In earlier
numerology texts and teachings the numbers 11, 22, and sometimes 33 were called
master numbers. They seemed to suggest an added potential and power beyond the
single digit numbers and other double digits. This work includes the entire
range of double digit master numbers 11 to 99. These numbers represent steps of
initiation along the path of planetary and systemic evolution. Nine is the
number of perfection or completion and ten is the number of evolution.
Evolution on this planet is represented by ten journeys through the ten spheres
of the tree of life (see the cosmology chapters for the tree of life
metaphor).
Ten multiplied times ten (10) is one hundred (100)
which is the evolutionary number opening the door to the next level of our
journey in consciousness.
The master
numbers represent initiatory steps along the way for the aspirant desiring
transformation. There are schools of metaphysical thought that teach of
ascended masters who sometimes do incarnate upon the planet. There are some
numerologists who teach that someone with a master number in the name is an
ascended master. It is possible that an incarnated ascended master could have a
master number in the name. However, the appearance of a master number in
a persons chart does not usually indicate the person is such. They
indicate the opportunity to master a particular moment or talent during this
lifetime.
In most
cases, however, the presence of master numbers can suggest an older soul coming
into this lifetime to make an important contribution for mankind in a field of
a spiritual, scientific, medical, religious, educational, governmental, or
technological nature.
Often
master numbers indicate an older soul trained in the ancient esoteric schools
many lifetimes previous who now returns to manifest or teach particular higher
level methods of healing, psychic development, or invention. The presence of
master numbers may indicate a dynamic soul who is incarnating this time from
another planet or system to fulfill some specific destiny or mission. Many old,
important, and masterful souls have names and birth dates with no master
numbers, so we must be careful to keep this whole matter in perspective.
My studies
have brought me to the tentative conclusion that no matter where the master
number may appear, the higher vibration does not fully unfold until the soul
has awakened and the individual takes conscious steps to advance them. In some
instances certain gifts manifest through grace. In fact, the individual
possessing the gift may not have initiated conscious discipline and study of
spiritual law in this lifetime.
Those who
have master numbers appearing in their name or birth date generally are endowed
with special tendencies toward leadership and inspiration that set them apart
from mass consciousness. Because the numbers are of intensified vibration and
potency, those who possess them have a heightened obligation in life, such as
greater requirements of self-discipline and purification of consciousness.
