Pythagoras, ancient Greek philosopher and mathematician, taught that numbers have mystical qualities.
“All is number.” Pythagoras
Considering the symbolism of numbers is all around you, it’s no surprise numerology is one of the most popular forms of divination.
You’ve probably seen day of birth numerology, and if you’re skeptical, we understand. Our findings show us that instead of cherry-picking single factors such as the day of birth, pattern recognition involving multiple factors is the most reliable way to interpret personal fate, personality, and compatibility.
Still, if you possess above-average psychic ability, it’s perfectly acceptable to use even just the month and day (or just the day) of birth as touchstones to glean insight about an individual. Just realize there’s a lot more to it, and it’s best to confirm any notions with a more comprehensive approach.
The full date of birth is like the mere entry way and foyer of a massive castle spanning several square miles, the rest of the castle being the patterns that stem from the complete birth data (full date of birth, exact time, location, and full legal birth name). We regularly update and expand our systems of analysis involving comprehensive astrology and numerology; it’s a constant and endless process with the ultimate goal being greater precision in prediction, and personality and compatibility analyses.
As a novice, you can start employing basic numerology immediately.
To start understanding the symbolism behind the root numbers 1 through 9 (which are the basis of all numbers), and the process (fadic addition, e.g., 656 = 6+5+6 = 17= 1+7= 8) to yield root numbers, please see the number symbolism guide in this article. https://spiritualgrowthnow.com/keepseeingsamenumberoverandover/
Starting with the full date of birth and using the date 2-17-1984, you’ll notice the Full Date Total is 5 (2+17+1984= 2003= 2+0+0+3= 5). This factor is referred to as the “Life Path” in modern numerology. It’s comparable to the Sun sign in astrology, and it’s a good place to start. Next, you could look at two of the basic early life energies, which are 2 (the month) and the sum of the month and day, 1 (2+17= 19= 1+9=10= 1+0=1).
Each number includes a balanced, under-balanced, and over-balanced form. Generally, the subject experiences the early life cycles (such as the 2 listed in the above paragraph) more often as over or under-balanced instead of balanced. It’s not easy in youth to fully capitalize on opportunities and cope with challenges.
Keep in mind that everyone’s overall numerology patterns include a mix of more than one ruling number that represents unique personal character and timing. However, a single number heavily recurring throughout the patterns can symbolize the subject frequently seeming a lot like that specific number.
Note: the energy of single factors like the month of birth is supported or mitigated by the energy of the overall patterns, but you can still get an idea by considering single factors, particularly if you are exceedingly intuitive.
Below, we list the under-balanced and over-balanced forms of each root number as they relate to love life.
1: The subject is too passive (under-balanced), or too aggressive (over-balanced) when it comes to love and sex, and opportunities tend to be meager. Solitude is common, as are brief romances. However, enduring romantic connections can occur with opportune collective personal timing.
2: He or she is too unresponsive (under-balanced) or too sensitive (over-balanced). Love life opportunities tend to appear more frequently than average, and the subject may be involved in more than one at the same time. 2 tends to be associated with fewer than average negative love life scenarios, but duality leading to strife and contention can occur.
3: Guilt, shame, and regret are hallmark negative traits of the 3. So many love life opportunities in youth may find him or her taking on too much, yielding hurt feelings and broken hearts. Another negative 3 love life related energy is an impossible to fill longing for love, or longing for a lost love. The subject needs to keep in mind that nostalgia is largely an illusion, and that he or she needs to strive instead to make the most of his or her situation now instead of constantly looking in the rear-view mirror.
4: Low energy, and lack of creativity and passion top the list of negative love life related traits associated with 4. Extreme over-balanced 4 energies include a rigid attitude toward intimacy, being too physical (like a machine) and crude, and not being heart-centered. Although opportunities tend to be limited, those that appear tend to endure.
5: Opportunities abound for those who possess strong 5, but he or she goes through lovers too quickly. The grass is always greener elsewhere for him or her, and he or she never stays long before jumping to the next option. Or, as an under-balanced energy, dependence and refusing to leave a relationship after it’s over can be a habit. The subject learns about variety, over-indulgence, and possibly recklessness.
6: The downside of the six involving relationships includes being non-committal, sluggish, and apathetic (under-balanced), and possessive, rigidly stubborn, and excessively idealistic (over-balanced). Opportunities are likely to be plentiful, yet an uncompromising and even unforgiving attitude is likely to interfere. Romantic fantasies crash hard upon the rocks of reality.
7: Other than unconditional and spiritual love, 7 is one of the numbers least associated with a happy love and romantic life. Intellectual, technical and, or spiritual pursuits interfere with love life matters. Actively seeking love under the 7 tends to yield disappointment. The subject is of an unusual wavelength, as if they are mentally on a different planet. However, if both are under and, or of the 7, then it can be a nice match.
