Notes from Beyond-Reach Numerology

The Master Visionary - the energy of 22'

As we climb into the ether of the Upper Realms, we rise from the Master energy of 11', the Bridge to the equally 'hard to hold' energy of 22', the Master Visionary. Did you notice that every Master is an amplification of its original base number? So, 11' is the acceleration of 1', the Alchemist, 'I Am', I create and serve justice. 22' is the acceleration of 2', the Intuitive, 'I Feel', I wish to bring my Vision to action.

The energy of 22' is joyful - quite simply people who come into this life with this energy feel the joy and wonder of the Universe. They want to create and share their vision and drive with the world. The energy of 22' is infectious - and people are drawn to those that have this luminous energy.

In my cards, the colour of 22's energy is orange. The element is Fire, and the drive is masculine and one of action. In Tarot, 22' is represented by the Fool. If you have a deck, you will see that the Fool carries the 'knowledge of all of the Numbers preceding it in his bag over his shoulder'. In short, he carries 'the wisdom of the Universe', and wants to share it and build a new world.

Remember, the challenge of Master work is also amplified. If you have 22' energy, you must be able to cast away your doubts, hesitation, and fears in order to share your Vision. It is one thing to imagine a perfect world - quite another to boldly build one. Master of 22' must keep in mind that the goal of a better world is not just for them, but for everyone. They must make people believe in their honorable quest lest they suffer appearing as the shadow side of the Fool, spreading joy and empty dreams that can't come true.

Have a read through the cards of 22'. It is an ineffable energy - so worth taking a pause to enjoy and remember what 'happiness' feels like.

The Tarot of 11'

Something has been telling me to talk to you a little bit more about the energy of 11'. Let's use Tarot to do this. Have a long look at the Major Arcana card for 11', which portrays the ideas of Justice (from the Radiant Rider-Waite deck). The figure of the woman is sitting on a throne holding a sword and scales. The sword represents the desire 'to defend and see things right; righteousness'. The scales suggest the ideas of 'creating balance and harmony' in one's life. This is a big mission for a Soul to carry out in this life.

From Wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justice:

.."Justice, according to Plato, is about balance and harmony. It represents the right relationship between conflicting aspects within an individual or a community. He defines justice as everyone having and doing what they are responsible for or what belongs to them.[3] In other words, a just person is someone who contributes to society according to their unique abilities and receives what is proportionate to their contribution. They are in the right place, always striving to do their best, and reciprocating what they receive fairly and equitably. This applies both at the individual level and at the organizational and societal levels.[4]"...

Notice the words, "represents the right relationship between conflicting aspects within an individual or a community". An 11' Soul is coming into life with ancestral history and desire 'of wanting to see things right'. Therein lies the rub... How do you tune into the stories of the past and the urge that one feels to do right, but yet stay connected and present in the life you are trying to lead? Remember, the use of 'static electricity in trying to tune in the radio' from the last post? The questions of 'acting true and honourable for all' must be asked throughout an 11's life.

Master work requires learning to focus the Soul's gift to listen within and without - and the pause for wisdom to understand the actions that may be needed for 'justice'. Think how hard this might be in our world at the moment? And, yet there are many who have come to Earth to hold this energy and do this work at such a critical time. 11's hold this wish, in order to achieve 'enlightenment' not only for themselves, but for the cause of 'enlightenment for humanity'.

As a reminder and reflection, now read about 11' and review the Guidance cards. Does this bring more weight to the title of last month's post, "the Higher the Fewer"?

11’ is Deep Red and the first of the Higher Numbers. This energy represents The Bridge. The challenge of this task is to ‘Discern and Balance’ the messages being brought from the Higher Realms, and within reason put in action the knowledge that is received.

1 + 1= 2’, “I am the Bridge and believe in my Intuitive Power to Lead”. Feminine, Air.

