, and many 44/8s unduly limit themselves, becoming fixed or rigid in their ideas or approaches due to fear of failure. If they don't listen to feedback from others, they hit brick walls of their own creation. Therefore, 44/8s are wise to remain flexible and stay open to options before becoming set in one direction or burning bridges before they've crossed them. As they integrate the energies of double 4 and 8, 44/8s reach out to serve others as their sense of abundance grows.
Working 44/8 in the Positive
With the fortitude, perseverance, and analytical skills to take the necessary steps from where they are to where they want to go, no goal is beyond the reach of these individuals. Their mind approaches any task as a series of component parts, breaking down big goals into small steps. Their health and vitality are exceptional; they take good care of themselves and show necessary caution and care. Loyal and dependable, they form stable and lasting relationships, and they enjoy a sense of family and community with society at large. Powerful and practical, with commonsense business acumen and a drive for success, they allow their strength, their ability to follow a process, and their flexibility to take them to a life of abundance, not just for themselves, but for a larger cause.
Working 44/8 in the Negative
These individuals usually manage to maintain control, but they tend to be on the hysterical side. Confused and stressed, when they reach the end of their rope, they may "let go" in the form of nervous breakdowns. With their stubborn, blind faith in themselves, they seem to repeat the same mistakes again and again. Their relationships are a source of pain and frustration because they constantly engage in power struggles and arguments. They may have made a lot of money and then lost it; they search for a sense of stability but cannot make a commitment to anything or anyone. They desire success without being willing to take the steps to achieve it. They feel responsible for too much, yet they try to avoid responsibility for fear they'll fail.

Life-path issues
Health
Those working 44/8 do not let anyone tell them how to eat or exercise, or how to do anything else. Nevertheless, a low-fat, efficient, balanced diet is especially important for them, because, with the double 4 energy, unless they pursue regular exercise, they tend to put on weight, not just externally but in their internal organs. Nearly all 44/8s thrive on a regular exercise regimen that emphasises flexibility, relaxation, balance, and meditation to counteract tendencies toward rigidity, tension, and resistance. Practicing aikido or tai
chi, which model the Law of Flexibility, can benefit 44/8s. These arts teach nonresistance—making use of whatever one faces—and they also teach blending, softness, and balance; in addition, both of these disciplines require a patient process to reach mastery. Once 44/8s master this process, they can then apply it to anything else in daily life.
Relationships
Most 44/8s bring the powerful qualities of loyalty, stability, stead fastness, and support to their relationships. In the negative, they may get caught in power struggles as already mentioned and may lack stability if they haven't yet learned the lessons of their life path. When working in the positive, however, 44/8s can maintain a healthy long-term relationship; family and children become priorities in their life, although work remains central. Although 44/8s certainly possess an emotional life, they are not as strongly centered in the emotions as people working other birth numbers. Their partners may have to appreciate them for their loyalty, strength, and vitality rather than for their sensitivity. It can be hard to get through to them, so subtle hints don't work well. The approach of 44/8s to sexuality may be lusty, practical, and enthusiastic unless they are dealing with issues of childhood sexual abuse that need to be confronted. They are generally most compatible with someone whose sensitivity balances their strength, but in such a case, it's important that both they and their partner appreciate their different styles.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Those working 44/8 often lead or control a business or other enterprise, or they may provide the analytical brains behind the operation. Their success depends almost entirely on whether or not they're willing to go through the gradual or sometimes lengthy process to achieve their goals. In general, 44/8s serve as insightful analysts in the fields of business, psychotherapy, and government intelligence, to name a few. Financial security is a prime motivator for 44/8s, but whether they gather "nest eggs" depends upon the quality of the nest they build. In other words, they achieve great success in the material realm if they develop their foundation, do their homework and preparation, and pay their dues. Achieving financial stability doesn't usually come easily for 44/8s, but they possess all of the qualities necessary to achieve success. The key for them is to transcend the issue by using their success to serve the community that they have come to perceive as their larger family.
Some Well-Known 44/8s
No well-known 44/8s appear in our records, probably because this birth number appears far less often in the current population and because the first 44/8s were born in 1959 and are still relatively young.

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 18/9 life path are here to work through issues of honesty, money, control, and confidence, creatively manifesting and applying their energy and influence in accordance with higher principles of integrity. Many 18/9s can appear expansive, outgoing, even jovial, but there is nothing frivolous about their inner life, which contains shadows of guilt, fear, and insecurity. Given that our life purpose always poses special challenges, 18/9s need to work through deeply rooted, often conflicting attraction and avoidance related to money and power, as well as insecurity issues, on their path to integrity and wisdom. Because integrity rests at the pinnacle of their life purpose, 18/9s must, whether they prefer it or not, rely on the qualities of high ethics and honesty. They either lead by inspiring example or they mislead and get made into examples. Like others working 9 energy, 18/9s live a life of truth or consequences. Those 18/9s who live in accordance with higher laws create a very good, satisfying life of honest, diligent work, enjoying the rewards that accrue from their labors. Those 18/9s who ignore higher laws soon face the law of cause and effect as life gives them feedback they can't ignore. Most 18/9s have a powerful mind, attractive charisma, and abundant energy. This combination of the energies, issues, and drives associated with their birth number makes for extremely powerful leaders who can inspire whole countries, move mountains, and build empires—or who can, with ruthless fanaticism, utterly crush those who oppose them. Demands in the 8 arena of wealth and power and the 9 arena of integrity, amplified by the creative energy of 1, can place heavy internal burdens on those 18/9s who haven't yet recognized and made peace with their inner drives.