8: Rebelliousness, lack of compassion, desire for control, and aggression are par for the course in regard to over-balanced 8 energy and love life. He or she may bully lovers, or at least be confrontational or manipulative. Under-balanced energies find the subject being passive, insecure, and cunning. Love life opportunities aren’t plentiful under the 8. Meeting a match at work is fairly common, yet so is an expensive breakup.
9: Past life love coming back into the subject’s life is common under early life 9 energy, yet it ends sooner than expected. It occurs usually to finish the chapter started in a past life. The downside of 9 can be too much of a good thing, difficult break-ups, resentment, and emotional volatility. 9 can include the best life has to offer, but it frequently includes steep challenges too, in regard to love life.
Even though comprehensive astrology and numerology are disciplines that demand as much time to learn as any foreign language, introductory, basic number mysticism can give you a remarkable glimpse into human personality and compatibility.

Words of Wisdom: Edgar Cayce
Edgar Cayce (1877-1945), also known as the “sleeping prophet” and the “father of holistic medicine,” is the most documented psychic of the 20th century. Cayce gave psychic readings to thousands of people over 40 years while in an unconscious state, diagnosing illnesses and revealing past lives and prophecies yet to come.
The majority of Cayce’s readings are about holistic health and the treatment of illness. People from all walks of life and beliefs found and still find healing through his information.
In addition to information related to health, Cayce also gave information through his readings about reincarnation and philosophy, dream interpretation, psychic phenomena and ESP, and prayer, meditation, and spiritual growth.
Below are words of wisdom from Edgar Cayce.
“You can never lose anything that really belongs to you, and you can’t keep that which belongs to someone else.” Edgar Cayce
“There is progress whether ye are going forward or backward! The thing is to move!” Edgar Cayce
“When ye are prepared for a thing, the opportunity to use it presents itself.“ Edgar Cayce
“Dreams are today’s answers to tomorrow’s questions.” Edgar Cayce
“For, he that expects nothing shall not be disappointed, but he that expects much – if he lives and uses that in hand day by day – shall be full to running over.” Edgar Cayce
“It is thought and feeling which guides the universe, not deeds.” Edgar Cayce
“Don’t feel sorry for yourself if you have chosen the wrong road, turn around.” Edgar Cayce
“This is the first lesson ye should learn: There is so much good in the worst of us, and so much bad in the best of us, it doesn’t behoove any of us to speak evil of the rest of us. This is a universal law, and until one begins to make application of same, one may not go very far in spiritual or soul development.” Edgar Cayce
“Remember that all is One… and what you do to your neighbor, your friend or your foe, is a reflection of what you think of your Creator.” Edgar Cayce
“Through prayer we speak to God. In meditation, God speaks to us.” Edgar Cayce
“Sound will be the medicine of the future.” Edgar Cayce
“A soulmate is an ongoing connection with another individual that the soul picks up again in various times and places over lifetimes. We are attracted to another person at a soul level not because that person is our unique complement, but because by being with that individual, we are somehow provided with an impetus to become whole ourselves.” Edgar Cayce
“Forces of light on earth shall overcome the force of darkness. Complete spiritual enlightenment on earth will occur.” Edgar Cayce
“Keep the Pineal Gland operating and you will Never grow Old, You will always be Young.”Edgar Cayce
“Arcturus is the highest civilization in our galaxy.” Edgar Cayce
“Know that all healing forces are within, not without! The applications from without are merely to create within a coordinating mental and spiritual force.” Edgar Cayce
“Happiness is your choice to make. How happy or how miserable do you want to be?”Edgar Cayce
“When you get to the place where you would worry, Stop and pray.” Edgar Cayce
“Astrology is a fact, in most instances. But astrological aspects are but signs, symbols. No influence is of greater value or of greater help than the will of an individual…. Do not attempt to be guided by, but use the astrological influences as the means to meet or to overcome the faults and failures, or to minimize the faults and to magnify the virtues in self.” Edgar Cayce
“Each soul enters with a mission. We all have a mission to perform.” Edgar Cayce
“You have inherited (the) most from yourself, not from your family! The family is only a river through which Soul flows.” Edgar Cayce
“Meditation is listening to the divine within.” Edgar Cayce
“Birth in the physical is death in the spiritual. Death in the physical is the birth in the spiritual.” Edgar Cayce

7 Metaphysical Tips to Give Your Child an Edge
You can probably think of ways adults could have assisted you in your childhood so you would have had an edge in life. If you have kids, grandkids, nieces and nephews, godchildren, or you mentor or teach kids, maybe you help them in ways you were not. Below are some metaphysical ways you can give kids an edge in this world.
