The Power and Limitations of Numerology
Numerology is an art thousands of years in the making. Like any Metaphysical science, it hinges on the understanding that all things are interconnected. Your numerology profile analyzes the connection between the letters and numbers linked to you, revealing your talents, strengths, weaknesses, emotions, preferences, and a range of other qualities.
To use an analogy, think of numerology's nine single-digit numbers as nine tubes of paint, each a distinctly different color. Imagine you are a work of art painted by a master artist who used every color available to create your image. The depiction is unique and complex: a fusion of bright and subdued colors, shapes and shadows, light and reflection, subtle and bold textures. The deeper you look, the more you perceive and appreciate the many layers that makeup who you are.
A comprehensive numerology profile, along with your honest reflection, can be a powerful self-help tool in identifying underlying traits and new possibilities. The better you know yourself, the more control you have over life's changes and the greater your potential for a successful, fulfilled life. Numerology is not infallible, nor does it promise to answer every question, but I feel confident you will find many things to contemplate in the following pages.
You are unique, and so is your Profile. We hope you enjoy your reading.
Your Personality Profile
Your Profile begins with insight gleaned from your name because that is where we learn WHO you are. It describes the talents, strengths, and other distinct characteristics you were born with. Just as your physical body grows and changes with time, so does your personality. Your personal evolution begins at the moment of your birth. From that point on, the choices you make, the goals you set, your environment, opportunities, challenges, the influence of others, and a thousand other factors alter who you become.
Your Personality Profile begins with an overview of the combined influence of the core numbers derived from your name: your Expression, Heart's Desire, and Personality. This has never been done before.
I hope you will take time to read and reflect on the information below. Many aspects become clearer with time and during subsequent readings. I wish you the best on your journey.

Your Personality Profile is based on your full name at birth, your current name, and your date of birth. Your full name tells us who you are; think of it as your numerology-DNA. Your date of birth reveals your path and the patterns of your personal growth.
We start this report by looking at the most important numbers derived from your full name to throw light on who you are as a person.
Testscudrent, we begin by taking a quick snapshot, a look at the influence and meaning of the three core numbers derived from your name. Your Expression number is the sum of the value of all the letters in your full name at birth. Your Heart's Desire is the sum of the vowels. Your Personality number is the sum of the consonants. These three numbers are closely linked and influence one another.
All the numbers derived from your name reflect YOU. They are a blueprint of your talents, shortcomings, character traits, and other qualities. You should realize that this is a limited perspective. Later chapters focus on the challenges and opportunities you will encounter on your path, and attributes you may acquire as time passes.
This first chapter is like a glance from a distance, followed by three chapters that explain the meaning of each number in more detail. We will gradually build a more complete picture of the complex and unique individual you are.
Your Core Name Numbers are 1, 3, 7
Your core numbers show a mixture of the superficial, easy-going attitude of your 3 Heart's Desire, and a decidedly philosophical/spiritual 7 Personality. Even with the driven, ambitious 1 Expression, this 3 and 7 combination may challenge you to maintain focus and direction; your attention likely wanders when something new attracts your attention.
The different aspects of your personality can also unsettle people when they first meet you. You may switch from introvert to extrovert, from deep thinker to light-hearted joker, from serious to sunny - and often without warning. Your sense of humor is offbeat too.
Your 3 Heart's Desire is about imagination and a desire to express it. You probably spend quite a bit of time daydreaming. This contrasts with your 7 Personality, which thrives on pure intellect and the search for the obscure and hidden side of life. The combination of the 3 and 7 suggests you might mature slowly (due to your inquisitive and creative nature) but you will gather impressive insights along the way. Your attempts to understand the intangible realm may cause you to ask awkward questions. As you reach adulthood, you will likely question the status quo and express unconventional views.
Your 1 Expression number will likely push you to freelance or become an entrepreneur. Your challenge is finding an outlet for your uncommon range of talents, the result of the vastly different 3 and 7 in your core-name numbers. You are better suited to work for yourself than for others, due to your unconventional way of thinking and your individualism. Additionally, your opinionated, sometimes confrontational approach could get in the way of being an effective team player.
Similarly, in your personal life, you could find yourself a bit of an outsider, even within your own family and community. You will likely partner with a person who stands out in some way, and doesn't always fit in.
Now let's look at each of your core numbers individually.
Your Expression number, calculated from your full name at birth, reveals the orientation or goal of your life. Some numerologists refer to this as your Destiny number because it represents a lifelong target at which you are aiming. Thus, the Expression number, to some extent, reveals the person you aim to be.
Your Expression is the most influential of the three characteristics that make up who you are. It is also the number with the most influence on your choice of career, although other aspects are important as well.
Your Expression is 46/10/1

