Flowers & Numerology
Flower essence remedies currently available are very effective, allied to a numerological approach they can be even more beneficial. Many believe numbers to be important in the lives. Not simply those six lucky numbers they choose each week for the lottery but also the ones that determine their destiny, relationships and career paths. According to numerologists, everything is governed by numbers, including our personality traits and future destiny.
Two major systems are in use today, the Cabbalistic and Pythagorean. The later was devised by a Greek mathematician and philosopher Pythagoras in the 6th century BC. Based on calculations of the numerological values of personal names and dates of birth, it is possible to give character readings and predict future trends.
Research shows that flower remedies work on the vibrational level of our emotions and when we ingest these essences they change this frequency into a healthier, more positive one. in addition to the famous Bach flower remedies, there are now over 1500 flower essence formulas from all over the world which have joined Dr Bach's original remedies to help us cope with those everyday stresses.
Tailor Made
It is said that being in touch with the numbers in your life, those that constitute your individual character and personality, you can tailor specific flower essence remedies to suit your individual emotional make-up.
The number of most importance is your life number, based on your date of birth. Simply add together each numeral at this date and reduce it to a single digit, for example: if you were born on September 23rd 1967, adding each digit of your birth date would be come : 2+3+9+1+9+6+7=37 Then add together 3+7=10 then 1+0=1 so then your life number is actually *1*.
To find what any given year may hold, add the day and the month together with the year in question, for example: September the 23rd and the year 1998, we would add 2+3+9+1+9+9+8=41, reducing it again, 4+1=5 making 5 your year number.