Meditate daily. This will help you be calm and centered so you can react to your child in the best way possible. When she is old enough to sit with you and focus, you can teach her to meditate too. Think of the head start she will have in all areas of life if she learns how to tune out distractions and find her inner peace.
Clear your energy. Spiritual debris is everywhere and children are more vulnerable to it. Clearing yourself and your home will benefit your kids too.
Don’t drink heavily or do drugs anywhere near your kids. Spiritual troublemakers come running to people who overindulge, and these lower energy forms can target the weaker energy of kids too. But even if you do it away from your kids, you’re still setting an example for them.
Consider a numerology or astrology reading for your child. A good comprehensive numerology or astrology reading can help you realize your child’s talents and skills so you can encourage them in the right direction for future success. It can also uncover potential problem areas so you know what to help them work on.
Notice past life signs. If he is especially good at something, he may have done it before in past lives. Encourage him. An unexplained fear may also be a carry-over, and you can help him deal with it with your awareness.
Pay attention to dreams. Encourage your children to think about what their dreams mean to them so they learn about how the subconscious mind speaks to us in dreams. Nightmares of being chased might indicate troublemaker spirits in the area.
Pay attention to their “imagination.” Sometimes imaginary friends are more than that. Children, usually up to around age 7, are better able to perceive ghosts or lost souls. Sometimes imaginary friends are harmless, but if you sense something unseen that is negative for your child, use spiritual clearing to send it to the Light.
Teach your child acceptance. By being an example, you will show him the best way to handle difficult situations that you cannot change.
Teach your child forgiveness. By being an example, you will show her the power of forgiveness, and how it’s for you, not the perpetrator.
Teach your child gratitude. Expressing gratitude for the circumstances, things, and people in your life will show him how gratitude can act as a magic wand to help deal with conflict and bring more good things into your life.
Teach your child to honor and trust her intuition. This can be with or without meditation. Children often just “know” things. Pay attention to this and help her develop it.
Teach your children about karma. Help her realize good actions will beget more of the same in the future, and how destructive behavior comes back to you too.
Teach your child about life after death. Help him understand that death isn’t an ending, but a transformation, and that we’ll all see each other again.
Teach your child how to be of service to others. Help him realize that even a small, seemingly insignificant yet loving gesture can make a big difference in someone’s life.
Don’t encourage love life fairytales. When she is ready to date, help her understand that everyone has many soul mates, each might be destined for a different purpose (not always marriage or together-forever-in-bliss), and relationships started at a very young age are not always destined to be lifelong.
Turn off the video games and TV. This isn’t really a metaphysical tip, but still important. Help your teens learn basic life skills like keeping a budget, cooking healthy meals, daily exercise, productive scheduling, avoiding procrastination, how to deal with difficult people in a positive way, decision making, and taking responsibility for their actions.
Work through your own issues so you don’t project them onto your child. Heal yourself so your child won’t have to heal because of you.

What You Need to Know About Guardian Angels Part II
Most of the world’s population believes in the concept of guardian angels in some way or another; everyone has at least one invisible spiritual helper looking out for his or her best interests. You can make the most of your guardian angels by following the advice below.
“The angels as the guardians of men are set over men as instructors and monitors. This shows the relationship that is to exist between them. Man’s attitude is to be one of obedience and subjection. He is to follow the lead of the angels, and consequently some reverence is already implied in the very relationship that exists between man and angel.” Tertullian
“Music is well said to be the speech of angels.” Thomas Carlyle
Why and Where Guardian Angels Exist
Our long-term empirical findings involving meditation, reincarnation and life between life research show that guardian angels exist because of an interconnectedness between all life forms and the existence of other dimensions besides this Earth plane. Benevolent life forms on those dimensions desire to help those incarnated in bodily form. To those of the Light on the other side, we are all on the same team, so they are compelled to help where possible.
Guardian Angel Recommendations and Red Flags
Watch out for the following signs of trouble to avoid fake guardian angles, including demonic entities and mischief-maker lost souls.
1. Scattering your energy, high stress, and poor diet leading to vitamin and mineral deficiencies are some ways you may open yourself up to guidance that isn’t of the Light. Alternatively, a deep meditative state, effectively grounding and centering yourself much more readily aligns you with your guides of the Light.
2. Any advice from an unseen entity that sounds biased or would make you incur negative karma, such as lying, cheating, or stealing, is likely advice from a fake guardian angel of the Light. There may be exceptions, such as cheating or stealing to save your life, in rare circumstances.
