Pinnacle Numbers and their interpretation

Pinnacle numbers are another one of those calculations that

are based on your life path number. A pinnacle is an
experience occurring over a specific time in our life.
Each person is thought to have four pinnacle periods and
depending on the numerology each of these periods of life
experience will have their own unique flavor or theme to
them.

The First Pinnacle covers the early maturation years from

roughly 0 years to 28-35, depending on your Life Path
Number.

The Second Pinnacle covers what is normally for most people

the child bearing or family raising years.

The Third Pinnacle covers middle age and growing maturity.

The Fourth Pinnacle covers the senior years.

The timing of pinnacles varies for each of the first nine

Life Path numbers. Here is a chart for determining the
timing of pinnacles keyed to your Life Path number:

The Pinnacles (age span for each of the 4 pinnacles)

Life 1st 2nd 3rd Final

Path # Pinnacle Pinnacle Pinnacle Pinnacle

1 0-35 36-44 45-53 54 & beyond

2/11 0-34 35-43 44-52 53 & beyond

3 0-33 34-42 43-51 52 & beyond

4/22 0-32 33-41 42-50 51 & beyond

5 0-31 32-40 41-49 50 & beyond

6 0-30 31-39 40-48 49 & beyond

7 0-29 30-38 39-47 48 & beyond

8 0-28 29-37 38-46 47 & beyond

9 0-27 28-36 37-45 46 & beyond

For this example we are using Martha Stewart who was born
August 3, 1941.

Our first step would be to calculate her Life Path number.

The Life Path number is calculated by reducing the birthday
to a single digit. In her case, the calculation would look
like this.

8 + 3 + (1+9+4+1) = 8+3 + 6 = 17

1+7 = 8

Martha Stewart's Life Path number is 8. From looking at

the chart above we can see that her first life Pinnacle
period lasted from birth to age 28, the second life period
lasted from age 30 to 38, the third pinnacle period lasted
from 38 to 46 and the fourth lasts from age 47 and beyond.

The First Pinnacle is defined by adding the month and day

of birth. In her case 8 +3 = 11.

Note that master numbers are not reduced in any of these

equations.

The Second Pinnacle is defined by adding the number that

was arrived at by reducing your year of birth plus the day
of birth. In Martha's case the equation is 3+6 = 9

The Third Pinnacle is arrived at by adding together the sum

of the first and second pinnacle numbers. In Martha's case
the equation is:

11 (First Pinnacle) + 9 (Second Pinnacle) = 20

2+0 = 2.

Martha Stewart's Third Pinnacle Number is 2.

The Fourth Pinnacle number is arrived at by adding the

month and year of birth. In Martha's case the equation is:
8 + (1+9+4+1) = 8 + 6 = 14. This reduces to 1+4 =5.

Martha's Fourth Pinnacle year is 5.

From looking at this we can interpret Martha Stewart's four

life pinnacles in the following way.

Her First Life Pinnacle was dominated by the number 11.

This of course is a master number and Martha Stewart
probably spent her early years being the master of many
different disciplines. It can also mean extreme sensitivity
and being motivated by a desire to please parents.

Her Second Life Pinnacle is a number 9. This marked a

period in Stewart's life where she made dramatic sweeping
changes. It is a period that marked the beginning of her
great success as well as the end of her marriage. The
flavor of this era in her life would have been very
emotional. Any move she made for better or worse would have
been drastic.

Her Third Life Pinnacle number is 2, which is all about

partnerships. This is the period in Stewart's life when she
broke free with the help of her business partner and
orchestrated massive deals with broadcasters and K-Mart.

Her Fourth Life Pinnacle number is 5. This is the period

Stewart is in now. This means that her career is not likely
to show any signs of slowing down and that she will likely
be influential until very late her in life. It is also a
karmic number that can indicate freedom from financial or
domestic worries.

1st Pinnacle Numbers

Once again, to calculate your First Pinnacle number, which
describes your developing years (from the mid twenties to
the mid thirties depending on your Life Path number) you
must add the month and day of birth and reduce it to a
single digit.

Once again, here is your reference for finding out when

the First Pinnacle Period will occur in your life. Note
that to find the timing you also need to calculate your
Life Path number.

Life Path 1st Pinnacle

Number Period In Years

1 0-35
2/11 0-34
3 0-33
4/22 0-32
5 0-31
6 0-30
7 0-29
8 0-28
9 0-27

Here are the interpretations for the 1st Pinnacle Numbers

In general the influence of the number 1 pinnacle is

about your need for creating an identity that is separate
from your parents and uniquely your own. It represents the
desire to express one's achievements and set down the
foundations for achievement later in life.
First Pinnacle 1

You are a born leader. Most of your youth was likely spent
on learning leadership skills and experimenting in social
situations to see how you could get on top of them.
Challenges you may have faced in this period may have
included overcoming stubbornness and selfishness.

First Pinnacle 2

This influence creates a very sensitive and imaginative

individual. You may have felt understood as a child and the
scars you bear from being hurt are probably carried over
into childhood. People with this influence like to stick
close to home and are very influenced by their mother or
heritage.

