I'm sure you are a bit puzzled or dismayed after reading the information on the "4"s in Star Signs. So was I when I first read about my birthdate, one of the "8"s. I am married to a "4" and when I read that section and the stuff about the relationship of the 4/8, I was stunned. It really resonated with me as truth. What's more, I found that there were too many 8s and 4s in our lives to be attributed to coincidence - just like Linda said.

Even with that said, I am still not sure how one birhtdate number can influence your whole life. I would put more faith in an astological reading based on my exact time of birth. I also wonder how the Law Of Attraction plays into all of this.

I also had a very vivid dream not long ago where the number 175 was being told to me and echoed many times.
1+7+5=13..... <----- see, are things things odd or what?!?

If you move because of the numbers, try to find a house that adds down to "1". I have read in a few places that the "1" energy works well with "4"s.

I just thought it was so odd that here I am reading this book then all of the sudden I look around me and the numbers directly attahced to me and they are all 4s, to make things even worse and while this is fresh in my mind, I go to pick up a couple things at the grocery store and my bill is 22.00
is like "someone" is having a lot of fun with me LOL

But... as I said, I am not letting this bring me down, all the opposite, I like the challenge.

Maybe discoveries like this are meant to wake us up and help us live our lives more consciously, as artlovesdawn put so beautifully.

One thing I learned, however, is that all this knowledge can have strong effects on one's internal being. Whatever the circumstances of the number, know that it is what you do with yourself that is more important. There are signs everywhere, but this does not command your action. It is quite possible that a 4 and 8 couple could very well cultivate a deeper lOve than any of us have ever experienced, though sages may deem it unlikely.

In Love and Respect,

I read this reply earlier and I just went to put gas on my car, I would have never thought of looking at the pump number but since you put it in my head now I had to pick 11 over 13 LOL

I do have a lot of things turn up with the number 5. On pg 134 it says..

quote:

---

5 is the number of the planet Mercury, ruler of Gemini and Virgo (until the true ruler of Virgo, Vulcan, is discovered).

---

This caught my eye because I am a Virgo. What is the reference to Vulcan? Never heard of that, so I'm curious.

I was born on the 22nd...
So here's what it says in Star Signs on pg. 201 about the number 22.

quote:

---

Submission-and Caution
22 is symbolized by the ancients as a "Good Man, blinded by the folly of others, with a knapsack on his back, full of errors." In the image he seems to offer no defense against a ferocious tiger which is about to attack him. It's a warning number of illusion and delusion. It indicates a good person (or entity) who live's in a fool's paradise; a dreamer of dreams who awakens only when surrounded by danger, when it's often too late. It warns of mistakes in judgement, of placing faith in those who are not trustworthy. If 22 is the birth number, the person it represents should exercise extreme caution and watchfulness (since the birth number cannot be altered) in both career and personal matters. The karmic obligation here is to be more alert, to curb "spiritual laziness," and develop more spiritual agressiveness - to realize your own power to change things, to prevent failure by simply ordaining success. When this personal responsibility is recognized, practiced, and finally mastered, the 22 person can be in control of events, no longer blinded by the folly of others, and will see ideas achieved and dreams realized. Anyone born on the 22nd day of any month needs to carefully read this section about the numbers 4 and 8, beginning on page 211.

---

I have this uncanny ability to trust people I shouldn't, which is stated above about us 22's. And I tend to be a dreamer. I learn by trial and error. And as far as being spiritually lazy..I've always chalked it up to my ADD, but I'll admit, it has some to do with just kind of giving up on what I don't understand. But lately, I'm more spiritually curious.

So it said to read a bit about 4's and 8's.
And what I said above about trial and error made me laugh just now. On pg. 190 it says...

quote:

---

The number 8 vibrates to the planet Saturn. It represents wisdom, learning through experience, stability, patience, and responsibility. 8 is also the number of financial security, caution, restriction, self-discipline and self-control.

---

And then the number 4 on pg. 183 says...

quote:

---

The number 4 vibrates to the planet Uranus. It represents individualism, originality, inventiveness, and tolerance. 4 is the number of unconventional behavior and sudden, unexpected events - also of genius.

---

Without quoting the whole 4 paragraph, it says that it's characteristics applies to those of us born on the 22nd. And I do have to say most of the above sounds like me..

Things that aren't so much like me are
financial security (I suck when it comes to money) caution (not really), self-discipline (nope) and self-control (laughs).
and I'm no genius..

So I have to agree that yes, I am very much the description of the 22 with not so much the the 4's and 8's are more like me.

Don't know if that helps much, but it was educational to me!

btw I'm a...

sun, moon and rising

Thanks, that was fun!
