HOW TO USE IT
General course of life numerology is premised on the commonly-held idea that life is divided up into the periods of youth, adulthood, and old age. Our birthdates are tripartite pieces of information: month-day-year, or in some societies, it’s day-month-year. The first part of the birthdate, reduced to a single digit, tells you about the general course of life in the person’s childhood, adolescence and early adulthood. The second part of the birthdate tells you about the general nature of what we traditionally call a person’s adulthood or ‘prime-of-life’ period. The third part of the birthdate, the year, tells you in general terms, what their old age is going to be like.
Before I go any further, here’s the downloadable PDF of the document in the picture at the beginning of this lesson:
The last two pages of this download is a form which you can print out and use if you want to do a formal reading for a person, but I consider the second page of it optional. I included a little area at the top of the form for the life path number, because that’s always going to be the ‘backdrop’ against which you’re doing the reading. To a degree, it’s going to ‘color’ the reading.
Say someone has a five life path number, and their first life period number is 3, their second life period is 5, and their third life period number is 7. They’re very-much going to enjoy the first phase of their life, possibly even pushing the envelope of what’s allowable in their desire for adventure and new experiences. They’ll fully embrace their freedom in their prime of life, and in old age, may find themselves more solitary than they’d like; seven is a very different energy from five. Still, their fundamental five drive for freedom, adventure, change, and excitement, will find a way to manifest itself through the seven. They may travel, but the motivation will be satisfying a scholarly or arcane interest, or as a spiritual pilgrimage, whereas in the three and five life periods, it may be travel just for the fun and adventure of it. The second page of the form is for if you want to do a synergistic analysis of how their life path number will (or won’t) mesh with their life period number.
Another thing to keep in mind with the life-path/life-period interface is, if they have, say, and even-numbered life path, but an odd-numbered life period, there might well be some disharmony there, and the individual may have trouble making their best use of the potential of that life period, because their life path number orients them in a fundamentally-different direction. For example, a four life path would normally make the person a solid and reliable spouse, but if their second life period number is five, then they may be feeling a little rebellious at times against the four’s reliability, and it could cause friction. Or, given that they’re a four life path, they might not embrace the possibilities of the five as much as they otherwise might, leaving them wondering what might’ve been if they had.
