The Life Path

Your Life Path Number is your single most important number. It is found in your Birthdate. While you should consider all of your numbers, your Life Path Number represents the key to your whole chart. It is considered your 'Lucky Number'. Whether you can use its power easily depends on your supporting numbers. Following the direction of the Life Path makes life easier; ignoring it makes it hard. It shows your direction in life; the main opportunities you attract; your talents and characteristic.

You will usually recognize the direction of this path. At times you may resist following it and refuse its opportunities. This is often the case if your Birthday Number is a different number. When this occurs, you can face 'problems' until you get your life back on track. Your friends may even recognize your birthday characteristics is 'more like you', but this impression is untrue.

To find your Life Path Number add all the numbers in you Birthdate together, continue to add the total together until only one digit is left.

The Birthchart

The Life Path Number is always your most important number, but the characteristics it represents will be affected by all the numbers in your Birthdate. These numbers: your Birth day, your Birth month and your year of Birth, will strengthen or weaken the effect of your Life Path Number; this is why two people with the same Life Path Number can be so different. We see this effect on the Birthchart.

The Birthchart shows where each number is placed. Insert all your birthdate numbers in their appropriate squares. A zero in the Birthdate is ignored. No matter how often the same number occurs in your Birthdate, it goes into the same square.

To find your Life Path Number add all the numbers in you Birthdate together, continue to add the total together until only one digit is left.

3 6 9
2 5 8
1 4 7


Everyone born before 2000AD will often have the number One on their Birthchart; everyone born in the new Millennium will all have a Two. These numbers represent the changing consciousness of the human race. As a generalization, babies born after 1.1.2000, and babies born on or before 31.12.1999, will differ fundamentally in their approach to life. The changing dates highlight the changing consciousness. It is easy to see how the Birthchart can alter the effect of the Life Path Number. Here is a chart for someone born on thr 24. 2. 2000. He or She has a Life Path Number of One.

This Birthdate considerably softens the leadership qualities of the One Life Path. The Life Path would still be the most important number, but the cooperating influence of the three Two's would always be apparent. The amount of numbers in each square and the missing numbers on the chart are always considered alongside the influence of the Life Path Number. You may find the listed negative characteristics do not apply, but earlier they did. This shows that you have grown and developed.

MISSING 5: Determination and the ability to push themselves is often absent. They need motivation from an outside source. There is uncertainty of which direction to take. They are aware of many opportunities but do not know how to use them. They benefit from a partner who will push them into action; or a name that provides help.

THREE or more 7's: This is sometimes seen as a sacrificial arrangement of numbers. Setbacks can be encountered. A great deal of inner knowledge is contained here, and though they make it hard for themselves - sometimes by their own actions - they philosophically accept results and try again.

The tendency is to become materially greedy, but if this is kept in check. A well-balanced person emerges with very good assessment of others. This can be used to advantage. Often restlessness occurs.

MISSING 8: Organization is needed. Detailed work will be avoided. Laziness or carelessness with money can be apparent. Attention to mundane tasks is needed if all that is gained is not to be lost.


NINE'S BIRTHCHART:


ONE 9: Idealism, an awareness of the world and its people as interrelated, is shown here. During the final hundred years before 2000AD, the Nine is on everyone's Birthchart. It signifies a subconscious awareness of the potential effects of human achievement. It has promoted a more tolerant attitude to grow as the century has aged.
Negatively: it has promoted aggression and war.

TWO 9's: Mental activity is strong. There is domestic and creative potential with these numbers. It is important to keep emotionalism in check. While the desire to help humanity is felt, it is important to be aware of what is achievable in a practical sense.

THREE or more 9's: These numbers show a powerful intellect. A revolutionary nervous may be felt to right wrong or find better ways of living. These people are not good judges of character and must beware of exploitation. This is a charismatic and explosive combination.

MISSING 9: They dynamism of the Nine will be missing from the Birthchart from the year 2000. While human achievements may not be so marked, the peace and cooperation of the Two will compensate. Without Nine, a broader view of life will need to be developed and awareness of what can ultimately be achieved.

The Lines On The Birthchart

A series of three numbers on your Birthchart strengthens your character in some way, depending on what the numbers are. These numbers are called Full Number Planes, Arrows of Pythagoras, or Lines. These ordered numbers can be vertical: 123, 456, 789, horizontal: 259, 368, 147, or diagonal, 159,357. It does not matter how many numbers are in each square as long as all three squares have at least one number in them. You may have more than one line. It is possible to have all five (e.g. Born 25.3.1978).

Three or more Birthchart Lines show a strong personality with the possibility of easy achievement. It does not show the attainment of materiel success nor spiritual fulfillment. In theory, these should both be easier to gain with three or more Lines. In practice, people with no number Lines, or many numbers missing, achieve a great deal. From early life, they are more aware of what need to be done.

---- ---- 99
2 5 ----

Three successive missing numbers on your Birthchart, highlights a weakness, an area that needs to be strengthened. The Birthchart of this birthdate, 30.7.1818, shows she has one Line of missing numbers: 456. This is the Line of frustration.

3 ---- ----
