INTRODUCTION

HOW TO READ YOUR RELATIONSHIP COMPATIBILITY REPORT

When two people are involved in a relationship, they get to know each other more

deeply over time. At first, everything is wonderful and friction is rare. Then, as

time goes by, you get to know other sides of your partner and, undoubtedly,

discover some personality traits you don’t like, and other traits you appreciate.

The more time you spend together, the more you get to know each other. But

even if you consider your relationship almost perfect, you will certainly experience

at least some areas of possible friction.

The purpose of this report is to point out the different personality traits you

possess, and how compatible they are. This report will help you identify those

properties that are, at least to some extent, not compatible, and suggest how to

prevent them from damaging, or dominating, your relationship.

It is important to also keep in mind that you may have some qualities that,

although positive, are not compatible, but that negative traits are almost always a

cause for friction. Therefore, you may find that this Relationship Compatibility

Report is at times more critical and perhaps somewhat harsh - unlike most

readings of this kind. If you feel uncomfortable with that, remember that this

report was designed to throw light on those aspects in your charts that need to be

understood and recognized, because if they are not, they can do a lot more

damage than a few critical remarks in a reading.

Richard and Elizabeth, you will probably encounter some texts such as: “The

compatibility aspect in this area of the chart is already included in other parts of

this report, offset by other conditions or redundant”.

This is done in order to offer a perspective that is as well balanced and clear as

possible, and repeating certain traits would place too much emphasis on them.

Master numbers are also handled somewhat different in a relationship

compatibility report. They are reduced to their single digit values, because it is in

the single digit’s archetype that those personality traits are represented. If a

number that appears in your chart is 11, 22, or 33, and the compatibility refers to

the numbers 2, 4, and 6 respectively, this is not a typo but an indicator that the

compatibility is based on the single-digit sum of your Master number.

You will also find that some numbers normally included in a personal numerology

reading are not included in a relationship compatibility report. This is because the

compatibility between two people is influenced much more strongly -- as much as

Page 4

ninety-five percent -- by the core numbers, than by all the other numbers in the

chart combined. In fact, the lesser numbers in the chart would only muddle the

waters if analyzed in the context of a relationship compatibility report.

Richard and Elizabeth, I hope you will enjoy your Compatibility Report and, more

importantly, I hope you will find this reading to be beneficial to your relationship.

LIFE PATH

If ever there was a moment of total transformation, it was the moment of your

birth. In that instant, you stepped through a door in time into a new reality -- the

reality of human life. The most important number in your numerology chart is

based on the date of your birth, the moment when the curtain goes up in your life.

Even at that moment, you were a person with your own unique character, as

unique as your DNA. Everything that is you existed in potential, much like a play

that is about to begin. Your entire life exists as a potential that has been prepared

for. Richard, you have ultimate freedom to do with your life as you like: To fulfill its

potential completely, or to make some smaller version of yourself. It all depends

upon your effort and commitment. You make the decisions to fulfill, to whatever

extent, the potential life that exists within you. That is your choice. In this sense,

the possible you is implicit during the moment of your birth.

The Life Path number gives us a broad outline of the opportunities, challenges,

and lessons we will encounter in this lifetime. Your Life path is the road you are

traveling. It reveals the opportunities and challenges you will face in life. Your Life

Path number is the single most important information available in your Personality

Chart!

Richard, your Life Path is 20/2

The key word in your nature is peacemaker. Richard, you have the soul of an

artist. You are extremely sensitive, perceptive, and a bit shy. These qualities are

both your strengths and weaknesses, for while you possess enormous sensitivity

to your feelings and those of others, that same sensitivity can cause you to hold

back and repress your considerable talents. Sensitivity and perceptiveness are

among your many fine qualities

Because you intuitively know what people want, or feel, you can be extremely

diplomatic and tactful. You are also patient and cooperative. You work well with

groups and somehow find a way of creating harmony among diverse opinions.

You enjoy music and poetry and require a harmonious environment.

You have an eye for beauty and a fine sense of balance and rhythm. You have

healing capabilities, especially in such fields as massage, acupuncture, physical

Page 5

therapy, and counseling.

However, your sensitivity can also be your downfall. Richard, your extremely

delicate ego bruises easily and can make too much of someone else's

thoughtless remarks or criticisms. Because you get hurt easily, you may tend to

withhold your own thoughts and contributions to the matter at hand. This can

cause you considerable resentment and anger.

