Calendar Day Number
Calendar Date
May 08
It's the 8th of the month. A week has passed since the 1st, with all the ideas and motivation that it had to offer. What have you done since then? 8 takes the energy of the 1st and propels it forward. There's drive and purpose when 8 is involved. It's down to earth and practical-unlike yesterday's remote and abstract ideas. 8 wants to see the bigger picture, and get a solid plan under it to achieve the goals that were so important on the 1st.
8 doesn't suffer fools lightly and tends to get a bit pompous in the way that it carries itself. It brings infinite potential, as reflected in its lemniscape form, but it also has the potential to lose its cool. 8 isn't particularly tactful, and its energy needs to be handled carefully in order to be truly productive. Take the positive qualities that it has to offer, and then blend them with your Personal Cycle number to get the best out of what the day has to bring.
Global Day Number
The energy of Global Day number 2 is very harmonious and gentle, but don't let that fool you. This is not a day for weakness, it's not a time for backing down. 2 isn't as outspoken or pushy as the other numbers, but it still has strength and integrity. The stability of 2 lies in its compassion and harmony, and the way that it can smooth over troubled situations where there is discord or confrontation. This energy is diplomatic, and that takes great substance indeed.
You'll be more drawn to areas that are tasteful and indulgent today, and there's nothing wrong with that as long as you've got the financial resources to afford them. If you're at all creative, you'll see ways of bringing harmony and balance into your self-expression. It's a good day for delving into your inner psyche, and learning more about yourself and what you want from life, particularly when it comes to letting go of things that are standing in the way of your peace of mind. To get the most out of what 2 has to offer, apply it's qualities to your Personal Cycle, because your own numerology is always going to be more influential than the Global Day number or that of the calendar date.