The powerful blend of qualities and drives influencing 18/9s tends to attract money and influence and drive them to success unless they sabotage their own efforts. Their veiled insecurity, associated with 1 energy, may be obscured by compensatory behaviors of bluster, competitiveness, and forcefulness, but just beneath the surface of their power and assertiveness lies a certain passivity due to a fear of the surging power of their inner drives. If 18/9s work their energy in the positive, they can lead and inspire others by example; their integrity and creativity command the intense respect and loyalty of followers. Therefore, 18/9s most often are drawn to or put in positions of leadership, whether in large or small arenas. If 18/9s work their energy in the negative, their drive for power and wealth becomes obsessive, their opinions become fanatical, and their creative energy becomes destructive to self and others. In other words, 18/9s have the potential to do much good or much harm. No matter how successful their life may look on the outside, 18/9s face internal issues and conflicts that can generate physical illness or other difficulties, almost as if the subconscious imposes its own internal restraints. Because the challenges of 18/9s reside in the subconscious, they need to seek their answers within. However, since they tend to focus more on material success in the outside world than on their internal growth, they may resist insight work. Whether they appear introspective or not, 18/9s eventually have to examine these issues in response to the internal weight they carry, a burden of subconscious pain. Self-examination, understanding, and forgiveness can eventually lead 18/9s to a heartfelt connection to the spiritual laws at the core of life, sharing wealth and dedicating themselves to service rather than to the accumulation of material resources or influence. They serve others by inspiration—living as an example of integrity—of power blended with compassion and aligned with a higher will.
All 18/9s need to ask themselves very carefully, "Am I living an exemplary life?" They then need to listen to the answer. If 18/9s do not practice what they preach—and they definitely do preach—life will get their attention in some dramatic ways, including illness, accidents, and ruined relationships. There's nothing very subtle about this birth number, and there's nothing subtle about life's feedback. Sooner or later, one way or the other, when 18/9s have seen enough, felt enough, and learned enough to align their life with the higher laws of integrity, they direct their energies and resources toward the highest good of all concerned. In the process, they transcend their old tendencies and their pain. The stronger their internal commitment to a higher purpose, the more likely that their energies will manifest in positive ways. The Law of Honesty is key for 18/9s; their deep connection to spiritual laws can help guide them toward their destiny. Due to their natural energy, charisma, and personal power, 18/9s stand out in any crowd.
Working 18/9 in the Positive
These individuals have a natural depth, charisma, and magnetism. They have an outgoing, charismatic personality that reflects both intelligence and broader wisdom. Their work at home, in their community, or in the world at large reflects their natural leadership by example. Brilliant strategists who know and follow the rules of any game they play, they use their influence and share their abundance to make a difference beyond themselves. With their spiritual power made manifest, they lead by example and by inspiration and provide valuable ideas to others. Life is never boring around them. Hardworking and creative, they subordinate their work to a higher good.
Working 18/9 in the Negative
Although their outer world may look good from the viewpoint to others, the inner world of these individuals is filled with turmoil, suppressed fear, and a sense of heaviness, laden with the idea of sin and salvation. They long for health and inner peace, but they get caught up in their own opinions and tend to seek absolute power and control. They preach to others, overtly or subtly, about how life should be lived, but they do not follow their own dictates. They resist what arises in their own life and want to control the lives of others. They lose sight of the larger gifts contained in their own challenges.

Life-path issues
Health
Many 18/9s experience average or even excellent health; others suffer from asthma, bone or nerve problems, including pain in the neck or lower spine, or other symptoms that reflect and result from long-term subconscious fears of abusing power. The suffering they have felt, whether on physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual levels, has sent them deeper and farther on their own journey; in the positive, physical ailments teach 18/9s compassion. In areas of nutrition and exercise, the principles for 18/9s are very simple and very clear: Learn what is the most healthful, and live that way. Most 18/9s like hard work; when they direct this energy toward any kind of exercise, their life benefits. What kind of exercise they choose is less important than that they do it, because exercise is a simple way to practice alignment with natural law; 18/9s either exercise and feel better or don't exercise and learn the consequences over time. The same principle applies to nutrition. Rather than following a particular regimen, the key for 18/9s is to eat more of what is enlivening and nutritious and less of what isn't; again, the law of cause and effect operates very clearly for anyone working 9. The more they practice integrity in the area of health by finding out what is healthful and following through with it, the better example 18/9s provide for others to follow.
Relationships
Although 18/9s can be intense and attentive, intimacy and vulnerability may not come easily for them due to latent insecurity and control issues. Nevertheless, 18/9s can offer charm, energy, and depth to others. A key for them is finding a partner who stands up to them and helps them balance power with sensitivity—someone who understands and accepts them as they are so that they can come to accept and even forgive themselves. Although marrying and raising a family are not usually the center of their life, 18/9s can certainly create a family setting as a backdrop for the larger theater of their life. With their powerful creative energy and deep-seated need to connect with others, the sexual drive of 18/9s reflects strong physical, emotional, and spiritual needs, whether or not they are aware of them. When they are working in the positive, they can experience a profound connection through their sexual expression.
Talents, Work, and Finances
The powerful qualities of 18/9s generally take them to positions of leadership. For example, 18/9s are more likely to be attorneys, building contractors, surgeons, or administrators than store clerks. With their dynamic and creative minds, 18/9s are usually one step ahead of most everyone. The significance and potential of 18/9s lies not in what they do, but in how they do it; as long as they reach out to people and live a balanced life of integrity, based on the wisdom of living in accordance with spiritual law, they find deep fulfillment in line with their life path. Their generally sound financial circumstances reflect their energy and abilities except when they get in their own way with negative beliefs or fears. The important thing for 18/9s is never to strive for money for its own sake, but rather to create money and influence as a natural outcome of useful service. When they are committed to service as their goal, abundance and influence follow naturally due to their creative inspiration and powerful mind.