Too often, you run from confrontation to avoid a battle.

When you employ your considerable inner strength, you will discover your

enormous power and abilities to direct difficult situations toward your own goals. It

is the awareness of your inner strength that will give you the courage to use your

own personal power when it is needed. You are a sensitive and passionate lover;

your perceptiveness makes you aware of your partner's needs and desires,

which you are able to fulfill with almost magical delicacy.

However, when you feel you have been mistreated or jilted, you can react with

devastating power, sometimes using personal criticisms vindictively. Your

awareness, diplomatic skills, and organizational talents give you the ability to

bring off difficult tasks. You willingly step out of the limelight to facilitate the

success of your endeavor. In truth, you are often the power behind the throne.

However, you do not always receive the credit you deserve for the fine work

you've done, or your role is underestimated and your accomplishments

overlooked. Rather than brood over your losses, you need to confront those who

would make less of your contributions and stand up for your accomplishments.

You need security and comfort, quiet settings, and the company of loved ones.

You are a perfectionist when it comes to your home and work environment.

Richard, you have excellent taste which is obvious in your private surroundings.

You are a fine companion and possess a good sense of humor. Friends seek you

out for your calming and peaceful company. You are a safe haven to other

sensitive people, who recognize your compassion and understanding. When you

have found your niche in life, you have all the talents and intelligence for great

success. Seek out work that allows your sensitive nature to flourish -- be the glue

that binds others together.

Elizabeth, your Life Path is 17/8

Elizabeth, you are gifted with natural leadership and the capacity to accumulate

great wealth. You have great talent for management in all areas of life, especially

in business and financial matters. You understand the material world; you

intuitively know what makes virtually any enterprise work. Your talent lies not with

the bookkeeping or petty management, but with the greater vision, its purpose,

and long range goals.

You are a visionary and a bit reckless. You possess the ability to inspire people

to join you in your quest, but often they are incapable of seeing what you see.

Page 6

Therefore, those around you need your continual guidance, inspiration, and

encouragement. You must prod them into action and direct them along the lines

of your vision.

You attract financial success more than any other Life Path, but effort is

required.

Elizabeth, your challenge in life is to achieve a high degree of detachment, to

understand that power and influence must be used for the benefit of mankind.

Those born with the Number 8 Life Path, who do not understand the real and

relative value of money are bound to suffer the consequences of greed; they run

the risk of losing it all!

You must learn to bounce back from failures and defeats. You have the

character and resilience of a true survivor. It is not uncommon for a person with

your Life Path to experience major reverses, including bankruptcies, financial

failure, but you also have the talent and the sheer guts to make more than one

fortune, and build many successful enterprises. More than most people, your

failures in marriage can be extremely expensive for you.

Despite the difficulties that life presents, you will experience the satisfaction

that comes from material wealth and the power that comes with it.

Business, finance, real estate, law, science (particularly history, archeology,

and physics), publishing, and the management of large institutions are among the

vocational fields that suit you best. You are naturally attracted to positions of

influence and leadership -- Politics, social work, and teaching are among the

many other areas where your abilities can shine.

You are a good judge of character, which aids you well in attracting the right

people to you.

Most 8s like large families and sometimes tend to keep others dependent

longer than necessary. Although jovial in nature you are not demonstrative in

showing your love and affection.

The desire for luxury and comfort is especially strong in you. Status is very

important. You must be careful to avoid living above your means.

Elizabeth, your Life Path treads that dangerous ground where power lies -- and

can corrupt. You may become too self important, arrogant, and domineering,

thinking that your way is the only way. This leads inevitably to isolation and

conflict. The people you run the risk of hurting most are those you love, your

family and friends.

Be careful of becoming stubborn, intolerant, overbearing, and impatient. These

characteristics may be born early in the life of an 8 Life Path, who often learn

these negative traits after suffering under a tyrannical parent or a family burdened

by repressive religious or intellectual dogmas.

Those with the 8 Life Path usually possess a strong physique, which is a

symptom of their inherent strength and resiliency.

Page 7

Your Life Path's compatibility is 2 and 8

Richard and Elizabeth, your Life Path numbers are the most important numbers

in your charts, and, as such, their compatibility is very important to the well-being

of your relationship.

Richard is drawn to Elizabeth in part because Elizabeth has great inner strength

and the kind of personal power that reveals the possibility of worldly success.

