Ask Anna

Dear Anna,

I guess you know I'd be writing to you. We've met once before at the old Youth Opportunity building in Kyle. My name is Sundown Montileaux. I was "The One" (astrological number). I'm writing in regards to the numbers one through nine, if you can explain them to me (and whoever else finds this column interesting). I truly believe you know a lot more than what your regular readers ask about, so can you please explain the astrological numbers to me? My birth day is 11-05-1983.

Thirsty for Knowledge

P.S. Some may be silly questions but I enjoy your column all the same. And, what is in store for me, money-wise if I went to Deadwood? Please Print My name so I'll know which one it is in case I forget my questions. Thank you Anna Bee. Have a good day!

Dear Sundown:

I am happy to answer the question conerning what you have referred to as "astrological" numbers. Really, astrology has similar indications, but what I offer here is a very basic lesson on basic numerology - or the Divine Influence of Numbers.

In 1987 the Ones Who Talk To Me, or "spirit" channeled this definition of the relationship to numbers in our dimention. Over these last 20 years I have discovered that the numbers do describe, with a fair amount of integrity and accuracy, the characteristics of a person, activity, place, or thing.

How do I figure out what my number is? You add the numbers, together, in what I describe as a horizontal mode, always reducing the number to a single digit. For instance, your birthday is: 11-05- 1983, and that equals a one. This is how that is done: 11+5+ = 16, and 16+19 = 35, and 35+83=118, and 1+1+8 = 10, and that equal 1+0 or One.

Following is a little "ditty" that I use to remember what the numbers mean. After I have given you the memory tool, I will follow up with a more thorough meaning of the number.

1-is for Win, 2-is for Me and You, 3-is for the Trinity, 4-is for No More, 5- is for Staying Alive, 6- is for picking up Sticks, 7-is for opening the Gates of Heaven, 8-is for laying them straight, and 9-is Just in Time.

One is for Win: Ones are lucky and they are about unity. They are good peace-makers. They understand total concepts more readily. One is a very powerful number. As a matter of fact, it is the only true number, as every other number is based on a group of ones, or a fraction or percentile of one. It is Numero Uno. The Best, Premier, Top of the Heap, King of the World, best crop in Kansas. If Ones are out of balance, they become self-absorbed. Sometimes, they get one-ish, or self-ish. Time usually helps them resolve this issue as they develop the understanding that as a one they are part of everything, never apart from the Source (or God) or the origin (the thought), so they can lose their fear and jealousy of others. Because they understand they are part of everthing and never separate from their responsibility for their own lives.they accept that they create the quality of their reality. It is good to be a one. Ones are the most versatile, and are good in all lines of work.

Two is for Me and You. Two's are all about others. They are sharing, and caring, loving, sympathetic, supportive, and self-less. They are the best of the altruistic (people that have very self-less, idealistic, and high giving natures), have a strong allegience with God , and would give their very lives to save others. The problems with a tow out of balnce are obvious. Sometimes they forget about themselves until they are all used up, drained, over the edge, and depleted. There are cautions for a two, the biggest one being not to forget yourself. Twos are very loving, very romantic, always "in" a state of loving, or searching for their relationship to share love within. They are complex, and tend to be too romantic in their expectations,and they have a tougher time staying with their mates because their demands for a consuming love being showered upon them can be exhausting and defeat that which they pursue. Twos, when they mature, are a very good bet for being the best mate ever. Twos are about me and you - that is all others. They are about their families. They are about their boss and making their boss look good. They are about relationships and ensuring that everyone else is happy and okay. When Twos are not yet mature, they tend to go through relationships like M&M's. They can consume their partners, with their attentiveness, and their constant need for reassurance that they are loved as much as they love. An immature Two is emotionally exhausting to others. Once a Two figures out that they are the other part of the relationship that they develop with others, and consider themselves just as important as everyone else, then they find the balance, and they lose that need for constant reassurance. Two's are good healers, but don't make good negotiators because they like to please others. They are good actors, artists, linguists, teachers, clergy, and any other job that is enhanced by compassion. Being a Two is good for the community, and good for me, and good for you.

Three is the Trinity. Perfect Balance and Harmony. Body, Mind and Spirit. They make good teachers, ministers, athletes, counselors, psycologists, community leaders, astronauts, accountants, and scientists. Their biggest bug-a-boo, before they mature into a true Three, is disharmony. They tend to let the body get out of control, with over-indulgence (food, drugs, alcohol, exercise, sex), they tend to over-think (worry and analyze and criticise), and they tend to either become monks, nuns, or ignore God altogether. Thier journey on the earth is to find balance, moderation in all things. A whacked out Three is very intensively involved in their imbalance. They usually really carry it to an extreme - but their saving grace is that internally, by their very nature they crave harmony. It rules their nature. That Harmony will reign them in from their over-indulgences of the body, mind, or Spirit, and bring them back to center. Threes are all about balance, so their lessons are centered around imbalance, and bringing it all back into harmony.

