Numerology

The number 6

care · home · responsibility

On a Luna Post postcard, this number reads as care, home, and responsibility.

What it means

Six is the number of looking after things: people, homes, animals, standards. It's warm and dutiful and has strong opinions about how things ought to be, which makes it both the most generous number and the one most likely to interfere.

As your Life Path

A Life Path 6 usually ends up holding everyone together, and usually forgets to ask who is holding them. The lesson is that care given without any limit stops being care and becomes something else.

When it's your month

A month for the people and the place. Domestic repairs, family conversations, and the meal you keep meaning to cook for somebody all go better in this cycle.

Where it goes wrong

Martyrdom, or help that arrives as control. If your care has started keeping score, it has turned into something else.

The question to sit with

Who are you carrying, and who is carrying you?

Numerology is a prompt rather than a measurement, and the useful part is what the question makes you look at. We make that case at more length in not a prediction, a mirror, and how the number sits alongside your star sign and Chinese zodiac is in your star sign, your Chinese zodiac, and your Life Path number.

Where this number came from

If 6 turned up on your postcard, it was worked out from your birthday: either your Life Path, which stays with you, or your Personal Month, which changes. Either way, the reflection on the back was written from it.