Capable and goal-oriented, Elizabeth is a force to be reckoned with.

Elizabeth is attracted to Richard largely because Elizabeth recognizes in Richard

an emotional and spiritual wealth that may well have remained, at least to some

extent, dormant in the life of Elizabeth. Richard lives and experiences life on

many levels. Richard knows the heart and the power of emotions. When brought

together, the two and the eight’s individual innate qualities can produce quite a

balanced relationship.

This is a combination with potential to survive for years and years. However, an

important detail you both must be attentive to, is that the relation between a two

and an eight is often based on illusions, and when such illusions fall apart, the

relationship may crash.

The two sees strength, and thinks it will always be there. The eight sees

romance and the subtle powers of the heart, and thinks it will last forever. Neither

does, of course. Strength eventually dissipates. The heart slowly loses interest.

However, that does not mean this relationship doesn’t stand a chance. It certainly

does. And the key to make it a pleasant, long lasting relationship is to recognize

each other for what you are, beyond the obvious. Richard must learn to love not

only Elizabeth’s strength and capabilities but also Elizabeth’s weaknesses. It is

important that Richard can love Elizabeth as a whole human being. And

Elizabeth, in turn, must learn to love not only the romantic presence, the passion

of the heart Elizabeth craves in Richard, but Richard as a whole human being.

Few combinations tend to give birth to relationships based on illusions as often as

do the two and the eight. But Richard and Elizabeth, don’t forget that this is just

one aspect of the chart. You both have many other qualities to be brought to the

surface, exercised and explored to your mutual benefit. Just keep that in mind,

unite your respective strengths and move on to turn yours into a most pleasant,

rewarding and long lasting relationship.

EXPRESSION

Your Expression number reveals your physical and mental constitution, the

orientation or goal of your life. Some numerologists refer to this number as the

Destiny, because it represents a lifelong target at which you are aiming. You

work at fulfilling this potential every day of your life. Thus, the Expression number

Page 8

reveals your inner goal, the person you aim to be.

The Expression number reveals the talents, abilities, and shortcomings that

were with you when you entered your human body. Your name, and the numbers

derived from it, reveals your development, as well as the talents and issues you

will be working with during this life.

For those for whom reincarnation is an accepted philosophy, the vibration of

your full name can be seen as the totality of your personal evolution, the

experiences, talents, and wisdom accumulated over many life times. Every

experience, no matter how great or small, along this evolutionary path has

influenced your development, and brought you to your current state of being.

The Expression is your being; the Life Path is the major lesson you are

attempting to learn this time around. Time allows the gradual emergence of your

personality. By reading the Expression number below, you will come to

understand your basic nature and the abilities and issues inherent in your being.

Richard, your Expression is 15/6

Richard, you are a loving and caring individual with a tendency to put the needs

of others before those of yourself. You are responsible and trustworthy with a

high regard for justice and honesty. Duty will follow you all your life and

sometimes feel a little too much of a burden.

You are artistic. Harmony and beauty are high on your list of priorities. You

have musical talent but the creative talents of a 6 are sometimes left undeveloped

or suppressed as a result of your tendency to sacrifice your time and pleasure to

the service of others. You are highly creative in all areas of life, particularly the

visual. You are also a talented business person and can work methodically

toward the realization of your goals.

You have a natural gift with flowers, gardens, and animals. Your love of

children has caused numerologists to dub you the "Cosmic Mother or Cosmic

Father". The very shape of the 6 resembles and symbolizes "Pregnant with

Love".

You are a natural counselor and healer. But you must be careful not to

interfere with the freedom of others. You are recognized as an idealist, mainly

regarding marriage, friendships and humanity.

The 6 is the most balanced of all numbers, but also contains within itself the

greatest paradoxes. It is as if opposite tendencies were tenuously poised.

Because of its gift for harmonizing these opposites, you are uniquely qualified to

handle and integrate contradictions within yourself. It is for this reason that 6s so

frequently find themselves in the role of healers or counselors, creating a peace

between opposing points of view, or internal conflicts within the self.

While you can be very idealistic, there may also be a temptation to acquire

beautiful objects by improper means. You must also guard against other

Page 9

meddlesome behavior and domestic tyranny, or always having to have your own

way in a family dispute.

Conversely, you have it within yourself to understand another person's

dilemma and come up with a creative solution. Your natural ability to give comfort

and warmth can smooth over hurt feelings like a healing balm. You attract love

and appreciation. And rightly so, because you give the same in return.

