We all have a birth date.

Our Strengths and Shadows

We are all born with a blueprint for our lives.  It provides an insight into our strengths and shadows.  Our family history provides a genetic blueprint, our birth chart (astrology) and numbers in our birth date and name (numerology) provide a body, mind and soul blueprint.

Astrology

Your star sign (more accurately known as your sun sign) is the sign of the zodiac the Sun was moving through at your birth.  It represents your essential self. There are 12 signs:

Sign Birth Dates Element (Seeking to Understand) Strengths Aries March 21 – April 20 Fire - energetic(Compassion) Intellectual Thought - Dynamic Taurus April 21 – May 20 Earth - dependable (Service) Intellectual Thought – Steady Gemini May 21 – June 20 Air - versatile (We are All One) Intellectual Thought – Sensitive Cancer June 21 – July 21 Water - peaceful (Peace) Intellectual Thought – Protective Leo July 22 – August 22 Fire - energetic (Compassion) Emotions – Leadership Virgo August 23 – September 22 Earth - dependable(Service) Emotions – Perfectionist Libra September 23 – October 22 Air - versatile (We are All One) Emotions – Balance Scorpio October 23 – November 22 Water - peaceful (Peace) Emotions – Sex and Healing Sagittarius November 23 – December 22 Fire - energetic (Compassion) Practical - Gregarious Capricorn December 23 – January 21 Earth - dependable(Service) Practical - Cautious Aquarius January 22 – February 20 Air - versatile (We are All One) Practical – Knowledge Pisces February 21 – March 20 Water - peaceful (Peace) Practical - Peacemakers

Numerology

Works very similarly to astrology only it uses the numbers in your birthday (and your name) to also provide you with detailed information on your inherent strengths and shadows. For example: birth date of: 05/03/1987 is laid out in the chart like this:

3   9   5 8 1   7

Briefly:
The layout of the birth date numbers shows where the strengths lie and where weaknesses lie. Ideally, in the boxes of 1 and 2, there are doubles of these numbers, in all other boxes just one number.  This represents balance expression of the particular number.  No number points to areas that need to be developed during the person’s life.

0 = spirituality; 1 = self expression and ego; 2 = intuition and our need to be part of a pair, 3 = memory and trinity; 4 = order/ method/ organisation and the square of practicality; 5 = love and freedom of expression; 6 = creativity and integration of left and right brain; 7 = learning through experience and the symbol of healing/temple/chakras; 8 = wisdom and independence; 9 = ambition (body), responsibility (mind), idealism (soul); 10 = unity of the self and the Divine; 11 = spirituality; 12 = power; 22 = master number, all things are possible..

The chart also reveals places where there are numbers (strengths) in a row, column or on a diagonal; or spaces (weaknesses) in a row, column or on a diagonal. These are known as Arrows of Individuality - unique characteristics of the individual. There are eight strengths and eight weaknesses.  And some charts have neither, which point to needing perseverance to build their strengths.

By adding together the birth date (05/03/1987 = 33 = 6) until it is reduced to a single digit (except in the case of 11 and 22) we arrive at the Ruling Number: our life purpose.

Our actual birth day (in this case the 5th), provides our Day Number: the way in which we express ourselves to the world - physically, mentally and emotionally.
