Your Arrows Of Destiny

Everyone knows the basics about Numerology, which is to take your Date of Birth, and break it down into a single digit.

IE: 1st July 1961 = 1 + 7 (July) + 1 + 9 + 6 + 1 = 25  which is then broken down as 2 + 5 = 7

Breaking down the Date of Birth to one single digit (or in some cases one of the master numbers such as 11, 22 or 33) reveals the Life Path Number.

In this case, using the Date of Birth of the late Princess Diana of Wales, we see she had a Life Path Number of 7.

This means that, as a 7, she gained maximum experience through life’s lesson books, both through the personal sacrifice of learning and through teaching or sharing. Her Life’s Purpose was about the need to take a massive step forward. The 7 also gave her a limitless capacity for learning through personal involvement and sharing with others.

We saw the positive sides of this through Diana’s compassion to others in what she wanted to be: - A Queen of Hearts.

That is the sort of thing most pick up from reading magazines such as Womans Day or New Idea.

There is more to the Ruling Number of 7 which can be covered at another time.

I mentioned earlier that is the BASIC function that most people know.

Many don’t know that besides breaking down Dates of Birth (and even names) into their basic numbers, we can tell even more about someone through its individual components.

For example, consider if someone with the date of birth 10th May 1971 were placed on a “tic tac toe” board where each square were represented by numbers as below:-

The numbers that represent each space on a Birth Chart

The top row signifies the Mind Plane and is related to our mental capacities, how we use them and how we think.

The middle row signifies the Soul Plane. That is it relates to our spiritual well-being as well as how we feel things such as emotions.

The bottom row is related to the Physical Plane, illustrating our practical aspects and our actions of doing things.

For example, the more numbers one has filling their Soul Plane then the more emotionally balanced they are and able to deal with issues and people around them. If there is a lack of numbers on this level then the person is likely to be easily agitated, hypersensitive, someone who can lash out at others as they feel easily hurt by others. This is something that is usually grown out of or adapted fortunately.

A lack of numbers is not a bad thing or a detriment. It is one of the pointers to show where that particular person has lessons to learn in their life. The point of life is to develop oneself, to be the best we can be, and be happy. Knowing the life areas to be worked upon allows us to plan for happiness.

For the 10th May 1971, the birth chart would look like this after putting each digit from the date of birth into its corresponding square.

Birth Chart for subject born on 10th May 1971

You will notice that there are three 1’s in the bottom left quadrant.

That is something else that I look at as every single digit has its own meaning. A grouping of digits holds a greater importance.

In this case the three 1’s indicate a person who is a real chatterbox. It can be hard to shut them up sometimes because they are usually very bright and interesting. They usually find life to be very interesting and love to share their findings with others. If the middle row were completely devoid of digits in this chart, they would be mostly shy but very willing to speak once they felt they were in safe company. However, in this case, the 5 offers some protection to that sensitivity so the person does not feel so reserved in other’s company.

The interesting part is the complete line, also known as an arrow, in the chart. The sections filled by the 1’s, 5’s and 9’s.

When there is such a complete arrow, similar to a winning line in tic-tac-toe, this is usually indicated as a strength.

This particular arrow (1, 5, 9) is known as the Arrow of Determination and is one of the most prolific arrows to be present for those born in the 20th century. For those born in this century, or any other, it is usually those born on the 19th May or the 15th September who have this arrow. An example of one such high profile person with such an arrow is Clint Eastwood who has been an active person in a number of endeavours (born 31st May 1930).

For these people, determination rules everything they do which is often coupled with persistence… sometimes to the point of dogged stubbornness. Some will want to enact their plans with all haste while others will patiently wait it out for the opportunity before striking with precision. Usually the middle path, employing their intuition, compassion and wisdom will generally provide them with the most suitable action.

As you can see, having such an arrow is a powerful strength. One must still be careful with their strengths as if they are overused then they can become a detriment by, for example, hurting the wrong people and not being mindful of the consequences which can radiate out like shockwaves or even simply looking silly when they have taken actions stubbornly without considering all the necessary facts.

Ideally, the arrow of strength would have only one each of the 1, 5 and 9. When parts of the arrow are compounded, this can affect how well the Arrow of Determination flies as its balance is disrupted.

In this example, the subject is a chatterbox which is also implies they do not listen to others or show enough concern before making actions. Ideally, to balance things out, I would be suggest to this person they learn to develop the traits of an 8, a 2, or even better a 3 which will complete another of 3 possible arrows (Practicality, Spirituality or Activity).

The opposite of the Arrow of Determination is the Arrow of Procrastination. This happens when there is a ROW OF BLANKS (eg: no 1's, 5's or 9's). An Arrow is formed by either a complete row of numbers or a complete lack of numbers in a row.

