All numbers carry a spiritual, vibrational frequency that exerts a subconscious influence over our lives. The energy given off by your home’s personal address number enhances your own individual energy based on the vibration that that number carries. While our energy is stronger than that of our home, it is interesting to discover that in the same way that a blue room creates a feeling of serenity, and yellow – happiness, your address enhances feeling of creativity, abundance, peace, and sometimes conflict. Each number has both a positive and a negative influence that is felt on a subtle level of your consciousness.

To determine your address number you must add every digit and letter of your street address, omitting the word “street”, “road”, “lane”, etc.
For example: 9135 45 Road = 9+1+3+5+4+5 =27=9

If your street name is a word then use the following table.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
A B C D E F G H I
J K L M N O P Q R
S T U V W X Y Z

Example: 11 Maple Ln.= 1+1+4 (M) + 1 (A) + 7 (P) + 3 (L) + 5 (E) = 20 = 2

Note: If your address includes north, south, east or west, such as 11 Fairfield Drive North the corresponding numbers are:
North 3 South 2
East 9 West 4

However, if the directions are abbreviated, such as 125 NW 5 St. then count only the letters N (5) and W (5) so that the address number is
1 + 2 + 5 +5 + 5 + 5 = 23=5

The general meanings of the influence exerted by each number are as follows.

The 1 Home
A number 1 home is that of vitality, ambition, new beginnings, and innate creativity. This home exerts a positive, action-oriented energy and enhances the leadership skills and entrepreneurial spirits of its inhabitants. However, if this free flowing, independent minded power is obstructed it could lead to frustration, lethargy and addiction.

The 2 Home
A number 2 home exudes an energy of teamwork, balance, and cooperation. This is a perfect home for family gatherings and assists married partners, newlyweds especially, to learn to live in harmony with one another. The people who live in this home however, must have a clear sense of emotional boundaries in order to prevent codependency and the desire to over-help others.

The 3 Home
A number 3 home is gives off an energy that enhances conversation and heartfelt communication whether it is in person, on the telephone and even over email. This home will help its inhabitants tap into their deeper levels of emotional sensitivity in order to find expression through all fields of artistic endeavor, writing, in particular. However, those who live in a 3 home should remain mindful of expressing in the positive as much as possible because the sensitive nature of this home could lead to feelings of depression, complaining and self doubt if allowed to dwell in negative thought for extended periods of time.

The 4 Home
A 4 home is the one of happy childhoods, laughter, the family pet and the white picket fence. The stable and secure grounding energy of this home makes is a perfect place to raise children and encourages a patient, step-by-step process towards the completion of goals. However, in the negative, people living in this home may feel impatient to have it all “right now!” may have difficulty in following through with a task to its completion and will need to learn the folly in taking short cuts to success.

The 5 Home
A 5 home is filled with the aura of romance and sexuality. It also carries a restless spirit of independence, untamed thoughts and impulsiveness that must constructively find a focus. Those who seek inspiration through beauty will find a lot of material to channel into any creative field. This restless energy, however, can some times encourage you to take on too much and crave an independence that might rock the boat in an otherwise stable home life.

The 6 Home
The 6 home asks its inhabitants to learn to love themselves as they are, in the midst of their imperfections. It says, “Things don’t have to be perfect in order to be beautiful.” Those who live in this home are driven to succeed but can get themselves into trouble by comparing themselves too much to their peers. A little healthy competition goes a long way but too much becomes self-destructive.

The 7 Home
A 7 home should be filled with skylights and big windows. It is a nature lovers dream and asks you to appreciate and be open to the energy and beauty on your immediate surroundings. It is the home of the experimenter of human thought or person who enjoys figuring out how things work by seeing in shades of gray instead on in black and white. It can be a challenging home however, for marriages that are already lacking in stability because a 7 home influences you to come face to face with issues you might rather suppress. Secrets don’t remain hidden for long in this house.

The 8 Home
An 8 home is that of power and financial abundance. It carries with it an energy that influences its inhabitants to find security in the accumulation of wealth and control over your environment (and in extreme cases over people as well). Depending on the personality traits of those who live in this home, an 8 home can encourage you to be either a domineering spouse or the most philanthropic person in the neighborhood. You will flourish best in this home with an attitude of generosity and high moral character. This home is the stable, patriotic fortress that protects its inhabitants from the ugliness of the outside world.