You make an outstanding teacher (especially young children or special

education), healer, counselor social worker, psychologist, artist, designer,

gardener, florist, and farmer. You can be successful in business, especially

those that involve dealing with people.

Elizabeth, your Expression is 12/3

Elizabeth, you are optimistic, inspiring, outgoing, and expressive. People see

you as cheerful, positive and charming; your personality has a certain bounce and

verve that so powerfully affects others that you can inspire people without effort.

All of this upward energy is a symptom of your tremendous creativity. Your

verbal skills may well lead you into the fields of writing, comedy, theater, and

music.

Yours is the number of self-expression -- rich in imagination and spirit. But you

have to be careful not to scatter your talents. Your bane is that you often lack

discipline and order in your life. Avoid becoming a "happy- go-lucky" spendthrift,

escaping responsibility and commitment. You must learn to concentrate and

focus.

These are the keys to your success. You have great potential in the arts and

areas that requires creative solutions to problems. You are able to 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 you possess great verbal skills, your mind tends to see life as pictures

rather than in words. Yet, you have the ability to think abstractly.

Creativity is a sensitive faculty that is often suppressed in childhood. If you lack

the confidence to pursue your ideas, you may divert your abilities into a scattering

of trivial pursuits.

To overcome this problem, you must make a choice. Elizabeth, you have to

limit your field of vision and the number of activities you engage in, and bundle

your energies into a single thrust. Focus your life; choose the area that you love

the most, and commit. There, you will find success. And a great deal of

happiness.

Love, romance, and money are within your reach. You are aided by your

friends and admirers. Often people appear out of nowhere to help you in key

situations. Elizabeth, you have to learn to accept the involvement of others in

Page 10

your life. You are not a loner, nor are you particularly independent. You are social

-- you need an audience and the support of others to fully realize your abilities.

On the down-side, you can be superficial, moody, and intolerant. You are

emotional and sensitive, sometimes presuming criticism where none was

intended. You can also be jealous and gossipy. Beware of becoming cynical and

sarcastic. These traits can suppress your natural creativity.

Be goal-oriented. This is a practical, step-by-step approach to your larger

ambitions. You possess the natural abilities to attain a high degree of excellence.

Your Expression's compatibility is 6 and 3

More than any other number in your chart, your Expression number reflects who

you are as a person. Earlier, you read about the Life Path number and how

important that number is in your chart. However, the Life Path number reflects

“the path you walk on,” and should be seen more as a powerful influence than as

a part of your personality makeup. Your Expression number on the other hand,

reflects a deeper part of you. It is more difficult to overcome possible negative

traits you may have recognized in yourself when they are found in this part of the

chart, than when they are found under the Life Path description.

It can’t be emphasized too much how important it is to realize that numbers in

different areas of the chart affect you differently, even when it is the same

number. Sometimes, you may read something that seems to directly contradict

earlier statements. Yet, if you take the time to think about them carefully, you will

probably recognize that you, as a human being, are extremely complex and full of

the same contradictions. This is simply the way we are. You may be organized

in one area of your life, while chaos rules in another area. You may be tactful and

sensitive in one setting, and direct and confrontational in another situation.

You make up a creative couple, where Elizabeth has the kind of creativity and

sense of humor everybody loves and Richard the warmth and self-sacrificing love

for the friends and family members that so easily wins hearts over. You are

probably a popular couple, with an active social life and a large circle of friends.

Richard has the innate ability to draw from others the kind of loyalty and devotion

that lasts a lifetime. The number six is often called the motherhood-, or

fatherhood, number. Healing and comforting is second nature to Richard, who

will spread it around indiscriminately.

Elizabeth, the number three is also a very giving and popular number, more

playful and creative, but less grounded and disciplined. Your energy is less

directed and more impulsive. You don’t have a lot of patience dealing with

emotional issues. So, you can be a great shoulder for people to cry on, as long

as the crying doesn’t last for more than about two minutes, probably because

Page 11

you’re usually optimistic and lighthearted nature tends to expect from others the

same elastic response to difficult times, which is so much part of your make up.

Though invaluable, Elizabeth, the energy you bring in is sometimes not enough.

The six makes Richard all heart. Richard feels very strongly and very deeply,

which can also cause Richard to be more affected by matters of the heart than

you feel sensible.