You may laugh at this point when I tell you that NO ONE was born with this in the 1900’s. If you think that you know people who procrastinate, you have seen nothing yet until you have truly experienced children born from the early 2000's. The Arrow of Procrastination has never been seen since the 9th century (the 880’s). Anyone born in a year that has a 1, 5 or 9 is guaranteed to not have that Arrow appear.

It is only becoming more prevalent now since 2000. Parents of children who possess this arrow would be advised to teach their child patience in looking at problems and tasks, to learn discipline and focus.

By now, you are probably looking at your own birth chart right now and have noticed a few rows that are either filled nicely or not at all on the tic-tac-toe birth chart.

If you want to know more about those arrows (filled or not), please feel free to contact me and I will be glad to help.

Until next time,

I Dare You To Lay Your Hands On Me.... Go On, I Know You Want To.

Back in 1996, I made my debut on the internet. A veil of mystery loomed over "the net" back then as it was seen by many as a cesspool of porn, net sex, adultery, con artists and lonely people wanting to score with love or cheap thrills. For some, it probably hasn't changed much in the past 25 years.

I was the first Australian mentalist to have a web page, even pipping my New Zealand colleagues at the post.

When I first logged on, I remember checking and found that I was about the third mentalist in the world to have a site. Unfortunately there was no prize for that but I thought I'd mention it for you anyway.





The website was a simple little thing. Java was still a cup of coffee, shockwave was something that happened around the time of an earthquake and people were still coming to grips with Windows 95. Chatting was around though and that was usually through the „undernet“ with Internet Relay Chat (known as IRC).

My first friends online were some fellow entertainers including another mentalist, a couple of magicians and a cartoonist who drew caricatures at parties. Most of them were in Auckland, a mere throw of the boomerang across the Tasman Sea.

The cartoonist's wife was the biggest chatter and would regularly send me a message to say hello. Further she became a valued critic for any ideas I might bounce around.

Anyway, while talking to her one time, she interrupted me to say, "I've been getting migraines for the past few years but every time we chat, I lose them."

Anyone else saying that would have made me wonder if they were flirting with me but she was serious about the migraines. I'd never healed before and, to this day, still steer away from it.

Over the next couple of months,I had the same reports from other people. Of course, all the time this was happening, I kept note of every incident just in case.

Then came the strangest report.

Jeff, a single father, told me something that made me wonder even more. "I never told anyone this before, Chris, but you'll find this interesting. I used to get outbreaks of gout from a shellfish allergy I have. Since meeting you online and chatting with you, my gout's pain has decreased."

"That's great, Jeff," I told him, without thinking about it. "Maybe you're coming out of that stage."

However when I had time to think, I remembered other people saying the same too. I don't know what it is as I've never considered myself as a healer even though one clairvoyant who read me even told me I could.

So I started an experiment online with my website after a discussion with my girlfriend at the time. We scanned my hands and placed them on the website, explaining it as an experiment. The responses were slow at first but soon there were more and more that seemed to indicate there just may be something to my hands.

Would you like to try it out for yourself? The original scan of my palms is still on the website and just as powerful as before.

Visit www.thementalist.com.au and go to the Interactive Page, following the link to "Lay Your Hands On Me“.

Post your comments here straight after and then come back a few days to a week later to let us know of any changes.

The Devil Made Me Do It.... Really?

One of the biggest lies people can ever tell others (and themselves) when they do something wrong is that the Devil made you do it.

The truth of it is that the devil doesn't make you do anything at all. I mean, sure, he can suggest, nudge you and tempt you, but in the end you make the choice of whether to do right or wrong.

It's a sad fact in humanity, and it may be a growing trend although there may be evidence to the contrary, that people are learning more and more to fail to take responsibility for the actions they take. The blame is not always placed on the Devil as it can also be placed upon a boss, the children, the spouse or even the weather.

The Tarot's Devil card has often been misrepresented, especially in popular culture such as Hollywood movies, as being a card of evil. This is perpetuated further, and just as falsely, by others who "reason" that it proves a so-called Satanic connection of sorts.

Regardless of whether you believe the Devil to be an actual entity or not, it is generally accepted amongst most Tarot Consultants that the Devil card is mostly about ourselves and our choices than it is about some "demonic presence".

Many texts, old and new, state that the Devil card represents an enslavement, fear, and temptation. This is the same meaning that I believe it takes and the same message I give if it comes up during one of my Intuitive Consultations.

If you look closely at the picture of the card, you will see it shows two people, a man and a woman, chained to the Devil. The chains are around their neck and, if you look even closer, you will notice that those same chains are loose. Similar to the elephant I mentioned in another blog post, Ask Me About The Elephant, the chains are so loose that they can escape if they so choose!

The key word here is choice.

