A Fascinating Journey into Numerology and Healing
By Diane Hayden, PhD
rom ancient times, each day of the week has been associated with a planet. The day you were born gives you a spe- cial link with the planetary ruler of that day. I was born on a Thursday, which represents Jupiter. Jupiter is the God of the skies and represents everything that is spacious and inclusive; strengths of those born on Thursday are generosity, wisdom, and zest for life.
F Through ancient wisdoms, numerology
can derive a wealth of information about a person based on birth name and birthdate. I had the pleasure of sitting down with Zahid Hossain to discuss numerology and astrol- ogy and have an Astro-Palmistry reading.
Zahid was born into a noble Ben- gali/Indian family of Nawabs and several generations of famous healers, astrologers, and palmists. Zahid showed signs of having inherited his forefathers’ intuitive meta- physical abilities early in life, when he gave his fi rst intuitive reading at the age of eight for a young police offi cer in his father’s precinct. All that he predicted came true.
Fast forward many years. The intense pressure of a corporate position caused Za- hid to have three heart attacks, and his fi nal wake-up call came when he had a near- death experience in the surgery required by his last heart attack. His guiding spirits made it clear to him he was to return and complete his life’s mission.
My session with Zahid was probably the most accurate reading I have had in my entire life. The amount of information he gave me was incredible, so I’ve tried to condense the things that stood out for me in terms of what I felt truly resonated (not to say other information was not accurate; however, some of it was predicted for my later years).
Life Path Number
My birthdate is 2/8/1968, so my Life Path total is 7 (2+8+1+9+6+8=34; 3+4=7). The number 7 means my destiny lies with the mental and spiritual; the path of study and the search for life’s meaning. I couldn’t agree more, considering I pursued a PhD and have an obsession with studying metaphysics and spirituality. Zahid told me a certain degree of solitude is necessary for my development. Again, spot on—I’ve gone on silent retreats and I can always tell when my soul needs alone time.
Birth Name Number
The analysis of my name was really fasci- nating, as Zahid explained vowel and con- sonant totals that correspond to what moti- vates me, how I relate to others, and what I want out of life. My vowel total is 5, which means I desire personal freedom and the chance to do new things. I’m often bored with routines and love travel because of the change of scenery and situations. Yup—hit the nail on the head there too! I started my own business because the most important thing to me was the ability to have freedom in my work (when and where I work). I’ve lived in many different places (Los Angeles, NYC, Florida, North Carolina, Georgia, and Maryland), and travel…well, don’t get me started. I still have much to do, but I’ve been all over the US, Europe, Hawaii, Caribbean, and did a two-month cross country trip in the west.
My consonant total is 11, and I’m
shaking my head again because this num- ber has followed me my entire life. I was born at 8:11, got married on May 11, more often than not my hotel room is number 11 or adds up to 11, I see 11:11 or 1:11 on the clock almost daily…it never ends. The
number 11 means that I am an incred- ible visionary—I can dream of creating a revolutionary new way of life and have visions that many can’t comprehend. I’m pretty good at manifesting these things, too. When I was growing up, my mother would always call me a dreamer because of my wild imagination.
My power number (the total of my name and birthdate) is 5. The number 5 sig- nifi es a life of freedom, variety, and change. Always open to new experiences, I seek out the curious and unusual—yes, you can fi nd me on a ghost tour in any given city or chasing UFOs in Sedona. I am uncon- ventional, unpredictable, full of surprises, and excel at doing the unexpected. Ask my friends: I’m the one to show up at the door on Halloween in full costume and makeup, toting a pre-made cocktail to share. Or I’m planning a bar crawl with games we have to play or dares to complete to win a prize.
Life Challenges
Zahid told me about the challenges I will meet in my life and when to expect them. My fi rst minor challenge number is 6, which usually crops up before age 30. The number 6 means I had to shoulder responsibility beyond my years. My father passed away when I was only 27, and I had to help my mother with many things while also dealing with that grief.
My second minor challenge number is
2, which relates to aspects of my character I need to work on between ages 35 and 62. With a 2, the task is to develop confi dence in myself and build a thicker skin so I can hold my own in relationships with others, and my extreme sensitivity can make me shy away from diffi cult situations in my personal relationships. I totally agree with both these