Surprisingly, however, the most common pitfall when a three and a six are found

in this part of the chart is not the lack of emotional involvement native to the three,

but the possibly excessive emotional bonds experienced by the six. Richard, you

have a tendency to become so involved with the well being of those you love that

they may start feeling smothered. You want to do everything for everybody, and

Elizabeth can become disenchanted with that, since Elizabeth needs space and

freedom, and does not like to be guided and protected by anyone else.

Richard, it is important that you don’t try to take Elizabeth under your wings,

thereby making Elizabeth feel that there is no room to move or air enough to

breathe.

HEART'S DESIRE

Your Heart's Desire is the inner you. It shows your underlying urge, your true

motivation. It reveals the general intention behind many of your actions.

Consequently, it dramatically influences the choices you make in life. The Heart's

desire is seen as part of the larger picture, called the core numbers, which

includes the Life Path, Expression, Day you were born, and Personality. But

each points to a different aspect of you.

The Expression number reveals your talents and abilities, and your general

direction in life. The Life Path is the central lesson you came into the world to

learn. The Day you were born is very closely connected to your Life Path. It

reveals specific talents you possess, which will be helpful to you in dealing with

your Life Path. The Personality reveals how people tend to see you. It also

demonstrates what characteristics you are projecting to the world. The Heart's

Desire demonstrates the identity of the soul that joined the earth -- you, the

spiritual being.

Richard, your Heart's Desire is 12/3

Richard, you love a good time. You are generally happy, friendly, and outgoing.

You have a gift for gab. You are very witty, creative, and playful. You inspire and

entertain people. You are considered by many a great companion.

Many outstanding comedians have this Heart's Desire. You have a good

mental and emotional balance and there is little that gets you down.

Page 12

You have a gift for self expression and are drawn to the verbal arts -- writing,

acting, singing, and poetry. You may have a great talent in one of these areas. If

your creativity is blocked or suppressed, you tend to daydream and fantasize.

Your imagination needs a constructive outlet; otherwise, it may run away with

you.

At the same time, you may have great difficulty expressing your deeper feelings

and important personal thoughts. You prefer to stay on the surface, entertaining

people with your wit.

If you fail to deal honestly with your inner nature, you may succumb to

compulsive talking. Such behavior may be merely a way of siphoning off

emotional energy that is building beneath your surface. Your deeply felt emotional

life cannot be avoided or suppressed. But you possess the talent to channel

these feelings into highly creative and artistic form. Art and self-expression are

your outlets.

Richard, you need discipline to make full use of your abilities. Too often, you

may scatter your energies in many directions, beginning projects that are never

finished and never really succeeding in anything.

You success depends on your ability to commit to your work and to see it

through to completion. You have so much creativity and inspiring upward energy

that you are in desperate need of an anchor. Hard work and discipline serve this

purpose and bring out the best in you.

Because you are gifted with such a sparkling personality, you are tempted to

stay on the surface and play with life. You are confident and love the attention

others give you, but these characteristics can lead to vanity and self-absorption.

Richard, you have the potential to live a very full and successful life thanks to

your talent for artistic self expression. The key to your success is a balance

between the creative forces and self-disclose.

Elizabeth, your Heart's Desire is 17/8

Elizabeth, you want success in its fullest meaning -- wealth, power, and

material comforts. You have an enormous ambition. You dream of big projects,

great undertakings, and rewards.

You are a visionary. You see the horizon and the promise. In general, you also

see the methods necessary to fulfill that promise. But you are not especially

good with details; you need others to help you deal with the smaller parts of the

picture. Your challenge is to make full use of the full spectrum of your abilities, as

indicated by your other core numbers. In the same way, you must bring forth the

best from others and orchestrate their talents toward the realization of your vision.

In short, you must lead by example, demonstrating the standard for commitment,

determination, and excellence.

All of this requires effort on your part. You will meet with obstacles and

Page 13

difficulties. Your determination and commitment will be tested. But you have the

power to overcome every obstacle you face and accomplish the goal you've set

for yourself.

Elizabeth, your task in life is to learn to use power in refined and elevated ways.

The expression and use of power is directly related to one's personal evolution.

The more primitive uses of power rest with violence and the threat of deprivation.

The higher expressions depend upon your capacity to care for and nourish the

people and projects in your charge, giving each exactly what is needed at the

appropriate time and in appropriate amounts.

You have a creative mind and an unusual approach to business and

problem-solving.