You are a natural leader, independent and individualistic. You are extremely ambitious, original, and courageous. You employ new and unproven methods. You are an explorer and an innovator. Openness to too many peripheral influences limits and frustrates you. You are self-reliant, confident, and energetic. You easily assume the role of protector. You spring into action when leadership is needed.
You possess executive abilities and are most successful at owning or independently managing a business. You need the freedom to make your decisions, based on your ideas. You can be an astute politician. You also possess the ability to influence the opinions of your milieu.
The number 1 symbolizes the front-runner, pioneer, warrior, risk-taker, and daredevil. Generals, top politicians, successful businessmen, self-made millionaires, religious leaders, inventors, activists, and avant-garde artists are often born with a 1 Expression.
Strength and perseverance are central to your success. You must be willing to travel the frontiers of life, away from the beaten path. You possess a great reserve of willpower that must be directed at your goals. You do not give up, but relentlessly pursue your aims.
You are quite opinionated. People tend to be inspired or repelled by your strong personality. You have great powers of concentration and the ability to visualize your goals, thus making them more attainable. You stand up for your convictions and hold your ground. All of these abilities enhance your chances of success in life.
There is a tendency to be self-centered. You can be domineering and, in the extreme, a bully. You can be highly critical of others, complaining that people lack the industry or determination you possess. But this lack of understanding can alienate friends and family members from you. You must learn to control this tendency to maintain harmony in relationships. Once you are convinced of the inherent correctness of your ideas, you stubbornly -- and sometimes rigidly -- defend and propagate them. Avoid obstinacy and antagonism. You must cultivate balance, compassion, and perseverance.
Pride can be your downfall. You so powerfully identify with your goals and ambitions, you sometimes refuse to see a potential flaw or weakness in your well-laid plans.
You possess strength and determination, which, when applied to any endeavor you are committed to, will lead you to great success in life.
The Expression number described above points to a more productive side of your life. Your Heart's Desire reflects a deeper, inner you; it suggests an underlying urge, your true motivation, and the general intention behind many of your actions. It reveals the environment and lifestyle you prefer, as well as your likes, dislikes, and the type of people you are drawn to. Consequently, it dramatically influences the choices you make in life.
It makes sense that the vowels of your name are the foundation for your Heart's Desire. Vowels are the peaks and valleys of a language. Notice how vowels leave your mouth in a free-flowing breath. Try it: Aaaa.... Eeee.... Oooo.. Consonants though, are cut off either at the beginning or in the end.
You might say that it is in the flow of your breath that you express your deeper self.
Your Heart's Desire number is 3

