~first~, you have a 6 Expression, a 1 Heart's Desire, and a 5 Personality. When it comes to competitive rivalry, the 5 and 6 are like conjoined twins with very different interests. For that reason, you probably spend a good deal of your energy trying to find a compromise between these two opposing sides.

Your 6 Expression is compassionate, stable, protective, self-sacrificing, and very much like a doting parent to those you care about. Conversely, your 5 Personality is rebellious, freedom loving, irresponsible, adventurous, and thrives on chaos and change. The conflict is obvious.

There are also less noticeable differences. Motivated by the need to shelter and defend, the possessive 6 tends to meddle in other people's affairs. The 5 favors keeping things light, loose, and superficial.

Your Personality number reflects the outward, surface aspect of your personal make-up. It is the part others notice when you first meet. A 5 in this position means people will initially view you as an unconventional individualist before they recognize the more conscientious, responsible "inner you" (your 6 Expression).

Your Expression number primarily informs your career options. It reveals your talents, abilities, shortcomings and the general goals of your life. A 6 here makes you a good fit for business or education. Medicine and law enforcement could also be favored, although the latter probably includes too many restrictions for someone with a rebellious 5.

The final influence of your core numbers is your 1 Heart's Desire. Since your Heart's Desire rules your likes and dislikes, and suggests what makes you truly happy, you tend to favor this aspect of yourself. You are fortunate that the 1 not only lends you a bold warrior's energy, it also functions as a referee between the 5 and 6. It brings focus and purpose to the mix. The 1 does not take no for an answer. It has the potential to impart a somewhat brute force and is not always gentle or forgiving. Fortunately, the soft, gentle 6 will smooth those edges a little.

People with a 1 Heart's Desire need to feel in control. This makes you very independent. You likely enjoy exploring and spearheading projects. You are a self-starter and should consider freelancing or owning your own business, as neither the 1 nor the 5 make good employees. The 6 lends creativity and artistic talent, so there is also excellent potential in creative fields. Both your 1 Heart's Desire and 5 Personality are suited to the artist's lifestyle.

Your core number combination is one of the few combinations that have a very different effect depending on gender. Women more than men find stability and their niche in the job market more easily and at an earlier age. (The opposite tends to be the case when the Heart's Desire and Personality numbers are reversed.)

In your personal life, you may find it easier to fall in love than to stay in love. Although you are perfectly capable of long-term commitment and loyalty, you may have difficulty recognizing what it is you want in a partner. One side seeks commitment, but the other dislikes anything limiting. It may be that you will find a long-term partner later in life. Your numbers also suggest you will make an excellent parent, if you so choose. Many foster parents and others who devote their lives to the wellbeing of children not their own have this combination.

Now let's look at each of your core numbers individually.
