Numerology can be very helpful in predicting compatibility in all your relationships, business and personal, and today we'll be taking a look at how Numerology can be used to identify your romantic soulmates. (And yes, I believe we have more than one!) Q: What's a 'Life Path number' and what does it have to do with finding my soulmate?A: Your Life Path number is derived from your birthdate and is the most important number in your Numerology chart.Among other things, it reveals your mission in this lifetime, the main lessons you are here to learn, and the most fulfilling career path for you to follow.I believe our true soulmates in this lifetime are walking on Life Paths that complement our own. Although no two Life Paths are completely incompatible, certain number combinations have an almost magical potential together, while others can be more than a little hard work. Connecting ...

For years now I've been seeing 11:11 at least twice a day, and sometimes it happens all day long.So in honor of yesterday, 11/11/09, I'm posting this link to a very interesting website I just discovered whose purpose it is to conduct research on this common phenomenon.The name of their website is 'Numbers Phenomena Research' and here's what they're all about:'Our research is concerned with the phenomena that occurs to individuals when a 'trigger' - an 'event' precipitates an individual to begin seeing recurring numbers in a unique succession or order , one that 'recurs' in the course of their everyday lives, in diverse places at diverse times and unsolicited.'They go on to say: 'This phenomena is unexplainable at the present time. However, our research endeavors to ascertain the origins or meanings and at the very least propose a 'hypothesis' of why this phenomena happens, to whom, whe...

As a Numerologist I've helped lots of interesting people change their names over the years, and I actually changed my own a few years back.
I'd always been proud that my name came from a town in England -- I'd even visited Trowbridge -- but it was so hard for most people to spell and pronounce I finally had enough of the constant frustration. Besides that, my career was taking me more and more into the public eye and I decided I'd be doing us ALL a favor!

Can you relate?

Changing your name is a critically important decision because changing your name changes your personal and public 'energy'. Therefore it changes your LIFE. And since Numerology is all about analyzing the energy of names, using simple but highly sophisticated mathematical formulas, it can be a huge help in finding a name uniquely right for YOU.

Here are a few actual stories about cl...

It's a thrill to introduce my very special guest, Joe Vitale (a fellow 5 Life Path!) I'd been admiring Joe for years before he starred in the movie The Secret, mostly because I'd been a long-time student of marketing and he's a well known expert in that field. Joe had written some great books on the subject, and after he revealed his spiritual side in The Secret I came to like him even more. A number of synchronicities led up to the day when I finally connected with him. Basically, his name had been coming at me from everywhere until I said 'Alright, alright, I'll contact Joe!' And I was delighted when Joe wrote back immediately with his birth information as I'd requested and later gave me his blessing to post his Numerology report online. But what really blew me away was when he posted a public link to it in his BLOG, directing his thousands ...

Since '9' is the number of the humanitarian, on this auspicious day of Sept. 9th, 2009, I'd like to thank all the amazing people who are actively making a positive difference in the lives of others all over the world.Today I'd like to honor Frank McKinney, one of the greatest -- and most colorful -- humanitarians I've ever had the pleasure of learning about, and I'll start by telling you this.Frank is a fellow Floridian and my friends affectionately call him the 'real estate rock star'. He's gotten famous for building multi-million dollar estates in Palm Beach, and now he's using the profits to help fund his foundation in Haiti. (Kind of like 'a modern day Robin Hood', they say.)In Frank's own words, The Caring House Project Foundation is his 'highest calling' -- it feeds 15,000 people a day, supports an orphanage, and builds villages for families in the poorest sections of the island...

For the last couple of weeks I've been staying at my friend Ingrid's new guest house on a private lake in Tampa, Florida.Ingrid and I became close about 3 years ago when her husband died suddenly from a heart attack. It had been months since I'd looked at her Numerology chart and I remembered that she's on a 3 Life Path -- she's an extreme 'people person' and a gifted interior designer -- but I was fascinated to remember that she has a 22 Heart's Desire.This means that deep inside Ingrid longs to create something that will have a lasting impact on the world....something of major importance.Living Large

As my mentor Hans Decoz writes: '22 is a Master Number which has all the intelligence, sensitivity, and electric creativity that such a power would suggest....the inventiveness of the 11 and the down-to-earth practicality of the 4. This combination can make someone 'supremely...

I'm always grateful to be of service, especially when someone's going through a difficult time like the death of a loved one -- and recently my friend Eric lost both his brother and nephew on the same day.Their private plane had taken off immediately following their family reunion -- which had included a visit to their family grave plot (!!) -- only to do a nosedive right after leaving the runway. They both died instantly.

This morning I sent Eric his Numerology report and told him I'll be happy to provide complimentary reports for any other members of his family if he feels it might help in some way.

I've had many friends and clients tell me over the years that viewing similar situations through the eyes of Numerology helped them find the comfort and understanding they so desperately needed to get through it all. And I can't begin to tell you how much it's h...

I first heard of Numerology several years ago when I read about a celebrity manager in LA who was using it in his business plans.
This guy was managing people like Sylvester Stallone. And from what I could tell, it seemed to be working pretty well!
I was fascinated to say the least, and I made a mental note to look into it. But if anyone had told me that someday I'd be a professional Numerologist, I would have laughed. I was in the insurance business!

Numerology and The Movie Business
Fast forward to September 1996. I'd moved to LA from my home in Alaska ten months earlier with the dream of using my background in journalism and TV production to carve myself a niche in the documentary business.
(Unfortunately, I was in a '9 Personal Year' when I made my big move....NOT the best timing for starting something totally new! Numerology Lesson One.)
My missi...