You love a good time. You are generally happy, friendly, and outgoing. You have a gift for gab. You are very witty, creative, and playful. You inspire and entertain people. You are considered by many a great companion. Many outstanding comedians have this Heart's Desire. You have a good mental and emotional balance and there is little that gets you down.
You have a gift for self-expression and are drawn to the verbal arts -- writing, acting, singing, and poetry. You may have a great talent in one of these areas. If your creativity is blocked or suppressed, you tend to daydream and fantasize. Your imagination needs a constructive outlet; otherwise, it may run away with you.
At the same time, you may have great difficulty expressing your deeper feelings and important personal thoughts. You prefer to stay on the surface, entertaining people with your wit. If you fail to deal honestly with your inner nature, you may succumb to compulsive talking. Such behavior may be merely a way of siphoning off emotional energy that is building beneath your surface. Your deeply felt emotional life cannot be avoided or suppressed. But you possess the talent to channel these feelings into highly creative and artistic form. Art and self-expression are your outlets.
You need discipline to make full use of your abilities. Too often, you may scatter your energies in many directions, beginning projects that are never finished and never really succeeding in anything. Your success depends on your ability to commit to your work and to see it through to completion. You have so much creativity and inspiring upward energy that you are in desperate need of an anchor. Hard work and discipline serve this purpose and bring out the best in you.
Because you are gifted with such a sparkling personality, you are tempted to stay on the surface and play with life. You are confident and love the attention others give you, but these characteristics can lead to vanity and self-absorption.
You have the potential to live a very full and successful life thanks to your talent for artistic self-expression. The key to your success is a balance between the creative forces and self-disclose.
The consonants of your full name at birth are the foundation of your Personality number, which is a little like a narrow entrance hall to the great room that is your true nature. It's the outer layer of your personality, the part you feel comfortable sharing. With time and trust, you invite others into the deeper aspects of your nature.
Your Personality number serves as a censoring device in terms of what you send out, as well as whom and what you allow to approach. For this reason, your Personality is usually narrower and more protective in its definition than the real you. It also gives an indication of how others perceive you.
Your Personality number is 16/7

You seem mysterious and different. People see you as serious and studious. You are highly independent and self- sufficient. Your exceptional intelligence and wisdom are quickly noticed, people respect you. You are not one to attract people on the basis of your warmth or compassion -- though you may be loaded with both -- but because of your obvious insight into life's mysteries. You are hard to get to know. You are often withdrawn.
It is common for people to see your focus turn inside of yourself in the middle of a conversation. You have the makings of an intellectual and an aristocrat, but you have to guard against arrogance and an attitude of, "I've got it all figured out".
There have been periods in your life when you had little concern for your clothing or fashion, while at other times you are very aware of your clothing and use it to make a specific impression. You appear dignified no matter how you dress., but a well-groomed seven with a touch of dash definitely has an advantage. Your confidence increases when you know you are well dressed.
Your love of knowledge and wisdom shows. You are recognized as spiritual and religious, with your very own ideas regarding the purpose of life and the Creator. You are an inspired speaker, but only when discussing subjects that really interest you. Otherwise, you are not one for chatter.
A Bridge number is based on the numerical difference between two closely related aspects in your chart. It is the gap you need to "bridge" in order to create a more harmonious bond between the two areas.
The following Bridge number connects your Heart's Desire and Personality numbers. It suggests things you can do to help your deeper self to align more closely with your personality; the "outer" you that is apparent to others.
With a little exaggeration, you could say that your Personality number is somewhat like your mask; it's a more superficial aspect you reveal to the world. You can imagine how much more comfortable and less inhibited the experience of life becomes when you can align your authentic self with the personality you show to the world.
Your Heart's Desire - Personality Bridge number is 4

Avoid procrastination. Try to be more reliable and punctual. Be practical, methodical, and systematic in your endeavors. Keep track of details; avoid chaos. Work on the basics of life. Physical and outdoor activities bring you closer to yourself, so get out in nature, work in the garden, or build a fence.
If there was ever a moment of transformation, it was the moment of your birth. In that instant, you stepped into a new reality - the reality of human life and human consciousness. Even at that moment you were a person with your own unique character, as unique as your DNA. The previous chapters focused on YOU, the person you are, as revealed in the letters of your name. It is now time to look at your Path, the road you walk through life, using the numbers found in your date of birth.
Your first breath marked the beginning of your journey on the road we call your Life Path. It makes sense, then, that the most important number in your numerology chart comes from the date of your birth. Your Life Path number gives a broad outline of the opportunities, challenges, and lessons you encounter throughout your life. It also reveals the strengths, specific talents, and characteristics you were given to help you overcome challenges and evolve into the best you can be.
Your Life Path number is considered the single most significant information available in your Personality Chart. It is derived from the total of all numbers found in your date of birth. However, it is important to keep in mind that the aspects described in the next few chapters will either complement, supplement, or sometimes weaken the attributes revealed in numbers derived from your name.
Your Life Path number is 26/8