3. Are you seemingly in constant communication with a guardian angel? Watch out. That’s a sign it’s a disembodied spirit hanger-on who doesn’t have your best interests in mind. Authentic guardian angels aren’t constantly in your presence; they tend to show up when you need them most.
4. Avoid Ouija boards. Unless you really know what you’re doing and spiritually protect yourself beforehand, these devices can easily attract troublemaker spirits who pretend to be guides of the Light.
5. If the guide shows up only when you’re drunk or under the influence of drugs, it’s most likely not of the Light and instead probably a disembodied spirit or worse, such as a demonic entity.
6. If the guide claims to be someone famous, such as Elvis or Cleopatra, it likely isn’t a guardian angel of the Light because those of the Light on the other side lack ego-self gratification and have zero desire to appear famous or celebrated. The saying about anonymous charity being the highest form of charity is fitting for guardian angels of the Light; they don’t care if you don’t know their history or recognize their earthly accomplishments.
7. Always make sure to specify guardian angles of the Light when you ask for help. Avoid asking for help from those not of the Light because the ultimate price to pay for that is being indentured to those dark entities once you cross over. Selling your soul to fulfill your earthly desires is never worth it.
“It was pride that changed angels into devils; it is humility that makes men as angels.” Saint Augustine
“It is by suffering that human beings become angels.” Victor Hugo
The simplest way to receive regular divine guidance from your guardian angels of the Light is to ask. They are ready to help you whenever you need it.

What You Need to Know About Guardian Angels Part I
We, like many religions and individuals throughout history, accept the notion that everyone has at least one guardian angel, which is a helpful being on the other side. Below we give advice to avoid trouble with negative energies and make the most of your guardian Angels.
“On Earth, we really only deal with two types of angels: the angels, or guardian angels, who are closest to us, and the archangels, who are the managers of the guardian angels. Archangel Michael is a well-known example of an archangel. Guardian angels are assigned to each and every one of us at or before conception. As a soul getting ready to incarnate, you actually talk with your angels and set up a lot of your life.” Doreen Virtue
Who They Are
Our long-term empirical research involving past life regression, reincarnation, and meditation shows us that your guardian angels could be souls you’ve shared lifetimes with in the past. Perhaps a good friend or family member you were close to centuries ago while both incarnated on Earth have now chosen to guide you from the other side. Or one of your guides now may be a friend or family member incarnated in the future.
Additionally, you could have a temporary guide that is helping you learn a specific skill, or helping you complete an important project. It’s also possible one of your guides could be a soul that has exclusively incarnated on planets other than Earth.
“The world of pure spirits stretches between the divine nature and the world of human beings; because divine wisdom has ordained that the higher should look after the lower, angels execute the divine plan for human salvation: they are our guardians, who free us when hindered and help to bring us home.” Thomas Aquinas
Why Guardian Angels Make Sense
Considering the theories that you’ve had many past lives, there is a limitless number of planets in the universe on which to incarnate, there are a vast number of souls and entities on the other side in various dimensions, everyone is of the same energy force or spirit, and you’ve established countless connections with other souls while incarnated and on the other side, the idea of never being alone due to influences on the other side makes sense.
How To Sense Guardian Angels
Thirty years ago, we struggled to confirm authentic guidance of the Light from the other side, but we’ve found it gets easier through regular meditation, healthy living, and asking for guidance.
Unless you’re one of those rare, extremely psychic individuals, communication with your guardian angles isn’t like a Hollywood movie, as if you’re talking to a friend standing next to you. The conveyance is much more subtle.
A warm sensation on your skin, melodic whispering in your ear you perceive as a soft buzz or ringing, a fragrant scent or unusual taste on your tongue seemingly from nowhere, or an uncommon emotional or intuitive impression are some ways you may acutely sense guardian angels in your presence, beyond their usual everyday invisible protection. Perhaps you have been asking in meditation or prayer for advice from your guides of the Light and you suddenly sense a slight harmonious vibration or a warm feeling and get a flash of insight. They are more than willing to will work with you and help you if you ask.
When You Connect With Guardian Angels More Easily
You are much more likely to attract and sense the guidance of your guardian angels when you are sober, centered, grounded, expressing gratitude, humble, and calm.
Guardian Angels vs. Disembodied and Other Entities
It’s common for troublemaker entities to pretend to be helpful guides. Troublemaker entities include disembodied spirits, demonic entities and other tricksters that aren’t of the Light. Some of them are souls that had previously incarnated into human bodies, some aren’t. Although disembodied spirits may not always be of the darkness, they are merely souls that are loitering on the invisible, lower planes instead of going to the Light. It’s possible for a lost soul to roam for centuries or even longer, though their sense of time on the invisible planes is different so they don’t perceive it as such. Previously incarnated and lost souls still possess all of their worldly prejudices, as well as habits and addictions. Recognize that any biased or negative advice you receive from a “guide,” such as suggesting to do harm to another person, isn’t a guardian angel of the Light.