Many 18/9s experience average or even excellent health; others suffer from asthma, bone or nerve problems, including pain in the neck or lower spine, or other symptoms that reflect and result from long-term subconscious fears of abusing power. The suffering they have felt, whether on physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual levels, has sent them deeper and farther on their own journey; in the positive, physical ailments teach 18/9s compassion. In areas of nutrition and exercise, the principles for 18/9s are very simple and very clear: Learn what is the most healthful, and live that way. Most 18/9s like hard work; when they direct this energy toward any kind of exercise, their life benefits. What kind of exercise they choose is less important than that they do it, because exercise is a simple way to practice alignment with natural law; 18/9s either exercise and feel better or don't exercise and learn the consequences over time. The same principle applies to nutrition. Rather than following a particular regimen, the key for 18/9s is to eat more of what is enlivening and nutritious and less of what isn't; again, the law of cause and effect operates very clearly for anyone working 9. The more they practice integrity in the area of health by finding out what is healthful and following through with it, the better example 18/9s provide for others to follow.
Relationships
Although 18/9s can be intense and attentive, intimacy and vulnerability may not come easily for them due to latent insecurity and control issues. Nevertheless, 18/9s can offer charm, energy, and depth to others. A key for them is finding a partner who stands up to them and helps them balance power with sensitivity—someone who understands and accepts them as they are so that they can come to accept and even forgive themselves.

2: Cooperation and Balance
Understanding life purpose
Those on the 27/9 life path are here to work through issues of balanced responsibility, self-trust, and integrity as they come to trust and follow Spirit manifesting within them and others, living in alignment with the higher wisdom of the heart. Since our life purpose represents an uphill climb, 27/9s eventually confront and have to overcome tendencies to mentalize experience rather than trust their heart. They also need to work through subconscious issues of mistrust and betrayal and open their guarded heart to find and follow the spiritual laws "written" there. In order to access the higher laws of their heart, 27/9s must first let go of their concerns about others' opinions and trust their own higher wisdom revealed in their feelings rather than their mental processes. The 7, however, often leads 27/9s to trust everyone but themselves—teachers, masters, scientific experts, or advisers—and to live by other people's theories. We can all learn from others, but 27/9s in particular are here to place final authority with "the counsel of their heart". Although integrity and wisdom form the primary life purpose of 27/9s, 7 is key because 27/9s have to come to trust themselves in order to access the higher principles that will guide them to integrity. Until then, all they can do is what someone else has suggested. Life provides 27/9s with many situations that repeat the same message: "Trust your heart; let your mind surrender to the wisdom of the heart". The term wisdom of the heart refers to the feeling dimension, whether we call it conscience, universal unconscious, or intuition.
Like 25/7s, 27/9s can become awareness-training addicts or spiritual vagabonds, going from one workshop, guru, or ashram to the next, looking for confirmation and guidance from teachers, guides, or others who offer guidelines for living. The more 27/9s monitor others' opinions, the more difficulty they have getting in touch with their own feeling centre. Since 7 energy tends to focus in the mind and leads 27/9s to avoid feelings that have in the past brought pain, 27/9s face a significant internal challenge before they can access and live in alignment with the laws of Spirit. One indicator that 27/9s are focused in mental processes rather than connected to their feelings occurs when they use more words than necessary to express what they want to say. When they lose touch with what they actually feel, they talk around issues and engage in social chatter, but they aren't truly self-revealing, even to themselves. Even with their outer social animation, internally most 27/9s feel more like hermits at times, or even look like them, and they definitely need their own private space. With their need for privacy, imagine how difficult 27/9 Elvis Presley's life must have been; he felt a sense of Spirit that worked through him in his own way, accounting in part for his magic to millions of people, but he let others manage his life rather than following his own heart, and this destroyed him. Errol Flynn, another charismatic 27/9, serves as a pointed example of someone who let his physical desires and impulses predominate over his heartfelt intuitions. Each figure, in his own way, lost touch with his own integrity; although exemplary in many ways, these individuals are not the best overall examples of how to live in accord with higher principles.
Most 27/9s appear self-assured and have a natural charisma associated with the leadership energy of 9s. Their sometimes forceful mental ideas and opinions overcompensate for their lack of trust. These opinions tend to become fanatical beliefs in some idea, person, or method. Because they tie their identity to their beliefs and opinions, their beliefs can become fanatical even when they start out with good intentions. The confident appearance of 27/9s masks a deeper uncertainty; they have a diffuse sense of identity and constantly strive to redefine themselves. "Quiet zealots", 27/9s sometimes mistake their opinions for God's will. Because of the 2, those 27/9s who have awakened to the higher service find meaning in providing support for and in cooperation with others. Such individuals don't need to preach, and they may not look "spiritual" at all; whatever their role or occupation in life, they teach others by example. Whether they use spiritual language is irrelevant. Leadership and inspiration by example form the keys to their life purpose; they let their hfe be their teaching. If their life is one of integrity, then no words are necessary; if it isn't, then no words can suffice. Many spiritual and religious leaders have been 27/9s, including Mahatma Gandhi, Paramahansa Yogananda, Oscar Ichazo, Da Free John, Pope John XXIII, Pope Pius XIII, Albert Schweitzer, Henry David Thoreau, Kahlil Gibran, and even Shirley MacLaine. In addition, nonreligious leaders who have inspired generations with their own unique charisma include Elvis Presley, Ray Charles, Johannes Brahms, George Burns, and Robin Williams. At the other extreme lies the danger of charismatic teachers, many of whom are themselves 27/9s, who attract groups of followers but who do not practice what they preach and excuse themselves by their higher rank or state of realization. They have their own issues to learn, as do their followers. Many 27/9s fear spirituality because of subconscious fears of getting too close to the flame (as in burnt at the stake). Whether or not they have conscious awareness of it, if they explore their psyches, most 27/9s find an inner resonance with those who were persecuted because their loyalty was to the higher laws of Spirit, not the current ruling order. The archetypes of "sin" and "repentance" reside within the consciousness of even those 27/9s who would never use such language. Whether 27/9s gravitate toward spiritual ideas or avoid them, they feel a longing for higher wisdom, to know and share the guiding principles of life, as well as a deep need for compassion and understanding from others and an ability to give back in equal measure. Those working 27/9 develop self-trust in their own good time, through direct experience, not just through learning from a wise teacher or reading books. In other words, 27/9s need to experience higher wisdom and feel this inspiration directly. They need to know and feel Spirit within themselves and others. Ultimately, no matter how well their external hfe is going, a part of them will not rest until they've realised this truth.