You are gifted with natural leadership and the capacity to accumulate great wealth. You have great talent for management in all areas of life, especially in business and financial matters. You understand the material world; you intuitively know what makes virtually any enterprise work. Your talent lies not with the bookkeeping or petty management, but with the greater vision, its purpose, and long-range goals. You are a visionary and a bit reckless.
You possess the ability to inspire people to join you in your quest, but often they are incapable of seeing what you see. Therefore, those around you need your continual guidance, inspiration, and encouragement. You must prod them into action and direct them along the lines of your vision.
You attract financial success more than any other Life Path, but effort is required. Your challenge in life is to achieve a high degree of detachment, to understand that power and influence must be used for the benefit of mankind. Those born with the Number 8 Life Path, who do not understand the real and relative value of money are bound to suffer the consequences of greed; they run the risk of losing it all!
You must learn to bounce back from failures and defeats. You have the character and resilience of a true survivor. It is not uncommon for a person with your Life Path to experience major reverses, including bankruptcies, financial failure, but you also have the talent and the sheer guts to make more than one fortune, and build many successful enterprises. More than most people, your failures in marriage can be extremely expensive for you.
Despite the difficulties that life presents, you will experience the satisfaction that comes from material wealth and the power that comes with it. Business, finance, real estate, law, science (particularly history, archeology, and physics), publishing, and the management of large institutions are among the vocational fields that suit you best. You are naturally attracted to positions of influence and leadership -- Politics, social work, and teaching are among the many other areas where your abilities can shine. You are a good judge of character, which aids you well in attracting the right people to you.
Most 8s like large families and sometimes tend to keep others dependent longer than necessary. Although jovial in nature you are not demonstrative in showing your love and affection.
The desire for luxury and comfort is especially strong in you. Status is very important. You must be careful to avoid living above your means.
Your Life Path treads that dangerous ground where power lies -- and can corrupt. You may become too self-important, arrogant, and domineering, thinking that your way is the only way. This leads inevitably to isolation and conflict. The people you run the risk of hurting most are those you love, your family and friends.
Be careful of becoming stubborn, intolerant, overbearing, and impatient. These characteristics may be born early in the life of an 8 Life Path, who often learn these negative traits after suffering under a tyrannical parent or a family burdened by repressive religious or intellectual dogmas.
Those with the 8 Life Path usually possess a strong physique, which is a symptom of their inherent strength and resiliency.
The day you were born bears great significance in understanding who you are and where your talents lie. Your day of birth indicates special talents you possess. It gives us an indication of the approach you will take toward the goals, opportunities and obstacles you encounter on your Life's Path.
Your Birth Day number is 22/4

You are a hard worker and a conscientious person. You are precise and take great care in what you do. You are highly-principled, disciplined, and responsible. Testscudrent, you take your obligations very seriously. You are highly ethical. You can be proud and upright, but, conversely, you are not particularly arrogant. You have compassion for people. You tend to persevere in the face of an obstacle or personality problem.
You love your family and make a wonderful mate. Yet, you are not overly emotional, nor very demonstrative of your love. You tend to understate your affections.
You are constantly focused on the foundations of your life -- whether it is in business, career, or family matters, you take care of the basics. You are highly rational. You are not one for pie-in-the-sky solutions to problems. Nor are you given to get-rich-quick schemes. Yours is the slow, patient approach, sound and secure.
You are a natural organizer and manager. People -- especially relatives and co-workers -- tend to rely on you. You are perceived as the rock of any endeavor. You can be stubborn and rigid. Your nature is to dig in and wait. This can close you off from solutions or creative ideas. You must work at being more flexible. You often experience frustrations and repression. You are not an emotional person, and perhaps you don't fully understand the emotional realm. This is the reason you can be rather tactless at times.
Be careful to avoid excess work and missing out at smelling the roses of life. You like to be in nature.
Your Life Path and Birthday numbers are closely connected and influence each other. This Bridge explains how you can make the connection between them more harmonious.
Your Life Path - Birthday Bridge number is 4

