First Day of the Month

All people with a first birth day are referred to as One personalities. They enter the world well equipped to face life with qualities of self-preservation, self-determination, independence, and self-consciousness. These attributes, among others, of the 1 vibration, form their fundamental personality structure. They do not need boosting of self-confidence since a strong sense of self-identity is a natural characteristic. Children with this birth day grow into leaders and decision makers, with the capacity to stand on their own feet early in life. Non-dependency, self-sufficiency, and self-promotion are some of their motivating forces.

As firm individualists, they will spend much time attending to their own affairs. They do not need, nor do they look for, frequent help or guidance from loved ones or others. Many would, in fact, resent excessive interest or interference in their decisions and actions. However, on the occasions One children feel the need to gain the attention of anyone, they do so without hesitation or consideration of the person, time, or place. Fluency of speech and an extensive vocabulary may not be among their best attributes, but they get their way by assertive and emphatic speech, and demanding body language. Being generally self-centered, the object of all their thoughts is their individuality. If they apply their attention to some other person, it will usually be in connection with that person's usefulness to themselves.

Most One personalities possess the willpower to do what they want or not to do what they do not want. They will not be led or misled by their peers. Although self-centered by nature, siblings, schoolmates, and friends can depend on their qualities of leadership, authority, and practicality whenever help or protection is required. A One child's first day at school will not be a traumatic experience. In the event of the break-up of a family unit, a One child has the capacity to take over to a fair extent the responsibilities of a parent. However, cooperation and sharing are not natural qualities found in these children or adults. "Whatever is mine is mine, and whatever is yours is yours" is their natural attitude. These children should not be expected to willingly share their toys and other possessions. They may give but not share. The 1 vibration's strong sense of ownership is responsible for this attitude. This is also a vibration that prompts its subjects to go out and acquire and keep on acquiring. These attributes will eventually be reflected in the responsible use of money and material possessions.

Most One children are of an extroverted nature. In some rare instances, however, they can be loners. They are not easily amenable to restrictions, discipline, or censure. They can also be deeply resentful of criticism. They might react with defiance and rebelliousness. Strong egos and pride are basic attributes of the 1 vibration. They seldom admit that they have been in the wrong. Quite early in life they may develop expertise in justifying themselves in whatever they say or do, whether right or wrong. With a firm "I" and "my" mentality, they exhibit a strong, competitive spirit. They play to win in any form of competition and are not usually gallant losers. Emerging qualities of willpower, decisiveness, determination, leadership, courage, independence, self-reliance, guardianship, aggression, and obstinacy will be observed early in life, developing into fully fledged characteristics as they grow older.

As the 1 vibration operates within the physical plane, these children may not display or express much sentimentality. Sooner rather than later, they break loose from the affectionate and cuddly stage as they feel little need to be constantly kissed and hugged. A One child will cry — and cry loudly — in frustration or anger when deprived of something they want but not for sentimental reasons. Their emotions will be demonstrated in deeds, exceptional loyalty, and a protective manner toward all loved ones. One children are not likely to be bullied in school. However, some could turn into bullies if they have been nurtured in a quarrelsome home environment or exposed to the wrong role models.

One children possess a physically active temperament. For the most part, they learn through observation rather than direct instruction. They will need astute guidance if they are to reach a balance between study, play, and other responsibilities. Once set upon a course of action, a One child, or a One adult for that matter, is not likely to give up. They possess a high sense of achievement that they are loathe to surrender. One children have the capacity to resist demands or expectations not conducive to their natural abilities. A few who may suffer a temporary setback created by domineering parents soon come into their own as they grow older and begin acting under their own steam. Future employment prospects will always be good due to the 1 vibration's attributes of ambition, competition, self-promotion, enterprise, initiative, motivation, originality, and willpower. If these Ones do not end up as leaders in one form or other, they will be found striking out on their own as their own masters. On the rare occasions they enter into partnerships, they will hold the role of senior partner. The following is a summary of differences in One personalities when their birth months are taken into consideration.

Ones Born in January (first month)

A birth date containing different numbers or vibrations in the birth day and birth month provides two or more avenues for self-expression, those of the birth day being formative and the birth month contributory. The birth year, too, provides vibrations that contribute toward the formation of the integral personality. But these are minor forces that do not exercise an appreciable influence.

