HOW HIS NAME NUMBERS STACK UP

His Expression number is 3, his Heart's Desire is 2, and his Personality is 1. This arrangement points to a range of talents, especially in business, human resources, counseling, and the arts. He will have many choices for career but may find it challenging to take advantage of them, due to his sometimes scattered 3 influence.

His 3 Expression reflects a creative, innovative, original mind. He has a vivid imagination and the talent to express it. Communication and self-expression are the domain of the 3. However, this playful, impulsive number lacks focus and tends to spread its energies all over the place. It is dynamic and productive, but at the end of the day does not always have a great deal to show for it. Fortunately, his consonants add to 1, giving him a Personality number that is as goal-oriented, ambitious, and focused as the 3 is scattered.

The initial impression he makes is that of someone who can accomplish anything he sets his mind to, and to some extent that is accurate. The 1 is a leader, willing to take chances, and that is a significant part of who he is. However, he is also easily distracted, thanks to the unfocused 3. His challenge is not so much a matter of effort or sacrifice but avoiding unnecessary detours.

His 2 Heart's Desire is a favorable addition to the 1 and 3 combination, because it helps him garner support and working well in a team environment. Both the 1 and 3 tend to be solitary in their pursuits, while the 2 prefers collaboration, although it can be sensitive to criticism. His 2 Heart's Desire is an emotionally charged number that can bring harmony to troubling situations through diplomacy, tact, and an intuitive connection with others.

Obviously, there are conflicting influences here. The core numbers of his name reflect the 3's highly original, creative, and artistic, although undisciplined mind. These traits are motivated and supported by the intuitive, cooperative, emotionally vulnerable energy of the 2, even as the sensitive 2 is not always visible due to his dynamic, ambitious, courageous 1 Personality. All three energies are present, but his creative 3 Heart's Desire dominates and is his pathway to success, whether in a creative field, business, human resources, or counseling. Psychology, social work, and education could also be satisfying career options. In any event, to take full advantage of his talents he must cultivate discipline and grow a thick skin to prevent his sensitivity and vulnerability from holding him back.

In his personal life, he may find that talking his way into, or out of, situations can be tempting. He should also be mindful of gossip, trivial lies, and sarcasm. Also, he may not always consider the consequences of his actions - most 3's tend to live in the moment, driven by impulse, rather than deliberate action. Spontaneity has its place, but forethought before making important decisions is always beneficial.

He will not lack for romantic opportunities, as he is charming as well as sensitive. However, commitment could be a challenge, due to his impetuous nature.

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

A CLOSER LOOK AT HIS 3 EXPRESSION

He is optimistic, inspiring, outgoing, and expressive. People see him as cheerful, positive, and charming; his personality has a certain bounce and verve that so powerfully affects others that he can inspire people without effort. All this upward energy is a symptom of his tremendous creativity. His verbal skills may well lead him into the fields of writing, comedy, theater, and music.

His is the number of self-expression -- rich in imagination and spirit. But he must be careful not to scatter his talents. His bane is that he often lacks discipline and order in his life. He must learn to avoid becoming a "happy- go-lucky" spendthrift, escaping responsibility and commitment. He must learn to concentrate and focus; these are the keys to his success. He has great potential in the arts and areas that require creative solutions to problems. A man with a 3 Expression can perform leaps of imagination, providing unconventional ideas as if they suddenly descended from above. Hard work and focus, however, are the foundation for a successful future.

Though he possesses great verbal skills, his mind tends to see life as pictures rather than in words. He can think abstractly.

Creativity is a sensitive faculty that is often suppressed in childhood. If he lacks the confidence to pursue his ideas, he may divert his abilities into a scattering of trivial pursuits. To overcome this problem, he must make a choice. He must limit his field of vision and the number of activities he engages in and bundle his energies into a single thrust. His challenge is to focus on the area that he loves the most and commit. There, he will find success and a great deal of happiness.

Love, romance, and money are within his reach. He is aided by his friends and admirers. Often people appear out of nowhere to help him in key situations. He must learn to accept the involvement of others in his life. This man is not a loner, nor is he particularly independent. He is social -- he needs an audience and the support of others to fully realize his abilities.

On the downside, he can be superficial, moody, and intolerant. He is emotional and sensitive, sometimes presuming criticism where none was intended. He can also be jealous and gossipy. He must beware of becoming cynical and sarcastic, as these traits can suppress his natural creativity. He must learn to be goal-oriented and take a practical, step-by-step approach to his larger ambitions. He possesses the natural abilities to attain a high degree of excellence.

HIS HEART'S DESIRE IS 2

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.

HIS PERSONALITY IS A 1

He radiates with a dynamic and efficient energy. He appears controlled and capable. He values courage and effort in the face of difficulties and these qualities show. Others can sense that he will not be pushed around.

He should dress in a dignified and correct manner, caring for the details of his appearance. While he may spend most of his time in staid business dress or suits, bright and cheerful colors work well for him. He is fashionable but has his own style. His appearance suffers more than most people when he is overweight. Overweight directly contradicts the type of personality he is trying to project. Straight lines and square corners accent his good physique and enhance his appearance as a leader.

He is recognized as a pioneer; he has his own ideas of how to do things. He is a risk-taker, original and highly creative. He should be wary of appearing too aggressive or unreceptive. He can intimidate people if he does not soften his exterior somewhat. By doing this, he will attract less confident people who will be more willing to approach him with their thoughts and suggestions.
