Manual of the Enumeration Part 13

=--m--=t.i.tle, SUCCESS. This word has a value of 17. 1 and 7 are 8. The word G.o.d also has the same value (17-8) and many people make Success their G.o.d, especially the word as spelled $ucce$$.

The color of the Trade Luma or 8 s.p.a.ce is pale Yellow, the color of Wisdom. It requires much Wisdom in your talent, sometimes to make a real success of it. Wisdom is the right-useness (righteousness) of knowledge.

=--n--=The letters under 8 are H, Q and Z, meaning the HIGHEST QUADRATIC ZENITH. The highest double number within the 9 digits is 4 (2 times 4 make 8). 4 represents material things and when they are doubled unto us, we have, or think we have, Success.

=Personally=

=--nn--=A conspicuous 8 in your name or birthdate means that you are likely to have some ability in public speaking or teaching.

It gives you powers of leadership, success, and mental strength.

Remember that all these things are influences, not fates, and that they in turn are more or less offset by other numbers and letters. Faults to be avoided are talking too much about self, headstrong will, stubbornness, and thoughtless moves.

=--p--=The planet of 8 is Saturn [Symbol: Saturn]. The sign of 8 is Scorpio [Symbol: Scorpio]. The letter H in your name has a tendency toward the Higher perception of your body's finest and most spiritual uses; Q in your name is the eccentric, the queer ideas manifested; Z in your name is the strength of body and mind that can be used to advance your earthly success.

=Positions of the Number 8=

=--q--8 as a Soul Path Number= shows that you have chosen a pathway to bring about justice, that one of your chief life aims will be to make justice, even sometimes in cases where it does not directly concern you. While doing this you also will feel at times the pangs of fear at the justice that may be waiting you as well. It will be a feeling that you too must meet a certain great Judge. This Judge may materialize in your life as an avenging reaction to something or someone you have helped to reform.

=--r--8 as a Personality Number= will probably help to put you into the front ranks of commerce, reform movements, leadership in finance or big business. Your Personality will be that of the Judge, the final arbiter, the ranking master of all in banking or commercial circles. Dignity is the strongest trait of your personality and you will win in proportion as you are able to impress people with your dignity without appearing uppish or aloof or too imposing.

=--s--8 as a Predominant Name Number= shows that you will naturally attract to yourself many who will have fine ideas about reform movement but without any executive ability to "put them over." This you will be expected to do and many of your friends will prove to be of little use to you because they desire to use you to further their own pet schemes.

=--t--8 as a Destiny Number= makes you well able to be a great executive, with a bent toward a powerful public personality that will land you among the leaders of the nation, if you use it and keep yourself above the petty things. For this reason you must spend time to complete your education if you possibly can, no matter what your age. Keep in mind and constantly exercise your powers as a leader, at first in whatever ways may appear around you, then reach on to greater things. Your natural Destiny is leadership.

=--tt--Public Appearance Number 8.= This gives you a strong power of speech and you should do your best to get into something of that order, if your other numbers do not show too adverse an influence.

You can begin in a small way, before small groups, watching for criticisms and comments and governing yourself accordingly. But do NOT desire mere flattery. The way to stop people flattering you is to make them tell you just WHY your work is good. Study the speaking ability of famous people and read important literature.

=--u--Warning to Number 8.= Do not talk too much. Keep your plans, your ambitions to yourself. It is by exposing your plans thru the desire for praise or approval that you dissipate your "steam" or energy to execute those plans. "Plan your work, then WORK your plan," but do not tell your plan.

[Sidenote: SEVEN PRINCIPLES--ANIMAL PLANE]

=The Application of the Seven Principles to the Animal Plane=

=--v--=FORCE, the First Principle, when applied to the ANIMAL PLANE of Life, results in the taking up of new exercises that you may wish to follow; it results in the use of your body in appearance or in muscle as a form of persuasion to get things done. This leads to POWER in what is called Animal Magnetism.

=--w--=CHOICE, the Second Principle, when applied to the ANIMAL PLANE of Life, results in the right selection of foods, clothes, house and s.e.x. It gives the ability to select the right mate.

This application leads to RICHES of a physical nature, the possession of property and goods in the line of the CHOICE that may be made.

=--x--=ORDER, the Third Principle, when applied to the ANIMAL PLANE, enables one to place the right action in the right time and place. It leads to the tactful handling of the body and the faculties. It makes for nice foods, well served; for nice homes, well appointed; for a careful mate of real fitness to your life and environment. This application leads to WISDOM as to the right time, place and use of all physical things.

=--y--=COHESION, the Fourth Principle, when applied to the ANIMAL PLANE, helps to hold the home together; makes you attractive to business partners and a.s.sociates; makes people want to work with you and for you. It leads to STRENGTH of your body and your physical collections of things and possessions. When you develop the COHESION in your ANIMAL PLANE you give the appearance of being well-built and well able to take care of yourself.

=--z--=DISCARD, the Fifth Principle, when applied to the ANIMAL PLANE, enables you to cast off undesirable foods, undesirable clothes and living quarters and even an undesirable person, though they may claim the ties of relationship. In fact the casting off of undesirable relatives is the hardest test of this Principle of DISCARD. This Principle is also much needed in changing one's life from an undesirable or low tendency to a higher one. DISCARD is a constant but little understood Principle in Life. It is the hardest to understand and to operate of any of them. Quite generally we do not know when we need it on the ANIMAL PLANE, because of our love of ease and our aversion to change. We feel, usually, that what has been good enough up to now, should be good enough further on. We come to HONOR when we know and use the Fifth Principle, DISCARD.