“Gratitude is our most direct line to God and the angels.” Terry Taylor
To benefit from your guardian angels, simply ask for help from your angels of the Light on a regular basis and be open to assistance.

How to Avoid the Disappointment of Fate
Sometimes, no matter what you try, a specific goal is unattainable, which could mean fate rules over your free will. The more effort you put into it, the worse the disappointment. Even though this is an unfortunate part of life, you can minimize the disappointment of fate with your awareness.
Many claim you can reach any goal, as long as you “believe” you can do it.
Some recommend using spells or magic for goals. Unfortunately, if you manipulate anyone with spells or magic, this is black magic and will create plenty of negative karma for you. Also, we’ve noticed, over years of observation, that spells can’t permanently override karma or fate.
Some pander to the instant gratification desires of the masses. They don’t acknowledge (or don’t know) that you can’t always have what you want if it’s not meant to be. Even worse, they fail to state the importance of knowing yourself, your talents and skills, and whether a specific goal is part of your good karma and fate.
We see this as an attempt to cheat fate.
Does that sound too harsh? We’d rather be direct with our findings than lead you down a path of illusion like we see happen too often.
Many well-meaning New Age entrepreneurs try to help people with popular spiritual concepts, but if they ignore fate, they are doing their customers a disservice. Fate or destiny (same thing) is one of the main deciding factors that determines how your life unfolds and whether, ultimately, you reach and maintain a goal or not.
Regardless of how much inspiration and energy you direct toward your desire, and no matter how much you heal yourself, it will not happen unless it’s part of your path.
Sure, inspiration is wonderful and can catapult you over doubt and other roadblocks. But when it’s not grounded in spiritual truth, you’ll stumble.
How do we know fate is a spiritual truth? Don’t take our word for it. Study ancient, comprehensive (not the superficial versions like horoscopes) numerology and astrology obsessively for years. Turn off the TV because you won’t have time for it, or much socializing either. You’ll find that it’s as complex as learning a new language, and your accuracy will increase even more when you use your intuition with the knowledge. In order to increase the accuracy of your intuition, you must meditate daily. Then observe people, their personalities and timing, with these ancient sciences (yes, they are sciences) and track their goals. Goals such as finding a lasting and (truly) compatible relationship partner, creating wealth, overcoming health problems, and career success are a good start. You notice that when a goal is conducive to someone’s fate (as outlined by these two ancient sciences) they are much more likely to reach it. When fate is not on their side, they won’t, or if they do, it will be a major struggle or they won’t maintain it.
How to Avoid the Disappointment of Fate
Drop expectations, especially when your goal depends upon others (like in your love life, for example).
Drop any sense of entitlement. You may or may not have earned the good karma (mainly through past lives) or talent (through past lives and the present life) for a specific goal, or it may or may not be part of your best path this time. But don’t let that discourage you. It’s important to strive for a goal that feels right to you because even if you don’t reach it this time, what you accomplish or learn in the process might be invaluable for your future. Keep in mind that if you don’t achieve a cherished goal, your soul may have planned all along that the striving for that goal was the important part.
Meditate so you can more easily sense if striving for a certain goal is part of your fate and good for you or not. Ask in meditation, from whomever you pray to, for guidance.
Ask for help in (and out of) meditation every step of the way. We’ve received insight (what we need, not always what we want) countless times after asking for it (from God, Guides of the Light, or our Higher Self), but it may not always come right away or in the form we expect.
A simple question to whoever you pray to can be, “What’s my next step to ______ ?” Ask for insight as often as you feel the need. With practice, you might wake up with answers if you ask before bed.
Have faith. Replace fears with faith and gratitude.
Do all you can to reach the goal, but also accept there may be unseen (for now) reasons for not reaching it.
If things turn out differently than you hoped, meditate and ask for help in dealing with disappointment or loss. Ask for help with acceptance, in seeing the bright side, and with being grateful for what you have rather than what you don’t.

The Super-conscious: Beyond the Conscious and Subconscious
Many ancient cultures embraced the concept of the mind consisting of conscious awareness (and unconscious) coexisting with the soul or super-conscious.
“Just as the soul fills the body, so God fills the world. Just as the soul bears the body, so God endures the world. Just as the soul sees but is not seen, so God sees but is not seen. Just as the soul feeds the body, so God gives food to the world.” Marcus Tullius Cicero
Even though the Age of Reason in the 1700s largely cultivated a belief that human consciousness is merely a living body and a brain, the idea of consciousness beyond the physical seems to be gaining popularity in modern times.
