CHAPTER CXVI

Persons born on December 5ᵗʰ, 14ᵗʰ, 23ʳᵈ.

Number 5 people in this month.

If you were born on any of the above dates in December, following the rules of Zodiacal Astrology and my system based on Chaldean Numerology, you come under the vibrations of Mercury 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. Persons born on the 5ᵗʰ, 14ᵗʰ or 23ʳᵈ of December will End the Mercury influence playing a very important role in their lives. They will have unusual mental activity, will be clever, quick-witted, but rather restless mentally and physically. They must always be actively engaged doing something with either their brains or their hands.

They are ambitious in their ideas, extremely independent and inclined to be positive in their views. They are also quick and impulsive in their likes and dislikes. At the same time, they have a splendid foundation of brain power to build on and if they will only hold their restlessness under control, they would do well in whatever they take up.

As a general rule they are intensely fond of sport, especially horse racing or anything to do with animals. They are inclined to have a “speed mania” and will risk life and limb in fast motor-cars or in airplanes ,if circumstances permit them to use such things. They seldom get through their career without having a bad "'smash up” and if not killed, they run the risk of being in some way badly crippled.                                               

If they can settle down, they are likely to do well in such things as literary work, science, medicine, law or leaders in a crisis.

They are intensely fond of argument or debate; they can be bitterly sarcastic, but once the “battle of words” is over, they bear no animosity or grudge against their opponent.          

They have much attraction for their opposite sex. They generally marry well, but the later they go in for the bonds of matrimony the better chance they will have of happiness.          

FINANCE

These persons nearly always make money, but in some odd way of their own. 

They are often very lucky in their investments especially by following their own intuitions, but they seldom have much regard for the value of money.                                                     

HEALTH

Persons born under the dates mentioned rarely suffer from any serious illness except those brought on by careless living and erratic diet. They appear to grudge the time to eat slowly and so bring on trouble with the digestive organs.

They are more or less prone to a nervous twitching in the eyes and face, and stammering or a lisp in speech.

If you were born on the 5ᵗʰ, 14ᵗʰ or 23ʳᵈ of December, although inclined to be sceptical of the influence of anything mystical, you will find that the series of “threes” and “fives” will crop up very much in your life. You should use dates making these numbers as much as possible, such as the 3ʳᵈ, 5ᵗʰ, 12ᵗʰ, 14ᵗʰ, 21ˢᵗ, 23ʳᵈ and 30ᵗʰ.

The best colours for you to wear will be all light shades with some touch of mauve, violet or violet-purple.

Your “lucky” jewels are the amethyst, diamond and all glittering stones.               

The most important or climacteric years of your life arc the 5ᵗʰ, 14ᵗʰ, 23ʳᵈ, 32ⁿᵈ, 41ˢᵗ, 50ᵗʰ, 59ᵗʰ, 68ᵗʰ and 77ᵗʰ.

You will be attracted to persons born in the series of the “three” and “five”, such as those born on the 3ʳᵈ, 5ᵗʰ, 12ᵗʰ, 14ᵗʰ, 21ˢᵗ, 23ʳᵈ, 30ᵗʰ in any month of the year.
