Your Desire Number Explained

The Desire Number corresponds to your deep motivations, to that which is important to you. It influences you in your choices and decisions even if you are not always conscious of it. This number is related to your deep emotions. Your Expression Number will be strongly tinted or shaded by your Desire Number. This vibration is calculated by reducing the sum of the vowels of your full name given at birth.

You have Desire Number 1. Your deep motivations lean towards independence, originality and innovation. You like praise, conquests and panache. You want to be first in command rather than having to obey. But you don't necessarily look to be the boss of others. What matters to you is to keep a certain independence even if it is within a collaboration. The 1 possesses a strong inner dynamism which pushes the person to put [his,her] ideas (quite original) into practice, to assert [him,her]self and privilege individual creations or big projects. You are not one who waits for the others or the events to carry you or decide for you. The ambition and desire for personal success characterize your taste and aspirations. You will be at ease in all independent and creative activities where you must take the initiative or manage a group. Don't forget that to fully express your role as leader, you must first evaluate the strength that you must have to develop in order to manage your projects well. This reflection before action will help you to generate this force with more accuracy. Generally, you don't appreciate the undermining of your desire for independence. If you feel in harmony with yourself, if you have no contradiction or hesitation inside then you will manifest a great confidence and an elevated feeling of your own importance. This will be very useful to succeed. However, be careful not to become egoistic. If your confidence was undermined during your youth, it is probable that you show resentment or a desire to rebel towards the end of your adolescence. This unconscious conflict will resolve itself from the moment that you cultivate your own independence and you stop centering your life on reactive antagonism. Be flexible ! Co-operation with others will then be able to happen serenely and you won't feel more inferior or dominated. Possible faults with this Desire Number : the systematic search for a dominant position, too demanding, pride, a mind that want to supervise everything or decide all the time.

You have Desire Number 2. Your deep motivation pushes you to strike up friendly relationships, to find associates, to search for a union preferably with a comfortable and warm environment. The accent put in your consciousness is on the importance of the following notions : co-operation, friendship, love, helpfulness, being sociable, tranquility, harmony between material and emotional values. You are attracted by others and you have a certain talent in starting relationships. You search perhaps unconsciously for support to make you feel secure or because you are not used to taking the initiative alone or simply because the presence of others increases the standing of the situation for you. These tendencies can be confirmed or invalidated by the other important aspects of your analysis (notably the Birthday Vibration, the Intimate Number and the Expression Number). Well lived, this vibration can make you sensitive, affectionate, loving, tender and peaceful. Ready to maintain the friendship [,or nourish the marriage bonds], you are capable of patience and diplomacy. Rather than centering the negotiation on the pressure or disguised blackmail, your approach is more subtle. You know how to bring the conversation to the subject that interests you, to cool down or push aside all that could harm your universe. When your Desire Number animates you, you are devoted, friendly, affectionate, likeable and generally very nice. You prefer to work in a group with your friends but also to get married, to found a comfortable home. If you know how to develop your sensitivity, it can become remarkable to the point of giving you a great imagination, a certain artistic sense and intuitive talents.

The social life is important to you. Company attracts you. You have an innate sense of communication and you would make a good sales person or leader. This extroversion can also manifest itself in creation. Whether it's a matter of writing, lyrics, movements, music, painting, theatre or audio-visual, you need to create. Art and beauty stimulates you. You like to vary your centers of interest and it is important for you to let your inspiration, imagination and good humor guide you. Lastly the taste for seduction and the search for a good image are two important aspects for you. There is a strong need in you for others, their presence, their approval which pushes you to be sociable, to communicate and to search for popularity. But also perhaps to certain excesses if you don't keep guard : superficiality, gossipyness, hypocrisy, vanity, unfulfilled promises, susceptibility and the need to be the center of attention. You strength lies essentially in your spontaneity, your authenticity, your creativity on the condition however that you finish what you start.