“What is a soul? It’s like electricity – we don’t really know what it is, but it’s a force that can light a room.” Ray Charles
The soul has many synonyms, including, for example, super-conscious, higher-self, God-self, divine essence, sixth sense, and spirit. According to the tenets of reincarnation and karma, the soul is eternal and incarnates time and time again to learn specific lessons. Our findings show that the soul often has a different agenda than your earthly personality.
“You have to go through those mountains and valleys – because that’s what life is: soul growth.” Wayne Newton
“The soul is placed in the body like a rough diamond, and must be polished, or the luster of it will never appear.” Daniel Defoe
“Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.” Helen Keller
Your higher-self is the mysterious side of yourself that you may temporarily access while in deep meditation and, or when you have piercing prophetic insight about the future.
A case could be made for what people believe to be the soul instead being the unconscious part of the mind, the subconscious. You may sometimes have dreams that dredge up unconscious notions.
However, it’s difficult to justify prophetic dreams being a mere function of your unconscious mind, particularly with vivid details of life circumstances that come to fruition. The idea that your soul, the direct connection to the all-knowing God-force, sometimes relays facets of actual future events to you via a dream state is much more logical than the source being your subconscious mind, which doesn’t possess a crystal ball.
Our findings show that those rare, conscious connections to your soul, divinatory flashes of insight, tend to increase due to two things: making a consistent effort to be centered such as though regular meditation, and your collective astrological and numerological timing being conducive to consciously accessing your higher-self’s knowledge.
While you are connecting with your soul and having psychic impressions, you’re tapping into the other side, the higher-dimensions or Akashic Records, where all information about the past, present and future is stored.
If you were able to consciously peruse these records at your leisure, we suspect you would get the distinct impression that karma (which works in conjunction with reincarnation) is a valid concept, it must be balanced directly through experience, and it is one of the most important universal laws linked to your soul.
“Your own soul is nourished when you are kind; it is destroyed when you are cruel.” King Solomon
“Ordinary riches can be stolen; real riches cannot. In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you.” Oscar Wilde
“The only thing you can take with you is that which you have given away.” Frank Capra
Your subconscious mind is where all past and present life memories, fears, defenses, and inner talents are stored. We believe it’s separate from your super-conscious or soul, your direct connection to all that is in the unseen dimensions and the universe. Consciously acknowledging this part of your being is a big step toward ultimately taking full responsibility for your life, which helps you more easily make the most of it.

Ultimate Spirituality: Get To Know Your Subconscious Mind Part 5
Ultimate spirituality, in part, involves uncovering your hidden personality, the distinct strengths and weaknesses that are underneath your persona. Try as you might, you aren’t really in control of your subconscious mind which greatly influences your behavior.
Although some of your concealed personality traits may not be very pleasant, uncovering your true nature can help maximize your talents and make the most of your life circumstances.
In the previous articles in this series, we’ve outlined specific examples of the power of the subconscious mind, as well as multiple, specific, common subconscious fears and defenses.
Below we outline three ways to access your subconscious mind and identify your hidden character traits, helping you achieve greater spiritual growth.
1. Meditation is one of the best ways to discover your inner self, the real you. Despite being free, it’s not easy for a novice to immediately take advantage of meditation to make serious headway with self-discovery.
First, it takes time to establish a solid inner connection. You must regularly practice meditation for the most benefit.
Second, your concealed mind is likely to fight you in the beginning. As you sit down and begin your session, you may suddenly have an itch on your face, or a fear of forgetting to turn off the lights in another room may seize you; that’s your subconscious playing games. Your collective fears, defenses, and strengths doesn’t like not being in control as you attempt to detach from it, which is the essence of meditation. After all, the simplest form of meditation is intense focus (such as on your chest-plate and breathing), and as you intensely focus, you gradually detach from your daily dramas and hustle and bustle of your everyday mind.
Imagine what it’s like for a mountain-climber as she intensely focuses on her climb; she must focus 100% to survive the climb. In the process, she temporarily forgets about everything else in her life, just as with a good meditation session. The ability to temporarily, completely let go of your current mind-dramas offers tremendous perspective.
It may surprise you that you might be able to get in a partial meditative state through various ways such as swimming, walking in the forest, knitting, driving a familiar route, and anything else that you can do without thinking that helps you release from an over-active mind.
