The Number 5

The Wanderer: freedom and change: the senses, adventure and a life of many roads.

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 freedom and to understand change. Your road is restless, full of travel, people, experiences and sudden turns, and you learn through your senses, by living rather than by reading. Routine suffocates you, and too much freedom can scatter you. The work of this life is to use freedom constructively: to choose your experiences rather than flee from one to another, and to bring back to others what you have learned on the road.

In love

In love you are passionate, curious and magnetic. You need freedom and novelty inside the relationship; your lesson is commitment, and the discovery that depth can be the greatest adventure.

In work

Your work thrives in movement: travel, sales, media, promotion, any field with variety, people and change. Routine is your enemy.

Gift and shadow

Its gift: adaptability, curiosity and courage before the new.

Its shadow: restlessness, excess and running away from commitment.

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 versatility, curiosity and ease with people. You adapt quickly and can sell, speak and travel with grace.

Soul urge

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

Your heart wants freedom: travel, change, new people and experiences, a life that never becomes stale.

Personality

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

Others see you as lively, attractive and adventurous. You seem free, and people are drawn to your energy.

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 change and freedom: travel, new experiences and unexpected turns.

As a personal year

A year of change and freedom: travel, new people, unexpected turns. Say yes to the new, but do not throw away what is good.

This year, move: change is your ally, not your enemy.

When 5 is missing from your name

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

Learning to accept change, to take risks and to live with freedom.

As a challenge

Freedom: to change without running away.

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 5th: curious and adaptable, gifted for communication and for change.

Born on the 14th: versatile and adventurous, needing freedom, learning through experience and change.

Born on the 23rd: quick, curious and versatile, gifted for communication and loving freedom.

What the numbers say

What the old book says (L. Dow Balliett, The Philosophy of Numbers, 1908): Experience. Bold, adaptable, charming and curious, 5 lives a life of short, vivid events, with money that comes and goes. It rarely holds a grudge; it simply turns its thoughts elsewhere. Balliett's advice is to accept experience and go often into silence. Its colour is pink.
