The Number 3

The Voice: joyful expression: words, art and the light that makes others smile.

Life path

The life path is the road you came to walk. It comes from the full date of your birth, and it cannot be changed.

You came to learn joy and self-expression. Your road is the road of the word, the image, the song and the smile: you are meant to create, to speak, to make life lighter for others. Your gifts appear early, but so does the temptation to scatter them, to start much and finish little, or to hide sadness behind charm. The work of this life is to take your talent seriously, give it discipline and form, and dare to express what you truly feel.

In love

In love you are charming, playful and warm. You need laughter, words and admiration; your lesson is constancy and the courage to show your darker moods, not only your bright face.

In work

Your work thrives in expression: writing, speaking, art, design, teaching, sales, entertainment. You need variety and an audience.

Gift and shadow

Its gift: creativity, charm and an optimism that heals.

Its shadow: scattered energy, vanity and words without depth.

Expression

The expression, from every letter of your birth name, is the set of tools you came with: what you are able to do.

Your name gives you the gift of words and images. You can inspire, entertain and create; your talent wants to be expressed.

Soul urge

The soul urge, from the vowels, is what your heart secretly wants.

Your heart wants joy and expression: to create, to be seen and heard, to make life light and beautiful.

Personality

The personality, from the consonants, is the face that others see first.

Others see you as charming, witty and full of life. You light up a room, and people remember you.

As a pinnacle

A life is read in four seasons, the pinnacles. Each has its own number, and each brings a challenge to be met.

A season of expression and social life: creativity, friendships and joy come forward.

As a personal year

A year of expression and joy: create, speak, meet people, enjoy yourself. Scattered energy is the only danger.

This year, speak and create: your joy is a door for others.

When 3 is missing from your name

The numbers missing from your name are karmic lessons: things this life will ask you to learn.

Learning to express yourself, to speak, to create and to enjoy.

As a challenge

Expression: neither to scatter yourself nor to hide your voice.

Born on these days

The birthday number is a small gift given for the journey, a talent you can always count on.

Born on the 3rd: creative and expressive, gifted with words and with the joy of living.

Born on the 12th: expressive and imaginative, gifted with charm and the ability to see things in a new light.

Born on the 21st: creative and sociable, gifted with words, charm and optimism.

Born on the 30th: creative and expressive, with imagination, charm and a talent for words.

What the numbers say

What the old book says (L. Dow Balliett, The Philosophy of Numbers, 1908): Expression. 3 reveals what is hidden and helps others see the beauty around them, and it is joyful when true to itself. Balliett writes that not expressing yourself in some way weakens you, and calls 3 a peacemaker who gives freedom to others.