Your 4 Bridge tells us that your Life Path and Birth Day numbers will be brought into more harmonious affiliation if you take a disciplined, coordinated approach to your endeavors. In your case, the need to be in accord with the natural timeline of events is particularly important. Procrastination affects everyone, but you will feel the consequences of inaction more strongly. Handling issues in a timely manner prevents chaos and increases the influence you will have on your own circumstances.
Another aspect of a 4 Bridge is the need to keep a close eye on the small, seemingly trivial, details. Everything about your 4 Bridge points to the benefits of running a tight ship.
You face four specific Challenges in your lifetime. For many of us, the same challenge is repeated, while others have four distinctly different lessons to learn.
These Challenges place you in situations that require you to face the particular lesson at hand. This provides an opportunity for you to learn or better integrate personal traits that will benefit you during the lesson, and throughout your life.
The four Challenges in your chart will influence you during the periods of your life listed below.
The duration of your First Challenge usually lasts from birth until age 30 to 35.
Your First Challenge is 3

You are your own worst critic. You suppress your individuality and creativity. Each time you want to make an impression, you doubt yourself beforehand, and criticize yourself ruthlessly afterward. Your criticism of yourself is far more severe than anyone else's. As a result, you tend to play it safe by staying on the surface, indulging in superficialities. You rarely express what goes on deep inside of you; instead, you cover up your feelings with humor or perfunctory remarks.
You often feel alone and lonely. Your fear of social interaction causes you to strain conversation by making too many jokes and forced joviality. It may help you to find a creative outlet for your imagination, possibly through writing, painting, singing or dance.
At the bottom of the challenge is an effort to bring out your true self. You will learn to truly value your own creative talents above anyone else's judgments. This must be viewed as a process of individuation, in which you become a whole human being, independent and free of the need to conform to others.
Your Second Challenge is in place from approximately age 30 through 55.
Your Second Challenge is 1

You must learn to be independent. You will be forced to stand up for yourself and your rights. You will be faced with situations in which you will have to choose between standing up for what you think is right versus giving in to another person's demands. You will have to struggle to strengthen and know your own will power. You will have to learn to be firm and trust your judgment. Don't run with the crowd, be an individual.
This whole lesson represents the frontiers of your consciousness. Therefore, you will have to experience much trial and error, sometimes exploding with bursts of aggression, other times being intimidated and letting frustration and anger build within you until you are ready to act on your deepest instincts. You will learn your own set of values; you will develop into an individual with original and innovative ideas.
This Challenge carries much weight and will be felt throughout your life. For that reason, it is also called the Main Challenge.
As you master this challenge and incorporate its positive aspects into your character, your life gradually feels more in control. There is a chance for great reward implicit in this challenge. In short, it may offer the secret to your success.
Your Third and Main Challenge is 2

You are overly sensitive and too aware of other peoples' expectations. You suppress yourself to avoid feeling conspicuous. You can be overwhelmed by self-consciousness. You fear gossip about you. As a result, you become inhibited. All of this results in a suppression of your own individuality and uniqueness. You yearn to blend into the crowd.
You let your own feelings and emotions play too big a role. Your hypersensitivity causes fear, timidity and lack of self-confidence. And you experience unnecessary fear and emotional turmoil. Little things seem disproportionately difficult to overcome and sometimes have a paralyzing effect. Jealousy can cause much pain and misunderstanding.
These negative aspects of the challenge actually spring in part from positive characteristics you possess, especially your acute awareness and intuition. You are an antenna for other people's feelings; you know before a word is spoken how they feel.
You lack the inner strength to maintain your own center and try to conform to the prevailing emotional atmosphere.
This challenge makes you understanding and compassionate; you have an enormous empathy for the inner turmoil of others and can do much good for people with emotional problems.
Your Fourth Challenge is most strongly felt during the latter part of your life, beginning at approximately age of 60.
Your Fourth Challenge is 2
We have focused on the letters of your name and the numbers from your date of birth. We will now look at numbers in your chart derived from the combination of both your name and the date of your birth. Acquiring the attributes described in the next few chapters will help smooth your progress. As you learn more about yourself, you may begin to recognize traits you were previously unaware of.
This Bridge has the potential to "close the gap" between the Life Path and the Expression numbers. The chapter explains how you can make your talents, strengths, and specific abilities (your Expression number) more readily available and fitting to your goals and personal growth.
Your Life Path - Expression Bridge number is 7

