THE CHALLENGES
THE OBSTACLES TO WHOLENESS
and THE ISSUES IN LIFE.
In a Numerology chart, the Challenges are the real issues of
life, the types of behavioral patterns and situations that might drive a
person into therapy. I attach a great deal of importance to the
Challenge numbers. The Challenges are derived from the Birth Path
components, and these aspects represent the only time in Numerology
where subtraction is the mathematical process used.The Challenges represent major stumbling blocks on the road of life that is the Birth Path. There are three minor, or SubChallenges, and one major or Lifetime Challenge. The major Challenge is a life lesson that remains until it is learned. The subchallenges cover specific periods of time during the course of your life.
If they are learned, they clear themselves and you continue in life unencumbered by them. If they are not handled and cleared, they will remain in your life, adding to the other challenges that come about, and the individual must deal with multiple issues in his or her life. Additionally, at all times the characteristics of the various Challenges will be a part of the person’s existence adding the dynamics of the particular aspects to their life, thus affording the opportunity to work through and overcome/become the Challenge(s) at any given time. Anytime a number appears more than once in the Challenges, it amplifies itself and shows itself to be the one major issue which will prevent you from obtaining all your goals and all you desire in life. Everyone has a Challenge to meet in life. Some have two, three, or four Challenges, but one fact remains...they must be identified, met, and overcome if you are to gain the successes in life that you desire.
Challenges number from 0 - 8 and gain intensity and drama incrementally, as the number increases. The most common challenges are 1, 2, and 3. When one encounters the 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 Challenges the issues become more likely to create greater difficulty in the individual's life and it is important that they are addressed and cleared from the life.
This is an important piece of information for any individual to gain from a Numerology reading. It can help explain and identify the root cause for events in your life and better prepare you to understand, accept, and overcome and then become them. Challenges may show up as personal feelings or bad habits, or they may be antagonistic behavior patterns that manifest as a lack of friends or associates, and in many cases, the challenges may manifest as “untrained behaviors” which have little or no use. The Challenges will also represent situations and conditions that exist in the family and interpersonal environment.
The Challenges can be compared to a “weak link in a chain” in that one weak link affects the strength of the entire chain and a Challenge, once it is discovered, worked with, and strengthened can provide an impetus for constructive expression and success in the external affairs, as well as an improved internal situation with the “traumas” of life. If the Challenges are not dealt with they can sabotage one's life and subsequent successes. They represent underlying weaknesses that with proper execution, when reversed can become strengths and assets in one's life.
The important thing to remember is that the Challenges occurs below the Life Path, thus they affect the things of the material and threedimensional plane. The lesson of the challenge is this: RECOGNIZE IT…OVERCOME IT...and then, BECOME WHAT IT REPRESENTS. At that time it becomes an ASSET FOR FINANCIAL AND EMOTIONAL SUCCESS. Challenges unmet present the dynamic that creates the “I can’t believe this is happening to me, again” scenario. These are internal issues which will manifest in the everyday life of the individual. What needs to be done is for the person to look inward at their fears and feelings and gain understanding of what is represented by the Challenges. If you are courageous enough to look at your life, then you must be courageous enough to take FULL responsibility for it.
The solution in the realm of the Challenges is this:
- 1. DIG and UNCOVER. DISCOVER. OVERCOME. BECOME IT!!
- 2. ACCEPT IT.
- 3. WORK WITH IT.
- 4. BRING IT INTO HARMONY WITH YOUR TALENTS and HANDLE IT.
- 5. YOUR ULTIMATE ANSWER TO HANDLING YOUR CHALLENGE(S) IS THE NUMBER OF THE DAY OF YOUR BIRTH.

HOW TO CALCULATE YOUR CHALLENGES
In determining the Challenges, subtraction is the mathematical process involved. To calculate the Challenges you first subtract the number of the month of the birth from the number of the day of the birth. This provides you the first Sub-Challenge. The second Sub-Challenge is obtained by subtracting the day of the birth from the year of the birth. The third Sub-Challenge is obtained by subtracting the number of the first Sub-Challenge from the number of the second Sub-Challenge. The fourth and final Challenge, or the Lifetime Challenge, is obtained by subtracting the month of the birth from the year of the birth. You must first reduce the birth date to three single digit numbers and proceed from that point. This is one of the only times in Numerology where you will reduce a Master Number to a single digit.EXAMPLE: 12/4/1961
- 1st Challenge: Subtract 4 - 3 = 1 (the month from the day)
- 2nd Challenge: Subtract 8 – 4 = 4 (the day from the year)
- 3rd Challenge: Subtract 4 – 1 = 3 (the 1st Challenge from the 2nd Challenge)
- Lifetime Challenge: Subtract 8 – 3 = 5 (the month from the year)
The time frame covering the challenges is figured by subtracting the number of the Birth Path from the number 36. This calculation provides the number of years that the first challenge will be in effect. To determine the second challenge, add the number 9 to the ending year of the first challenge. The third challenge is determined by adding the number 9 to the ending year of the second challenge. The Lifetime Challenge is in effect for the entire life.