The 9 Home
The 9 home asks you to seek a higher purpose for your life. Explore all things spiritual, find your place in the world, and then share your knowledge with others. A 9 home is quiet, calm and peaceful and is the sleeping cat’s paradise. However, it is not very conducive to amassing great financial wealth. The energy of this home says, “We are blessed with the material basics so let’s dive into deeper soul issues.” You will always feel at ease in this home, as if the sun always shines and skies are always blue.

Well, that’s the basics. If you feel like your address number is in conflict with the type of lifestyle you want to have an easy solution is to give your home a nickname that has the address number you want. Create a plaque or sign with your home’s new name and place it some where near the front door.

One of the most thought provoking and mysterious types of dreams we can have are the ones that come true. Known as precognition from the Latin word praemonere meaning to warn in advance, these dreams give us a glimpse of a future event, for which we usually have little control to change or prevent. Many of us have had dreams of this nature. The most common ones are about natural disasters, the death of a loved one, or of an every day scenario that happens exactly as we had foreseen. Sometimes we remember the dream right after we have it, while other times we remember the dream only after the event takes place. Either way, precognitive dreams can leave us feeling out of sorts; they shake us out of our ordinary every day routine, and cause us to start asking ourselves questions that may at first seem scary and uncomfortable.

Until we understand why these dreams come to us, they have the ability to unnerve the novice and long-term dream interpreter alike. When I have a dream about a future event of a terrible scenario that I cannot change I ask myself why do I even have it then in the first place? I want to fix the problem, change the ending, warn the person that something bad is coming their way and do something to step in and help. But these dreams aren’t given to us for that purpose. The major events in our life offer us learning experiences that hasten our soul’s evolution and certain life lessons cannot be taken away from us just because we are made aware of them beforehand. Dreams like this help soften the blow and help us to prepare for the event, they are an actual part of the preparation and the learning process and allows us hopefully to help others who aren’t as prepared as we are.

There is another type of precognitive dream that is often referred to as a déjà vu experience. In this case we will dream about an every day scene only to have it come to pass down to the most minute detail including time of day, words exchanged, music in the background and the clothing we are wearing. How fun it is to have these dreams! Embrace them because they are pointing out the fact that we are still on the same life path as we were when we originally had the dream. Are we happy about we we’re going? Are there things about the direction of our life that we would like to change? Déjà vu dreams offer us the opportunity to stop for a moment, take stock of where we’re going and ask ourselves whether or not we want to continue down this path.

Precognitive dreams are gifts from our higher selves. While we are asleep we are tuning into a high level of consciousness that allows us a peek at our future. They are never meant to scare us, just teach us. They are given to us because our higher selves want us to become more aware of our higher levels of mind and guide us to the realization that there is so much more to this universe than what is shown to us through our five senses. Precognitive dreams are the proof of that. If you would like to have more dreams of the future, then mentally ask for them before going to sleep at night. Keeping a dream journal is a great way to document them and will provide you with the evidence of their existence.

For me, it usually comes either when I’m getting ready to go on vacation, when I’m going a few miles an hour over the posted speed limit or when I’m just plain scared. For you, it might be something else; it probably is, however, the emotion if universal. Fear and anxiety are usually felt in the body as tightness in your chest, a sinking feeling in your stomach and worry in your heart. There is also a psychological component to these physical sensations that are brought about by worry, and when this part of us is tended to, the physical symptoms usually disappear quickly.

I remember reading a book a while back that said that fear is the anticipation that something is going to happen that we will not be able to control. The remedy is to have your mind come up with possible solutions that will help you feel prepared if the dreaded thing were to happen. You could get an alarm for your house if you fear a break-in, make sure you save a few dollars each week for a future day or call a loved one for advice and a listening ear when in need of reassurance. I agree with whoever said that the fear comes from feeling out of control and It is always prudent to plan ahead. However, sometimes a more immediate action is needed, at least for me it is.

A simple technique to rid yourself of this sort of worry is to imagine a warm, white protective light around you that is so bright that it’s blinding. I visualize it around my house and cats when I go away, around me and my car when I’m driving, and around my loved ones if I think they may be in a dangerous situation. The uses for this technique are endless and the most important idea to keep in mind is that the light is so bright and pure that it is blinding and makes you invisible to anyone or anything that might want to hurt you. There is some practicality to this notion. Science has been able to prove that on a molecular level, we are energy vibrating at a certain rate and that we attract to ourselves energy of a similar quality. With that in mind, if you visualize that you, your home or loved ones are surrounded by so much love and light they will literally be invisible to those people vibrating at a lower frequency who might want to cause you harm, you will block yourself from receiving negativity. Doing this exercise will give you an immediate feeling of protection and safety. An added benefit is that it will help you sleep better at night, especially if you do it before bedtime.

