Personal Road Map Course, "Getting to Know Thyself, Better" (Lesson 1: Finding your purpose through an exploration of Numerology)

I LOVE this picture of the full moon behind the clouds...

*​Guys, I'm making these PDFs (and the course, too) as I go along... so feedback would be great and SUPER APPRECIATED. Let me know if there are some things I could do to make these worksheets work better as we progress. Also, if someone can PLEASE tell me how the hell do I change the footer color to match the Header Color in Microsoft Word, I'd appreciate that?! I don't even know how I changed the header color to begin with, to even start there! Thank you in advance!

AND one more thing...
If you've already done this kind of stuff, like get your Numerology or Astrology Report, then, this course might not be for you. I mean, I'd like to think that once we get to the shadow work portion, I might offer something you'll find a bit helpful... but, for now the best I can hope for is that if you already have the basic info, maybe this course will still help you to pull it all together and make sense of all of it?
​Fingers crossed, right? Whoo... I just got chills. I might be taking on something kinda big, guys? 
​Nervous & Excited!!

Okay, so I did some brainstorming (actually, I've done A LOT of brainstorming), and I'm really just kinda flying by the seat of my pants as inspiration compells me. I'm spiritually moved/inspired to do this course, but I HAVE NOT plotted it out, like... at all.

Where by, in contrast, my stories/books that I'm writing/have written, I have ALWAYS plotted EVERYTHING out. I KNOW EXACTLY where the stories are going, what each chapter is supposed to cover, etc. ... All I have to do is just the detailed part and physically write the actual stories, not just the extremely shortened version, like I already have. That of course is a major W.I.P. but I digress...

However, this course, is on the complete flip side, I'm absolutely pantsing it. So... let's just see where we get to as we go along, shall we? I'll be here the whole way, so don't be scared. I've done all of this, myself, just not in a structured and guided format, and it IS frightening when you start to get clarity into WHO YOU ARE, but it's also (more importantly) extremely LIBERATING. 

via GIPHY

So, I'm "designing" this course as a step by step, guided Self-help course, and my intention is to post something helpful, lesson-wise, at least once a week. Sometimes, I might add more. I'm going with what I feel I'm being guided to teach and share, as we go along. This is different from what I've normally done, because it's not coming from me, exactly... I feel like I'm just a conduit of the information right now, and SOMEONE out there, needs this. Please do feel free to share this series with anyone you think might need some light into their lives, shone. 

As the title of this post suggests, we will be starting to cover what we can learn from Numerology. Again, as I've mentioned before, I am NOT a Numerologist. I do NOT have a background in Numerology. I am just good at doing research and so I'm sharing that information with you. I will NOT rewrite what many of the great masters have already done a phenomenal job of doing. Instead, I will provide you with the resources so you too, can find your own path. I'll include links to dozens of websites, books, blogs, etc. (all unaffiliated links, btw) within these lessons, and by using the PDFs I design, you'll have a workbook of sorts to use along your journey as you gather all of the information you'll need.

Okay, so... whether you believe in the powers of numbers or not, this post is unconcerned with that. And really, I'm unconcerned with that. Why? Well, it's not that I don't care, it's instead because I'd really rather just give you the information you need to set out on your path, instead of arguing the validity of the value of Numbers. I'd rather you go into this with an open mind, gather and review the information gleaned, and THEN decide if you find some truth in what is presented to you.

We all wish we'd been born with a manual to our lives, a handbook of sorts; to find our direction in life.

​Well, we were. All of us; you, me, your parents, your grandparents, as well as any future descendants that might be in our familial lines, a hundred years from now.

We can find this information through methods that have been in use for years, decades, centuries, even... And today, using these methods, you are going to start to gather that info, with my help.

Alrighty then... Let's jump right in!

Numerology.

​Quick sum up of what Numerology is- Each number has a special quality, and each letter of the alphabet is assigned a corresponding numerical value. The date you were born, in addition to the numerical value of your ACTUAL FULL Birth Name, given at birth, has everything you need to start to understand your destiny.

**For this course, we will be using Standard English Format. However, not counting the Alphabetic Chart I included with the PDFs, you can still use these worksheets to gather your meanings, if you speak English and can find a Numerical Conversion chart for your Birth Name, in your prefered language.

There are many that believe that YOU before you were born into this actual lifetime, decided what path you'd follow. Many see this Lifetime as a school of sorts, and we basically signed ourselves up for an extended college education. Still, others believe that God, or the Gods, or Fate, determined who You would become. Regardless of WHO decided what path you will take, the results of these prophetic numbers, to me, and millions of others out there, are undeniable.

**I'll go into more detail about those different schools of thought later on in a separate post, but for now, I'm just really excited to help you get started!

Here is your First PDF for this course. It's 5 pages including a cover sheet. Go ahead and print it out, look it over, and then come back here.
​I'll wait.

You can also just fill in the blanks on the computer, I think? I dunno...  (**Update: No, apparently you can't fill in the blanks on the computer) I'm working with a different version of Adobe, and I don't like it.
​It's missing a buttload of features... Kinda like my phone when they did the new update about a month ago...

