1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, Numerology

One imparts the all-powerful vibes of `Sun`.

The number provides distinct effects under different Zodiacs:

In Leo - The vibes of the number will be strong and the characteristics will be more prominent.
In Gemini, Aries, Sagittarius and Libra - the number will still be in harmony with that of the sign. The characteristics of Number 1 gels well with the characteristics of the zodiac.
In Cancer, Scorpio, Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn and Pisces - The number 1 vibration will bring out the qualities in the most unexpected manner. Many a times the number qualities might `seem` to be absent, surfacing out prominently at other occasions.

The number will balance the sun sign nature of Aquarius.

Number `One` provides natural leadership qualities to the person. Number 1 people are initiators and leaders. They tend to take charge of a situation with self-assurance and confidence that shows. It is a very powerful number, which makes its presence known wherever it goes. The number 1 person is also occasionally known for His/ her bossy attitude towards others. More often the confidence is bright on surface with hidden streaks of vulnerability inside.

Number 1 people are highly independent individuals with a habit of holding on to their attitude. Anyone trying to oppose them might be treated harshly by them.

They like grandeur and want to live life in its full. The `Sun` number imparts brightness and energy in everything it undertakes. A person within the influence of this number should channelize his active and passionate nature in something productive, so that the extra energy doesn`t turn into ego and aggressiveness. One should also check in rigidity and stubbornness.

The whole idea of dictating things around to get things done in a better way sounds like a good idea. But this control freak, demanding attitude should be practised with diplomacy and tact. In reality, most people sooner or later agree about the skillful ways of handling situations by a number one person and its is but natural for the Sun ruled people to assume a commanding position.

A number 1 individual likes being loved and hates being ignored. But they often forget that key to receive love is to first give love unconditionally.

Sun ruled people are born with a sense of dignity and a love for fine things in life.

One is an entity with very strong vibrations. Anyone born with it is destined to succeed or at least make an impact. There is nothing subtle about it.



Number Two corresponds to the vibrations of Moon.

Moon governs our psyche, emotional and mental self. A number two person is sensitive, and a seeker for family life. They look for emotional harmony and companionship in their lives. Even the most gregarious outgoing person with this number will prefer privacy and a relaxed time and space of his own. People with "dominant" effect of this number may turn shy and often reclusive.

Number two shows its profound effect in the sun sign of Cancer.
Two balances the characteristics of Capricorn.
Sun signs of Scorpio, Pisces, Virgo and Taurus gel well with characteristics of Two.
Aries, Libra, Gemini, Sagittarius, Aquarius and Leo gives varied and unexpected effects of this number.

Just like the changing shapes and effects of moon, the person`s moods and energy is also changeable. The number two person who was so jolly and caring one second may turn around to be cold and gloomy the next. They are intuitive and contemplative. Inclination towards romance and arts is but natural under this number`s dominance.

Although Number 2 people are highly intuitive and sympathetic for other`s feelings, they usually keep their own emotions to themselves.

Love for good food and wine make them a gourmet, and more often excellent cooks. They are also endowed with a good sense of humour, even if its occasional.

Number 2 people are very adaptable and flexible. Until and unless they are not endowed with fiery signs, they will choose to not to be aggressive in their stands. They prefer harmony, comfort and security in their life. They are extremely responsible people. Devoted to their family by heart, they cherish the worth of financial security.

This `moon` number is truly the number of maternal instincts, nurturing and nourishing.



Three corresponds to the grand planet - "Jupiter".

Optimism and dynamism is the forte of this number. The number also imparts artistic and creative disposition to the person under its influence.

Three is strongly effective in the Sun sign of Sagittarius.
It balances the sun sign of Gemini.

With the other fire signs (Aries, Leo) and Air signs (Libra and Aquarius), the qualities are well in harmony.

Number three is not in harmony with Earth signs (Taurus, Capricorn and Virgo) and water signs (Scorpio, cancer and Pisces). Hence it gives varied and unexpected results when placed in these Sun signs.

`Three` number is all about ideals and ideas. Everything they do will be driven with these two higher goals. The visionary qualities of people endowed with this number drives their independent thinking and actions.

Highly optimistic, `3` people need constant stimulation and change in ideas and scenery. They like to travel and explore new avenues. Number three is quite strong an influence in missionaries, nuns, priests, social workers and even fanatics. Even if a three person is a quite ordinary businessman, he will definitely have some idea, goal or vision for his business. Three people are straightforward (sometimes too blunt) and are fond of people in general.

