power-hungry, which may explain why the USA has held its

position as the leader of the world for long.

India has been home to many spiritual gurus and is com-

monly known as the “land of spirituality.” Indeed it is, even on an energetic level. The word “India” holds the frequency

of the 10, a master number for the earth-guide energy. Com-

bining the pioneering, isolated, achievement-based, first

physical-plane 1 with the 0 symbol of the infinite or spiritual awareness shows why the country has shared such a vast

amount of spiritual wisdom with the world through its

teachers, gurus, and texts. The word “India” brings spiritual

wisdom (0) into the physical (1).

To spice things up, let’s look at a city that doesn’t exist

anymore but still continues to hold mystery and intrigue

thousands of years after its supposed demise. The lost city of Atlantis is believed to have been home to an advanced civilization that existed, according to the information contained

within the writings of the Greek philosopher Plato, approxi-

mately 11,000 years ago but was destroyed by a cataclysmic

event in 9000 BCE. There may be a reason why Atlanteans

are believed to have been highly advanced. The lost civiliza-

tion was said to have advanced technologies and knowledge

far ahead of the time period when it existed. The name “At-

lantis” holds the energy of the creative visionary 6. Could it be that the city’s name vibration allowed those residing there to harness the visionary “bigger picture” energy of the 6 vibration to advance rapidly ahead of their time?

Among my more spiritual clients, I have found over the

past couple of years that more people are being drawn to the

136 Advanced Words 101

state of California for both work and play. The word “Cali-

fornia” vibrates to the base frequency of 7, the truth-seeker number. At a time when the world’s financial structures are

crumbling and the corporations are being exposed as cor-

rupt, it seems many people are gravitating to places that res-

onate with truth and integrity to find a sense of inner

balance. Having traveled to many cities, provinces, and states in North America over the years, I can account for the fact

that even the vibration of a place’s name can affect the peo-

ple living in it. For example, New York City is known for its

fashion-conscious crowd; New York City is a 6, the number

of creativity, creative expression, and being the visionary. Los Angeles, which is also the home of Hollywood and the TV

and movie industries, is a 10. The 10 combines the energies

of the pioneering, trailblazing 1 with the spiritually aware 0.

The 10 holds adaptable energy, but also likes to keep life fun and light, preferring to have a good time over dealing with

serious matters.

It’s worth noting the energies corresponding with the

names of the country, state or province, and city where you

live to understand the vibrations those words are adding to

or subtracting from your energy. When you travel, do you

feel more alive in other cities than your current state or city?

Based on your goals and dreams, a city that vibrates to a

practical and foundation-building 4 may not be a good fit for

someone who likes to live life with spontaneity and always

searching out freedom of expression.

Naming Intangible Objects

Do you call your car “Bessie” or the “Ole’ Jalopy”? If you’re the kind of person who likes to slap a name or label on intangible things, from cars to remote controls, what is that ener-

getic shift infusing into your environment? If you tend to

have more car trouble than the average person, maybe it’s

time to stop calling the car “Bessie,” which vibrates with the erratic, free-flowing, and unpredictable 5 energy.

It’s a common occurrence to name a boat or yacht. The

frequency the name or label holds can affect the experiences of those who enjoy the boat. The
Titanic
sank on its maiden voy-age, and the boat’s name quite possibly could have had an ef-

fect on the tragedy, influencing those on the boat including the captain and his crew. “Titanic” vibrates to the number 31/4.

Note that the inspirational, optimistic, imaginative, men-

tal-based 3 is at the helm with this name and the pioneering,

trailblazing, and driven physical-based 1 is in the weaker position. The base energy of the word is the practical, solid-foundation number 4, but this particular arrangement of the 4

(31/4) tends to be more impractical, being led by the overly

optimistic, social-butterfly 3. It seems the
Titanic
would have benefited from a more practical and enduring 4 name.

Naming intangible items can have an influence on you,

even though it is not part of your main essence. These inani-

mate objects affect your outer-environment energies and

how you view these items. Essentially, these labels are shap-

ing your beliefs or opinions, and in doing so, are shaping

what you manifest.

Different Languages

The letters in a word can be compared to musical notes on a

music sheet. Each musical note has its own set tone or vibra-

tion, and regardless of your native tongue, notes on a music

sheet will sound the same when interpreted and played. Sim-

ilarly, the “notes,” or letters, in a word have a set tone or vibration no matter the language with which it is deciphered.

According to the biblical scriptures, Hebrew is considered

to be the first language that was used by God when creating

the world. Many languages have evolved throughout the cen-

turies, yet English, which is not even the most-spoken lan-

guage in the world, is quickly becoming the global language.

With English-speaking countries at the hub of global com-

merce and the entertainment and media industries, there is a

growing need to learn functional English in order to stay

abreast of the current business world.

This book is based on the English language and the corre-

sponding alphabet, but the methods in this book can be used

in other languages as well. Words often do not mean the

same thing in all cultures and languages; because two words

in different languages might contain different letters, a word will vibrate to a different frequency depending on the language from which it is translated. If you speak other lan-

guages regularly, it is definitely worth your while to calculate the frequency of those words as well, to see what you may

be manifesting with them.