Working 27/9 in the Positive
These individuals exude depth and charisma based on their heartfelt trust in Spirit working through them. With their balanced, compassionate wisdom, they have also learned to trust Spirit in the form of other people and in the form of life's circumstances, which, no matter how pleasurable or difficult, they experience as teachings. Although their needs are often met, even in adversity they feel thankful for the lessons they receive. They make natural leaders who teach by example. Committed to service and expressing universal wisdom rather than rigid opinions, they help inspire others through their integrity and their attunement to higher laws. They are natural leaders who teach by example. Maintaining a feeling connection to the higher will within them, they effectively serve others.
Working 27/9 in the Negative
Deluded preachers or eternal seekers, these individuals centre their world around a particular teaching, method, religion, or philosophy. Quiet fanatics, they live according to the dictates or opinions of others and act as if their own opinions were sacred. Others who don't trust themselves may follow or admire such individuals, mistaking strong opinions for spiritual authority. Deep down, these 27/9s feel lonely and cut off from the world and from true inspiration in their lives, because they trust their mind over their heart. They fear and eventually attract betrayal by others, even by their own body.

Life-path issues
Health
Most 27/9s have a significant amount of debris floating around in their subconscious, including burdensome guilts from childhood. The 7 means 27/9s may experience a sensitivity around the heart area if they suffer from chronic, unresolved feelings of betrayal. Feelings of isolation or disconnection can lead some 27/9s to psychological disturbances, as well as to abuse of drugs or alcohol, which numbs their inner pain. The sad irony in cases of drug dependence is that 27/9s are looking to an external source to find the connection with Spirit that is already inside them. The key to diet, exercise, and every arena of health for 27/9s is clear: They need to trust their instincts, intuition, and direct experience. They have probably studied theories or research about nutrition or exercise, but they need to take ail that knowledge, check it against their own intuition system, and then act. They do well to recognise the consequences, both positive or negative, of action or inaction, of what they eat or don't eat, and of their habits of exercise. Whatever they do serves as an example to others around them. Because 27/9s focus their awareness in their head and mental processes, they have one of the least physically grounded birth numbers. Physical training not only provides standard fitness benefits for 27/9s, allowing for a balanced body and clear mind, but also helps them to stay in touch with the physically based, practical realities of daily life. The exercise that works best for 27/9s is the form they choose based on their own experience. Meditation, in whatever form they choose, gives 27/9s a chance to rest their mind and find inner peace. In that peace, their heart speaks.
Relationships
Those working 27/9 energy may have developed deep empathy and emotional depth, or they may have created an emotional persona to compensate for their mental approach to life. The key for 27/9s in relationships is letting go of mental processes and entering a dimension of feeling untroubled by the turbulence of thoughts, beliefs, and opinions. Their relationships offer the chance to experience vulnerability wherein the lessons of trust are learned. For 27/9s, relationships are important not in themselves but as a means of growth and communion; the issues that arise become grist for the mill and lessons on the path. Good sex for 27/9s is like going to confession. Sexuality for them tends to serve as a means to find harmony, connection, and communion rather than, say, just raw pleasure. They enjoy sexual relations to the degree that they can surrender to and trust their body's mindless wisdom and joy.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Because of an inherent, though not always manifested love of the outdoors, 27/9s make very good backwoods guides, for example, but they also excel at high-tech careers. Those working 27/9 are creative in terms of finding deeper wisdom. Because they like time alone, they make excellent researchers. Most 27/9s excel in service and healing-related work, in the broadest meanings of those terms. Their natural charisma, which they don't always appreciate or trust, makes them compelling dancers, actors, or artists, but their art feels more meaningful to them if connected to a higher purpose or motive of service. Stemming from their subconscious resonance with the vows of poverty taken by monks and nuns, many 27/9s feel a subtle negativity toward or mixed feelings about money and worldly success. If money is scarce in their lives, 27/9s may want to reexamine their positive and negative beliefs about money. They also benefit from exploring self-trust issues, which can hold them back in some areas of work. For 27/9s, money, like most things in life, is only a means to learn more about the workings of their own psyche. Their presence and depth pull 27/9s to leadership positions. They most often earn enough money to meet their needs and then some.