“Meditation gives you two things: equanimity and creativity. And it does that by taking one from their conscious mind, where there’s all that noise and chaos and so on, into the subconscious mind where there’s quiet and where creativity emanates from. You have a mantra, and when you repeat it over and over again, all those thoughts go away because you shift them to that mantra. And then eventually that sound disappears, and then you’re left not conscious or unconscious – you’re left in this subconscious state, and by opening that up, first of all you get control of it.” Ray Dalio
2. Hypnosis is a fantastic way to access your subconscious personality. It is defined by the American Heritage Science Dictionary as “A trancelike state resembling sleep, usually induced by a therapist by focusing a subject’s attention, that heightens the subject’s receptivity to suggestion. The uses of hypnosis in medicine and psychology include recovering repressed memories, modifying or eliminating undesirable behavior (such as smoking), and treating certain chronic disorders, such as anxiety.”
The only change we would make to that definition is that the vast majority of people do not go to sleep when hypnotized; it’s just a very relaxed state and you’re in complete control. Have you ever zoned out watching TV? Then you’ve experienced a state of hypnosis. Although a trained hypnotherapist can be of great help, there is an even easier and cheaper way: you can use hypnosis MP3 audios, a form of self-hypnosis, to help identify hidden facets of your personality, including childhood issues.
3. Handwriting analysis, or graphology, by a well-trained professional is very effective in delineating subconscious fears and defenses. It’s one of the most objective and least discriminatory forms of personality analysis. All of the personality traits outlined in the previous articles in this series are readily identified by graphology.
Before we embraced handwriting analysis as a potential effective means to assess character, we wanted to confirm that it is a genuine science, instead of a pseudoscience. Merriam-Webster dictionary defines pseudoscience as “A system of theories, assumptions, and methods erroneously regarded as scientific.” It defines scientific as “Of, relating to, or exhibiting the methods or principles of science.” It defines science as “A knowledge or a system of knowledge covering general truths or the operation of general laws especially as obtained and tested through scientific method.” Finally, it defines scientific method as “Principles and procedures for the systematic pursuit of knowledge involving the recognition and formulation of a problem, the collection of data through observation and experiment, and the formulation and testing of hypotheses.”
Handwriting analysis is empirically based, an “…objective collection of data through observation and experiment and the formulation and testing of hypotheses.” Therefore, graphology is an authentic science.
Graphology is used extensively by major corporations in Italy, Spain, France, and Israel for personnel selection. American companies that use it include G.E., Ford, Northwestern Mutual Life, Dairy Queen, and many smaller companies.
Rest assured, handwriting analysis is one of the most legitimately effective ways to uncover hidden features of your mind.
“Something happens when your subconscious goes to work… That’s why ‘Sleep on it’ is an adage.” Jon Voight
“Never go to sleep without a request to your subconscious.” Thomas A. Edison
The first step to uncover your unconscious mind’s power is to acknowledge that your collective subconscious mind exists. Then, by utilizing the tools we outline above, nothing is standing in your way to greater self-knowledge, thus a greater ability to overcome life’s challenges and achieve your full potential.

Ultimate Spirituality: Get To Know Your Subconscious Mind Part 4
The power of the human mind is truly remarkable. You’re consciously aware of the content of this article as you read it, but the focus of your collective subconscious mind is likely elsewhere, and is infinitely more powerful.
Ultimately, you can’t control what your subconscious mind does; it greatly influences your thinking and actions and doesn’t always go along with your conscious decisions.
“I need one of those baby monitors from my subconscious to my consciousness so I can know what the hell I’m really thinking about.” Steven Wright
Pretending to be absolutely rational in decision-making is an amusing, universal human trait; the subconscious mind’s fears, defenses, biases, and strengths guide and potentially even overpower your conscious thinking, even though you believe your conscious mind is logically determining your behavior.
Everyone has a unique collection and varying degrees of subconscious fears and defenses, which sometimes cause questionable behavior. It’s good to keep in mind that nobody is perfect and you can’t just put aside ingrained, concealed fears and defenses anymore than you can put aside the need for regular sleep.
It’s possible to modify many subconscious fears such as fear of abandonment, but you must learn to live with other, more deep-rooted fears.
Subconscious defenses are more difficult to modify. Subconscious resistance-type defense patterns such as domineering behavior are some of the more menacing personality traits and are hard to adjust.
Escape-type subconscious defense patterns, such as severe evasiveness seem to be the most difficult to modify.
Below we summarize numerous, common, problematic subconscious traits, including fears and defenses.
1. One of the most misery-inducing, hidden personality traits is excessive resentment. It’s common to take some time to forgive wrongs, but the inability to let go of past wrongs and finally fully forgive is a sign that the subject may do great harm to her emotional well-being. Those perceived injustices could pile up and pollute an otherwise beautiful soul.
2. Excessive inhibition and sensitivity to criticism are two traits that can greatly hinder partnerships of all kinds; the subject is too hesitant and shy, making healthy interpersonal and business relationships almost impossible.