These chains in our lives can take many guises, whether it be a bad habit, alcohol and other addictions, self-defeating belief systems, toxic relationships and other types of behaviour. All of these things can be chains to hold us down. Just like any other problem in life, the first step to helping yourself to recovery is to acknowledge that you have the problem.

When you do acknowledge it, however, you do so as the first step towards recovery. NEVER use it as an excuse to hold you back like that chain (which is so big it would fall off you if you just shrugged a little more).

First comes taking responsibility for yourself. Then comes the treatment and help before freedom.

Taken in this context, the Devil Card is a very self-reflective card that allows us to look at our lives and to recognise the things holding us back so that we can deal with them better. The card itself is not a source of evil but the things it represents are self-destructive and detrimental to our physical, mental and spiritual health.

What chains are holding you down in life and how can you get rid of such negative things?

We bring these things on ourselves and the great part is that we don't have to fix it by ourselves. If the Tarot, as a self-improvement tool, teaches us anything it is that we can not make it through life's journey alone.

If you need help, acknowledge it and seek it. Then rid yourself of your slavery to your temptations and excuses.

If you have any questions, please feel free to let me know.

The Seeds Of Life And Death

A few years ago, one of my clients made a return visit. This time she had brought her youngest daughter along.


The 18 year-old girl was deathly thin with cheeks sunken and eyes so dull that she looked really sick. That wasn't what worried me so much. It was when her mother told me that just 2 weeks earlier, she had been a picture of sunshine and good health; a complete opposite to the gaunt figure sitting opposite me. She looked as though the life had been sucked out of her by some kind of astral parasite.

For the sake of the story, we will call her June (since I am writing this in June and I want to protect her identity).

A couple of days after a slumber party with friends, June lost her appetite and stopped going out with friends. After a week, her mother started to worry because now as June was becoming lethargic and was starting to "die from inside". They had been to a doctor who did the responsible things. He had referred her to have blood tests and a series of other checkup with a specialist.

The test showed nothing was wrong physically and the specialist could not explain it. The other girls were all healthy and there was nothing to show what could have caused it.

Her mother decided to bring her daughter to me.

My first question was to ask why she had brought her to me. June was sick and I'm not a doctor.

By this time I was already looking at the girl's palm and examining the life line as well as the colours around finger tips and palm in general. While the lifeline did have a slight faint look towards the end of it, I knew that there was still plenty of energy passing through it. This girl was making herself sick!

I looked her in the eye and asked her, "Why are you making yourself sick?"

Her mother looked surprised to hear this and we both looked at June who denied it although I could see something was battling in her mind. 

Normally I ask first-timers if they have had a reading before. It's a general question usually to let people relax. This time I already knew the answer before I asked the question.

The girl was surprised at first and nodded in confirmation, telling me she already knew what I was going to tell her.

"Then you already know that your friends were extremely irresponsible," I said.

Her friend at the slumber party had done the equivalent of what other teenagers sometimes do at parties with ouija boards (another very strongly misunderstood item). Rather instead of a real ouija board, they created a makeshift version out of cards with words and letters written on them. For the planchette they found a glass and turned it upside down on the table so that their fingers were moving it about and touching different letters and words to create answers to their questions.

When it came to my client's daughter's turn, the "spirit" (which I strongly suspect was not a spirit this time but a very silly girl) announced that June was going to die and that it would happen within 6 weeks!

June's mother asked, "Can you see if it is true?"

I traced my finger along June's life line. "Your energy is strong inside you. The blockage that is making you feel sick is not from anything physical such as illness. It's a dis-ease."

I explained that dis-ease, in this case, was simply a LACK OF EASE. She was worrying herself to death needlessly.

June found it hard to believe at first as she could not believe she was making herself sick until I said, "Were you worrying before the reading?" (Her answer was no)

"Were you worried AFTER the reading?" (Yes)

"Now," I replied. "Would you have been worried if you had not even had the reading? Do you think you would have been sick and dying if you had not been told so?"

The girl stopped to think and I knew she was starting to see the light. So I started explaining some more things to her that were very evident about her hand.

"I'm not a doctor," I told her, "so I won't give you medical advice but I do know plenty of things already just by looking at your hand. This is what I am seeing. I see a hand which has healthy colouring in it, despite the rest of you being pale. Your life line is full of energy so I know that you can live a very long time if left to your own devices. You're a strong girl and you will live for a very long time when you choose to do so."

She looked hesitant but I knew that she could see sense. So I gave her the extra nudge.

"The only spirits that you have to worry about in life are the ones the liquid ones that come from a bottle. No other spirit will ever hurt you and there were no spirits telling you things at that party. It was your friends playing a very nasty joke. Are you going to let them win?"

"No way," she said, brightening.

