HOW HIS NAME NUMBERS STACK UP

He was born with a 7 Expression, a 2 Heart's Desire, and a 5 Personality. Although his Personality is not the most important aspect of his character, it is the most "visible" because it is the part of him others tend to notice first. The freedom-loving, extroverted, and sometimes irresponsible energy of his 5 Personality gives him a wild, somewhat rebellious side. This could make others misread who he is on a deeper level, because his 7 Expression and 2 Heart's Desire characteristics are more subdued. It also has the potential to make him feel misunderstood.

His 7 Expression gives him a secretive, hidden side, despite his jovial, social 5 demeanor. This side of him values privacy and does not easily lay bare his true nature. He is knowledge-hungry and takes the grand questions in life seriously: "Who am I?" and "Why am I here?" The 7 is normally not religious in the conventional sense, but he likely takes the spiritual or philosophical side of life seriously. The 7 is an idealist and a daydreamer.

These two influences of the 5 and the 7, are almost opposite when it comes to the way he will appear in social situations and romance. His 5 is an adventurous, outgoing number; his 7 is reserved and a bit awkward. He has probably experienced each of them at different times, perhaps making even himself a little confused about which is the "real" him. The answer, of course, is both.

To make social situations and relationships even more challenging, his Heart's Desire is a 2. This is the most sensitive, emotionally charged number. It can increase his vulnerability, allowing the discordant traits of the 5 and 7 to upset him even more. The 7 and 2 combination can be difficult for relationships. His 2 Heart's Desire tells us the closeness and intimacy of relationships are very important to him, while his 7 Expression makes him want to keep some distance and much of what he feels and thinks to himself. In that way they are each other's opposite, which makes it challenging to find a balance.

There are positive aspects in this combination as well. His 2 Heart's Desire helps align the 5 and 7, precisely because of its sensitivity. It is especially perceptive when reading the minds and hearts of others. To lessen the possibility of being overly sensitive, and therefore particularly vulnerable, try to be aware that he could (in part) be exaggerating his perception or emotions. He is also sensitive to the emotional state of others. He has a politician's awareness for what people want to hear, and he can manipulate and influence without having to try very hard.

Still, his strengths and talents lie more with analytical and abstract thought, rather than emotional and romantic connections. He is therefore a contradiction in more than one way. His sometimes-exuberant exterior can conflict with his introverted interior, while his powerful romantic aspirations can clash with a lack of emotional clarity.

When considering vocational talents, his inquisitive, thoughtful, serious 7 Expression is the most influential.

Combined with the 5 and 2, it can be favorable in any career that requires an objective assessment of others. This includes the fields of education or mental health, philosophy, theologies, social worker, or psychiatrist. (Carl Jung had some numbers in common with him.) The key word here is objective; there should not be emotional attachment involved. Other options to please the 7 include careers in highly skilled work such as expert craftsman (instrument maker, diamond cutter, etc.), artist (most likely realism), photographer, carpenter, or jeweler. Careers in science or academics are favorable, particularly in the more solitary working environment of the clinical or research fields.

In his Personal life, he will need to be mindful of too much experimenting; alcohol and drugs can be a temptation when the 7 and 5 team up. He may want to marry or commit later in life, this would give his sensual, adventurous 5 Personality time to play before committing to a long-term relationship.

Let us look at each of the core numbers for more insight. 

A CLOSER LOOK AT HIS 7 EXPRESSION

A man with a 7 Expression is gifted with an analytical mind and an enormous appetite for the answers to life's hidden questions. He has a strong interest in exploring scientific matters, philosophy, and even mysticism. He possesses clarity and persistence in his search for truth. He can be a great researcher, educator, and philosopher. He is driven by a desire for knowledge and truth. He must learn to discriminate between illusion and reality and is well equipped for this task. His fine mind offers him insight into the veiled mysteries of life. He also possesses a considerable amount of perspective. Somewhere inside him, he is aware of a peaceful place that he calls upon during difficult times.

This person needs time to be by himself. Too much social interaction causes him stress. He needs his privacy and a place that can be shut off from the hustle and bustle of life. He tends to keep his thoughts to himself and is secretive. Unless his 7 expression is balanced by extrovert characteristics, his introversion may pull him deeply within himself, even cutting him off from others.