First Pinnacle 3

This creates a very imaginative, creative individual who

may be a bit too "out there" for others to handle in their
early years. Unless you were specifically guided to develop
your artistic and creative potential you may not have
benefited from your own latent talents during this period.
Others may simply perceive you as irresponsible.

First Pinnacle 4

You may have been born into poverty or demanding

circumstances. For one reason or another you may have spent
much of your childhood working. The good news is that
despite your lack of freedom, you will usually have
achieved a lot during this formative period. This can also
indicate an individual pursuing a heavy academic career.

First Pinnacle 5

This number indicates that it might have been very

difficult for you to develop any firm foundations or roots
as a child. Your family may have moved a lot or you may
have been a foster child or adopted. This restlessness may
have resulted in a lack of focused direction in your
twenties and thirties.

First Pinnacle 6

You may have found it hard to let go of the apron strings.

It is likely that the immediate members of the family
hampered your freedom by relying on you too heavily for
financial or emotional support. This pinnacle number can
also indicate an early or arranged marriage.

First Pinnacle 7

You were a brilliant child that was probably very

misunderstood by others. The difficulties that you
encountered socially as a child have probably lead to
misunderstandings in adult life. Unable to connect very
well to others emotionally, you may prefer to retreat to a
world of your own.

First Pinnacle 8

This is the mark of someone who may have been born into an
affluent family. If not you may have demonstrated an early
talent for commerce or business that led you to be quite
well off before the age of 30. This number is so practical
that you may have faced the "real world" by going into
business instead of getting an education.

First Pinnacle 9

You have a lot of convictions and principles that may have

been expressed at an early age by fighting off bullies and
standing up for the underdog. You are giving and altruistic
in nature, to the point that it might be difficult for you
to maintain a job or pursue a money making venture. You are
very ethical and wise from a young age.

First Pinnacle 11

You are born with a great deal of imagination, intelligence

and energy. The problem is that it is hard for a young
person to handle the intensity of being this number. You
are friendly, cooperative and are very distressed by a lack
of harmony. Chances are that you discover psychic talents
before the age of 30.

First Pinnacle 22

You were probably born into some privilege and if not,

managed somehow to build something great that you can call
your own before the age of 30. As you are such an intense
and intelligent individual, your talents may have been
unnoticed when you were a child and your natural brilliance
may have been mistaken for waywardness.
2nd Pinnacle Numbers
Once again to calculate your Second Pinnacle number, which
describes your developing years (from the late twenties to
the mid forties depending on your Life Path number) you
must add the year of birth plus the day of birth and reduce
it to a single digit. Don't reduce this down to a master
number if the result is a master number 11 or 22.

Once again here is also your reference for finding out when
the Second Pinnacle Period will occur in your case. Note
that to find the timing you also need to calculate your
Life Path number.

Life Path 2nd Pinnacle

(by age)

1 36-44
2/11 35-43
3 34-42
4/22 33-41
5 32-40
6 31-39
7 30-38
8 29-37
9 28-36

Second Pinnacle 1

You are likely to be a very successful and dynamic adult.

Chances are that most things in your life are well set and
you are likely to have the perfect job and the perfect
family. Your achievements are more than likely to be well
recognized by the public. A career in politics might be
evolving.

Second Pinnacle 2

Your success in life greatly depends on your ability to

work with other people. You might find yourself working a
lot behind the scenes in order to achieve a greater goal.
You are not likely to be in business by yourself. Both your
work and family life may be very demanding during these
years.

Second Pinnacle 3

Your livelihood might depend greatly on how others perceive

you. You might not have children or settled down at this
time and instead are enjoying some kind of unorthodox
relationship. Chances are that you are a performer,
freelancer or leading a lifestyle that stimulates your
interest in popular culture.

Second Pinnacle 4

During this period in your life, you may find yourself

facing a lot of rivals or struggling with some kind of
competition. Unfortunately this does forecast a time when
finances may be limited for some years. Fortunately
economic hardships can be overcome with practicality and
the willingness to work hard.

Second Pinnacle 5

You probably will lead an unorthodox lifestyle and it is

very likely you will be travelling a lot during these
years. Individuals in this period may forsake domesticity
and financial security to satisfy a thirst for adventure. You
are likely to be your own boss or a freelancer. Flexibility
is key to your happiness.

Second Pinnacle 6

This is an influence that foresees the predominance of home

and family matters over anything else. Usually this
pinnacle number is associated with having many children or
having an extended family living with you. Chances are that
you have also forsaken a dream or a career to take care of
family matters.

Second Pinnacle 7

Unless you have somehow made a name for yourself as a

serious academic you might find this period in your life to
be very slow and uninspiring. Chances are that you have
forsaken friends and family to follow some sort of passion
or personal pursuit. Individuals under this influence
often find themselves in therapy or preferring to be a
hermit.