What exactly is it about another person that makes us feel so connected to them that we call them our soul mate? Is it because our days are better with them in our lives, because we feel warmer when they’re near and because we can spend hours daydreaming about them, wondering what they might be doing when we’re not around?Though the reasons why we think a person is our soul’s mate may vary, we can make it simple by stating that they make us feel happy and content, as if all is right with the world. We think that this is the person that we are destined to spend our lives with no matter what obstacles may come along or bad choice we might make that could break up the relationship. If that should happen then fate would step in to right our path and get us back on track with this person so that we live happily ever after. We also might say about a soul mate, “I love looking at him. I love how he makes me feel. It’s not just physical attraction. He/She completes me.”

Though these thoughts are beautiful and romantic they can often lead to difficulties in relationships and with ourselves. By believing that the unseen hand of fate ensures that we end up with our soul mate we get to give up taking responsibility for our bad choices. It leads us to think that some thing or some one outside of ourselves will take care of things for us. Ultimately, with any relationship, it is our free will that determines who we allow into our life and how long they will stay in our life, not fate.

To illustrate this point it is helpful to examine the famous Lovers Card in the tarot. When this card comes up in a reading about a relationship, it indicates that the person involved is a soul mate, is in your life for a definite purpose and that this relationship CAN, not WILL be life long. It says, “Here is a soul mate. What you do with this opportunity is up to you.”

If, for example, you grew up afraid of letting people get too emotionally close to you or had been hurt in prior relationships leading you to shut people out, meeting a soul mate could threaten your feelings of safety and arouse so much fear and insecurity that you might run away from them. That person would then leave your life and nothing will force the two of you to make a relationship work. The universe will never force you to do anything against your will; the universe doesn’t work that way.

There ARE certain people, who you, before you incarnated, chose to meet. These are the people with whom upon first meeting you feel ease and comfort around them like no other. It feels as if you’ve known them forever. They are one of your soul’s mates. They can be your best friend, your favorite relative, or your spouse.

Remember, a physical marriage is based on the laws of society and a soul mate relationship is based on universal law therefore your spouse is not your only soul mate. In addition, a person who we have life long problems with, like a parent or sibling with whom it is difficult to get along can also be a soul mate that we are choosing to meet again in order to heal past, negative karma.

There is really only one way to know for certain who your soul mates are. When interacting with people you must remain as even minded and calm as possible. You also have to put aside any feeling of physical attraction you might have for the individual. This ensures that it is your higher self making the discovery and not your ego wishing it were so.

Soul mates will forgive you when you hurt them and will always love you unconditionally. When you can say that you feel that way about someone, you are that person’s soul mate. Author, Paramahansa Yogananda states it beautifully:

“The eternal love of souls traveling together over lifetimes transcends time and space. We are repeatedly drawn to our beloved ones in order to perfect our relationship and create them into an example of Diving friendship. This is the true meaning of a should mate.”

Giving a reading for someone about a third party, be it a spouse, significant other, child, or anyone else you care for, is a bit like walking past your neighbor’s house and peeking through the windows. Sometimes the curtains are wide open and you can see in perfectly, while other times the blinds are half closed and you can only see a small part of what’s inside. Then there are the neighbors who close the blinds and the curtains and you can’t see beyond the exterior of the house. In all of these cases, however, you’ll never see the whole interior. The doors to the bathroom, bedroom, and closets will in most cased be closed.

We all have skeletons and ugly places we’d never want to share with anybody, even those we love. To use a psychic reading to try to force yourself into the closed parts of someone’s thought would be like breaking into your neighbor’s house and rummaging through the drawers to look for hidden treasures or secrets. It’s a violation of a person’s privacy. When giving a third party reading a client must understand that they will see a picture of the person but will never see the things they don’t want you to see. Their aura, which is the energy field around our bodies, protects them from psychic invasion of privacy.

