The Magic of Numbers


I come across some interesting things during my last spring cleaning that I would like to share it to everyone. Plus, this piece of information which related to personality that I felt somehow helps us to know ourselves more. Examples of calculating will be at the end of the notes. 

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

The Vowel = Heart Number
The Whole = Key Number
The Consonants = Personality

ONE = The number of ambition; personal energy directed mainly to self-advancement, and - if the negative aspects of the number are dominate - selfishness. ONEs can be strong forces for good, but if they allow their egotism full play, they can be dominating and inconsiderate, even, in the extreme cases, tyrannical.
  
TWO = The number of femininity in the old-fashioned senses to the world. The number often typifies the follower, nor the leader, and TWOs can tend to be much easy-going. They usually are good natured, if a trifle placid. TWOs can be over-secretive and somewhat malicious.

THREE = The numbers of integration, harmony, and wholeness. A typical THREEs are outgoing, adaptable, popular, and fast-thinking. In general, they are fortunate and envied by others. They can be show and conceited. 

FOUR = The number or reliability and steady application. FOURs tend to proceed slowly but unstoppable throughout their life, eventually achieving all they want - but often not until middle life. One of their faults is a tendency to bottle up their true emotions.

FIVE = The number of mystery and the inexplicable; FIVEs often conceal their trueselves from others, sometimes living a life that is externally at odds with what is going on inside their heads. Many FIVEs are attracted to things psychic; some of them can be reckless.

SIX = The number of reliability, loyalty and abiding affection. The personality of the SIXs - neither as solid as that of the FOURs nor as flashy as that of some THREEs, but often combining the best elements of both - usually leads to success.

SEVEN = The number of profound thought and creative imagination. SEVENs are often more interested in their inner than their outer lives. They sometimes strike others as being a little withdrawn, and have great difficulty in communicating with their follow men. Like FIVEs, they are attracted by the occult, although usually on a more serious level. 

EIGHT = The number of unremitting effort, practical success and, sometimes, disastrous material failure. The typical EIGHTs is a tireless and dedicated worker and thus achieved success; but a tendency to occasional recklessness which can sometimes result in loss of all that has been attained. As a consequences of this, some EIGHTs can be extremely bitter characters.

NINE = The number of success on every level, and, sooner or later, NINEs get what they want out of life - materially, intellectually, and emotionally - and attain to great happiness. They must, however, guard against a tendency to try to dominate the lives of others. They also have a tendency to be over enthusiastic and many be a little whimsical about their aims of life.

EXAMPLES: Your full name is used for calculation - sum of whole name, vowels of name and consonants of name.

The Whole
M  A  T  S  U  O    A  S  U  K  A      
4  1  4  3  6  7     1  3  6  2  1      

         25          +         13
                      38
                      11
                       2 (Key Number)


The Vowels 
M  A  T  S  U  O    A  S  U  K  A      
     1         6  7     1      6      1 

           14        +          8
                      22
                       4 (Heart Number)

The Consonants
M  A  T  S  U  O    A  S  U  K  A      
4      4  3                 3      2  

           11        +         5
                      16
                       7 (Personality)         


Whether you believe me or not, the above name is converted from my birth name via RUMANDMONKEY Japanese Name Generator. I have been using this name since middle school as my pen name. While using my birth name, I get this number: Key Number=6, Heart Number=1 & Personality=5. In reality, I found out that my personality, key and heart of birth name does apply in my working life. While the personality, key and heart of above name does apply to me when I'm home doing my favorite things or slacking around at home namely playing games, reading novels and working on my blogs.

The second day of CNY is known as KAI NIAN, meaning the beginning of the year and also known as YING XU RI meaning the day to welcome son-in-law.

While, the guys who is still single will try to pick up the oranges in the sea and look for beautiful dates. After the fifteenth day of CNY, this mark the end of Chinese New Year. 

As you can see, there are 6 out of 16 days of Chinese New Year are very important days to our modern people. The first 3 days from Chinese New Year Eve till the 2nd day of Chinese New Year are very important to all Chinese people as these days allow us to have reunion and family moment which we have missed out throughout the year since everyone are busy with their daily lives.

The ninth of CNY is the day we celebrate Jade Emperor's birthday and also it is important day to the Hokkien people to thanks the Jade Emperor of saving them from bandits raid in Ming Dynasty. The fifteenth day of CNY is the last day of CNY and young people get acquainted. 


Here, I would like to said:-

Little About Me

I was born and raised in a multirational country where there are many ethnic groups stay together in one roof. My country has 14 states and I stay in one of the states which were known as Island of Pearl. I was first exposed to Japan Animation (Japanimation/Anime) via our country's National TV which dubbed in Malay language. Later, I was further exposed to Anime via our country direct broadcast satellite pay TV service which dubbed in English language. That time, I was only 12 or 13 years old.  During my high school year, my classmates and I shared a lot of anime from series to movies. We always have fun sharing anything related to Anime. However, our common interest stop once we got into tertiary education. Three of my classmates decided to pursue their career while the remaining 6 of us pursuing our pre-university education. I was the last one left who continuously watching anime. Thus, I create these blog: CrimNight Animation Galaxy and CrimNight Muse Garden. Fortunately, there are 2 people who are close to me still accompany me, whereby they keep on updating me the latest anime on air; my little brother, Kaito and my soulmate, Marcus. Thus, I create these blogs to fulfill and share my interest to world wide network.
