HOW HER NAME NUMBERS STACK UP

Both her Expression and Heart's Desire numbers are 7 and her Personality number is 9 – all odd numbers. People with odd numbers tend to be dreamers and idealists. However, this does not lessen their potential to make great things happen or keep them from becoming successful and happy.

She may experience awkwardness during her childhood; the 7 can seem a little different from other kids. She will be shy and thoughtful. Throughout her life, her intelligence will follow a different path from most people. Both the 7 and the 9 rely on abstract, intuitive methods. She is liable to take plenty of detours and explore esoteric philosophies and fantasies. She is a mental surrealist. She is hungry for knowledge but does not always learn through conventional methods.

The two numbers differ in other areas as well. Although her 9 Personality can make her seem aloof and distant, it is perfectly capable of working with large groups of people. It can even be a good motivator or educator. Politicians, lawyers, and public speakers often carry the 9 in this position. The shy, introverted 7 prefers a smaller environment, and one that is less public. Both her 7 Expression and 7 Heart's Desire are inward focused and may be somewhat awkward socially. The 7 is highly intelligent and a good abstract and intuitive thinker. The main difference between the 9 and the 7 is that the 7 usually prefers to work (and often live) alone. It enjoys a solitary environment. This does not suit the 9; although it may appear a little distant, the 9 is not a loner at all.

Despite their differences, there are areas where the 7 and 9 dovetail nicely. Although social skills are not her strongest asset, both numbers manage to draw people into her circle. However, she prefers the fringe element to those who keep to the middle. Associating with eccentrics and people taking the road less traveled works for both the 7 and the 9. Additionally, the 9 has tolerance and empathy for all cultures and walks of life.

Bringing the attributes of the 7 and 9 into harmony in her personal life may be a challenge, but it offers very interesting career possibilities. Many people who have a 9 among their name numbers focus on helping others. They are often involved with non-profit community or global concerns, such as humanitarian or environmental programs. This satisfies the intellectual 7 as well. Neither influence is likely to choose a job that requires interacting with people for business purposes, such as retail or real estate. The arts would please the 9, including architecture, fashion or interior design, and creative professions that rely heavily on spatial perspective or combining materials and color.

Regardless of the career path she chooses, it will probably be a little offbeat. She might be drawn to religion, metaphysics, medicine, art, or psychology (particularly if it is clinical or research oriented).

Romance may be an awkward pursuit for her; she probably prefers to connect more on an intellectual level. Chances are she rarely notices when someone is interested in her, even if that person has been close to her for some time. She is loyal and able to commit, but the basis needs to be intellectual. Ideally, there should also be a shared connection regarding spiritual, metaphysical, or ethical concerns.

A CLOSER LOOK AT HER 7 EXPRESSION AND 7 HEART'S DESIRE

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

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

She has a strong dislike of the superficial and mundane. She 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 she does. This can cause her to be critical of others, and even cynical about life in general. The more cut off from others she becomes, the more hidden are her motives. Once she develops understanding of people and life, her advice and counsel will be sought by those around her who need her wisdom.

She loves to specialize her knowledge and develop great depth within her field. She is a perfectionist. She should complete her studies early in life and not be driven too hard by a desire to be successful. Let things come at their own pace, be open to opportunity, but remember her 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 her sense of harmony and keep her on the path to peace and balance. The fantasy of the hermit or monk engaged in a life of study and meditation appeals to her.

She has a logical mind. Her analytical skills cause her 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.

In relationships, she tends to keep things business-like and impersonal. She prefers to talk about the facts of a given situation, rather than the cloudier issues of emotions and personal feelings. She distrusts feelings -- both her own and those of others. The whole emotional realm strikes her as unreliable and a bit unnecessary. Her inability to fully understand the emotional aspect of life is her Achilles heel. She is so rational that the unpredictability of the heart frightens and surprises her. Her challenge is to trust. She needs to share her heart with someone. This is a courageous step for her but will result in enormous growth and satisfaction.

The advice here is to make a true connection with another human being. Without it, she may marry out of convenience or to fulfill social expectations, but it will not lead her out of loneliness. The more removed she is from people, the more she risks isolation, bitterness, and a cynical attitude toward life. This choice represents a true crossroads in her development. By sharing herself with others (without compromising her independence and need for privacy) she can cultivate her enormous charm and share her understanding of life. She is a natural teacher and advisor. And the wealth of knowledge she will accumulate in life is meant to be shared with others.

This is not to say that she must compromise on her need for privacy or time spent alone to contemplate life. These are natural aspects of her personality, which are essential to her growth. These characteristics should not be threatening to her spouse but must be understood as fundamental to her being.

HER PERSONALITY IS A 9

She has an impressive and aristocratic bearing. No matter how tall she is, she appears noble and upright. She is very much in control of the image she sends out to others. Many actors, dancers, and other performers have a 9 Personality Number. She is elegant, graceful, and charismatic. Many admire her. She has the kind of stature that pulls people to her or repels them intensely. Some are jealous of her and may seek to belittle her. She may encourage this to some extent by the amount of arrogance she radiates. This is a caution for all 9 Personalities -- they are sometimes aloof and hold themselves above the world. Her challenge is to remain down to earth with her fellow man.

Conversely, she has a great compassion for humanity and wants to dedicate herself to improving the lot of others. She is better when dealing with the trials of the many than the trouble of a single person. She is more capable of working on the grand scale, addressing the needs of society, than on a one-to-one basis.

She is kind and sympathetic, helpful, and compassionate. Behind the controlled and calm facade, she is sensitive, vulnerable, and emotional.

She has excellent taste. There is a good deal of artistic talent in her that shows in her home environment and her clothing. She tends to see herself as a guardian of society, a benevolent leader, guiding and directing her community toward a better world.
