Numerology At A Glance by Clifford W. Cheasley PHILOSOPHER
(First Published:

Love - Friendship -
Business
Numerology has some very
definite methods for the analysis of human association which
from mere acquaintanceship runs through friendship, business,
to the ultimate of love. It is no longer sufficient for
intelligent people to set love apart from all other
associations. Rather, it is true that as it is love that makes
the world go round, without the presence of this eternal
reaction, no individual would even glance twice at another and
the situations of family life, business partnership, as well
as the more sentimental attachments, would be impossible.
With the interpretations
of Numerology, it is evident that each personality is really
constructed of a collection of energy units; the cells of the
chemical body, the nervous system, the mentality, the
character and the ego itself.
Human association is
therefore a matter of attraction and repulsion between these
units of living energy in different personalities and its
success or failure is not so completely the fault of the
individuals involved as we have been led to believe.
Those individuals who
have a physical, mental or emotional structure that is opposed
to our own have a peculiar fascination for us on the plane of
the opposition. Hence comes the belief in the law of opposites
which are said to attract, but which while they indicate
attraction, do not hold.
Those
individuals who have an affinity with our vibratory structure,
attract us in a less evident manner, but such association
makes for the amplification of the power in a single
personality on the plane of the harmony which in time sways
the physical conditions and promises lasting harmony.
All reforms on all
planes of life are born of the unity of the physical work, the
thought and the emotion of individuals of similar vibrations,
but in the building of individual character through the medium
of experience, many associations that are not so harmonious
are necessary to offer the resistance in the overcoming of
which, bodies, minds and souls are given tests and the
opportunity to prove their quality.
Human life would be a
hum-drum and mediocre experience if every association was
always harmonious, for it is only in spite of obstacles that
many natures can achieve final happiness. Happiness and
success are not necessarily permanent conditions to which the
fact of our human nature and desires entitles us, but rewards
that life offers the individual as the price for the surrender
of many of the petty ambitions and selfish aspirations so
peculiar to our lesser selves.
Human association being
then a matter of harmonious and inharmonious vibrations in
different personalities and phases of environment, there are
some suggestions to be gained neurologically from comparing
the name numbers and the birth numbers of those with whom we
are or anticipate becoming associated.
In the first pages of
this book will be found instructions for numbering the letters
of the name for the purpose of deciding personal
characteristics. If you have not memorized these instructions
turn to them now and you will see that the first letters of
the name to be dealt with are vowels, a, e, i, o, u; the
addition of the vowels in the name give the "Ideality" or
deeper nature and motive.
Take the complete birth
name of yourself and of someone else with whom you are
associated in close relationship and compare the final number
of the "Idealities." If the numbers are identical, this shows
the deeper motives, purposes, ideals and principles of the
individuals to be almost identical and marks the basis for
harmony in a lasting friendship, love or marriage. Both 2,
both 3, both 8 and so on.
If the "Ideality"
numbers of two names are both even numbers, such as one 2 and
the other 4, one 6 and the other 8, one 9 and the other 7
there will be found between the deeper natures an agreement
upon general purposes and interests, sufficient to overcome
the danger of permanent disagreement and misunderstanding, but
different enough to give individually different views and
angles to the mutual motive and desire.
If one "Ideality" is an
odd and the other is an even number, this shows that the
individuals, even when looking at the same subject or
prospect, are viewing it from an entirely different angle. Not
knowing this as the real cause of why they see things entirely
differently, they become intolerant and impatient of each
other's opinions, which leads to definite antagonism and
recriminations.
The viewpoint from which
their arguments are deduced is not a mutual one, but it
appears to each that it ought to be, or that the other is
going out of the way to be either stupid, aggravating, or is
taking a delight in pouring discouragement upon a cherished
ideal or a much loved principle.
To have the same number
in "Idealities" is the most harmonious and makes a lasting
basis upon which to build a love or friendship as well as a
single goal to aspire to. To have one "Ideality" an even
number and the other another even number but of different
denomination, is the next most harmonious; to have the
"Ideality" in once case an even number and in the other an
odd, is the most inharmonious and difficult and makes an
impermanent basis for future happiness.
It is not hard
to explain why the majority of physical marriages are made
between two people who have opposite "dealities" for Dame
Nature is a great match-maker and has more to do with the
association than anyone else, even often more than the parties
themselves. In the laws of God in Nature, opposite poles of
force are more productive. These laws work for the perfection
of the rose, quite indifferent to the human hands that may get
torn by the thorns-but, nature will also undertake the healing
of torn hands.
It is this natural
tendency to mate with our opposites in "Idealities" that makes
the experience of marriage so often a disillusioning one.