You have Desire Number 4. Your deep motivation pushes you to appreciate work well done, security and a well-ordered life. You have an attraction for stability in your private as well as professional life. For some, Desire Number 4 can mean a pronounced taste for order, logic and symmetry. In a general way, the accent will be put in your consciousness on the importance of quality, organization, stability and also honesty and fairness. You are ready to make an effort to obtain tangible results. Your analytical capacity, in particular if you know how to develop it, can be a considerable asset in your search for security and efficiency. You are capable of achieving perfectly all work that you undertake, even if it doesn't bring you prestige or praise. Of course, compliments encourage you and please you, but above all it is the quality that motivates you. In fact, you are happy when you accomplish something that corresponds to your criteria. Your qualities of organization, your perseverance and your meticulousness make you worthy of confidence. One could only reproach you for not reflecting enough on the well-founded directives of your superiors. However, it is probable that you would prefer to accomplish undertakings in solitude in order to be the only one responsible for the conception. You know how to listen to suggestions, you accept help but above all else it is the individual process that is compatible with your profound personality. Your strength lies essentially in your lucidity, your good sense and your capacity of not depending too much on outside appreciation.

To be loyal, solid and worthy of confidence ; to believe in the fundamental values of life, to keep your word. All these notions are going to be impregnated in your behavior. On the other hand, you are less at ease in the emotional and sentimental areas. If your numerological analysis reveals other number 4 and 7 vibrations, you will without a doubt not be very demonstrative. Pretenses, appearances and flattery leave you cold. You hate complex and unhealthy situations made of subterfuges and double dealing. In fact, you aspire to a logical, reliable, stable, concrete and comfortable world. You need to understand the "rules of the game" before acting. It can, on the other hand, be the case that you are a bit too straightforward and perfectionist, always looking to be absolutely correct. You also could sometimes you take refuge in excessive work in order to forget sentimental or relational setbacks. Too much or too little doesn't suit you including when it comes to food. Try to be more unpredictable, more enterprising or innovative ; forget your stiffness.

You have Desire Number 5. This is the vibration of free-will and experiences. It's important for you to keep your freedom, to follow your rhythm in avoiding the constraints and inertia of routine. You would like to experiment with nearly all things in life, get involved in a lot of activities, be versatile. Your deep motivation can push you to chase after several things at the same time. Variety, changes, far countries and perhaps even adventure (indeed risk taking) attract you. The capacity to defend your personal freedom and experience the things that you want aren't however always established or gained in advance. It also depend on your other vibrations that can help you there or on the contrary check your desire (particularly vibrations 2, 4 and 6). You would like to feel as free as the wind, not depending on anything or anyone. You show an attraction for adventure, the exploration of new areas, new physical sensations, movement, travelling. If you cannot blossom in reality you will certainly escape yourself from routine through reading. Especially books relating to adventure with a complete change of social background, country or century. You could have a tendency to search for contact, human relations, but without really wanting to deepen them or maintain them with steadiness. Your Desire Number pushes you to be a [seducer, seductress], magnetic, sensual, expansive and an enthusiast. You could privilege easiness, rapid and practical apprenticeship (through contacts, exchange or personal experimentation) rather than apprenticeship with books. Your curiosity, your taste for variety and your vivacity make you a likeable person, capable of adapting to new situations and quickly carrying things out (work and everyday endeavors) with an unusual speed. You are sufficiently versatile to feel at ease in quite diverse activities. Your faults could be instability, fickleness, spreading yourself a bit thinly, too much eagerness and a lack of meticulousness. At the extreme this vibration can push to excesses. You can look constantly somewhere else for your happiness, give in to temptations, search wildly for pleasures (5 senses) and not know how to stop yourself in time. Keep your lucidity in order to know how to put an end to all experience that begin to imprison you rather than enriching you. It is important for your balance and your evolution.