The Higher - the Fewer

The next Number in our sequence of energies would have been 10', The Wheel of Fortune. We discussed 10' at the beginning of 2026= 10'. Have a glance backward in our Medicine posts, if you'd like to be reminded. Let's begin now with the first of the higher Master Numbers, 11' The Bridge.

I want you to imagine the chakra chart from last week in your mind. Remember, the placement of Numbers 8' and 9', external to the body, but in the initial ethereal field of the body. Now, imagine where 11's energy might be located. "Our bodies are attached to Earth, but our Minds and Souls can connect to the Above and Below if we allow ourselves to travel". At first, it may be difficult to 'tune into' 11's energy, and it may sound like static electricity on a radio. Fine tuning can only be had by practice and a gentle touch.

From my "Numerology for the Soul Guidance Cards booklet":

11’ is Deep Red and the first of the Higher Numbers. This energy represents The Bridge. The challenge of this task is to ‘Discern and Balance’ the messages being brought from the Higher Realms, and within reason put in action the knowledge that is received.

The voices of our Ancestors and Guides, and our own Soul Spirit may at times seem chaotic and difficult to understand. The lesson is to believe in your power and use this higher guidance to help yourself and others.

1 + 1= 2’, “I am the Bridge and believe in my Intuitive Power to Lead”. Feminine, Air.

My teacher believed that humanity wasn't capable of understanding, balancing, and managing the connection and lessons of the Higher Numbers. And, yet I have seen these energies coming through with much hope and courage in people's "Roads of Enlightenment, and in the Expression of their names". There are not many - but they are there. Hence, 'the Higher the Fewer' willing to try.

“Some day the time will come when all the double-digit master numbers will become active as we grow in consciousness to the point where our inner urges will increase, and the higher and higher vibrations will be felt”. Dr. Julia Seton

It is all about Energy

We have been on a very big journey through the energy, vibration, resonance, and tone of the Numbers 1' - 9'. But really, we have been meeting the Number Archetypes. In order to bring definition to each number, we have looked at placement of energy in the chakra system of the body, the elemental energy of each number, the gender energy, and the Tarot character of the numbers. If you have just joined us, please feel free to read through the past Medicine posts. And, to those who have been following, it is always useful to review and remind yourselves of where we are on the journey.

Have you found your Destiny energy yet? The Destiny calculation is the first - and most important "Road of Enlightenment" for your Soul story. The other three Roads support and enhance your Destiny journey. In time, we will be going through the calculations for all your Roads, as well as your Expression in this life. We will be defining the Medicine Wheel of your life. But for now, let's consider what we have learned. It is always rewarding to consider the role of energy.

If you have done your Destiny calculation, and if it is within the Numbers of 1' - 9' - try placing your energy within the chakra chart. Remember, 1' is at the root of the body traveling upwards to 7' at the crown. 8' and 9' are above the crown and external to the body. Look for the colours of 8' being silver, and 9' being gold in the outer chakra field.

As we have said all along in our calculations, "If you get a Master Number of 10', 11', 22', and 33' do not reduce. We will be discussing the importance of the Master energies next. It is a good time for a pause, for a breath, and for a deep consideration of the importance of the Numbers and the Soul lessons each one has brought. Human life is about the 'Enlightenment journey'. It is about the joining of the mind, the body, and the Soul to become your experienced wisdom. "May it be so"...

My loving husband brought me a song poem today, without knowing I was writing this post. It is so incredibly beautiful and perfectly timed. I hope you can feel its importance as much as I...

Wise Man in your Heart

I met a man, a wise old man, the day I lost my pride. He told me he belonged to me but from me he would hide. And that I would not hear his voice until I learned to sing. Now every time I sing I know that I belong. Belong to him.

Singing O why... Singing O why...

He told me he would teach me everything I tried to know. He made me see that you and me are dreamers in a show. And when the days were darkest then he lit them with his moons. And then we crossed the rainbow bridge but we came back... Came back too soon...

Singing O why... Singing O why...