Illusions, dreams and romance which often precede marriage are
born in the individual ideal which is formulated from the
deepest, most personal qualities of the ego, whereas the
actual experience of marriage demands the surrender of the
personal ideal of both parties for the purpose of building a
co-operative ideal and expression which actually is not
completely of the nature of one party or the other, but the
blending of both. This blending process is so much simpler
when the original individual qualities in each character are
of a similar vibration than when they are decidedly opposite.
There is great
development resulting often from the close association of
opposing "Idealities," for if such an experience can be viewed
from the more impersonal angle of character building, each
party can acquire an understanding and a respect for a
principle which before the association and without it would be
impossible.
The experience, which is
always more important than harmonious, disciplines and
balances each character to the point where the two sides in
every question of life can be better appreciated. Most humans
however are not looking for self-development and discipline
when they contemplate getting married, and the simple rules of
Numerology point to how these more difficult things may be
avoided, if such is the wish, and, if they have not been
avoided, how to understand and what to do about it.
The next phase of
analyzing human associations is the comparison of the numbers
appearing as the final "Expression."
Those people who have
the same number of "Expression" as that of our own complete
name make very good companions for social enjoyment. In the
office, the workshop, the studio or the home, we can do many
tasks together because although each person may be working for
a different objective, the methods employed, the means taken
to do things is identical. Trying to make confidantes of these
people or expecting them to like the things we like, is often
disappointing unless their "Ideality" is also the same as our
own, and then in that case we sometimes grow tired of seeing
ourselves so completely reflected in another personality.
If "Expressions" are
both even numbers but of different denomination, there is
still a good deal of similarity in the methods taken to
express although in playing and working together there will be
little individual touches which show the different phases of
each temperament.
To have the "Expression"
opposite, viz, one an even number, 2, 4, 6, 8 and another one
of the odd numbers, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 makes it very difficult for
the persons to do very much playing or working together. If
they wish to develop a mutual idea, it is better for them to
agree on the nature and desirability of the objective and then
to develop it into two entirely different expressions, which
can have two different uses and thus broaden the scope of the
idea itself.
So long as "Idealities" are more similar,
opposition in "Expression" forms the best basis for successful
partnerships in business, for each person acts as a new and a
different outlet for the mutual purpose, whereas a too great
similarity in the "Expressions" of business partners makes for
a sameness, a lack of variety, and a duplication of effort.
PROGRESSIVE COMBINATIONS LOVE AND
FRIENDSHIP
The same Ideality
number. The Expression numbers both odd or both even but of
different denomination.
MARRIAGE
Ideality numbers the
same or both odd or even numbers of different denomination.
Expressions, both odd or even numbers of different
denomination.
SOCIAL COMPANIONSHIP
Idealities both odd or
even numbers of different denomination. The same number in
Expression.
BUSINESS PARTNERSHIP
Idealities both odd or
even numbers of different denomination. Expressions one an odd
number, the other an even. To find an association of any kind
between two people where the "Expression" number of one is the
"Path of Life" number of the other means that the one who has
the particular number as "Expression" is very necessary to the
other and is likely to be the channel through which important
and developing experiences and opportunities will be given.
The "Expression" numbers
of two people who are married or in close partnership can be
added together. The sum of this addition will tell, not the
effect that one personality has upon the other, but a dominant
influence of the association, by which both are affected as
well as defining what the experience has meant in both lives,
and what they have expressed together. Use the following table
to discover what the nine numerals show used in this phase of
interpreting human association.
THE SUM OF TWO "EXPRESSION" NUMBERS. 1.
Through this association
the parties have found them selves. They have become more
independent of each other.
2. The effect has been
discipline for both. Sometimes confusion but always a test of
patience, tact and obedience.
3. Both parties have
found more opportunity for expressing themselves, perhaps
apart. The association has been the means of individual
advancement.
4. The association has
been somewhat of a burden. Practical things have been done,
but there has been very little fun. Each has learned to serve
better and work harder. 5. Each party has a regenerative
effect upon the other and is a constant source of new ideas,
self develop ment, unexpected experience, and some
uncertainty. A lack of obligation.
6. An experience of
mutual adjustment. Somewhat static conditions of heavy
responsibility, a growth of steadiness in each individual.
Family and community life, and definite obligation.
7. Difficulty,
isolation, and some misunderstanding. A development of the
inner nature as a retreat from lack of outer companionship.
Troublesome health or money conditions.
8. A development of
better judgment and an experience in business. Improvement of
health, money and of the mind, in its faculties of
organization. Practical management and economic problems.
9. Considerable
confusion and emotion. Involved with many conflicting
interests and experiences. Development of tolerance for and a
knowledge of human nature. Indifference to
personalities.
