Body language

Alternatively, it could indicate a move toward making or saving money, or, signify a lack of abundance due to lack of movement. On the other hand, wearing green may be a subconscious desire to attract abundance.

Have fun with analyzing your choice of color. As you become adept you will attain an understanding of yours and others motivations. Gradually your individual experience will color your interpretations.

How Numbers Can Indicate Your Year Ahead

The History of Numerology
Numerology is the ancient science of numbers and letters used by mystics through the ages to access anything from the personality of a person to finding a lost object. Evidence of numerology dates back thousands of years to China, India, Egypt, and Babylonia. Pythagoras, the first philosopher and mathematician of ancient Greece, created his own system of numerology over two thousand years ago and is known by numerologists as the father of numerology.

Lucky Numbers
In numerology some numbers have a reputation of being either lucky or unlucky. The number seven for instance is thought to contain magical powers. Seven combines the masculine digit four with the feminine three. Consequently it was revered as the number of creation. This union is seen as a transgression in the “seven deadly sins.” Another lucky emblem the four-leafed clover was originally a symbol of the triple goddess. The Three Brigit’s or mother-hearts lost favor to the masculine four-leafed clover, which was thought to be uncommon and therefore more glamorous. In numerology seven is the number of Neptune, a mystical planet shrouded in mystery. In the tarot seven is the number of “The Chariot,” symbolizing movement and change - just as it is in this numerology.

Unlucky For Some
Before the number thirteen became unlucky it figured highly in ancient society and in numerology is a powerful number. The calendar used to be based on the thirteen lunar cycles in a year, every twenty-eight days, not unlike a woman’s menstrual cycle. In fact Chinese women established a lunar calendar 3000 years ago, where the moon passed through 28 stellar mansions. Romans called the calculation of time “knowledge of the menses.” The Gaelic word for calendar and menstruation is the same. Unfortunately, any number or condition associated with women became “unlucky” during the 500-year purge on women known as the inquisition. Well, times have changed!

Numerology Growth Cycles
Many people use astrology to understand and prepare for the challenges and opportunities they will face during their lifetime. Numerology is another tool to access the mysteries of life. Numerology is similar to astrology in that it uses ones birthday to calculate the personality, challenges and soul growth of an individual. However, numerology is much simpler as it does not require knowledge of the stars or of complicated mathematical calculations. The numerology system used here is designed to ascertain probable events and influences during each year of ones life, based on the day and month of an individual’s birth. Added to the year in question the resulting calculation is known in numerology as your “numerology progression.”