Understanding life purpose
Those on the 36/9 life path are here to work through issues of emotional honesty, perfectionist ideals, and self-doubt as they learn to live in accord with the wisdom of their heart, thereby serving as an example of integrity in their daily life. Since what we're here to do doesn't come easily, 36/9s face significant hurdles on their life path and may take years to learn to honour and value their own feelings over perfectionistic ideals or others' opinions. A major challenge is finding out what they really feel in contrast to what they think they "should" feel. Even though 36/9s share the same life purpose as other 9s, the 3 and 6 create a considerably different life path from the life paths of 18/9s, 27/9s, or 45/9s. The perfectionism of 6 influences and intensifies the innate self-doubt of these sensitive and refined individuals. Because 36/9s tend to measure themselves against ideal standards, the idea that they are here to live with the "highest integrity" may seem impossible or overwhelming, especially since 36/9s interpret this to mean "perfect integrity" rather than simply following the messages of their own heart. The 3 and 6 reinforce 36/9s' strong sensitivity to criticism, since they are already vulnerable to others' opinions. Given the idealistic standards to which they compare themselves, many 36/9s feel periodically disheartened or discouraged, sometimes giving up even before they begin. They may wear a mask of assurance, but for this confidence to stabilise, they have to balance the tendency to swing from manic overconfidence into doubt and depression by recognizing this as a challenge associated with their life path, a hurdle they are here to overcome. By applying the Law of Action, they learn to acknowledge self-doubt and then move through it.
Most 36/9s feel an unsure sense of their own center or identity; they search not only for how they feel, but for who they are. Because of the combined hurdles of self-doubt, perfectionism, and uncertain identity, 36/9s are highly prone to denning themselves and their worth in relation to others' opinions and expectations, looking for confirmation that they are behaving in the most ideal possible way or being the kind of person who gains others' approval. Those working 36/9 are here to expand their vision to see that our deepest intuitions may sometimes guide us to make "mistakes" so that we can learn important, even life-changing lessons. Difficulties due to a certain choice do not necessarily mean that the choice was wrong, that they are off course, or that they can't trust their feelings. At the same time, 36/9s do need to submit their life to a higher authority—to the wisdom based upon their heartfelt connection to spiritual laws—so that they can exemplify the integrity they were born to live. Since 36/9s aim for the ideal rather than for what is real for them, the Law of Intuition can help them reconnect with the wisest and most loving guide they can find for their own life, their inner wisdom. Once 36/9s accept themselves and others as they are, they open themselves to the central challenge of their life: the wisdom to five as an inspiring example to others. Inspiration does not require heroics or fame but rather living an ordinary life based on higher laws found in heart rather than on mental ideas or on physical impulses.
Most 36/9s eventually face situations that reflect to them the need to reconnect with their own needs and desires. As already noted, this represents a major challenge for 36/9s because of the powerful influence of perfectionism in imposing ideals over authentic feelings. Ask 36/9s how they feel and they most likely answer with their idealised image of what a “good, kind, caring, conscientious, brave, upbeat” person would or should feel. Before they can know themselves or be themselves, 36/9s have to connect with and accept how they truly feel. Then they can be honest with others because they have learned to be honest with themselves—a principle addressed by the Law of Honesty. With their highly mental pattern and perfectionism, 36/9s want to get everything just right, whether in cooking, sexual performance, or scholastic exams. They tend to be high-strung and nervous, and their health is extremely vulnerable to the state of their mind and emotions. These individuals place pressure on themselves in any group learning situation; they start out okay and then start comparing themselves with others to "see how they are doing"; usually they end up comparing themselves to one of the most skillful people in the class. Because of such comparisons and because of their own unrealistic standards, 36/9s chronically feel that they're falling short. Most 36/9s get discouraged and disheartened by their own unreachable standards and judgments, which they often imagine come from other people, until they make a critical leap and discover that they just
might be smarter, stronger, and more valuable than they had previously recognised. In making this leap, their sense of self-worth rises, and with it, their enthusiasm for life. They begin to strive toward their ideals rather than feeling like a failure for not reaching them. Until 36/9s connect with the inner wisdom that comprises both their struggle and their birthright, they can tend to be slow to learn the lessons of experience. They end up wondering how they got into their particular situation. When 36/9s make choices without considering consequences, they learn the hard way about the law of cause and effect in the real world. As they learn, they grow wiser, and over time, the seeds of deep wisdom within them start to sprout as they start to see the bigger picture of spiritual law,
Most 36/9s avoid metaphysical or spiritual ideas for a time, based on subconscious resonance with and fear of early mystics or innovative thinkers who were persecuted. As 36/9s clear away at least some of their self-doubt and perfectionism, they begin to appreciate and apply their intuitive wisdom. The world becomes a place to explore and understand; they grow curious about the laws of reality and how things work. They have the ability to seek and find essential truths, ancient secrets, and perennial wisdom. The high vision of 6 energy, the inherent depth and charisma of 9 energy, and the intuitive sensitivity of 3 energy give 36/9s an exceptional ability to understand hidden or inner wisdom. Contrast the analytical and creative genius of 31/4 Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis, with the deep archetypal discoveries of 36/9 Carl Jung, for example. Freud strongly disapproved of Jung's ideas and criticised him. Jung had to overcome extreme self-doubt and to honor his own inner wisdom despite his mentor's warnings. Those working 36/9 are here to balance their high vision and ideals with the practical realities of this world, to accept themselves and others, and to share their wisdom with family, friends, or the world at large. But most of all, they are here to align themselves with the spiritual laws revealed through the heart's intuition. The main "teaching device" of 36/9s is not their mouth, but their example. Like all 9s, they need to remember and embody the words of Mahatma Gandhi: "My life is my teaching". By living in accordance with their heart and making peace with their vision, they stand tall and step fully into the life they were born to live.

Having contacted the core of their true rather than their idealised needs, desires, and feelings, the inner senses and intuitive wisdom of these individuals are wide open. With a deep acceptance and knowledge of reality, they can see a more perfect vision of self and world, yet they have learned to appreciate both as they are now—as perfection in process. They still confront self-doubt, but they have found the courage to walk a straight line past their doubt, going where Spirit leads them. Whether their life looks conventional or unconventional, they live by higher laws and ideals and see the depths and higher possibilities of life. They connect to this world through service as they express the eternal wisdom they have contacted.
