When a partner dies we never believe we will be able to live again. I know I thought that way. But time and our approach and most importantly the positive influences in our lives proves otherwise for most of us. Yesterday was one of those major turning point for me. What strikes me is the influence of the number 6 and the impact that is having on my life.
Anniversaries, following the death of a loved one are never easy. Yesterday, being my birthday was the first anniversary day of the 6th year.
I’ve never been that into celebrating events, but Richard was. He always made a big deal out of my birthday. The last five years I’ve dreaded my birthday and usually spent the day by myself having a good old sob. Or putting on a brave face until I could escape back to the sanctuary of home and then feeling utterly miserable.
But yesterday, being the 6th without him, was completely the opposite. I had a great day with not one hint of sadness. Just brilliant company, fabulous food and wine, and lots of laughs. Not one tear was shed, and I just thought that Richard would have loved the day.
So, where does 6 come into it? Well, it’s the 6th birthday without him. April 17: I’m moving into my number 6 house. April is the 4th month; add 4,1,7 = 12 div by 2 = 6.
The number 6 is the most harmonious and caring number. It projects the attributes of charm (I might have to work on this one 😊), amity, love, care, compassion, friendship, insight, health, beauty. It is the only number that has more positive qualities and less negative qualities when compared to any other number.
A house number 6 promotes the artistic expression of the dweller. It’s the perfect home for people who love cooking (I’ve just got back into that) painting, writing and music (my passions). Dwellers also like symmetry and refinement.
I have a good life and I’m very grateful for what I have. However, since Richard died, there’s always that black cloud hanging above. On anniversary days that’s when it’s the blackest. After yesterday I feel that cloud is not so black, and it’s moved higher up and that is such a great feeling.
I can’t wait to see how the rest of year six turns out and I just know it’s going to be fabulous.
