WHAT'S IN A NAME?
Here is some information you might find interesting about your name. To begin, each part of your name tells of three different levels of information present within your name.
For Example:
- Your first name tells of your physical conditions and mental acuity. It gives you your most personal lessons.
- Your middle or second name tells of the emotional aspect of your life. It reveals hidden abilities that you don't necessarily like.
- Your last name tells of your spiritual consciousness. It tells of the characteristics you have inherited from your family. Married ladies, what have you inherited from your husband's family?
FIRST LETTER AND FIRST VOWEL:
The First Letter and the First Vowel of the name describe the natural or innate approach, the method of response and reaction to the life experience. This is a natural tendency. If you are not happy with this tendency, with an effort of the will, the approach can be shifted. Some numerologists define the First Letter (or Cornerstone) as the approach to material experience, the First Vowel as the approach to spiritual or non-material experience. Actually, the Vowel predominates, supplying 60% of the direction while the letter supplies 40%. Picking a name for your child is very important.
Check this out! Here are some interesting generalizations about the letters:
THE FIRST LETTER:
The traits described are often symbolized in the letter itself. H, M rest solidly on two legs, denote awareness of the material world.(A, a vowel, rests on a similar base, soars upwards to symbolize originality and creativity.) B, D (and O, a vowel) are enclosed, self-protected, retiring. E, C are open-ended, spontaneous, adventurous. Y has two arms, two directions, a sense of uncertainty, vacillation.
THE FIRST VOWEL:
The following is how it breaks down: A stresses LEADERSHIP, individuality, creativity. E stresses ADVENTURE, activity, change. I stresses HUMANITARIANISM, creativity, deep emotions O stresses HARMONIZATION, responsibility, self-containment, concealed feelings. U stresses SENSITIVITY, intuition. W stresses VACILLATION. Y stresses THOUGHT, analysis, introspection, vacillation, intuition.
Now what does it mean to you and your name according to Numerology?
For Example: MICHAEL
The M's traits: Hard worker, self-disciplinedSerious, steady, thoroughControlled approach. Often limited viewpoint. Usually accepts the given limits instead of expanding the potential. Repressed feelings may make you difficult to deal with and hard to get to know. Organizational ability. Well developed approach to material, practical affairs. Does mundane work efficiently. Works steadily, efficiently to complete a project.
The I's traits: Humanitarian, giving, serves others with love. Sympathetic, deep emotional understanding of other's needs. Sensitive, often too sensitive for good balance. Willing to sacrifice for others. At times, may be disappointed with other's response or lack of appreciation. Idealistic, artistic, creative, very intense, much energy, conservative, prefers to work in familiar territory.
In Numerology there is something called a Growth Number which is the total of the letters of your first name. This number is an energy boost that you will experience throughout life when it is most needed. Michael hapens to be a master number and very rare energy. It is a '6' energy which is about a love of and deep responsibility for family and close circle of friends. By using Mike the energy changes to '2' which is again a loving energy but is more centered or focused on being the peacemaker or arbitrator. The '2' is all about finding the balance in all things. The '33' Master Number of Michael is the 'Teacher of Teachers'.
TAKE EACH LETTER OF THE NAME, FIND THE NUMERIC VALUE, ADD ACROSS AND REDUCE DOWN TO A SINGLE DIGIT (EXCEPT FOR MASTER NUMBERS 11,22, & 33) In our example, MICHAEL, the numeric values are 4 + 9 + 3 + 8 + 1 + 5 + 3=33 (which is a rare and wonderful Master Number with the underlying 6 energy).
Perhaps you are beginning to see that by changing the name you use every day the energy changes. Picking or choosing a name to use most often today or for your child is really important!