Second Pinnacle 8

During this influence, you are likely to prosper and

movement up through traditional corporate and business
structures is relatively easy. This is a very rational
period in your life and more than likely you will be
successfully building a financial empire. Your family life
is also likely to be quite settled and happy.

Second Pinnacle 9

During this influence some kind of crisis may occur that

changes your perspective of the world drastically. Usually
this involves some kind of healing crisis or devastating
emotional experience that puts you on a spiritual path.
During this time you will become less selfish and more
philanthropic in your ways.

Second Pinnacle 11

The emphasis on this period is on either looking for a

teacher or using your personal skills to spread some sort
of message. You are eager to acquire new wisdom and often
find the mentor that you need to further a career in the
arts or to develop spiritually. Many find this a very
optimistic and positive influence.

Second Pinnacle 22

Many great things are completely possible for you. If you

have not had an education or a big break to do with your
career, chances are that you will get the opportunity to
practically fulfill those dreams now. It is also very
likely that you will meet a soulmate and begin a family at
this time. If you have already started a family it is
likely that the love between all of you will grow even
stronger.

3rd Pinnacle Numbers

Once again to calculate your Third Pinnacle number, which
describes your developing years (from the late thirties to
the early forties depending on your Life Path number) you
must add the year of birth plus the day of birth and reduce
it to a single digit. Don't reduce this down to a master
number if the result is a master number 11 or 22.

Below is your reference for finding out when the Second

Pinnacle Period will occur in your case. Note that to find
the timing you also need to calculate your Life Path
number. Notice too that this period is shorter for some
numbers and longer for others.

Life Path 3rd Pinnacle

Period By Age

1 45-53
2/11 44-52
3 43-51
4/22 42-50
5 41-49
6 40-48
7 39-47
8 38-46
9 37-45
Third Pinnacle 1

If you have not been able to realize any of your dreams by

now you will probably act like a bull in a china shop,
taking out your frustration on all that dare bring up how
little you have achieved. However if previous periods
favored your independence and opportunities for leadership
you will likely see yourself promoted to where you want to
be during this phase.

Third Pinnacle 2

If you have let disputes or family problems go unattended for

some years then you are likely to face them as full-blown
crises at this time. It is also likely that you may have
lost control of your career and by necessity have to work
for someone else or are making a lower income than you
expected.

Third Pinnacle 3

If you have always wanted a career in show biz or the arts,

you might be given a chance for fame later in life during
these years. This is definitely an inspirational time that
will also serve to expand your social circle. You might
also find yourself becoming an influential voice in your
community. Falling in love is also possible.

Third Pinnacle 4

This phase will have you reaping what you have sown so far
in life. If your previous Pinnacle numbers were supportive
to career and money then you will likely see a big pay off
from those efforts. If you have worked long and hard to
earn somebody's heart than you will likely fall in love. If
you have not put much effort into anything then this could
be a difficult, lonely and even poverty-stricken time.

Third Pinnacle 5

This influence may have you face a sudden change of some

kind that necessitates the need for you to be very
adaptable or flexible. You could face a lay off or get a
job in a foreign country. You might also have to adjust
emotionally after a divorce or a death. Still this
influence indicates a second chance for a success and a
brand new start in life.

Third Pinnacle 6

During these years finances and career will be of less

concern and your focus will turn to enjoying the company of
family and friends. Sometimes this influence brings an
older relative to live with you or brings new additions to
the family (especially grandchildren.) Peace, abundance and
family happiness usually dominate these years.

Third Pinnacle 7

This period may bring with it an upsetting incident that

throws you for a loop emotionally or puts you in a negative
state. Your overall inclination will be to avoid other
people and escape into fantasy or addiction. This also
might indicate a period of being a workaholic, where nothing else
matters but money or fame. Many people seek therapy for a
mid life crisis during this kind of phase.

Third Pinnacle 8

These years could bring you a period of unexpected

prosperity. You may finally acquire all of the material
things you need or acquire a property. An inheritance or
lottery win is also likely at this time. A second career
or home business started under this influence is also
likely to return a generous income.

Third Pinnacle 9

This influence may bring you a spiritual awakening of sorts

that makes you want to do more for others than you do for
yourself. World events and problems may concern you more
than usual and you may be more inclined to live by your
convictions. Often during this phase individuals get rid of
people or jobs in their life that don't agree with their
ethics.

Third Pinnacle 11

At this point you are likely to suffer some sort of mid

life crisis that makes you search for the deeper meaning of
life. This influence usually brings some sort of shattering
of illusions and the need to make careful plans about how
one can realize the goals of their higher self in the
future. You may also be very interested in spirituality or
the occult during this phase and less interested in money
or your social life.

Third Pinnacle 22

Usually this influence at this time brings some kind of

award or great achievement, especially if your other
Pinnacle numbers have supported your aims in the past. If
not you will still be given the opportunity to show that
side of you that "dares to be grand" whether it be in the
spiritual, business or relationship areas of your life. The
overall theme of this influence is very calm, upbeat and positive.
