-line/>Who among us hasn’t asked themselves questions like: why am I here, what is the meaning of life, what is my mission, and why do some people struggle with their personal lives? Vedic astrology, as well as Vedic numerology, can provide answers to these questions and help reveal what is hidden. With their help, one can understand what their purpose is, what hinders relationships with the opposite sex, and what causes problems with children and others. Vedic knowledge aids in solving these issues.
Part 1: Karma’s Code
The ancient astrologers of India created a unique system that can answer many questions that interest a person. Today, this system is known as Vedic or Indian astrology, but its true name is Jyotish. Jyotish shows that a person’s birth and all the events in their life are not accidental but are the result of their actions in the past, which represent their karma – destiny.
A Vedic horoscope allows one to trace specific events in a person’s life and understand why some events do not happen. It helps in understanding where one can best realize themselves, when they might marry, and how to assess their compatibility with a partner and their relationships with others.
Vedic numerology also helps in solving these questions. It allows one to determine a person’s karma based on their birth date. Vedic or Indian numerology is different from other numerological systems.
In Vedic astrology and numerology, nine planets are used, and each planet corresponds to one of the numbers from 1 to 9. To determine the karma a person carries in this life, it is enough to determine two numbers based on their birth date. The first number is called the Soul Number, and the second is the Destiny Number. The Soul Number represents what a person was born with, what they brought from a past life (both good and bad actions, as well as everything that happened to them). The Destiny Number represents the purpose for which they were born, what they must accomplish in this life, and what they must achieve by the end of it.
Let’s take the birth date 15.09.1991 as an example.
We add up the numbers of the birth day. Here it is 15.
1 + 5 = 6
Thus, we get the first number, the Soul Number. It is 6.
Now, let’s calculate the second number, the Destiny Number. For this, we add all the digits of the full birth date until we get a single digit.
1+5+0+9+1+9+9+1 = 35 = 3+5 = 8
So, the Destiny Number is 8.
The Soul Number strongly influences a person during the first half of life, approximately until 35 years of age. Then, its influence begins to weaken, and the influence of the second number, the Destiny Number, takes over. However, both numbers continue to influence throughout one’s life.
The Soul Number reveals how a person sees themselves and what they must struggle with. The Destiny Number reveals how others see them and what they must develop within themselves. Both numbers represent karmic tasks.
If a person does not grow or evolve, nothing changes in their life. Around the age of forty, one can observe changes in life. Everything depends on the level of soul development. This is individual for each person.
Characteristics and karmic tasks for those with a Soul Number or Destiny Number 1
The number 1 is governed by the Sun. The Sun is the most essential planet—it can give life, but it can also take it away if it burns too brightly. This is also true of people with the number 1. From now on, we will refer to such a person as a “one.” These people are often considered selfish, but they must not have a soft character. “Ones” must, first and foremost, think about themselves and their own development. If you are a “one” and those around you do not see you as selfish, it is likely that you are not fully expressing your qualities. You need to open up, constantly learn, and develop, but without destroying others. Your goals must be achieved in an honest way. The main task is to learn to subdue your ego and to avoid criticizing others, understanding that everyone is different.
Another karmic task is to learn independence, to not expect anything from others, to accept criticism, and to avoid seeking approval or demanding attention. Instead, you must become self-sufficient, understand yourself, and not expect others to understand you.
“Ones” cannot be led; they usually take leadership positions themselves. It is better not to argue with or instruct them. Leadership and masculine qualities are characteristic of the “one.” If such a person opens a business, it is better for them to run it alone. If they have a partner, each must remain independent. It is best not to make “ones” your enemies. They usually do not seek revenge but will simply stop communicating with you. If a “one” has low self-esteem from childhood, raising it becomes a karmic task. You should never pressure a “one,” as they will still do things their own way. A “one” must learn to give to others without expecting anything in return, like the Sun, which warms everyone with its rays.
It is also important to find one’s own individual path, without copying others. These people can live alone and not feel lonely, or they need to learn this if it is not the case. However, this does not mean that such a person will be alone. They may marry and have a large family.
If a person has 1 as their first number and a different number as the second, they must pave their way in life and fulfill their karmic tasks in the first half of life. If 1 is the second number, they will work on their ego in the second half of life. If both the Soul Number and Destiny Number are 1, then the person will have the same karmic tasks throughout their life and will most often need to rely only on themselves. If they have helpers, it is a great benefit. A person with two 1s will have very little softness in their character, but they will be able to provide well for their family.
Here we have a combination of the numbers 1 and 0. 1 represents consciousness, and 0 represents infinity. The qualities of the number 1 dominate in 10. 1 signifies luck, while 0 signifies misfortune. The unlucky 0 pushes a person toward struggle. New opportunities often appear as losses. By finding the right application for your strength, you will multiply it.
From the very beginning, these people are endowed with immense power. 1 represents the energy of the Sun, and 9 represents the masculine, aggressive energy of Mars. These people achieve success, but they often make enemies. This combination of numbers also brings problems in personal life. They need to learn to care for a loved one while leaving their ambitions aside. These people will achieve success, goals, and status and will overcome all obstacles in their path. It is important to avoid stressful situations and pay attention to their diet.
The number 28 combines the energies of the Moon (2) and Saturn (8). 2 represents emotionality, and 8 represents the number of struggles. Such a person will face difficulties and various obstacles on their path. However, because the sum of these numbers is 1, success will come under certain conditions, as the total number always has greater influence.
The girl in this story was born into a typical family: her father was an electrician, and her mother was a saleswoman. Let’s call her Viola. She dreamed of becoming a lawyer, but her parents insisted that she go to work immediately after finishing school. Viola obeyed because, since childhood, she had been accustomed to not contradicting her parents.