Working 36/9 in the Negative
These individuals live to please others. Their expression is blocked as they allow themselves to be defined by others' opinions. Judgmental about themselves and others, they are quick to spot imperfections but feel hypersensitive to any criticism. High-strung, nervous, and hindered by self-doubt, they play it safe, sticking with the conventional, the routine, and the familiar, since new territory would bring the risk of failure, which would only add to their disappointment in self and world. Reality never seems to meet their expectations or hopes.
Most 36/9s feel an unsure sense of their own center or identity; they search not only for how they feel, but for who they are. Because of the combined hurdles of self-doubt, perfectionism, and uncertain identity, 36/9s are highly prone to denning themselves and their worth in relation to others' opinions and expectations, looking for confirmation that they are behaving in the most ideal possible way or being the kind of person who gains others' approval. Those working 36/9 are here to expand their vision to see that our deepest intuitions may sometimes guide us to make "mistakes" so that we can learn important, even life-changing lessons. Difficulties due to a certain choice do not necessarily mean that the choice was wrong, that they are off course, or that they can't trust their feelings. At the same time, 36/9s do need to submit their life to a higher authority—to the wisdom based upon their heartfelt connection to spiritual laws—so that they can exemplify the integrity they were born to live. Since 36/9s aim for the ideal rather than for what is real for them, the Law of Intuition can help them reconnect with the wisest and most loving guide they can find for their own life, their inner wisdom. Once 36/9s accept themselves and others as they are, they open themselves to the central challenge of their life: the wisdom to five as an inspiring example to others. Inspiration does not require heroics or fame but rather living an ordinary life based on higher laws found in heart rather than on mental ideas or on physical impulses.
Most 36/9s eventually face situations that reflect to them the need to reconnect with their own needs and desires. As already noted, this represents a major challenge for 36/9s because of the powerful influence of perfectionism in imposing ideals over authentic feelings. Ask 36/9s how they feel and they most likely answer with their idealised image of what a “good, kind, caring, conscientious, brave, upbeat” person would or should feel. Before they can know themselves or be themselves, 36/9s have to connect with and accept how they truly feel. Then they can be honest with others because they have learned to be honest with themselves—a principle addressed by the Law of Honesty. With their highly mental pattern and perfectionism, 36/9s want to get everything just right, whether in cooking, sexual performance, or scholastic exams. They tend to be high-strung and nervous, and their health is extremely vulnerable to the state of their mind and emotions. These individuals place pressure on themselves in any group learning situation; they start out okay and then start comparing themselves with others to "see how they are doing"; usually they end up comparing themselves to one of the most skillful people in the class. Because of such comparisons and because of their own unrealistic standards, 36/9s chronically feel that they're falling short. Most 36/9s get discouraged and disheartened by their own unreachable standards and judgments, which they often imagine come from other people, until they make a critical leap and discover that they just
might be smarter, stronger, and more valuable than they had previously recognised. In making this leap, their sense of self-worth rises, and with it, their enthusiasm for life. They begin to strive toward their ideals rather than feeling like a failure for not reaching them. Until 36/9s connect with the inner wisdom that comprises both their struggle and their birthright, they can tend to be slow to learn the lessons of experience. They end up wondering how they got into their particular situation. When 36/9s make choices without considering consequences, they learn the hard way about the law of cause and effect in the real world. As they learn, they grow wiser, and over time, the seeds of deep wisdom within them start to sprout as they start to see the bigger picture of spiritual law,
Most 36/9s avoid metaphysical or spiritual ideas for a time, based on subconscious resonance with and fear of early mystics or innovative thinkers who were persecuted. As 36/9s clear away at least some of their self-doubt and perfectionism, they begin to appreciate and apply their intuitive wisdom. The world becomes a place to explore and understand; they grow curious about the laws of reality and how things work. They have the ability to seek and find essential truths, ancient secrets, and perennial wisdom. The high vision of 6 energy, the inherent depth and charisma of 9 energy, and the intuitive sensitivity of 3 energy give 36/9s an exceptional ability to understand hidden or inner wisdom. Contrast the analytical and creative genius of 31/4 Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis, with the deep archetypal discoveries of 36/9 Carl Jung, for example. Freud strongly disapproved of Jung's ideas and criticised him. Jung had to overcome extreme self-doubt and to honor his own inner wisdom despite his mentor's warnings. Those working 36/9 are here to balance their high vision and ideals with the practical realities of this world, to accept themselves and others, and to share their wisdom with family, friends, or the world at large. But most of all, they are here to align themselves with the spiritual laws revealed through the heart's intuition. The main "teaching device" of 36/9s is not their mouth, but their example. Like all 9s, they need to remember and embody the words of Mahatma Gandhi: "My life is my teaching". By living in accordance with their heart and making peace with their vision, they stand tall and step fully into the life they were born to live.

Life-path issues
Health
No matter what their features, the refined energy field of most 36/9s gives them an attractive appearance that people sense rather than see with physical eyes. Cameras, however, pick up on energy fields, so 36/9s tend to “take good pictures”, as the example of 36/9 Brigitte Bardot can attest. Combining the sensitivity of 3 energy with the high ideals of 6 energy, 36/9s can get discouraged or depressed easily when they or others don't meet their expectations. Chronic depression can compromise their immune system and open the way for colds, stress headaches, or other depressive symptoms. If working in the negative, 36/9s tend to be high-strung; sensitive areas include the nervous system, the sexual area, and the abdomen. They are also prone to sore throats or chronic jaw tension if they withhold their feelings. If 36/9s eat food not well suited to their constitution, they are likely to experience digestive symptoms, skin eruptions, or other feedback; over time, they learn to align their diet with their expanding knowledge of what is optimal for them. Nutrition offers 36/9s a fundamental avenue for living by example; they learn what happens when they eat or drink what isn't good for them. As 36/9s learn to follow their own instincts, they are likely to gravitate toward a fresh, varied diet and, over time, eat more of what is good for them and less of what doesn't serve their health and vitality.