He showed me where he was that man that man I could not see. He pointed to the sky until a ladder I could see. I climbed for many lives to find the secret golden flower. And then I woke and found I'd slept for less than half... Than half an hour.

Singing O why... Singing O why...

He brought us back together then when I was all alone. He made me see I was not just of earth and skin and bone. O, it makes you feel so beautiful you can tell your Self apart. Everytime you listen to the wise man in your heart.

Singing O why... Singing O why...

Gong, Daevid Allen, 2000

The Hermit. The energy of 9'.

The energy of 9' is 'completion'. People with this energy feel very deeply the need to make a space of their own, and one outside of the noise and hustle of everyday life. 9' people seek quiet - almost like a medicine for their Soul in order to integrate the knowledge they've accumulated through hard won lessons in this life and past lives. They become the Hermit. That isn't to say they won't interact with others and help when they can - it is just that they need to set boundaries on that help and save some for themselves.

9’ is Gold and represents your Soul Star Chakra located within the body and without creating a secondary and higher auric field. This is your Soul remembering all its life stories and wisdom. It is the energy of “I am all that I have been – I am here to Complete. I wish to share my knowledge”. The Hermit. Masculine, Earth.

(from "Beyond-Reach Numerology for the Soul Guidance Cards" booklet. You can find these cards under the Numerology Readings section)

Try to picture in your mind, the energy of 9' filling your Soul. It's golden vibration makes your spirit resonate with all the lessons of the lower numbers you've traveled. You feel the wisdom that you have collected, and in some way you wish to share that with others, but also feel your own place in the Universe and your importance. The Tarot shows the Hermit holding a lantern out in the dark. Maybe, this lantern is as much for yourself as it is for others, in that it shows and reminds of 'enlightenment'. "I belong to all things in balance - the above, the below, and in the world of now. And, with that knowledge I complete myself". If you have a destiny of 9', don't be in such a hurry. Wonderful wisdom is gained by slow and wise steps... let yourself feel this process.

Have a read through the Essence, Challenge, and Healing cards. Do you have a Destiny of 9'? Add the birth date, month, and year you were born to gether to get a Number. Then, reduce that Number to its smallest component/root. If you get a Master Number of 10', 11', 22', and 33' do not reduce. In time, we will discuss the importance of the Master energies.

*Note: The energy of today:

27 (9') + 2' + 2026=2055=12= 3' The Artist

In a sense, the Hermit of 9' joins forces with the Intuitive of 2' to create the destiny of 3', the Artist. "In the quiet, are you listening to your own intuition to guide and help you express yourself"?

This image is from a visit I took to Norwich Cathedral, Norfolk, UK. I thought the hidden stairwell perfectly caught the feeling of 9', The Hermit.

Strength. The energy of 8'.

We have made it through the central and primary lessons brought by the Numbers 1' to 7' - from the root to the crown of the chakra energies. These initial energies are meant to teach us about how our Body, Mind, and Soul can work in together in harmony. It is all about understanding and building our inner world. For the first time, the energy of 8' allows us to escape the body - and reach for new meaning in the outer world. Like the beautiful white egret in the photo, we see ourselves from above being able to gaze down on our progress, and then reach for the stars and Upper Realms on 'how to grow bigger'. This certainly means maintaining our hard earned inner 'Strength' to stretch our capabilities further.

"The energy of Number 8’ is Silver and represents the Star Connection chakra located just above your head and surrounding the body with an auric field. This is the energy of “I Connect to the Higher Realms and to Divine Love”. I wish to build my Inner Strength with this energy. Feminine, Fire".

(from "Beyond-Reach Numerology for the Soul Guidance Cards" booklet. You can find these cards under the Numerology Readings section)

The Tarot card for 8' is Strength, and is represented by a beautiful maiden 'holding and taming a lion'. The poetry of that image speaks for itself. The maiden is you, learning to blend, control, and gift your inner world to a bigger outer world that needs your meaning and contribution. In our Western culture, some mistake 8's power to be defined simply through money, position, and material things. The beauty of 8' is in the wisdom that there is more in our lives than this. The 'silver lining' is in belonging to and sharing in community. It is the understanding of being part of the human family, and the natural and earthly world.

