Incompatible Name Number Benefits

There are potential benefits of having incompatible numerology numbers in a name.

A common belief is that compatible numbers are always good and that incompatible numbers are always bad. But the belief isn't necessarily correct.

Benefits of compatible name numbers include less likelihood of internal conflict. Drawbacks include a narrower range of experience.

Benefits of incompatible name numbers include a wider range of personal insight gained from experiencing existence with incompatibilities.

(Compatible name numbers, because of less likelihood of conflict, would provide a narrower range of experience.)

Compatible numbers tend to support each other and incompatible numbers tend to challenge each other. Challenges and their resolution is where much personal insight can come from.

Incompatible numbers can provide a depth of self-understanding that fully compatible name numbers are unable to do.

Here is a list of the three core name numbers in a personal numerology chart.

• The destiny number represents the person, as the person is and is destined to become more of. It is calculated with all the letters of the birth name.

• The personality number represents how the person presents themself to others. It is calculated with the consonants of the birth name.

• The heart's desire number represents something deeply yearned for but unlikely to be accomplished in full, and is accompanied with the inner resources to follow the yearning. It is calculated with the vowels of the birth name.

The numbers at the three core numerology chart name positions are either a 1-digit number or a master number (11, 22, or 33).

Understanding the focus of those three name positions will help to appreciate how the vibrations represented by certain numbers affect the other positions.

Let's talk about the effects each of the three positions has on the others, with a focus on the effects when the numbers are incompatible with each other. (A compatibility table can be found at Compatibility of Number Energy.)

An example incompatible numbers effect will be provided for each. (For other numbers, see the links at About Numerology Number Meanings to help determine what their effects might be.)

Destiny/Personalty Effects

Let's assume a destiny number 3 and a personality number 4. The energies represented by the two numbers, 3 and 4, are incompatible.

The person is or is destined to become an expressive, creative individual who inspires others to accomplish their dreams.

On the other hand, the person presents themself as a dependable hard worker who does things according to established procedures.

For someone who wants to be wildly creative, yet to be both highly productive and confine their creations to things that are practical, the incompatibility of the numbers 3 and 4 are beneficial. The combination is an energy focused on producing creative and practical things.

Destiny/Heart's Desire Effects

Let's assume a destiny number 1 and a heart's desire number 2. The energies represented by the two numbers, 1 and 2, are incompatible.

The person is or is destined to become a self-determined, self-sufficient, independent individual who does things for their own reasons.

The heart's desire is to work with others, to have fulfilling relationships, to accomplish things together.

For someone who wants to decide for themselves what their goals are and how best to accomplish them, and to be self-sufficient, yet always to consider the benefits of working with others and to be open to rewarding relationships, the incompatibility of the numbers 1 and 2 can be a huge benefit. They create an energy of an individual doing what they determine is best, yet always considering how they can work with others to accomplish them.

Personalty/Heart's Desire Effects

Let's assume a personality number 5 and a heart's desire number 6. The energies represented by 5 and 6 are incompatible.

The person presents themselves as someone who is interested in everything, willing to consider trying anything new.

The heart's desire is to have a joyful home and family secure in their life and beliefs.

The incompatibility of 5 and 6 can be beneficial for someone who's personality requires meeting many people, travel, and varying experience, yet have it moderated by a desire to maintain a harmonious home for their family. The combination is an energy of following whim tethered to responsibility.

Incompatibile Numbers

Most names have some dissonance among the three core name numbers. Real benefits can come from it.

Just because certain numbers are incompatible doesn't mean the combination is bad. The pulling in different directions can affect the energies of both for a most suitable compromise.