=--a--=TRANs.m.u.tATION, the Sixth Principle, when applied to the ANIMAL PLANE, helps you to make the unlovely into the lovely. It trans.m.u.tes food into muscle and brain; a house into a home; a woman into a wife or sweetheart; a man into a husband or lover.

This application causes the ANIMAL PLANE part of the human life to arise toward the MIND PLANE, the next logical step. The right use of the Principle of TRANs.m.u.tATION, without suppression, is the only answer to the s.e.x question. Any right application of TRANs.m.u.tATION leads to GLORY.

=--b--=SPIRITUALITY, the Seventh Principle, can be only indirectly applied to the ANIMAL PLANE through the MIND PLANE.

This will be explained in the next lesson, after the Number 9 (page 94, paragraph g).

=ASTRAL CLa.s.sIFICATION=

=Princ.i.p.al Planet Mars= [Symbol: Mars]

=--e--=Mars [Symbol: Mars] is the planet of fire, energy and expansion. It gives you a disposition that is ardent, active, positive, impulsive and impetuous. You are a lover of freedom and independence, and cannot endure restraint, confinement or delay.

You are generous and frank, an admirer of openness, bravery and courage, both physical and moral. You have much self-confidence, and are usually able to hold your own easily, being prompt in word and action. You need to beware of being too rash and headstrong, for you are rather inclined to be aggressive and self-willed; and you are likely to bring many troubles upon yourself through this. You have a good deal of pride, which is easily wounded, and you do not find it easy to remain cool and self-restrained under provocation. You are an active and energetic worker and can accomplish much in a short time, and you have it in you to become very practical and capable in the world if you exercise a little self-discipline.

[Sidenote: SCORPIO [Symbol: Scorpio] SUB-LUMA]

=--f--=Mars [Symbol: Mars] is the planet of fire, energy, impulse and action. Its position in the sign indicates the channel through which these qualities will flow. Mars [Symbol: Mars] is the princ.i.p.al planet for Scorpio [Symbol: Scorpio] Oct. 23 to Nov. 21, and for Aries [Symbol: Aries], Mar. 20 to April 19.

Preferable Jewel Topaz Colors best to use and wear Crimson, Dark Red Most Advantageous Day Tuesday Biblical Belongs to the Tribe of Dan Bible References Gen. 49:1, 17, 18. Deut. 33:22

=--h--=Scorpio [Symbol: Scorpio] is the eighth sign of the Zodiac, a fixed and watery sign, conferring on those born under its influence a psychic nature, and a love of the mystical. You are impulsive, irratic, extreme, independent, and very energetic.

Exercise your energy to the utmost in the interest of higher use, and the world will be the better for your efforts. You have a high and n.o.ble character, and your word can always be depended upon. You must learn to look ahead with confidence, not fear; do not court trouble by antic.i.p.ating it; it will be time enough to cross your bridge when you come to it. You are very affectionate, capable of giving much love, and you demand a great deal in return. You ought to succeed in business, but not in the regular channels, something a little out of the ordinary for you. The indications are that you will initiate something entirely new and original which will be the basis of your future success.

=--j--=You feel very deeply and love pa.s.sionately; you give yourself too freely, and must conserve these energies more. You are intuitive, and should trust your impressions more. Your const.i.tution is strong and can stand very severe and protracted strains before breaking up, having good generative force, which if conserved, protects you from ill health. Scorpio [Symbol: Scorpio] is a vital sign, and governs the excretory system. The influence of the stars, point to a long journey, which you will be called to take later on in life; it will be made necessary by your position and business connections. You will not travel by water, and during this trip you will hear of the death of a near relative; you will meet with success and make many friends, one of whom will prove treacherous, and will not hesitate to slander you, trying to ruin your prosperity in business and love. Yet the ensuing year offers you a very fortunate period, and there will be many advantages to gain.

=--k--=You are attracted strongly to the opposite s.e.x, either in friendship or a.s.sociation, of some sort, or in marriage, and then you are very devoted to your selected partner, and make an ardent and enthusiastic lover, as you are eager and somewhat pa.s.sionate in your attachments. Your marriage partner will probably be of a martial type, positive, active and rather masterful, and will be one who desires to hold the reins and rule the roost. Much depends upon your conditions, surroundings and environments, as to how you will enjoy and appreciate life, for you have acute perceptions and sense things in a peculiar manner, through your feelings. You are mediumistic and very often are impressed with feelings and thoughts that come from others, either on this or the other side of the grave. You must live purely, to be happy.

=Relativity of Scorpio= [Symbol: Scorpio] =and Number 8=

=--l--=Scorpio [Symbol: Scorpio], the eighth Sub-Luma, indirectly relates to the 8 s.p.a.ce, the Trade Luma. There are but few persons that can defeat a Scorpio [Symbol: Scorpio] person in argument or excel them at their business. The turning of the s.e.x instincts of Scorpio [Symbol: Scorpio], the Loins, to business, nearly always creates a successful business person and a worthy occupant of the Trade Luma (8).
