CHAPTER XIX

Persons born on February 8ᵗʰ, 17ᵗʰ, 26ᵗʰ.

Number 8 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 Saturn (Negative) and Uranus in the Sign of Aquarius. Third House of the Triplicity of Air.

If born on February 26ᵗʰ. being so far advanced in the “cusp” of the in -coming Sign of Pisces ruled by Jupiter, you will come under the influence of the latter planet as well as that of Saturn (Negative ) and Uranus.             

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

The influence of Saturn (Negative) in this period of the year lasts up to February 19ᵗʰ, when the “cusp” of Pisces commences, but the influence of the incoming Sign does not come into its full power for seven days - namely until on or about February 26ᵗʰ.

If you were born on February 8ᵗʰ, J 7ᵗʰ or 26ᵗʰ you will have a very decidedly marked personality of your own, together with a life that will stand out among your fellows.

You will be a deep thinker, no matter what your career may be, but one with a philosophical turn of mind.

Very peculiar circumstances and opportunities will come into your life without your seeking them, also a strangely fatalistic current of affairs will sweep you into positions of responsibility, even without your seeking.

If born on February 26ᵗʰ the Jupiter influence will be likely to bring you greater success from a material standpoint, but all persons born under the influence of the “number eight” may expect sooner or later to be attacked by underhand enemies and to be the victims of calumny, scandal and hostile criticism.

Unless born “into money” the early years of such persons will be hard and difficult and will not give the promise of success that the latter yean bring into being.                                          

If you were born on any of these dates in February you may expect to meet severe trials and sorrows through your affections and in your home life.                                                  

Separation, illness or death is likely to play a strangely fatalistic role with those near and dear to you. Marriage will bring you some unusual experience out of the ordinary and should there be children they will cause you grief or serious anxiety. You will have more satisfaction mentally than materially. You will be likely to gain money, become rich or hold some powerful position, but for all such things you will be liable to pay too high a price.                

FINANCE

Persons horn on February 8ᵗʰ, 17ᵗʰ and 26ᵗʰ, can always make money, provided they apply themselves to that one purpose. This especially is the case for those born on February 26ᵗʰ. They will, however, be liable to lose money by actions caused by their opposite sex, or by litigation and by blackmail.

HEALTH

Persons born on these dates in February give the appearance of being more healthy than they really are. They get little or no warning about illness, they often suddenly collapse from heart failure or a clot of blood on the brain.

Numbers appear to have an important bearing on the lives of persons born on dates making ‘'fours” and “eights" in the month of February.

The reason the four and its series, such as 4, 13 and 22, has such influence in this month, is because it is under the Zodiacal Sign of Aquarius and is not only the House of Saturn, Negative, but it is at the same time the House of the planet Uranus ( 4 ) and also its “exaltation."

When we come to consider people born on the 26ᵗʰ of February, this being the “cusp" of Pisces, whose ruler is Jupiter (3), the vibrations change to those of eight and three, which enables persons born on February 26ᵗʰ to be more the master of their own destiny than those born on the same date in January or on February 8ᵗʰ or 17ᵗʰ.

Persons born on the 26ᵗʰ of February, having the Jupiter influence at their back, if I may be allowed to put it this way, will find themselves less restricted by circumstances, surroundings or family ties, and more free to carry out whatever their ambitions may be.

As a general rule all the “number eight” people, no matter what month they may be born in, have most decidedly marked characteristics of their own. They are either great successes or great failures. Things are inclined to go to extremes for them one way or another. They either play a great role on Life’s Stage, for good or evil, or remain as “souls in prison,” unable to break free.

In all cases, “number eight” people, and especially those (torn on this number in January and February, may be expected to lead unusual lives. It is this very law governing them, whether it is due to Fate or their own temperament, that they should endeavour to harness into whatever their purpose may be.

If you are born on any of these dates such as the 8ᵗʰ, 17ᵗʰ or 26ᵗʰ of February, your name is likely to go down to posterity for something unusual in your life or career.

It may not be given to you to be extremely happy in your home life or immediate surroundings, but you will stand out as “a personality” whenever you may live.                                         

You may make money by whatever work you may go in for, but the chances are, it will be taken from you by people or circumstances, and you should be advised to make provision for your old age.  

You should not engage in speculation of any kind, not because of bad judgment on your part, but simply for the reason, that conditions or circumstances over which you have little or no control are likely to crop up and rob you of financial certainty.

Your most important numbers are “fours” and "eights” and all their series, such as the 4, 8, 13. 17. 22, 26 and 31.

If born on February 26ᵗʰ the “three" and its series will play an important role and would be more fortunate for you to use than the “fours” and “eights.”Dates made by the “number three” would also be more lucky for you, such as the 3ʳᵈ, 12ᵗʰ, 21ˢᵗ and 30ᵗʰ.                                                                                          

The most favourable colours for you are the odd shades of blue of the sapphire order and all dark colours, except reds.

Your “lucky” jewels are the sapphire, black pearl and black diamond.     

The most important or climacteric years of your life are the 4ᵗʰ, 8ᵗʰ, 13ᵗʰ, 17ᵗʰ, 22ⁿᵈ, 26ᵗʰ, 31ˢᵗ, 35ᵗʰ, 40ᵗʰ, 44ᵗʰ, 49ᵗʰ, 53ʳᵈ, 58ᵗʰ, 62ⁿᵈ, 67ᵗʰ, 71ˢᵗ, 76ᵗʰ and 80ᵗʰ.

You will find a strong magnetic attraction to persons born on dates making a “four” or "eight" in any month of the year, such as the 4ᵗʰ, 8ᵗʰ, 13ᵗʰ, 17ᵗʰ, 22ⁿᵈ, 26ᵗʰ and 31ˢᵗ. But as a general rule those born on these dates will bring their troubles and sorrows on to your shoulders.