In the event of the birth day and birth month being the same as it is in One personalities born in the first month, the individual, on the one hand, does not possess a second significant opening for self-expression. On the other hand, attributes of the birth day vibration are intensified by repetition. Depending on the nature of the vibration of the birth day, such intensification may not always result in a strengthening of the integral personality. It may, in fact, give rise to certain negative aspects of the birth day vibration. This is a condition that can only be found with single-digit birth days.

In the case of a One personality, the repetition of the 1 vibration in the birth month could result in a strengthening of some 1 attributes and the hardening in negative ways of others. For instance, willpower, concentration, self-sufficiency, vital energy, memory, persistence, individuality, creativity, and single-mindedness are some attributes that are strengthened. At the same time, the personality tends to live in a black-and-white world with few shades of gray. Rigidity, inflexibility, a restricted imagination, dogmatism, obstinacy, fear, sensitivity egotism, and above all, a real difficulty demonstrating emotion, are some problems. These children soon grow out of a need for close body contact. They can easily be misunderstood. The truth is that they are by no means insensitive toward loved ones as they do possess a soft center of love and loyalty. They display these attributes only on their own terms and in their own ways. Family ties are exceptionally strong. A first name reducing to 2, 3, 5, 6, or 9 will be best.

Ones Born in February (second month)

One personalities born in the second month possess an inlet for receiving and coping with emotion as well as an outlet for demonstrating emotion. However, as the 1 vibration is the controlling force, these One personalities are not subject to their emotions. The vibration symbolized by the number 2 is a genteel, sensitive, and receptive force. The 1 vibration is known for expenditure of energy, while the 2 is known for storage of energy. The 2 vibration's position in the birth month of a One personality has the effect of smoothing many rough edges of the personality. Inconsideration for the feelings of others, lack of cooperation, and demanding ways are some 1 qualities that are tempered by the 2. Some 2 qualities may emerge unconsciously from time to time, but their application for a balance within the personality is best done through conscious effort. Refer to the chapter on the second day of the month for a better understanding of these One personalities. These children will be more amenable to instruction and discipline than those born in the first, tenth, eleventh, fifth, or eighth months. It may be best to avoid a first name reducing to 1, 4, or 8. These vibrations may intensify the demanding and stubborn nature on the 1 aspect of the personality and stifle the helpful and cooperative nature of the 2 aspect.

Ones Born in March (third month)

Individuality, originality, leadership, and other self-sufficient qualities of the 1 vibration are reinforced in those born in the third month. At the same time, arbitrary, dogmatic, and controlling tendencies are reduced by open, youthful, friendly, and courteous attributes of the 3 vibration. The outlook of the personality is expanded, and flexibility is introduced. Self-consciousness and self-centeredness are characteristics shared by the 1, 2, and 3 vibrations, but they can be penetrated in the One personality born in the third month by gentle reminders to which a pure One may be immune. The chapter on the third birth day provides more details on this secondary aspect. Hardly any conflict will be experienced in the merger of the 1 and 3 forces. These children may not always conform to parental rules and regulations. Freedom of action and movement are their chief motivating forces. Do not expect much demonstration of emotion. They are loving and lovable children, but they pass the cuddly stage early in life. Discovery and adventure are much more attractive than intimacy and emotional contact. However, as they grow older, a strong romantic element will manifest itself. Emotion may be displayed in angry outbursts or tantrums when their demands are not immediately met. A first name reducing to 1, 3, 4, or 8 is best avoided as these will increase their demanding ways.

Ones Born in April (fourth month)

In addition to the 1, the number 4 is another vibration from the physical plane. Consequently, all the practical, pragmatic, and physical attributes of the 1 vibration will be considerably strengthened. Qualities of determination, perseverance, loyalty, vital energy, strength of purpose, obstinacy, and possessiveness are intensified. The 1 and 4 forces interact harmoniously. The personality should not experience conflicting elements. Parents can expect a good deal of stubbornness, but this is not necessarily a negative quality; it could have many positive applications in their teenage years and adulthood. With the capacity to give a firm and emphatic "No", they will stand on their own feet early in life. They cannot be influenced adversely by others. It will be most unlikely they would ever be bullied in school, but they may bully others.

Being almost entirely physically oriented, emotional expression will be at a minimum. They will express love and loyalty in deeds rather than sweet words and much body contact. A name with an emotional number 2, 5, or 9 will be best, while 1, 4, or 8 should be avoided. Consult the chapter on the fourth birth day for a better understanding of One personalities born in the fourth month.