Have a read through the Essence, Challenge, and Healing cards. Do you have a Destiny of 8'? Add the birth date, month, and year you were born to gether to get a Number. Then, reduce that Number to its smallest component/root. If you get a Master Number of 10', 11', 22', and 33' do not reduce. In time, we will discuss the importance of the Master energies.

The Spirit Seeker. The energy of 7'.

When I reflect over the years, one of the most mentioned and loved Numbers for people has been 7'. Most of the time, they don't know why - they just feel a pull to the energy of 7'. If there is a Number that wishes to encourage 'the wonder and meaning of being human - it is the Spirit Seeker'. Questions like, "What is the meaning and purpose of life? What does this mean to me? Can I find belief in my purpose"?

Perhaps, a way to understand 7', is to review our progress through the Chakra system of the body. Envision in your mind, and try to travel up through the lessons of these energies and feel them within:

Root Chakra, Number 1', The Alchemist, "I Am"

Sacral Chakra, Number 2', The Intuitive, "I Feel"

Solar Plexus Chakra, Number 3', The Artist, "I Express"

Heart Chakra, Number 4', The Builder, "I Build"

Throat Chakra, Number 5', The Pathfinder, "I Change"

Third Eye Chakra, Number 6', The Lovers, "I See"

Crown Chakra, Number 7', The Spirit Seeker, "I Seek"

Number 7' can be seen as the Mind/Ego perceiving itself. It has traveled through the all the inner lessons of the Numbers, and now there is a 'need/want for placement in the Universe'. Balance can be found in 'Spirit Seeking' by looking outwards at different belief systems, nature, art, music... The list could go on infinitely, but the important message is to "Seek outside yourself, and your Mind/Ego for different ideas and perspective". In a way, Spirit Seeking is a good check/balance system to keeping yourself grounded.

The colour of 7' is violet. The element of Water represents 7'. Perhaps, this means to keep your inner knowledge of Self/Identity 'flowing' in the World. Do not become romanced and enclosed by your Ego. The energy of 7' is masculine - take action through flow. It is a hard question to ask, but "What meaning do I have in the world, if I do not look outside myself to become bigger than my own individual beliefs and wants"?

Have a read through the Essence, Challenge, and Healing cards. Do you have a Destiny of 7'? Add the birth date, month, and year you were born together to get a Number. Then, reduce that Number to its smallest component/root. If you get a Master Number of 10', 11', 22', and 33' do not reduce. In time, we will discuss the importance of the Master energies.

Happy New Year! What kind of energy does 2026 bring us?

Let's take a brief pause from our Number Archetype journey, and remind ourselves of what 2025 brought us, and what 2026 will be asking from us.

If you add the numbers of 2025, you will get 9'. We have not discussed the energy of 9' in our Medicine Journal, but in short it is about 'finding completion'. In Tarot, it is the Hermit. What if we look at those two aspects together? I think most of us would say the World as we've known it has changed, and 'the old ways' no longer work or serve. The external changes we have gone through have caused many of us to hermit, and find quiet in order to understand and plan where we would like to be in the future. That means completing loose ends and letting go of past identities to finding more robust and sustainable ways of living. "Change is inevitable", and either we embrace it or be taken over by it". Change waits for no one.

In a sense, the completion in 2025 ushers in the change of 2026. 2026 added together gives us 10', the Wheel of Fortune in Tarot. The old saying, "The Wheel must turn - and so must I" comes to mind. The Wheel is about opportunity and new ways - it can not be stopped. And, so we must ask, "Am I ready for it - did I complete myself during 2025"?

