CHAPTER CXIII

Persons born on December 2ⁿᵈ, 11ᵗʰ, 20ᵗʰ, 29ᵗʰ.

Number 2 people in this month.

If you were born on any one of the above dates you come under the classification of a “Number Two” person. Following the rules of Zodiacal Astrology and my system based on Chaldean Numerology, you respond to the vibrations of the Moon, Neptune and Jupiter in the Zodiacal Sign of Sagittarius, Third House of the Triplicity of Fire.

The basic foundation of your character and disposition is described in preceding pages for persons born in December. As December 29ᵗʰ has passed beyond Sagittarius and has entered the incoming Sign of Capricorn, its characteristics are different from those given to the 2ⁿᵈ, 11ᵗʰ and 20ᵗʰ of December, and will be explained later.

Persons born on the 2ⁿᵈ of this month being more definitely under the influence of the Moon and Neptune, as a rule do not possess the forceful determined qualities of the “number one” persons previously described born under the influence of the Sun and Uranus. They will be more gentle, less optimistic and less self-confident.

They will live more on the spiritual plane of thought than the material. At the same time they will be endowed with mental gifts of a very high order. They will have a trend towards the study of philosophy, religion, mysticism, and occultism. They often have vivid dreams, and visions, together with a gift of prophecy, or at least an intuitive sense of how things are likely to turn out. They are as a rule, however, too sensitive to make much material use of their talents, unless they meet people extremely sympathetic to their point of view.

They appear to be natural teachers and would make a success of such a calling, or as followers of abstruse scientific subjects. They are great lovers of nature and have a longing to travel and see her wonders in far off countries.

They are refined in their tastes and fadists in regard to food.     

Naturally highly-strung and artistic, beautiful things appeal to them very strongly, such as works of art, music, painting, poetry and high class literature and eloquence.                      

They care very little whether they are rich or poor, they have wealth within themselves and are usually happy and contented with their own lot. Those born on the 11ᵗʰ and 20ᵗʰ are more positive and determined in their thoughts and actions.

If you were born on December 29ᵗʰ you will be a "number two” person in Capricorn, House of Saturn, and (Positive). This gives a more solid plodding disposition, willing to take on heavy responsibilities for others.

The Right Honourable W. E. Gladstone, one of England’s greatest statesmen born on December 29ᵗʰ, is a good example of a “number two” person born in this part of the year.              

FINANCE

In the gaining of money persons born on these dates in December are more or less indifferent, but in general they rise to occupy high positions. For some purpose in life, or to give help to others, they may force themselves to work for gain, but they rarely do it for any real personal advantage.                  

HEALTH

Health as a rule is not a good point in such persons lives. They are seldom robust or strong although they often have large frames. The food they eat does not appear to give them the nourishment they require and unless they live in a high and dry climate they are liable to have lung trouble and delicacy of the bronchial tubes, trouble with the throat and rheumatism in the joints.                                                                                           

If you were born on any of the dates mentioned, your important numbers come under the series of the “twos,” “threes” and “sevens.” The best dates for you to use in any month, are the 2ⁿᵈ, 3ʳᵈ, 7ᵗʰ, 11ᵗʰ, 12ᵗʰ, 16ᵗʰ, 21ˢᵗ, 23ʳᵈ and 29ᵗʰ.

You should wear in some part of your dress such colours as green, white, cream, dove-grey; also delicate shades of mauve, violet or violet-purple. Your “lucky” jewels are pearls, moonstones, moss-agate, green or grey jade; also the amethyst and all violet coloured stones.                                                                 

The most important or climacteric years of your life are the 2ⁿᵈ, 3ʳᵈ, 7ᵗʰ,11ᵗʰ, 12ᵗʰ, 16ᵗʰ, 21ˢᵗ, 26ᵗʰ, 29ᵗʰ, 30ᵗʰ, 34ᵗʰ, 38ᵗʰ, 43ʳᵈ, 47ᵗʰ, 48ᵗʰ, 52ⁿᵈ, 57ᵗʰ, 61ˢᵗ, 65ᵗʰ and 70ᵗʰ.                                        

You will be attracted to people born in the series of the “two, three and seven”, such as those born on the 2ⁿᵈ, 3ʳᵈ, 7ᵗʰ, 11ᵗʰ,12ᵗʰ, 16ᵗʰ, 20ᵗʰ, 21ˢᵗ, 25ᵗʰ, 29ᵗʰ, 30ᵗʰ, in any month of the year, also those born in the number “one” series.

*  A few days after my meeting H. R. H. Prince George, the youngest son of the King and Queen, I received the following gracious letter from him:

"Buckingham Palace, June 9, 1928.

“Dear Count Hamon:

Thank you so much for sending me your book 'World Predictions' which I am very pleased to have. It was very kind of you to read my hand the other day and I shall be much interested to see my horoscope, if, and when, you have the inclination to work it out.

Again many thanks.

Yours sincerely, George."

** I met the Right Honourable W. E. Gladstone through Sir H. M. Stanley. It was just one year before he passed to his long and well-earned rest, when "£ngland's Grand Old Man” invited me to come and see him at his country place Hawarden Castle in Cheshire, I have given very fully in my Memoirs, my interview with one of the most distinguished statesmen England ever produced.

Being a great mathematician and fond of figures, he took a deep interest in my System of Numbers and worked out in my presence the birth-dates of many of the prominent persons he knew so well.

I have published in my Memoirs the autographed photograph be gave me on the occasion of my visit, while in my "Language of the Hand” I have reproduced the impression of his hand. Both are dated August 3ʳᵈ, 1897.