Ones Born in May (fifth month)

A One personality will be enriched by a considerable variety of talents and personality traits introduced by the 5 vibration, which is a multi-faceted force. The ability to express emotion will be a special contribution. The controlling nature of the 1 vibration will also be enhanced and its adventuresome and pioneering qualities expanded. In short, the merger of 1 and 5 forces creates a totally resourceful personality. Restlessness will always be a problem with these children. They may not be too amenable to routine, punctuality, rules and regulations, and discipline. Freedom to do their own thing is most important. In general, they are quite able to look after themselves. They are physically courageous with a tendency to indulge in risky physical activities. Expect occasional injuries. Details shown in the chapter on the fifth birth day provide a good insight into this personality. Although the 5 vibration in the birth month is in a secondary position, its attributes are such that they take rank with those of the 1 vibration of the birth day. The combination of the 1 and 5 provide an adequate balance within the personality. It would be best to avoid a first name reducing to 1, 4, 5, or 8 as this would increase the individual's controlling tendencies.

Ones Born in June (sixth month)

Family and community orientation of the 6 vibration mitigates the individualistic and self-centered attributes of the 1 vibration in this birth day and birth month combination. Family pride and the protective and possessive nature of the 1 will readily accept family responsibility which is the chief attribute of the 6. Sociability and hospitality will also be expanded. These children will spend more time at home or in the company of family members than those Ones born in the first, third, or fifth months. Do not be surprised if they take an interest in cooking and other household duties. Their general habits will be orderly and methodical. Domestic disorder will harm a child's growth and wellbeing. Mental powers govern their thoughts and actions. Impulse will be exceptional. They can be quite argumentative as they will accept very little that is not factual or realistic. Although they possess a great capacity for love, they will hold displays of sentiment in check.

Many of these children can be quite unflappable toward events taking place around them. The chapter on the sixth birth day provides much more detail of the 6 aspect of this personality. However, bear in mind that 6 attributes are secondary features and some may be subdued by the power of the primary 1. By and large, however, both vibrations can interact in ways that create a strong positive personality. Disobedience and fits of temper will not arise if they are approached with reason and patience. As an outlet for emotional expression is lacking, a first name that reduces to 2, 5, or 9 will be helpful for rounding off the integral personality structure.

Ones Born in July (seventh month)

The vibration of the seventh month introduces a set of opposite traits which may confuse the fundamental personality formed by the 1 vibration. It is a strange combination of physical and spiritual elements. Compatibility with the 1 aspect will be found in practical and pragmatic aspects of life. But contrary features are introduced by the 7's spiritual side which contains non-competitive and non-acquisitive qualities. The chapter on the seventh

Birth day shows that many such features of the 7 are different from those of the 1. However, despite some degree of uncertainty and confusion, these differences should not diminish the strength of the integral personality. These children will begin life with a strong positive mindset. They can be quiet and contemplative, showing a preference for their own company from time to time. Their sociability at all times cannot be taken for granted. They set their own conditions for interacting with people. They are loving and loyal children but will rarely show emotional demonstration. A first name with the numbers 2, 5, or 9 may provide a controlled release of emotion at proper times. They are happiest in natural surroundings. At an early age, they may not be conscious of a desire to look into the spiritual aspects of life but this will be displayed unconsciously in their love of nature in all its various forms. They may not be too talkative or communicative, but whenever they choose to speak out, whatever they say is thoughtful and purposeful. People pay attention to them.

Ones Born in August (eighth month)

The chapter on the eighth birth day reveals many similarities between the 1 and 8 vibrations. They merge effortlessly in this birth day and birth month to create a strong, positive, and controlling personality. An irresistible urge to take charge of people and circumstances will be their most prominent characteristic. This will be observed in children at a very early age. They may not be easy to teach and discipline. They learn more through observation and experience than by direct instruction. As natural leaders and organizers they succeed in anything they undertake, but will not necessarily always gain popularity. High ambition overrides any desire to compromise or please. These traits will be observed in their junior years when they participate in sport and invariably acquire leadership roles in school or college. They play to win as losing does not enter their mindset. They are extroverted and exceptionally active children who need to engage in many outdoor activities. It will not be easy to hold on to them with domestic interests or household hobbies. They will not be bullied or enticed into any activity contrary to their desires and beliefs. A first name reducing to 2, 3, 6, 7, or 9 will help them expand from a one-pointed desire for physical activity and their controlling nature, into community-conscious, artistic, and intellectual domains.