You have Desire Number 6. The accent is put in your consciousness on the importance of the family, the home, loved ones and harmony. Conciliation, tolerance and balance in relationships are very important elements in your universe. You contribute moreover to create a pleasant atmosphere, warm and comfortable, where you live. With such a vibration, you will be pushed towards the sense of duty and you will be at ease in positions of responsibility where the family, professional and sociocultural life is concerned. You are the ideal person to manage the relationships within a group. But your aptitudes don't stop there. Professions to do with art, aesthetics, decoration, body-care, commerce, catering or food are also your "things". The notions of beauty, aesthetics and harmony constitute the other fundamental components of your number 6 Desire Number. You aspire to a beautiful, peaceful, harmonious, balanced world, without useless suffering. You like to consider yourself as an aesthete, a perfectionist. You will certainly have an attraction or a talent for all to do with the arts and beautiful forms. Your particular sensitivity pushes you to respond without hesitation when someone asks for help, assistance, advise or attention. The people close to you are at ease. You are appreciated for your stability, your indulgence and your warm aura. There is a lot of understanding and compassion in you, but sometimes to your detriment because you risk strongly forgetting yourself. You work better when others share your responsibilities, this avoids you becoming overloaded. To conserve your serenity, you must be careful not to implicate yourself too much in the problems of others. Avoid those who want to discharge their negative emotions on you. Don't give too easily, rather increase your personal radiance.

In a general way, your intelligence is large and flexible but your mode of life is distinctly more inclined towards the respect for tradition. The balance in the sentimental area is absolutely primordial for you. Marriage and the home play a great role. You aspire to a perfect partner and you can be disappointed if you discover some faults which [he,she] doesn't want to correct. When both members of a couple have a number 6 vibration, ultra-conservatism (immobility) and a certain weakness can result from their mutual complaisance. In spite of appearances of gentleness and even passivity, the number 6 vibration is a real force, destined to make harmony reign. Use it !

You have Desire Number 7. Your motivations push you to search for calm and tranquility to meditate, observe, reflect and satisfy your desire for knowledge. The understanding of the mechanisms of life and the deep sense of things attracts you. You have a soul of a philosopher, searcher or analyst. People find you interesting. This vibration gives you intellectual abilities and a studious and applying character. You can be at ease in numerous activities : computer science, advanced technology, psychology, esoterism, accounting, stylism, philosophy, etc.. Although conventional, you find it hard to make small talk out of consideration for customs. On the other hand, you would appreciate constructive communication and interesting discussions. You don't like noise, you don't appreciate people altering your rhythm and you like even less having pressure put on you in the aim of getting something out of you. When your Desire Number animates you, you want to read, go for walks, observe, meditate or study, preferably alone and in peace, away from the agitation of the world. These tranquil interludes regenerate you. You profit from going out alone (or with someone who shares your aspirations) in beautiful places to recharge your battery. At some time or other you like to take stock of the situation. It is during these periods that you learn progressively to listen to your deep thoughts. Oddly your intellect shows a certain fear at losing control of yourself to the benefit of your more evolved inner self. Therefore be careful of getting carried away mentally. Your mind can trick you and make you lose contact with reality. It is useful in these cases to listen to the analyses and remarks that make good sense, from those around you. Your inner life is rich, your faculties of observation and reason are your assets, but on the other hand you are less at ease where your emotions and feelings are concerned. This handicap can be more or less accentuated according to the other aspects of your analysis. It would be good to learn how to have more confidence in your feelings and to express yourself more freely in the area of sentiments and relationships. Others sometimes find it difficult to understand you. Open up more, communicate, express yourself.

Here are the possible excesses of this number 7 vibration : a too great introversion, coldness, a character which is a little unsociable, a tendency to worry too much and sadness. Sometimes a disinterest or even a scorn for all that is plain, mundane or vulgar.

You have Desire Number 8. You are attracted by the idea of power, combativeness and authority. You are motivated by material challenges, sport, success, fame and money. You would like to be recognized by others, a leader, the one who manages, builds, wins and becomes enriched. However, be careful that those considerations don't affect your attitude towards others in a negative way (pride, intolerance, indelicateness or unscrupulous ambition). You like frankly and quick made business. The accent is put in your consciousness on the importance of power, ambition, endurance, courage and efficiency. Big projects don't frighten you and you are ready to put in the necessary effort and determination. This vibration can give you the taste for management, administration and organization. However, to succeed in such activities demands a certain mastery not always evident to acquire. This requires energy, a shrewd mind, clear-sightedness as well as an aptitude to manage several parameters ! It isn't a matter of playing the "chief" of staff, but of becoming the strategist capable of arranging the balance within a group, to motivate the people (the team), to improve the productivity, to see quickly the needs and meet them, to finally end up with the success of the enterprise.