Your 7 Bridge indicates there are times when you over-think issues. There may be times when a problem confronts you that you would have no trouble resolving. But, while attempting to strip away non-essential elements, you sometimes become mired in the details instead of focusing on the vital aspect of your concern. This may include seeing more in the picture than there really is (or more than what actually matters).
You could benefit from keeping things simple and straightforward. Unfortunately, this is not an easy thing to do when 7 is your bridge number - known to be particularly analytical, reflective, insightful, and intellectual.
Your Maturity number indicates an underlying wish or desire that gradually surfaces at around age 30 to 35. A direction begins to emerge as you gain a better understanding of yourself. With this self-knowledge comes a greater awareness of who you are, and the direction you want to set for your life.
Your Maturity number is 18/9

Your concern for the wellbeing of society will grow more powerful as you come to maturity. You will be drawn to doing much public service. The long-term good of your community and even the world will occupy your thoughts increasingly. Service to humanity is fundamental to your life. You will grow in understanding and wisdom as you mature. Involvement with international affairs or humanitarian service offers you much satisfaction.
As you mature, your appreciation for the arts and beauty in any form will also increase. It is quite possible that you will be actively involved in the arts, if that is not already the case, often as a benefactor.
If you have few 9s in your chart, or none at all, you will gain a sense of your personal place among the human race. You will feel you belong and that you have provided something of lasting value for the future. If you already have several 9s in your chart, especially among the core numbers, you will have to guard against arrogance, aloofness, and alienation.
Like most stories, there are three distinct stages of your life. Your First, Second, and Third Period Cycles come from your month, day, and year of birth respectively. Together they form the foundation of your Life's Path.
The First Cycle begins in childhood and lasts through your late 20's. It's a quest for knowledge and identity while you cope with the powerful forces that are present in your environment. These forces include your parents and the socio-economic conditions of your family, for example.
The Second Cycle covers the middle period of your life, bringing about the slow emergence of your individual and creative talents. This cycle begins in the early and mid-30's while struggling to find your place in the world. The late 30's, 40's, and 50's, bring a greater degree of self-mastery and influence over your environment.
The Third Cycle starts approximately age 55, and represents a flowering of your inner self as your true nature comes to fruition. It is during this period that you have the greatest degree of power and self-expression.
Your First Period Cycle runs from birth until your mid 30's.
Your First Period Cycle is 1 and lasts until age 28

The first part of your life, through your late 20's or early 30's, is a period of much intensity. When the 1 dominates, it requires fortitude, courage, and flexibility. You are forced to use every one of your talents to achieve individuality and independence. This is a period of integration and focusing on your life's dreams.
Your ability to stay the course is repeatedly challenged, but adequate resources become available to assist you. Resilience, independence, and fortitude are required. As you strengthen these characteristics, they become an integral part of your personality and help you to emerge stronger for it. This cycle marks a time of progress in your development.
Your Second Period Cycle runs from your mid 30's until your late 50's.
Your Second Period Cycle is 22

