CHAPTER XVI

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

Number 5 people in this month.

If you were born on any of the above dates, following the rules of Zodiacal Astrology and my system of Chaldean Numerology, you come under the vibrations of Mercury, with Saturn ( Negative ),in the Zodiacal Sign of Aquarius, Third House of the Triplicity of Air.

The basic foundation of your character and disposition is described in previous pages for persons born in February.

The combination of Mercury and Saturn in this period, is good to be born under, as the qualities of Mercury are influenced by the conscientious painstaking nature of Saturn and is excellent for mental development.      

If born on February 23ʳᵈ being in the “cusp" of the incoming Sign of Pisces, ruled by Jupiter, you will be very dominant and independent in your character, and care little whether the world appreciates your work or not.

All these dates in February produce a keenly critical frame of mind. They give a penetrating knowledge of human nature, with a curiously strong influence over others. Such persons have a remarkable power of “the eye,” easily subduing excitable people and compelling them to listen to reason and logic. As doctors they have an almost uncanny power of diagnosis. They are great readers, rapidly absorbing what they read or hear, with retentive memories which they draw upon when the occasion requires for the benefit of others. They love science and all proved facts. They are sceptical of theories and yet at heart are metaphysically inclined. They are not seekers for wealth or position, but at the same time are extremely ambitious that their work should become recognised.             

Although very self-contained, they deeply appreciate encouragement and will do almost anything for a few words of praise or kindness.

If disappointed in their ambitions they easily become morbid and melancholy.  

FINANCE

As regards money matters, persons born on these dates in February are excellent in giving advice to others on financial questions, but rarely can follow it for themselves. They often nuke money and become wealthy by the work of their brains, but they seldom can hold on to it or make much provision for their old age. If you were born on any one of these dates, I would strongly advise you not to go in for any speculative business, but to only risk investments in such things that would be under your own control. People will always be ready to take from you, but to give you as little as possible in return.

HEALTH

As a general rule you will be healthy and full of energy, but in periods liable to complaints of the liver, spleen, kidneys and bladder. There is one set of people born on these dates in February who, if born with money, ruin their constitutions by their craving for strong drink, drugs and extravagant living. These persons are easily recognized by their lack of purpose, restlessness and extreme irritability.                                             

If you were born on February 5ᵗʰ, 14ᵗʰ or 23ʳᵈ, your best numbers are the series of “fives” and dates such as the 5ᵗʰ, 14ᵗʰ and 23ʳᵈ in any month of the year, but more especially so during February, June and September.

For favourable colours you should wear all light shades, especially white or glistening materials.               

Your “lucky” jewels are diamonds and white glittering stones of all kinds.             

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

You will find a strong magnetic attraction to persons born on dates making a “five” in any month of the year.