A consultation about another person will, however, show you a person’s personality as well as where you fit into their life. It can also explain how they feel about the relationship, where the relationship is going, and the challenges they face with you. In addition, it can also give you some insight into their hopes and fear and also the obstacles that come from both within that person and also from outside forces. This includes pressure from family and friends, a geographic distance that prevents regular contact, a stressful job, or another person with whom your significant other may be involved. It will not tell you his deep, dark secrets. Also, if the person is very private in general and fears losing you if you were to discover him cheating, an affair will often not be revealed. Rather, what will be seen is dissatisfaction with the relationship, a sense that he’s keeping secrets and a casual attitude regarding commitment. In this case, the reading can set you on a path that may urge you to discover the truth for yourself, that is of course if you choose to and you really want to know the truth. Also, by evaluating the cards describing future events you have the opportunity to choose to keep things as they are or change the outcome. This happens when we change our attitudes and behaviors.

A reading is a spiritual tool, meant to help you in your soul’s journey to perfection. It is not a method to snoop and spy into another’s psyche. Just think for a moment how horrified and violated you’d feel if you knew someone did tried doing this to you. On the other hand, if it wouldn’t bother you and you still want to know what he’s doing right now, who he’s with and who he’s hanging around with, then try checking his cell phone bill and go out and hire a private investigator.

Many of us have had an experience where a sequence of seemingly random events come together and have a personal meaning to us. These coincidences are unexpected, unusual, beyond chance and have the ability to take us, for a moment, outside our normal, mundane existence. They raise the questions from where did this come and if I didn’t consciously plan this to happen, then who did.

A meaningful coincidence, one in which satisfies a deep seated need, sets us on a spiritual path or confirms that we are moving our lives in the right direction, comes from our Higher Self and is brought to us at the perfect time, and when we are most in need of it. It is an answer or guide to your soul’s request for evolution. It confirms that we are more than our brain and physical body and that this Higher Self can be better equipped at times to set us upon our true life’s journey than raw intelligence or mental planning. A coincidence shows us that we are co-creating our life with that which is greater than our physical body.
They show you that your heart felt wishes do get fulfilled, no matter how small. The hidden message in a smaller request being granted to you is that the larger ones can also be. The Universe, being infinitely compassionate, wants you to be happy and joyful. A coincidence is a gift and a grace that reminds you of the unity that has always existed between our physical selves and our higher selves.

You can ask for coincidences to take place in our lives simply by becoming quiet within yourself and asking for them. This can be a request for the solution to a problem, a confirmation that a choice you have made is in your best interest, or any other strong need that you have in your life. Then let go of it and continue going about your day. Realize that we also make requests on a subconscious level when we spend time thinking about what we truly want for ourselves. When coincidences do take place it is important to take a moment to acknowledge it and thank the Universe for it. This confirms your trust in the Higher Self to bring you good things. If you were to think about all the coincidences that have happened in your life (You can have a journal set aside for keeping track of them) you will see that there is an order within the chaos of our lives.

So what exactly is the true meaning of a dream involving a sexual encounter with your best friend, your boss, a stranger, or anybody else that you do not consciously fantasize about connecting with in an intimately physical way? This question often comes up during readings and involves a lot of whispering, nervousness, and apologies on the part of the embarrassed client who fears they might secretly desire somebody other than their spouse or who are embarrassed to think that they might be attracted to someone of the same sex. A friend of mine is so afraid of her sexual dreams that she denies to her husband that she even has any, lest he think she is of weak moral fiber.

This fear is not that far fetched when someone believes that this type of dream should be interpretated at face value and taken literally, as a message of some kind. Dreams indeed are messages to your conscious mind from your subconsciousness and are meant to make your life easier to understand, not more confusing. Most sexual dreams are symbolic and the key to correctly interpreting a dream about making love to someone you know is to think about the qualities of that person you most admire; in a boss that might be their strong ability to lead and speak in public. The dream’s message is that you are taking those admirable qualities into yourself and are becoming a stronger leader and public speaker.

Sexual dreams also represent a coming together or merger of opposite energies, as is the case in dreams about strangers. A dream about making love to a man is a message that you are merging with more action oriented, logical, and rational energy and that you are taking that energy into your Self as well as the need to be more logical and rational in order to live a more balanced life. Making love to a woman in a dream reflects more emotional, intuitive, and creative energies entering your life and the need to trust your intuition in making a decision. In essence, a sexual dream is about learning to balance masculine and feminine energy within us.

If, however, you continue to find these dreams unnerving and prefer that your sexual dreams be just that, of the fantasy variety, there is a simple solution. Mentally request before falling asleep that your dreams this evening be meaningful and understandable to you, free of symbolism and also request that you remember these dreams upon awakening. It is helpful to have a pen and paper near by in case you would like to write them down. This technique also works for dreaming of an answer to a particular problem and if you want to dream about a specific person.