He has a strong dislike of the superficial and mundane and is often surprised by the lack of understanding or depth of knowledge of others, many of whom do not take the search for knowledge as seriously as he does. This can cause him to be critical of others, and even cynical about life in general. The more cut off from others he becomes, the more hidden are his motives. Once he develops understanding of people and life, his advice and counsel will be sought by those around him who need his wisdom.

He loves to specialize his knowledge and develop great depth within his field. He is a perfectionist. He should complete his studies early in life and not be driven too hard by a desire to be successful. He should let things come at their own pace, be open to opportunity, and remember his rewards, satisfaction, and contentment come from a higher source.

Sevens can be distant and aloof. When dominated by their darker characteristics, they can be unfaithful, dishonest, and cruel. Contemplation, meditation, and the softer, finer vibrations of life can restore his sense of harmony and keep him on the path to peace and balance.

He has a logical mind. His analytical skills cause him to approach a problem in a detached, surgical kind of way. Researchers, analysts, investigators, inventors, technicians, scholars, lawyers, bankers, watchmakers, priests, philosophers, theologians, and administrators in some scientific or technical field are among the vocations 7s are drawn to.

HIS HEART'S DESIRE IS 2

He wants peace and harmony in all aspects of his life. He wants to devote his life to someone or something. He falls in love easily. He is extremely sensitive and emotional. He can be sentimental, and he cries at sad stories. He needs friends and society. He appreciates the refinements of life. He desires comfort and security. He has refined taste and can be a connoisseur. He loves music and possesses a good deal of musical talent. His sensitivity is a symptom of his highly developed intuition. But he must learn to trust it.

He is a gentle soul and shies away from confrontation if possible. He experiences a battle within when he does not believe he can handle a situation; this may have a paralyzing effect on him. He prefers to give in when he should assert himself. He must learn to be more decisive. Very often, he is afraid to use his own power in the face of someone else's aggressiveness. He incorrectly perceives himself to be in a weaker position; he may ultimately give in merely to avoid a fight. Conversely, he is extremely diplomatic and tactful. He likes to accomplish things through quiet persuasion. He dislikes force.

He must fight uncertainty and doubt. He needs to develop confidence and a willingness to stand up for what he believes to be right.

He functions best in a supportive role, guiding the more public person in quiet, unobtrusive, yet essential ways.

HIS PERSONALITY IS A 5

He is a stimulating person. He brightens social gatherings with his fresh and original ideas. His conversation tends to be sprinkled with novelty and wit. He has a quick tongue and charisma. He is probably an excellent salesperson. There is a lot of nervous energy within him looking for an outlet. He loves his freedom, and he sees this life as an ongoing adventure. He is upbeat and optimistic. This is infectious for those he meets. As a result, he inspires others. He has a strong and attractive body, with good muscle tone. His movements are supple, graceful, and athletic.

His bane is that he loves to indulge his senses with food and drink and can easily gain weight. He has an appetite for anything that stimulates the senses -- sex, food, alcohol, and drugs. Discipline is a necessity for him. The negative side of a 5 Personality Number can give rise to an addictive personality.

He likes to dress fashionably and can get away with more colorful clothes. However, he should be aware of the value of quality and the power of modesty.

He is a little irresponsible and quick in satisfying his sensual urges. He is attractive and that, coupled with his innate ability to promote himself, makes it easy for him to satisfy his desire for new and exciting relationships. He has a kind of swashbuckling personality. People see him as the adventurer that he is. They expect the unexpected from him.

He has a quick and eclectic mind. He attracts information from all directions, but he can be a bit superficial, skimming over the surface of a wide diversity of subjects. This may cause him to be a bit of a dilettante. He can get away with it much of the time, but for his own success and happiness, he should try to ground knowledge and deepen his understanding.

His versatility and adaptability make him capable of getting the most out of virtually every opportunity in life. He decides quickly on a course of action and his timing is usually good. He radiates with the potential for success, which attracts others who can further him along his path.