All 36/9s benefit from a daily exercise routine, whether a brisk walk, strength exercises, or more sophisticated training. Their physical body needs movement, stretching, and deep breathing each day to relieve tension and stay in balance. The kind of exercise they practice is less important than making sure they do it regularly—a few minutes a day is better than none at alt. As in other areas of life, 36/9s can ask themselves whether their exercise habits serve as an example for others. Just seeing someone exercising every day inspires some people. All 36/9s need to avoid making idealistic resolutions or schemes they don't carry out or buying equipment they've never used before. Better to start modestly and give themselves a feeling of success and ease; the principle. “A little bit of something is better than a lot of nothing” applies strongly here. Most of all, 36/9s need to exercise patience and experiment with what works best for them; in this way, they learn by experience, and then they can share their life wisdom with others.
Relationships
Feeling internal pressure to be "good" and "improve" and "do right", 36/9s have a nervous hyperactivity and may experience trouble sitting still unless they're tired. They are anxious to please others, and their ideas often go straight from their mind to their mouth as they speak rapidly to keep tip with the thoughts that pour forth. This trait affects their relationships, since people sometimes feel uncomfortable around their high-strung energy and sensitivity. When they stay in touch with their feelings, fewer words are necessary. A major relationship issue for 36/9s involves ideals that block authentic feelings. Because of this, they have a difficult time expressing themselves honestly. Relationships provide a superb opportunity for growth in this area. The relationships of 36/9s, based on lofty standards, can pose a burden for those with whom they live. But once 36/9s get past judgments about themselves and others, they open up to relaxed and accepting relationships. The sexual relationships of 36/9s reflect the issues of their life path—self-doubt, perfectionism with an emphasis on performance, and, for some, issues of "morality". The more they work their life path in the positive, the more loving, intimate, and pleasurable their sex life becomes.
Talents, Work, and Finances
Those working 36/9 sometimes live what appears to be a very conventional life and may avoid spiritual or metaphysical ideas due to subconscious fears or self-doubt. Beneath their sometimes conventional appearance lies an ocean of intuitive spiritual wisdom. Even though it might be the farthest thing from their mind, at some point they develop an interest in the deeper aspects of life, even if this doesn't show on the surface. Many, in their own way, bring fresh insights, perspectives, and information into the world, as Carl Jung's life demonstrates. These 36/9s can understand anything and teach it. For example, if they choose to practice bodywork as a profession, their practice leads them to new methods and approaches to get better, deeper results. Many fields, such as acting, teaching, bodywork, writing, psychotherapy, or business, to name a few, can utilize the charisma, high standards, and expressive energy of 36/9s. Their innate but often hidden wisdom will lead them, despite their own issues and doubts, to making a good living. Their financial problems do not arise from having too little, but from wanting more than they have in order to meet their ideals.

5: Freedom and Discipline
4: Stability and Process
Understanding life purpose
Those on the 45/9 life path are here to work through issues of stability, independence, and integrity as they learn to apply a process of discipline over time to experience freedom, and to align their life with higher principles and heartfelt wisdom. Because our life purpose holds special challenges, those working 45/9 may face dramatic life tests to get their attention, help them overcome their negative tendencies, and bring them to maturity. Life will provide a curriculum that teaches 45/9s the discipline and focus that lead to inner and outer freedom, and the necessity of following a stable step-by-step process to reach their goals. Above all, these individuals get clear feedback about the wisdom of living in alignment with the laws of Spirit. Physically strong and mentally quick, with a desire for adventure and excitement, 45/9s often deal with life-and-death issues. Depending upon how positively they work their energies, these individuals may have to pass through disillusion and difficulty to reach compassion and wisdom. During their lifetime, most 45/9s experience both the up side and the underbelly of life. The central life challenge for 45/9s entails moving attention from their busy, visual mind to their peaceful inner core, where they can contact their deep intuitive wisdom. At this place of wisdom, all spiritual
laws are revealed through the feeling dimension in the moment they need them. When 45/9s have made contact with their inner knower, they can ask an internal question, feel their heart, and know. Even when 45/9s have access to higher laws, they still face the challenge of putting their knowledge into action, thus fulfilling their destiny. Integrity does not come easily for any 9s because our life purpose holds our greatest challenge. Those working 45/9 also face challenges stemming from the issues of 4, such as stability and process and the issues of 5, such as freedom and discipline. The energies of 4 and 5 need to come to maturity or they continue to pull 45/9s out of alignment with higher laws—out of integrity. Although most 45/9s aren't necessarily oriented toward inner processing, much happens in their external world that propels them to deeper understanding. Their life may look dramatic at times, but for the most part, they are best served by "chopping wood and carrying water", as the Zen masters practice. They may desire extraordinary experiences and quick results, but they are here to learn about being ordinary, direct, and stable; for them, achievement happens only through a gradual step-by-step process.