Okay, so, the first page (Page 2, technically) has a few charts and spaces to write your Full Name, given at birth- write that down on the MIDDLE LINE of the space provided. Below that, you have "Place of Birth", fill in the City, State, & Country of where you were born. (This will be necessary for when we get to the Astrology lessons, but since this will be Page One of the whole course, I figured let's just put this all in one place)

In the next column, you have a line to write your Date of Birth. Write that information in this format: 

January 1, 2011 would be written as : 1-1-2011

Below that, you have Time of Birth.  Write in your birth time in Military/24-hr Format. Example: 6:22pm would be 18:22. 

**If you DO KNOW the actual time, that's GREAT, it is usually listed on the birth certificates, if you don't, then when we get to the Astrology Lessons, your Astrology Report will not be as ACCURATE as we'd like, but that's OKAY. But, for this Numerology section however, this info is not necessary. Again, I just wanted to put it all up front & ready.

The rest of Page 2 has a few charts with corresponding Numerical Values for the Letters of your Name, & the Day, Year, and Month of your birth. Ignore these for now.

The next three pages (pgs. 3 - 5) are for your first & arguably the MOST IMPORTANT NUMBER in your Numerology Report, your Life Path Number. You can follow the instructions on page 3 and calculate your LPN, yourself, or, you can go to numerologist.com and enter in the same basic info into their guided video reading.

**Now, I WILL say that I LOVE the fact that numerologist.com provides (FOR FREE) your first 3 important Reading Numbers; your  Life Path Number, your Expression Number/Destiny Number, and your Soul Urge/Heart's Desire Number (those next two we will cover in the next lessons). You do at some point in the "presentation" have to volunteer your email address, at which point you'll receive emails every few days, encouraging you to "find out more" and purchase your extended report. Maybe for some of you that'll be worth it and their site will resonate with you and we will part ways, now. Maybe not.

Either way, I'm still going to send you toNumerologist.com, to start gathering that info we've been talking about. And btw, NONE of these links within this course, to any of these websites, are affiliate links, nor am I getting paid or asked to send you there.
So, if you click this link, here
You'll be taken directly to the Numerologist.com website, to the page where you'll start out by entering in your first name and your birthdate.
Then, their program will "calculate" your Life Path Number for you, and explain what a Life Path Number means, and finally, what YOUR OWN LPN, means. It's a short video with words on the screen and you can pause it. Which is GREAT, because Page 3 of this lesson is for you to write down WHAT the "experts" say your LPN means.

After you go through the short video and have taken notes, I want you to get a second opinion.
So, DO NOT GO ON TO THE NEXT PART of the Video, "Expression/Destiny Number"
I mean, you totally can, but I haven't provided you with PDFs for those next sections, and you can totally go back to the site/video and get that info later.

via GIPHY

So for your "second opinion" (Page 4 of your PDF), I want you to go to WorldNumerology.com 
The link takes you directly to the page that lists the meanings behind each individual Life Path Number.
Find your LPN, click on it, and read it/take notes on Page 4 of your PDF.

**This particular site, worldnumerology.com, has a SUPER WEALTH of info. There is Literally SO MUCH to digest & learn from their site, and luckily, most of it is FREE. And I like FREE. Of course, there is additional info that you'd have to pay for, as usual; but they do also offer a FREE app to download that has all the free stuff available in it, calculators included, and you might find that THAT is where we part ways. In which case, I'm glad I could help and direct you to some new insight. Of course, you're still welcome here, because I do have more to show you, also for FREE. Plus, the app didn't work for me, I couldn't open it, which is when I was struck with the idea to do this course, indefinitely.

Okay, so there's also lots of additional goodies on their site that are tempting to click on, which you totally can... I'm not the boss of you... but, for now, I'd suggest just sticking to what's in front of you now.

So, the next page, Page 5, is where we are going to start learning about ourselves by digging into the meaning of our Numbers, in this case, our LPN. I've given you some questions on page 5 to think about and start answering/reflecting on, that will help you to uncover what your LPN means to YOU. If you find you need more space, just use the back of the page or an additional piece of paper.
​Hell, use as many as you need!

The final page, Page 6, has 2 columns for you to list  as you go along through your research, the different Light & Dark Qualities you apparently have, as well as a place to list signs of if you're living in or out of Alignment, and finally any challenges you might face and obstacles you'll have to overcome. Use this section as a bullet or numbered list, as needed, that you can refer back to at a glance from time to time.

**And a quick side note: Numerologist.com DOES NOT do Master Numbers, at least not that I'm aware of, but Worldnumerology.com, does. That's a separate subject/side lesson, that we'll get to later... but if you're curious and need something to read and whet your whistle while you work on the rest of your assignment & wait for the next one... here's a link for that.

And that is going to wrap up Lesson 1!
Yay, you made it!
Next week, I'll guide you through your Expression/Destiny Number, so be sure to watch for that!