Your talents as a builder, organizer, and visionary are at their peak.
You discern the needs of others and create constructive and practical plans to fulfill those needs. You commit yourself entirely to the work at hand. For many, this dream lasts a lifetime and requires every ounce of energy and talent. An all-consuming role beckons but provides a great sense of personal accomplishment and reward. You possess an ability to make a lasting contribution to the well-being of humanity.
This cycle carries enormous potential for establishing a lasting institution or teaching that will greatly benefit others. You have the ability to manifest a concept, dream, or invention.
Your Third Period Cycle covers the later part of your life, starting in your early 60's.
Your Third Period Cycle is 3

The latter part of your life finds you "growing older" more slowly than your peers. The excitable, scattered, creative energy of the 3 can resemble an elixir from the fountain of youth. However, there is a tendency to waste time and energy on unproductive projects.
You have many original ideas, but you may have difficultly differentiating between lead balloons and those that can fly. Your 3 energy is uplifting and motivating, which draws people to you. However, staying focused may be a challenge, which could affect your ability to reach your goal.
Your need to express yourself through art, especially the verbal or performing arts increases with age.
Although Pinnacle Cycles and Period Cycles are both derived from your date of birth, they differ in the way you experience them. Period Cycles, described above, reflect internal stages of growth. Pinnacle Cycles represent the external influences you encounter in life.
Pinnacles reveal general conditions and events you experience during each period, such as your environment, social conditions, relationships, and changing circumstances. Pinnacles reveal how you might respond to these influences and how they will affect your ever-evolving personality.
The transition from one Pinnacle to the next is usually strongly felt. You begin to feel the transition from one Pinnacle to the next approximately two years in advance. The latter part of that two-year period can be particularly strong. You will likely make life-altering decisions, such as marriage, a job or career change, or major changes in your personal makeup.
Knowing and understanding your approaching Pinnacle number prepares you for the changes ahead. Perhaps the most strongly felt change is the transition from First to Second Pinnacle, which usually takes place in your late 20's or early 30's (the exact date depends on your Life Path number). This is usually a difficult transition but once crossed, provides a clear sense of direction and a firmer sense of identity.
Your First Pinnacle cycle is 5 and runs from birth until approximately age 28

This is a period that will teach the realities of freedom and expansion. You will travel great distances, meet many new and interesting people, experience many adventures, and essentially come to know the world. You are in a period of accelerated experimentation and learning. Experience is your teacher. Your ability with words is greatly increased. You can write and speak with ease. You are also able to successfully promote yourself. In fact, this is the source of much adventure; new opportunities for work, travel, and exotic experiences present themselves with regularity.
Your challenge is to prevent yourself from becoming a rolling stone. You need to ground yourself in a particular discipline, career, or relationship. This will not limit your freedoms so much as give you a base for operation. Otherwise, you may find yourself skipping from one meaningless job to the next, one superficial relationship after another. You can also fall victim to the abuse of food, alcohol, sex, or drugs. You must accept limitations as a necessary base for your freedom. Freedom cannot exist without limitations, otherwise you would be without identity, and without existence.
You may fear being anchored or tied down, which can cause you to skim the surface of a pursuit you enjoy, or important relationships. You must come to know the true meaning of freedom, which is unconditional love. You give your love and energy without the condition of holding on to a place, a person, or an occupation; and you expect the same in return -- to be loved for what you are, rather than someone who belongs to another. There is a highly spiritual path offering itself that requires detachment without loss of love. Many turn away from this and instead choose to maintain a superficial relationship with the world, or with other people.
You must cultivate your talents, especially your verbal and writing abilities. You are likely a gifted salesperson, or promoter.
Your Second Pinnacle Cycle lasts nine years and tends to have a considerable influence on your productive/professional life.
Your Second Pinnacle cycle is 7 and runs from age 28 until age 37

This is a period of inner development and soul searching. Testscudrent, you will deal with the deeply important questions of personal existence and the meaning of life. You will need time to be alone to contemplate your inner world. This is a time of spiritual growth. You will experience a heightened sense of faith. The power of the universe will be the force that carries you along. During this 7 Pinnacle, spiritual growth, increased knowledge, and wisdom are the big rewards. The 7 Pinnacle provides the basis for contentment in older age, because you now begin to understand life more deeply.
