Someone recently told us that she thinks she has the worst
luck of anyone. She said she thinks she has been offered a
"dark mysterious life," and asked if there is any way to
change it. We relayed the following information to her.

It's time to disregard the idea that you have bad luck aspects
in your charts. Good psychics, astrologers, and numerologists
wouldn't tell you something like that because there's no such
thing.

By saying "the worst luck," maybe you mean that you think
you have challenging love or money karma, for instance. Is
there a way to erase difficult karma? No, but you can make
your life better by dealing with your karma from a higher
perspective.

What is "luck," really? Some say it's successfully capitalizing
on opportunities, some say it involves totally random gifts
from above, and some even suggest it's because God likes or
dislikes some people more than others.

The notion of luck implies chance but expert predictive
numerologists and astrologers will tell you that no
circumstance in anyone's life is completely random. It's
not easy sometimes to identify the root cause of certain
happenings, but there's a growing segment of the population
that understands that what goes around comes around (karma).
In other words, for every action (includes thought and intent)
there is an equal and opposite action. Does this mean that
energy carries over from previous lifetimes and that every
action eventually catches up to you? Yes.

Without realizing that we all move through our own unique
cycles of time (symbolized by the aspects in numerology and
astrology charts), it may appear as if we are sometimes lucky
and sometimes unlucky, and these episodes often seem unrelated
to other circumstances.

However, if you look at someone's charts when they did very
well financially, for example, they will have "lucky" patterns/
considerations constituting the framework of that period. If you
look at the same person's charts when their spouse filed for
divorce, they lost their job, and became ill; they have what could
be considered "unlucky" patterns/considerations during that period.

There are certain numbers that are more commonly associated
with rewarding experiences; some of these numbers are listed
below. Also, each person resonates better with some numbers
more than others due to the uniqueness of their charts.

The root numbers 3 and 5 are often associated with good
fortune. People who take the right action at the right time
under the 3 and, or 5 timing to capitalize on this fruitful
energy most often experience success, if the natal
configurations support it.

The number 7 also has a good reputation connected to
prosperity and luck, but only when those linked to it are
truly on the right path in life. 7 has a way of "taking people
down" (happens often) if there are parts of their lives that
go against what they must do here on earth.

13 is "all or nothing," and can spell huge success, but it's
too often connected to ruin.

Note: great accuracy with numerology and astrology results
from examining all parts of the charts and discerning life
events and character symbolized through patterns, instead
of using only one or two, or a handful of calculations.

Dramatic shifts from "bad luck" to "good luck" or "good
luck" to "bad luck" are some of the circumstances more
obviously seen in the charts. For example, a subject was
under several long and medium-term time cycles of 4, 1, and
7. During this period, she consistently did what she had to
do to get where she wanted to be in her career and with her
financial status. Then she transited from most of the 4,
1, and 7 to several 5 and 9 time cycles. Her sudden success
from all the effort (in this life and past ones) was almost
too much to handle. However, since she was aware of the coming
changes, she happily worked them to her advantage and was
able to deal with the craziness of sudden big success.

What you believe about your life, of course, also holds great
importance. Thinking you are a lucky or unlucky person can
turn into a self-fulfilling prophecy. Begin to think of yourself
as "lucky" or fortunate, and repeat a mantra whenever you think
of it, such as "I'm so grateful that I'm so lucky!" or "Luck
follows me everywhere I go!" and see what happens.