Those working 45/9 tend to adore the drama and excitement of heroics, but they are here to lead, teach, or inspire others in everyday ways; for example, most of us "know" how to eat well and the importance of daily exercise, but we sometimes find it difficult to act on what we know. Those working 45/9 energy are here to inspire people by acting on what they know in everyday life even if that entails a long gradual process. Before 45/9s can fully exemplify higher laws in everyday life, they have to confront issues related to the energies of 4 and 5. The 4 calls for grounding and putting down roots, while 5 calls for mobility and exploring options. These energies can either conflict with each other, pulling in opposite directions, or, when integrated, balance and complement each other. In the positive, 4 brings stability, security, and a willingness to follow a clear process toward a goal; in the negative, 4 leads to confusion and instability. An individual working 4 in the negative wants everything now or gets frozen on one step of the process. Also associated with 4 is a tendency toward tunnel vision, so 45/9s may end up repeating some tough lessons, such as divorce or health problems or financial crises, until life makes its point. Less sensitive to other people's opinions than 27/9s or 36/9s, those working 45/9 nevertheless have a tenuous sense of identity and often define themselves in terms of the roles they play. Most 4s want to be somebody without going through a process of becoming, of mastering the necessary preparation. The Law of Process serves them well, in addition to the reminder that we are more than the roles we play. In the positive, 5 energy leads 45/9s to feel a constant sense of inner freedom, no matter what the circumstances, with the discipline and focus to generate mobility and a sense of outer freedom as well. In the negative, 5 can make 45/9s feel trapped, a prisoner of circumstance, too scattered to make any significant headway in life. As 45/9s bring the stable energies of 4 into maturity, they enjoy the fruits of a clear analytical ability, strength, sociability, diligence, and a mastery of process. When 45/9s bring the dynamic energies of 5 into maturity, they enjoy the fruits of adventurous qualities, a quick mind, versatility, and authority.
Many 45/9s need to get grounded and stay put long enough to harvest the fruits of their labors. They may want to travel and just "touch down" in different locations, getting a valuable overview of life but missing the depth that brings wisdom. Eventually they realize that the real work, adventure, and treasure lies here, now, within. The Law of Discipline addresses potential tendencies of 45/9s to feel scattered and diffuse their efforts. The combined energies of 5 and 9 create drives that send 45/9s seeking inner freedom, not mere independence or self-indulgence, due to their intuitive if sometimes unconscious connection to higher laws. No matter what they do, no matter how intelligent, wealthy, successful, or attractive they are, 45/9s do not find peace or freedom until they contact higher laws, experience them, and five them. The combination of 4 and 9 creates drives that send 45/9s seeking inner stability, not merely staying put in one location, but feeling like the Rock of Gibraltar inside. Those 45/9s who have achieved this balance demonstrate sterling qualities, such as loyalty, responsibility, and strength. Those working 45/9 are here for more than understanding; they come for wisdom, which emerges as they begin to live what they understand; then 45/9s can teach others through their example, without words. Whether stable and practical or ungrounded dreamers, 45/9s aspire at levels deeper than their conscious awareness to the wisdom or experience that sets them free. Intentionally or not, 45/9s draw to themselves demands and disciplines as a means to discover and embody higher wisdom.
Working 45/9 in the Positive
These individuals provide an inspiring example of how to follow a careful, disciplined process to reach goals and achieve a sense of inner freedom. Strong, witty, and charismatic, they attract many friends, admirers, and students; whether or not they call themselves teachers, they teach by example, demonstrating true wisdom and inner freedom. Bound by no conventional rules but aligned with higher laws, their life may appear ordinary from the outside, but their influence, even in the midst of ordinary activities, has an extraordinary quality that inspires others around them.
Working 45/9 in the Negative
These individuals display strength and cleverness, but they don't know what to do with either. Scattered, undisciplined, disoriented, and sometimes overwhelmed by a sense that they are missing something important, they hide behind the roles they play, seeking security there. They don't live what they profess, deceiving themselves as well as others. Ungrounded and irresponsible, they may feel "free" and "liberated", but they never really challenge or test their own views. Because of this, they face hard lessons about reality.

Life-path issues
Health
The health of 45/9s depends almost entirely on whether they are working their life issues in the positive or negative. In the negative, they may have to deal with broken bones, head injuries, or illnesses that affect the brain or nervous system. In the positive, they enjoy robust health. Stubborn 45/9s encounter conditions that force them to reassess their life and make a careful, step-by-step process of recovery. The foundation of their sense of stability and freedom depends upon a strong, healthy body. Because of hurdles associated with 9 energy, 45/9s may ignore the necessity of sound nutrition and exercise and suffer the consequences. Sooner or later, 45/9s start the process of adapting themselves to a healthier lifestyle. The challenge is great; most 45/9s prefer heroic efforts to long, drawn-out processes. In due time, as a matter of course, 45/9s begin to align their diet and exercise routines as simple, everyday disciplines. However, depending upon their lifestyle and background, they may prefer varied, exciting, or challenging exercises, such as martial arts, water sports, and mountain climbing.
Relationships
Depending on their life experience and whether they are working in the positive or the negative,45/9s may lack sensitivity and compassion or they may have cultivated these qualities through facing their own difficulties. Their relationships and emotional lives are wild cards, however, because of the drive toward stability and family issues of 4 along with the drive toward independence of 5. Most 45/9s, in any case, learn much from their relationship and their family of origin. In family relationships, most 45/9s meet with specific issues, such as leaving home early due to an independent streak or staying at home too long due to dependent tendencies. Most have issues to work out with parents or siblings. In any case, 45/9s are likely to experience their circle of friends or the world at large as extended family. Part of the emotional maturation of 45/9s entails accepting their feelings and following a process to develop deeper, more intimate relationships. Relationship may well form a key part of the foundation from which they can realize a higher and deeper freedom. Since 45/9s gravitate to new ways of being, living, and doing as they search for the larger picture of life, it's unlikely for them to form totally conventional relationships, although they need to form responsible ones. Beyond biological drives, 45/9s desire sexual relationships that have an element of adventure or variety, although they also seek a deeper sense of connection. Sexuality can become a joyous part of 45/9s' life if practiced not for its own sake but within the perspective of higher wisdom.
Talents, Work, and Finances