3. Excessive secretiveness and, or evasiveness can also greatly impede interpersonal and business relationships. The subject covertly acting on her own accord behind the scenes, refusing to convey important information, and a general lack of transparency leaves others wondering whether they should dissolve the partnership.
4. An individual who has great difficulty living up to his asserted convictions displays a lack of integrity. It isn’t very pleasant to discover that someone close to you says he believes in one thing, yet does the opposite. This is one reason why it’s important to be very cautious in dealings with career politicians.
5. Excessive dishonesty is often associated with criminal behavior. Thus, those who are insincere, deceivers and, or blatant liars should be avoided at all costs.
6. The danger of excessive conflict avoidance is that the subject could be manipulated and maneuvered into a desired decision or direction. It’s also one of those traits that, although it initially contributes to fewer arguments in partnerships, it can ultimately cause a lot of discord. Eventually, potential ill feelings and differences will surface in some form or another.
7. Excessive defiance and, or stubbornness involves the subject resorting to unreasonable and unyielding behavior to her and others’ detriment. She is unaccommodating and makes a sport out of being uncooperative.
8. An individual who inordinately bluffs is an extraordinary pretender and can’t be taken seriously. Eventually, he is exposed as a phony.
Remarkably, just by being conscious of the fact that you have hidden character traits can be a huge help in self-discovery and getting the most out of your life.
After you address your concealed challenges, it’s much easier to take advantage of your hidden talents.

Ultimate Spirituality: Get To Know Your Subconscious Mind Part 3
Beyond your conscious awareness resides your collective subconscious with unique fears, biases, defenses, and abilities that comprises the real you.
One of the fastest ways to advance your self-knowledge, thus, spirituality, is to delve into your concealed mind; self-awareness is one of the keys to optimizing your talents and opportunities, making the most of your life.
“The subconscious is ceaselessly murmuring, and it is by listening to these murmurs that one hears its truth.” Gaston Bachelard
“Hunches [are] just messages from the subconscious, which [is] thinking furiously all the time and processing information we have not consciously noted.” Dean Koontz
You mostly can’t control subconscious impressions and how your subconscious operates, which greatly influences your thinking.
Nobody is perfect. Due to the ingrained nature of each individual’s distinct concealed fears and defenses, it’s wise to be sympathetic to the fact that an individual can’t simply put them aside on demand and be perfectly rational, just like he can’t simply put aside his inability to defy gravity.
It’s possible to modify many subconscious fears such as fear of flying, but you must learn to live with other, more entrenched fears, and subconscious defenses can’t really be modified very much.
Subconscious resistance-type defense patterns such as resentment and aggressiveness are some of the more threatening and troubling personality traits and are hard to adjust.
Even more difficult to amend than the above-listed defenses are escape-type subconscious defense patterns such as acute self-deception and secretiveness.
Below we outline multiple, common, problematic subconscious traits, including fears and defenses.
1. Excessive desire for the acquisition of money and material things can be good for a business that pays its sales reps on commission, but this trait can be toxic otherwise, such as in relationships for obvious reasons. Coupled with deviousness, it can also easily lead to underhanded or even criminal behavior.
2. Someone with a savior complex does “the right thing” to his detriment. He typically enters a relationship with someone who is markedly mentally or emotionally wounded in attempt to save that person, whether he is conscious of it or not. It becomes a problem when he helps everyone but himself.
3. A person with excessive vanity and narcissism is a liability to any partnership or organization (and to herself) due to, in part, the fact that she can be manipulated through excessive praise and admiration. This trait is sometimes confused with having a “big ego,” but it’s actually representative of a weak ego, a weak ego-self.
4. Excessive rationalization, self-deception, and lack of objectivity are very common negative characteristics. Everyone rationalizes a little every now and then, but when it’s a full-blown, full-time idiosyncrasy, these are the types of people who firmly believe their lies, to the astonishment of those around them. It usually begins in childhood when the subject learns to fool himself because the truth is too painful for him to face squarely. For example, in his memory, his father didn’t abandon the family; he was merely pulled away due to strange life circumstances.
5. A person with excessive restlessness may jump from project to project, never completing much. It’s possible the process of focusing for too long on any given area of interest may unearth some secret memories in her subconscious she is unwilling to confront.
6. Perfectionism and, or excessive attention to detail causes a person to get lost in details while they miss the big picture.
7. Problematic emotional balance and maturity causes someone to lapse into an immature disposition while under pressure, to the chagrin of those around him.
Amazingly, simply being aware of the fact that you have hidden personality traits, beyond your persona, can be a big step toward self-awareness and getting more out of life. Once you address your hidden challenges, it’s much easier to cultivate your hidden talents.