You need to cultivate your ability to evaluate others.

It is essential for you to be involved in a project that challenges you and offers

the potential for rewards. When you are uninvolved or unoccupied with a

worthwhile task, you can become deeply despondent, depressed, and frustrated.

You are the perfect example of the old cliche, "Idle hands are the devils

workshop." Without a challenge, you can lose balance in life and become selfish,

cruel, and even self-destructive. Disappointments become shattering, causing

terrible consequences in self-image and self-love.

Perspective is everything for you. You have a natural talent for balancing the

spiritual and material planes.

Elizabeth, you need to cultivate courage and stamina. Courage is a choice.

You need to decide to be brave in the face of fear. A balanced 8 is among the

most powerful and satisfying of numbers. It is the spirit of the true survivor, able

to bounce back and achieve a greater victory.

Your Heart's Desire's compatibility is 3 and 8

Compatibility of the Heart’s Desire numbers is very important in a relationship -

few relationships last beyond the initial stage if the Heart’s Desire numbers are

not compatible.

Richard and Elizabeth, the three and the eight affect one in very different ways.

So, when these two numbers appear together in this part of the chart, the couples

are compatible in some areas, incompatible in others. Richard brings in the

creative, somewhat scattered, but yet inspiring and uplifting energy. Elizabeth is

more ambitious, goal-oriented and focused. You are both energetic and capable

of turning dreams into reality, even though with different approaches. Quite often,

this combination is seen between business partners, or long-time friends who

start a business together. In that environment, Richard would be the initial

creative source, while Elizabeth would be the visionary. Together, you could do

very well.

Page 14

You are also both good communicators. Richard has the ability to clarify an issue

with a sense of humor and pinpoint precision. Elizabeth takes a more practical

approach by simply grabbing the bull by the horns.

In many ways, Richard and Elizabeth, you complement each other and are quite

compatible, as revealed in this part of the chart. But, just like in any other number

combination, there are areas where problems may arise.

Elizabeth is ambitious, practical and capable of sustained effort for a long period

of time in order to reach a goal. Richard also has the energy and drive needed to

make things happen, but Richard may drop a project when it is no longer

interesting or when other projects become more important. This can be upsetting

to Elizabeth, who feels that a commitment, such as a set goal, should be honored

at any rate - - anything less is unacceptable to Elizabeth.

Richard, on the other hand, will sometimes feel that Elizabeth’s priorities are too

much directed to Elizabeth’s own needs and expectations. Elizabeth can be

quite demanding, while Richard is more easy-going - - if something doesn’t work

out, oh well, let’s try something else. Elizabeth doesn’t accept that and feels that

the whole purpose of setting a goal is to overcome the obstacles one is bound to

encounter.

In the end, the issue comes down to respect. The three and the eight have such

different views as to what is important in life that, unless they learn to respect

each other’s needs and expectations, the relationship will not last long. However,

more often than not, the three and the eight get along quite well.

PERSONALITY

Your Personality number is derived from the consonants of your full name at

birth. Your Personality is like a narrow entrance hall to the great room that is your

true nature. It is those aspects that you feel comfortable sharing with people at

the outset of a relationship. With time and trust, you invite others into the deeper

aspects of your nature; you reveal more of who you really are, in effect, your

Heart's Desire, Expression, and so on.

Your Personality number often serves as a censoring device, both in terms of

what you send out, as well as what you allow to approach. It discriminates in the

kinds of people and information you let enter your heart and mind. For this

reason, your Personality is usually much more narrow and protective in its

definition than the real you. It can screen out some of what you do not want to

deal with -- people or situations -- but it also welcomes those things that

immediately relate to your inner nature.

Your Personality number also indicates how others perceive you. No one can

be objective about himself or herself. Even our closest friends and relatives have

trouble describing how they see us.

Page 15

Richard, your Personality is 12/3

Richard, you are highly attractive. Many men with a 3 Personality are very

handsome; women are often strikingly beautiful.

Your vibration is full of life. You are uplifting, inspiring, and charming. You are a

fun person to be around. Your wit and sparkling personality make you the life of a

party.

You are extroverted and optimistic. You appreciate fine clothing and jewelry,

and enjoy dressing up a bit. You like glamour, and are sought after by the

opposite sex.

You are a romantic. Richard, you fall in and out of love rather quickly. You are

affectionate and giving.

Do not let your charm be an incentive to play too much. Work at developing

deep and lasting relationships. You have to avoid scattering your attention for

popularity.