The colour of 10' is copper. The Wheel turns with the element of Fire. It is both masculine for action, and feminine for flow. 10' is about 'leading ourselves' into the future. We must take responsibility for our Wheel. No outside force can give us our Fortune - we must make it. Have a look at the cards of 10'. What messages do they give you?

"I never had a gift but one, to know when the great wheel gives to a touch, to know and act".
Ursula K. Le Guin, The Left Hand of Darkness. 1969.

The Lovers. The energy of 6'

The Number 6' is all about love. What better Number energy to close out the year, and remind and gift ourselves at Christmas time.

The colour of 6' is indigo. The chakra energy of 6' is located in the Third Eye:

"Located in the center of your forehead between your eyebrows, the Third-Eye Chakra is a profound energy center that holds the power to connect us with our intuition, heighten our perception, and illuminate our destined path in life". Google

"In our chaotic lives, we are all searching for purpose, direction, and wisdom. It is in these moments that the Third-Eye Chakra, or Ajna Chakra, can help".

https://www.arhantayoga.org/blog/ajna-chakra-your-third-eye-chakra-awakening/

The element of Air represents Number 6'. It is said, that higher wisdom comes through Air. The energy of 6' is masculine represented by fire, and feminine represented by water. In all aspects, it is fair to say that the emotions surrounding love 'feel like fire and water'. The challenge in 6' is to bring these two elements into balance, and face the deeper responsibilities of love. Everyone 'loves being in love', and in the initial romance of this energy. The work comes later in how to hold love with commitment, respect and trust. This is where the Third Eye of intuition and wisdom come into play. "What does love need to continue and grow"?

In Tarot, Number 6' is the Lovers. The card speaks for itself. The beauty of partnership is represented with romantic intent. But, looking deeper "what does it take to keep that love fresh and filled with patience and grace"? As the saying goes, love makes the world go round. In reality, that means we make the world go round with love. Are "we facing the challenges we need to love others as we would love ourselves"? The world as it is right now, needs us to remember love's true meaning and energy. That is a good thought to visit over the holidays, and into the New Year. "How do you Love"?

Have a read through the Essence, Challenge, and Healing cards. Do you have a Destiny of 6'? Add the birth date, month, and year you were born together to get a Number. Then, reduce that Number to its smallest component/root. If you get a Master Number of 10', 11', 22', and 33' do not reduce. In time, we will discuss the importance of the Master energies.

The Number 5' is 'the Pathfinder'. It brings to mind the beautiful poem by Robert Frost:

The Road Not Taken, By Robert Frost
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.


The colour of 5' is a light blue. The chakra energy of 5' is located in the throat. To understand 5', we need to review the journey we have taken so far through the chakra body system.
1': Root chakra. I Am
2: Sacral Chakra. I Feel
3': Solar Plexus. I Express
4': Heart. I Build
5': Throat. I Pathfind

The element of Earth holds and strengthens this Number. This energy is Masculine and one of action.

In Tarot, Number 5' is the Hierophant (the Priest, the Shaman). The Hierophant understands societal belief systems, rules and laws, and what it means to be a 'good human' - and seeks to keep balance in all things. In order to understand balance, the Hierophant must challenge themselves to seeking out 'the truth in all things and speaking it' (throat). Just as in the poem, this may mean taking 'the road less traveled' to hear and experience as much as they can to seek higher meaning/truths, and share that knowledge with others. Anyone who carries this energy will say it is not easy, but it is quietly fulfilling and an enriching soulful life.

Have a read through the Essence, Challenge, and Healing cards. Do you have a Destiny of 5'? Add the birth date, month, and year you were born together to get a Number. Then, reduce that Number to its smallest component/root. If you get a Master Number of 10', 11', 22', and 33' do not reduce. In time, we will discuss the importance of the Master energies.

"The Pathfinder is an Adventurer looking for Truth in the World". There is always need for Pathfinders - but will we see and hear their wisdom? We all need a little Pathfinder in us...
