Interpreting The Numbers of Your Middle Name (The Emotional Self)

© Michael Brill 2003

 

Your middle name represents how you behave emotionally, the type of people you are attracted to, and why you are attracted to them. If you have no middle name you have chosen this lifetime to learn to balance with your emotions. You may swing between being emotionally intense or emotionally “flat.”

 

Our emotional relationships enable us to evolve emotionally and spiritually by allowing vulnerability into our lives. Numerically, the word relationships equals the number 66, a master number. Six is the number for love, 66 represents unconditional love and acceptance of all things from a cosmic perspective, i.e., every thing is connected or related. It is through these loving experiences that we rediscover our true Self. The more we allow ourselves to be emotionally vulnerable (6), the more compassionate (66) we become.

 

The information presented here is a fraction of what is taken into consideration when determining an individual’s emotional personality; however, as a thumbnail sketch they are accurate.

 

Using the chart below, determine the numerical total of your middle name. For example, if your middle name is Benjamin, the B represents 2, the E is 5, the N is 5 etc.. When you are finished, add all of the numbers then reduce them to a single digit.

 

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

 

B  E  N J  A  M  I  N

2+5+5+1+1+4+ 9+5 = 32    3+2= 5      Benjamin’s emotional number is 5.