For example, in Hebrew, the word “love” is considered to

be a very special word; it not only means something different

Advanced Words 101 139

in the Hebrew culture than it does in Westernized cultures, it also adds to a different numerical sum and has a different energetic influence. The reference section in the back of this

book tells us that “love” in English adds to a 9, the number

representing both the beginning and end of a cycle and hu-

manitarian energy; in the negative, it can be judgmental and

critical. Think unconditional (positive 9) or conditional (negative 9) love. Alternatively, the Hebrew version of love is

ahava
, a two-part word that means “I give” and “I love.”

“Ahava” is the 6 energy, the creative-expression number, the

visionary and nurturer.

In other languages, the definition can be the same, but

the energetic meaning is different. The word “but” in English

translates to
pero
in Spanish. Their dictionary meaning is the same, but the energetic vibration is a bit different. “But” is a pessimistic, critical, and judgmental 6 while “pero” is also a judgmental energy, but in the form of the critical, opinionated, and narrow-minded 9.

For many languages, you can match the English alphabet

to find the numerical meaning of a word but there are some

exceptions to watch for. For example, the Hebrew alphabet is

alphanumeric: each Hebrew letter also has a numerical value

and can be used as a number. When calculating a Hebrew

word, it is best to use the Hebrew alphanumeric values to get

the most accurate energetic definition. A Hebrew gematria

conversion chart is best used in this case (see figure 1 in

Chapter 3).

If you are familiar with words or phrases in languages

other than English and are curious about the words’ ener-

140 Advanced Words 101

getic meanings in that form, go ahead and calculate their en-

ergetic meanings using a gematria chart similar to the one

found in Chapter 3. There are many available on the Internet

for the purpose of various language conversions.

There are many well-known quotes from famous people

like Hitler, Jesus, and Gandhi that have left lasting marks on the world through the power and context of the words they

chose. Originally, some of these words were not spoken in

English. Spoken in their original form, like any other trans-

lated vocabulary, the wording may or may not vary slightly

when translated to the English meaning.

Below are some of these quotes and the quotes’ main key

word meanings based on the English version:

“Hate is more lasting than dislike.”—Adolf Hitler

Most would consider Adolf Hitler to be memorable for his

unthinkable actions, but his words speak volumes about the

perceptions he held of his world. The energetic goldmines in

this phrase are “hate” and “dislike.” Although Hitler’s views

may have been skewed drastically from the truth, this phrase

is actually very true—hate is more lasting than dislike, literally and energetically. “Hate” is a 7 frequency; in the nega-

tive, it represents a deep-seated sense of distrust. “Dislike” is a 6 frequency; in the negative, like the word “war,” it represents pessimism, criticism, and judgment. Energetically

speaking, “hate” does have a stronger and more lasting im-

pression than “dislike,” as pessimistic thinking can be more

easily changed than a deep-seated sense of distrust.

“Everyone who seeks, finds.”—Jesus

“Seeks” and “finds” are the highlighted gems in this quote.

“Seeks” is the 5 energy, the number of freedom of expres-

sion. “Finds” is the 7, the deep and philosophical truth-seeker energy. There is certainly a deeper meaning here other than

just stating the fact that if we seek, we will find. When we

are free to express our uniqueness (5), we will find our truth (7). This truly is the essence or purpose of our existence, as we are all in search of our own truth, not the truth of anyone else. Although we will all find a different truth (7), it will be the right version of truth for us if we are free to express our unique expression (5).

“A man is but the product of his thoughts; what he thinks,
he becomes.”—Mahatma Gandhi

The igniting words in this phrase are “thinks” and “be-

comes.” “Thinks” vibrates to the 9, the number of idealism,

which goes perfectly with this word’s dictionary definition of

“to have or formulate in the mind.” “Becomes” resonates

with the 8, the number of confidence, independence, and

wisdom. This statement energetically impresses upon us that

we are independently responsible for creating our reality via

the thoughts we hold.

The current English alphabet is based on the Latin alpha-

bet, like the German and Swedish languages that also have

twenty-six-letter alphabets (based on the Latin version), both of which can be easily and directly converted to English.

Even Mandarin and Japanese can be converted to the English

142 Advanced Words 101

letter combination equivalent using widely available conver-

sion charts.

A letter has an unchanging frequency and many lan-

guages can be matched precisely letter for letter. When this is not possible, it is important to remember that a significant

part of language is our individual interpretation of it. Like the example of the word “love” in English and in Hebrew,

the word means something a bit different in each of those

languages, but depending on your culture, upbringing, and

personal views, it can be just the right meaning for you.

When converting words to their numerical equivalent, re-

gardless of the language, the most important influence is the

meaning of a word to the person using it. The wisest words

spoken are meaningless in a language not understood by the

listener.

The energetic meaning of a word is only a part of the

complete picture when it comes to utilizing the power of lan-

guage. When working with energy, it’s our choice as to how

we use it. We can choose to allow it to affect us in a positive or negative way, but our feelings and viewpoints of words

can also be shaped by what we have learned from outside

sources.

If you recall the reference in Chapter 1 to the child learn-

ing to speak who repeats a profane word, the word is neutral
