Hi again Angie,


Interpreting the Essence numbers can be a complex,
intuitive process as it is not only just interpreting what
each year might be like for the individual but also the
length of the transits.

In the next newsletter we will go back to our fictional
chart from the last newsletter about how to calculate the
Essence Numbers to give you an idea of how they might be
interpreted for a chart.  However for now, here are the
based interpretations that you need to familiarize yourself
with.


Essence Number 1
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Essence of the number 1 signals a time of initiation,
birth and rebirth. It is generally a healthy exciting time
when new ideas are developed and a general atmosphere of
optimism prevails.

Essence #1 can also denote a period of growth that can lead
to recognition, respect and fame. It can also denote a
happy time in career when one is finally making money doing
something they love/

Of course there is no birth without labor and a one Essence
period can denote a time of great change.  However it is
also a period of strength and stamina so you can handle
anything that comes your way.

If this essence remains in effect for 3 years or more... it
can indicate a tumultuous time in which their might be too
many changes for a person to handle It can signify a
serious of dramatic changes that (for better or worse) keep
the person hopping. Whatever the event or change is its
impact is felt for years.

It is also a period of time when you can expect a great
deal of assistance and nurturing from others.


Essence Number 2
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Essence of number 2 is a time of consolidation and
organization. It is also a period of growth but it may also
contain setbacks.

Usually during this Essence period people are very focused
on their relationships and making them work. Teamwork is
also a focus of this aspect and it is not very likely you
will get very far in life without the cooperation of other
people.

Energy and vitality are often low during this cycle and you
may need to be nurtured or mentored by others. The Two
cycle is also associated with frustrations, obstacles,
delays and setbacks that are all part of a larger, often
spiritual learning curve.

If this essence remains in effect for 3 years or more...you
may experience a period of nervous or psychological
difficulties due to the frustrations and tensions this
period brings.


Essence Number 3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Essence of the number 3 denotes a joyous and gratifying
period in life. Friends both old and new may be the focus
of your life. It can also indicate a time when you find a
love or have an old love renewed.

Adventures, travels and the opportunity to expand your
horizons in every aspect of your life also characterize
this period. It emphasis is on good times and successful
ventures.

An Essence 3 number is also associated with fame and
recognition for artists and performers of every kind. It is
a good time for creativity and entrepreneurship.

turning point for a creative individual in which they
become very famous.

Essence Number 4
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


This cycle indicates a more serious or sober time. It is a
time of organization and discipline. Struggles with
financial, health and career matters are indicated.

Usually an Essence 4 period is not that fun as nothing
seems to fall in your lap and you have to earn every penny
you make. It is a time that requires a practical, rational
outlook on life.  Things build slowly and although success
is possible it does not come easily.

This period is also identified with limitations or
restrictions that could occur in area of your life. Often
these health, financial or relationship setbacks serve to
make you stronger and build your character.

If this essence is in effect for 3 years or more life might
feel like an endless struggle. However at the end of this
type of cycle usually lies a major personal triumph or
career accomplishment.


Essence Number 5
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This Essence number indicates a period of time when you may
experience more independence and freedom.  You may find
yourself single at this time and life may seem like an
endless number of adventures.

Travel or a change of residence is also indicated by an
Essence 5 period. The influence also stresses changes,
opportunities and rapidly changing circumstances that
require constant flexibility.

One drawback of this period is loneliness and another is a
tendency to scatter your interests in so many directions
that you don't accomplish anything at all.

If an Essence 5 period lasts for 3 or more years it can
reflect a period of financial or mental instability or
having to constantly relocate or be "on the run" because of
circumstances you can't control.

home and the family will be the main focus. It can also

to good causes to do with improving their community.

This influence can also mean assuming extra responsibility

member's health problems.

If an Essence 6 period extends for three years or longer
then it might indicate a period during which you are
completely at the mercy of a family member's problems. It
might also mean having a lot of children in a short period
of time. It can also indicate the giving up one's ambition
to support a family, adoption and foster care.


Essence Number 7
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This period denotes a time of introversion or self-imposed
isolation. You may not feel like connecting to other people
much. Your focus may only be on your own self-growth,
hobbies and interests.

A Number 7 Essence period can also indicate a retreat in
order to try and heal oneself psychological or emotionally.
It is a good period to embark on therapy.

The period can also indicate an intense period of learning
or study or a period when a focus on one's education does
not leave much time for anything else.

If the Number 7 Essence is in effect for 3 years or more it

society. Mental illness is a possibility as is
incarceration. It can also indicate a person not in touch
with reality.

valuable material things during this period.

an expert or a pillar of the community.

people who can help you with your career. The drawback is
that you are so busy that you might not have much time for
family, romance or health.

...periods of 8 Essence exceeding 3 years it can mean a
period where you achieve wealth, fame, power and status to
an extreme degree.

break up with a soul mate during this influence.

spiritual overtone about it, while the 22 Essence may
signal a time of significant achievement or fame.