You can be flippant about commitments and may dramatize or exaggerate.

Your wit can cause you to rely too much on superficial, humorous

conversation.

You have a distinct "lucky streak" that attracts many opportunities throughout

your life. You also have a knack of promoting yourself as well as inspiring others.

When backed up by hard work and self-disciple, these qualities almost ensure

your success.

Elizabeth, your Personality is 13/4

Elizabeth, you radiate reliability and consistency. People trust you and feel

secure with your judgment. You are seen as a cornerstone of a business and are

relied upon to do your work efficiently and expertly.

You have strength and respectability. You tend to dress in a utilitarian manner,

concerned mostly with convention, practicality, durability, and price. You present

yourself as someone who values correctness, control, and precision.

All of this stems from the fact that your most prized characteristic is your work.

You want to be judged on the basis of your performance, rather than your

appearance.

You are frugal and have learned to respect a dollar. You are concerned about

the security of your future and those you love. However, this may appear to

others as a bit too austere.

You tend to wear earth colors and conventional attire. You could benefit by

putting a little flair in your dress. Wear more uplifting colors. Loosen your dress

with less severe lines. If you wear a brown suit, include a bright tie or some

jewelry.

You are a family person. You love the intimacy, consistency, and the security a

Page 16

family provides. You are a good provider and protector. But family members

may take your efforts for granted.

Elizabeth, you are a true patriot. You love your country and are an integral part

of your community. Your consistency and adherence to your well-laid plans

usually pays off in a comfortable and secure future.

Your Personality's compatibility is 3 and 4

Quickly recognized when two people first meet, not many relationships even get

started unless the Personality numbers are compatible.

This is both a very promising as well as a very difficult combination. Richard

reveals a fun-loving, optimistic side, a creative, playful, perhaps even childlike

nature. Richard demonstrates to have faith in life and is confident that things will

work out, no matter what. In addition, Richard has a natural, intuitive talent to go

with the flow and escape pitfalls almost effortlessly. Elizabeth, on the other hand,

is much more grounded, practical, and has a hands-on approach to life.

Elizabeth feels that discipline and focus, responsibility, dependability and duty are

the requirements to create a life of comfort and contentment. From one

perspective, this makes for a nicely balanced relationship. Richard’s approach

works for Richard. Elizabeth has seen the fruits of effort and discipline and

knows there is safety in having at least some control. As long as life doesn’t

throw a monkey wrench in your situation, this can be a harmonious, very

satisfying relationship.

But when life becomes a challenge, when problems - especially practical,

material, worldly problems - come up, Richard and Elizabeth, this combination of

three and four is one of the least prepared to deal with it. Richard, you may well

start resenting Elizabeth for taking such a hard, grab-the-bull-by-the-horns

approach, since Elizabeth is not the type of person who backs away and watches

things fall apart. In addition, it is important that you bear in mind that we are

talking about problems that did not arise between you, from your relationship, but

from outside, issues like a shortage of money, the loss of a job, an expensive

illness, or some other unfortunate shift.

Elizabeth will be tempted to look at Richard and question the amount of effort and

sacrifice Richard is investing during this difficult time. Blame will feed resentment

and anger, and soon, instead of forming a combined front to overcome the

obstacle, you will turn against each other.

When that happens, Richard and Elizabeth, you will need to step back and realize

that, although you may not understand what motivates your partner to respond so

differently from what you believe is the correct and required approach, you should

not judge. Richard, you may not believe that Elizabeth makes any sense. You

may well feel that all that effort is misdirected, perhaps even detrimental to a

Page 17

positive outcome, but Elizabeth needs that effort. Elizabeth needs to feel that

there is some control.

On the other hand, Elizabeth may blame Richard for not doing enough, which

may be true. On the surface, Richard may seem to be backing away from the

problem. Richard does not focus on the issue itself as much as on whatever is

needed to make it go away, or, at least, to make it bearable. Richard will bring in

the optimism and the motivation to go on. Richard will point to the light at the end

of the tunnel, no matter how tiny or seemingly far away, and when everyone else

is ready to give up, Richard will bring in the much needed energy and get you

back on your feet. Richard is invaluable during such a time. And that, too, takes

effort.

So, just remember that, although difficult, yours is also a very promising

combination, and the key to making the most of it lies on not trying to judge each

other, but on combining your many individual qualities.