She also admitted that the girl who "gave the message from the ouija board" was not one of the nicest girls either. I told her that, if anything, the other girl just wanted to spew out her own poison because she was jealous of June.

I've seen June again a few times and I am happy to say that she's not died. Rather she is living a very full life and has many great things coming up for her still. I'd bet my career upon it.

The point of this story is about how much we take on from others around us and about how much what we say can affect others as well.

Be careful what you say to your children, your family and your friends and enemies. The words we speak are the seeds of change. They can be noxious weeds that choke yourself and others to death or they can be beautiful trees full of bountiful life.

You have the choice of what you think and of what you say and we all reap what we sow.

Which do you want to have in your life?

I wish you all the great things that life can offer you in abundance.

Find Out What A Thumb Tells About A Man's.....

What A Thumb Tells About A Man And His....

by Chris Johnson

(c) Copyright 2014

I recently watched a movie with a well-known actor playing the part of the action hero. During a close-up scene, I had the chance to see the hand – in particular the thumb. As I found myself studying the shape of the thumb, including its nail, I realised I was doing the same thing my palmistry teacher told me about years ago!

Henry Winkler is known for his Thumbs Up as The Fonz.

You don't have to be an expert palmist to know a lot about a person when looking at their hand. Indian palmists have been known to look mostly at the thumb itself to know whether someone is truly a man of action or simply a wannabe lounge lizard.

When I read palms at a corporate event or at one of my Home Psychic Parties, I always check first for the flexibility of the thumb before looking at the rest of the palm.

If it bends backwards really easily from the joint, it's regarded as flexible. People with these thumbs are generally easy-going, optimistic and positive, as well as being flexible in their approaches to things in life. They're the kind of person who can sometimes be seen as a “yes man” but that is usually only to buy some time rather than create a scene.

Stiff thumbs tell me that the person is determined. They can also be very reliable. If the thumb is really stiff as a board (rather than being firm), you would be hard pressed to ever get them to change their mind.

If you are in business or working in sales, this can be very useful knowledge to have. For example, if someone has a flexible thumb, the chances are they are a very easy person to persuade or get onto your side. Depending on the shape, they can also be your greatest ally. On the other hand (pun not intended), a stiff thumb is not someone you can sell to easily. If you try pushing your ideas to them, they will more than likely throw up a block for you and dig their heels in out of stubborness … even if you know that you are right. When that happens, step back a little in your approach and then after a while try again from a slightly different angle.

Another tell-tale sign is the size of the thumb. The longer the thumb, the more successful the person is said to be. They can also be quite dominant, show natural leadership skills and influence.

Napoleon Bonaparte, for example, was said to have had an extremely large thumb and history tells exactly how much he did manage to achieve before he lost.

If a person has a short thumb, they are usually lacking in will and can be stubborn usually for no apparent reason. Medium thumbs are more balanced in their outlook, tending to be more fair in life and are quite capable of asserting themselves when needed.

Obama's thumb is long. The phalanges are
mostly equal giving balance although his
first phalange is slightly longer of the two

Some of you are also thinking, at this point, about the rumour that the size of a man's thumb is directly related to the length of his penis. For the purpose of this nugget of information, I have not actually researched this so cannot verify.

People who are more likely to be successful in business also have large thumbs. There's another interesting thing to check the next time you look at a movie about businessmen. Have a look at Leonardo di Caprio's thumb when you're watching him in The Great Gatsby or The Wolf Of Wall Street and then tell me if he was well cast for the roles!

The other parts to look at, which is probably not as easy to do in everyday life, are the phalanges of the thumb. On the first phalange (at the tip) is the section that illustrates the will. The second phalange represents a person's logic.

If the will is larger than the logic section then that person is likely to be one who acts before they have put enough thought into something. This can be good if they are taking the right action before procrastination or negative thoughts set in to change their minds. Of course, it can also mean they can be quick with rash thinking likely to “make the decision right later” rather than make the right decision.

If the logic is larger than the will section, you are likely to have a procrastinator looking you in the eye. The degree of this can be further clarified by checking their palm itself which is beyond the scope of this article but it's a very good indicator just the same. Either way, they tend to put more thought into things before acting upon their decision.

When both logic and will are about the same or equal, you have a person balanced between their willpower and their thinking. Their decisions are well thought out and are likely to be very balanced between their positive and negative thinking (which can hold a procrastinator back).

Chances are you have been looking at your own thumb while reading this, particularly if you are a male. Some ladies are looking at and thinking about some men's thumbs as well.

There is a lot more that the thumb can tell us, including the thumbprint and the skin texture itself, which I discuss in greater detail during my talks.

If you have any questions, or if you find yourself looking at other people's thumbs in movies and real life, please feel free to contact me at my website
