Status, Balance

Social Ethics, Justice, Reputation. Status/Commitments. Publicity/Privacy.

Six means Status and Balance. This is a very crafty Number. You have to learn about social price for all your actions and achievements. The higher is your social Status, the more you have to watch yourself because of the risk of being blamed for your decisions. Any Status means Commitment; any Publicity pinches your Privacy. Your desire to please some people might clash with the needs of others. The Sum of your choices is your Reputation.

God's Blessing

Universal Ethics. Arch of Karma. Price for Luck, Gifts, Realized Wishes. Personal Vocation.

Seven seems to be a "Lucky" or even "Magic" Number for many. "Do you believe in Magic?" This makes sense even if you do not.

You may discover that being 'God Almighty' brings you nothing except for the sense of sadness and loss. Be careful: you enter the world of Cosmic Balance. In other words, welcome to Heaven, the Home of Karma! Inner Honesty may be rewarded with bright talents and personal vocation on the level of Number Seven.
