Energy of the Number 1

Updated: Feb 12, 2019


All numbers produce a predictable outcome- that's the beauty of mathematics and of numerology! When we can understand the numbers that underlie our individual birth codes (made up of our birthdays and full birth names, or natal numbers), a whole new dimension of understanding and consciousness about our lives- who we are,what gives us fulfillment, our challenges, our strengths, why we are here-- unfurls before us.

"Numbers rule the universe; everything is arranged according to number and mathematical shape." -Pythagoras

So let's get into the number 1!


The 1 energy is the Initiator, the Independent, the Innovator! It loves to be first, to be number one, in the lead and showing the way. Represented by fire, this energy is very yang, or masculine (but, by no means is an energy only given to men). Action, assertiveness, dominance, decisiveness, and self-reliance all stem from here. 1's tend to be very good athletes.


The 1 is also about what's new: beginnings, cycles, ideas, and originality. Once flashes of insight come knocking, 1's waste no time putting everything in motion to manifest whatever these ideas are into reality. There is a great deal of courage, boldness, will, and self-ambition here.


Duality exists in all things, and numbers are no exception. The "dark side" of the number 1, or what can be experienced when someone with 1 energy is out of alignment with it, includes being either overly independent (pushing others away) or being co-dependent (clinging to others). The self-ambition can also flow inwards, morphing into self-centeredness with all the machismo, pride, and vanity that entails. Viewing the world through this dark-sided lens can cultivate cynicism, sensitivity to criticism, aggression, isolation, blocked creativity, judgement, addiction, and a severe lack of self-confidence.


Keywords: Independent, Bold, Clever, Original, Determined, Self-Sufficient, Creative, Leadership, Ambitious, Assertive, Masculine, Yang, Ego, Technology, Design, Law, Management, Entrepreneur, Marketing, HR, Inventor, Explorer, Pioneer


Remember, our birth codes are made up of many numbers! Where and how many times any single number shows up in your chart can affect its exact manifestation, along with which other numbers are present. It's like a symphony-- the order of the notes, played by which instruments, can create a nearly infinite number of songs!