The other important component of your Desire Number 8 is your generosity with those who you appreciate. You have a sense of justice and you like (or would like) to exercise your protective and "great lord" side. It is a good thing provided that you watch out for manipulators and hypocrites who know how to get skillfully things out of you in playing on your desire for social recognition. In fact you put too much importance on social status. Ideally, the number 8 vibration is associated with the qualities of courage, confidence, power and above all mastery. An aptitude that necessitates to work on the material level, of course, but also on the spiritual level (lucidity, a sense of moderation, courage, generosity). You find it valorizing to pass on your know-how to people that you choose and whom you want to help to be confident (you easily detect the unexploited potentials of those around you). On the other hand, you don't like weakness and inefficiency. You have rather a tendency to think that you must be generous with your friends and uncompromising with your enemies. Your strength of character and your combativeness make you rarely abandon a difficult or uncertain situation.

You have Desire Number 9. You aspire to a world where there wouldn't be incomprehension, criticism, threat, and any other cause of disharmony or distrust. In other words a more fraternal world. You put a lot of importance on moral values such as compassion, tolerance, altruism, equality and justice. Sensitivity is a major characteristic of your Desire Number. It can be expressed in the arts, by a taste for refined things. It can also mean a search for ideal. You are attracted by all that can open your mind : scientific knowledge, art, travelling, wide open spaces or contact with other cultures, other sensitivities. The accent is put in your consciousness on the necessity to detach yourself progressively from basic instincts and interests too centered in material things in order to be able to elevate yourself, improve yourself and use your mind for more interesting things. To have 9 as your Desire Number is synonymous with vocation, the ideal, humanism and the emotions. You could be motivated by varied activities such as justice, the arts, dance, cookery, fashion, culture, cinema, knowledge, new sciences, writing, teaching on a large scale or actions with a humanitarian character, from the moment that you can use your particular sensitivity. Rather than being concerned with small details, you prefer to have a good overall vision of beings and things, an ideal to follow or to live. Furthermore, you aren't insensitive to the advantages that come with the position of management. You like compliments and recognition. But strangely, it is necessary that you have a certain height, a detachment if you want to be efficient and stay balanced. If you involve yourself too much with the details of your activities, you risk losing your good rhythm, your usual efficiency and get carried away emotionally or even become depressed. The constrains of life in community and certain other harsh realities can upset you or make you lose your efficiency. Your strength will come from your capacity to stay above the scrum and free yourself from the expectation of recognition.

You have Desire Number 11. Only a minority will live the qualities of this master number, the great majority will have Desire Number 2, explained afterwards. You are motivated by energy, awakening and inspiration. Your intelligence and intuition are generally superior to the average. You search for a certain perfection. You would like to share your spiritual values, your beliefs. You communicate willingly with your friends about your ideas, your reflections and even your intuitions. Such a vibration often bestows a certain magnetism and creative capacities. If you are at ease, you give off an impression of strength. When your Desire Number animates you, you feel concerned about the needs of humanity. Your idealism pushes you to give assistance. This can lead towards the desire to be "the teacher who has the inspiration", the one who guides. The energy of this master number can also mean a desire to assert one's personality, to get out of rank, because the 11's have the secret desire to be admired or liked by others, while keeping their independence. That is the paradox of the 11 which reduces to 2.

You have Desire Number 2. Your deep motivation pushes you to strike up friendly relationships, to find associates, to search for a union preferably with a comfortable and warm environment. The accent put in your consciousness is on the importance of the following notions : co-operation, friendship, love, helpfulness, being sociable, tranquility, harmony between material and emotional values.