Fours: No Mores. Fours are here for the long-haul. They are giving and loving. They are true givers - but they live and love rules. They are always making them. They have a rule for everything. They love schedules. The No More part comes in when a Four decides they have had enough of anything, then they make a new rule. For instance, if a Four gives and gives and gives, and nobody cares, then they make a rule about not not allowing anyone to take advantage of them. If they suffer a bad relationship, then they make rules about other people's conduct and what they will or will not accept. They make great administrators and tax accountants. They are good at secretarial tasks, committee members that follow Robert's Rules, law enforcement officers, legal minds, mathamaticians, grammarians, prinicipals of schools, and military leaders. They love order. Things out of order cause them to make more rules. A Four in balance flows with the rules, and learns that rules are only temporary restraints protecting them from what they perceive as chaos. They are very neat and tidy. The mature Four spend the first half of his/her life making rules, and the second half releasing them. They are a karmic balance for the rest of us that disregard rules. Fours love education, and they love logical deductive reasoning. They have the hardest time with Spiritual or alternative approaches to what they consider logic. They are not very likely to want to take risks. They are the best and the worst rationalizers. If a Four falls into disarray or confusion, then they will most likely deduct it is because others are not complying with their rules. .When mature, a Four is the most loyal friend, mate, work-mate, and citizen that the world has ever seen. Fours make good leaders, but out of balance can become a dictator, they make great teachers, but when out of balance become disciplinarians, they are great ministers, but when out of balance become judgemental, and they make great statiticians, and when out of balance, formidable gamblers. They can keep track of anything and everything: inventory, money, sins, jokes, and even their own glasses. Fours. No Mores. Without them, there wouldn't be any safe travel, the planes would fall from the sky, the water would spill out of the rivers and we'd all drive on both sides of the road.

Fives: Staying Alive. Fives are survivors. They are the truest form of the Human Spirit, and have the greatest gift of resiliency. Fives tend to have rough childhoodswhere they develop their first survival skills. They work hard, and love physical labor. They have good mechanical ability. If the lights go out, your car doesn't run, or there isn't enough food, a Five is the guy or gal to have in your corner. They are ingenous at survival. When a Five gets out of balance it is because they are exhausted from this life-long business of surviving. A Five in imbance may develop a very keen criminal mind. They can steal you blind, and help you look for what they stole from you. They can con a con, and they can sweet-talk anyone into helping them. Fives, when in balance, make wonderful ecologists, forest rangers, land management people, food industry employees, farmers, ranchers, and any occupation that makes a difference in your survial or the life of Unci Maka (Grandmother Earth). Fives in balance are a true blessing to the Earth and Her People, but out of balance, watch out, hide your pocketbook and your pants. A good thing about Five's is that they are not selfish. They have kind hearts, they have hope for the future, and when in balance show the best of what a human being is with their resilience.

Sixes: Picking Up Sticks. Sixes are accumulators. They usually start out life with less than what they need or want. Sixes work very hard and they are stubborn and tenacious. Eventually, a Six will have what they want and need. They will accumulate, money, belongings, social status, mates, friends, understanding, wisdom. A Six in balance will set their site on accumulating wisdom, compassion, hope, security, respect, and honor and integrity. Out of balance, and they will use every skill, honest or devious to accumulate what they want. The are driven to own, consume, and accumulate. In balance they will accumulate a lifetime of proud lessons, words, and wisdom. They are great teachers. Out of balance, and they will sabotage their business partners, scheme murder for insurance money, burn down buildings for the same reason, or try and accumulate power by using others. They are the best of the best, and can be the worst of the worst. It's all about accumulating things or what I call the sticks that build the house. Sixes are virtually indefeatable. They are the best of friends, and the worst of enemies. We wouldn't have any empires if there were no Sixes. We wouldn't have any non profit organizations either.

Sevens: They open the Gateway to Heaven. A Seven in balance is a very idealistic type of person. They make great networkers and liasons. They love to introduce people to people, and they love new ideas, new approaches, and will do whatever they can to open up minds and opportunties for themselves and for others. They are gate openers to higher thinking, standards, money, science, philosophies, and love the idea of God. They make great missionaries, teachers, guidance counselors, employment counselors, computer programmers. Any type of employment that involved introducing new ideas and networking people. A Seven in balance can save the world with a new technology and with a new appraoch, and by putting the right people together to do the work. A Seven out of balance can run a pretty mean gang, the mafia, drug lords, and the like. They are great at negotiating. They are good with contracts and contacts, and mega politics. They are great orators, and can move people with their words, their music, their songs, their hope, and their unbelievable approach to conceiving an idea and creating the network to accomplish tasks. Great negotiators, networkers, politicians, and crime bosses.

Eights: Laying them Straight. Great Truth Tellers. Eight is Christ's number. Perfect balance, representing the flow of energy from the heavens to the earth, and right back again. Eight's make great carpenters, orators, teachers, healers, fishermen, and leaders. Eights tell their version of the truth. It doesn't mean that everything they say is truth, but it is their version of the truth. Eights are compassionate, loving, caring, and non-judgmental when they are in balance. Out of balance, just the opposite is true. Eight's are perceptive and intuitive. They get really good "gut" feelings about things. They also are usually pretty good at discerning the truth when they hear it. If an Eight is out of balance, then the whole world feels it. They are literally capable of creating Hell on Earth; but conversely, they are also able to create Heaven, wherever they go. They have the greatest potential to change the world. Eights are powerful, but it takes a lifetime journey for an Eight to understand just how powerful they are in terms of changing the world.

Nines: Just In Time. Nine's are people that are very old souls. They have at their fingertips the Wisdom of the Ages. . . but the problem may be, that they are so weary from lifetime's of stress and learning, that they may not care. Nines usually have a rough journey during their younger years so that they may regain the knowledge of life's lessons to help others, and accept their mission to do good work for the Highest Good of All. A Nine in balance is a person with a good deal of intuition, a strong belief in God, and does not get too bothered by the small troubles in their lives or the lives of others. A Nine out of balance, may end up defeated or disconnected from the rest of the world. They may forget to reconnect with God, and instead connect with despair, hopelessness, bitterness, anger and resentment. Nines make good teachers, communicators, healers, counselors, and any avenue of the arts and music. A Good Nine may save the world, but an imbalanced Nine could destroy himself/herself, and everyone around him/her.

Now, on your Deadwood chances. I see you winning, and winning about $1008.00, but only once. And the kicker is, I don't know when, that's why they call it gambling.