These Jupiter ruled people also need constant physical stimulation. Physical activities and sports do good to them.

They are fiercely independent, loving and loyal. With unwavering love towards mankind, these people hates injustice and protect the underprivileged (often the abandoned pets in the streets).

This number should be guarded against getting too idealistic and delving only in dreams. Every vision should be backed up by a practical purpose, only then `Three` will gets its due credit for bringing a lot of knowledge, light and progress in this world.

The number `Four` is ruled by Planet Rahu.

The qualities of this number are quite strong in the sun sign of Aquarius.

The number is in opposition with the zodiac of Leo, but both the traits can be balanced out.

With other air signs (Gemini and Libra) and fire signs (Aries and Sagittarius), the characteristics gel well together.

Vibes of number four are in opposition with the Earthy Sun signs of Taurus and Virgo, and water sign of Scorpio, Cancer and Pisces. Hence it gives varied and unexpected results over here.

Rahu resembles Saturn or Shani. Shani is the ruling planet of Capricorn as well. Hence number four usually works well with Capricorn also, although mostly it is in sharp contrast. It only instills more efficiency in the sun sign.

This number is a bit difficult to analyse. The person governed by this number is a `worker`. He /she never shies away from laboring his way through to build something. Number four people love freedom of expression and thinking. Still they have an uncanny sense of responsibility and stability. They are very good and committed organizers and workers.

Sometimes, number four people are highly individualistic and love to shock people with their unconventional ideas. Such people make their own norms, which at times can be contradictory to that of society. (Although this is not exactly the general case.)

Number four can generally be very good at making friends. They are extremely understanding and loyal tothe loved ones. This can often be very disadvantageous to their own psyche, as they tend to take the mental burdens of others to themselves.

Number four works their way to achievement and destiny in life. And in their own way they help others and humanity in general to realise their potential.

The planet `Ketu` rules number Seven. Ketu conveys energy of thoughts and philosophy.

The number seven enhances the sun sign traits of Pisces.

"Seven" number is not so powerful in signs of Virgo, Sagittarius, Aries, Libra and Leo.

Ketu is the planet of spiritual enlightenment. Hence, a number seven person is endowed with a quest to know his/her deeper self. The artists born in this number manifest their dreams and philosophy in poetry and drama with insight. Research and observation are the passive passions inbred in them.

Nobody around them will ever suspect of the powerful ambitions within them. But secretly they know how to paddle up quietly but vigorously. Eight people are hard workers and more than willing to put up with difficult situations, which may otherwise break the back of common strugglers. Slowly and surely they make their way towards their goal. They excel in anything requiring steadfastness and practical intelligence.

So that the world can give them acknowledgement, which they truly deserve.



`Mars` is the ruler of the number Nine.

Mars is the planet of courage, drive, aggression and masculine energy.
All these qualities are the inherent embodiment of the number Nine.

When the sun sign is `Aries`, Nine enhances the sign`s characteristics manifolds.

The qualities of this number are in opposition with peace loving Libra and Pisces. Hence, traits of both these zodiacs can be balanced out eventually.

Leo, Gemini, Sagittarius and Aquarius gel well with this number`s disposition. While earthy signs (Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo) and the other two water signs (Scorpio and Cancer) are not in alignment with this number. Therefore it is bound to give unexpected and varied results whenever the combination of these Sun signs and number nine occurs.

Number nine imparts ferocious drive and energy to the person and entity its associated with. "Nine" people are highly determined and courageous people. They go after what they want with zeal and fearlessness. They seem to be stubborn because of their added enthusiasm and display of perfect confidence. At some times, they may actually seem to be pushy.

In reality, they are honest and loyal people with very transparent thought process (until and unless a sun sign with contradictary characteristics dominates). Its just that they follow any idea or ideals with extra fervor.

Inspite of their confident behaviour, they are very vulnerable souls from inside. They would never show it, but its necessary for them to be loved, respected and admired. This often becomes the root cause of their adherence to their own believes and rebel with ideas of others.

They are often very friendly and trusting to others. This may be the very quality that proves them naïve at times. Nine number people should guard against flaring up of tempers and fruitless aggressive pursuits. They should be more tolerant of other`s views, and have patience in general.

Number Nine people are great initiators and natural leaders. They lead people through a common goal or idea. Usually, they are quite generous and often brilliantly intelligent. This child like disposition makes a number nine person chase a rainbow, and finally achieve it as reward.
