'The Numbers Lady' Sums up Barack Obama

By The Staff at wowOwow.com
Numerologist Glynis McCants

Glynis McCants, a numerologist commonly called "The Numbers Lady," summed up Barack Obama yesterday on Coast-To-Coast AM radio with George Noory. McCants, who has a huge following for using numbers to make forecasts and gain insight into the human condition, added up some very interesting figures for our future president.

Using formulas she invented, McCants predicted a difficult year for our promising president. It’s a time, she said, for him to have more "freedom." She also foresees a big trip in Obama’s future — even though the entire family just returned from a nearly two-week-long vacation in Hawaii. (And, also, he’ll be president — of course he’ll be taking big trips!) McCants also sent Obama an alarming message: to make sure he’s "not abusing any substances such as food, sex or alcohol." 

We’re not sure we can make sense of her methods, but why don’t you give it a try? The Numbers Lady says:

"Barack Obama is going into a Personal Year Cycle of ‘5,’ which is a challenge to his Lifepath number of ‘2,’ but if he can weather the storm of this year, he’ll prove to be an effective president," she stated. "[Vladimir] Putin is going into a Personal Year of ‘1’ which shows he means to win, and go after complete power," McCants added.

According to McCants’s website about calculating and understanding your Lifepath number, Personal Year and more, a Personal Year of "5" means:

This is a time to look at having more freedom! Maybe you have been held down, and way too constricted in the way you are living your life. You may feel you were way too disciplined and felt trapped. This is year to play! If you can take a trip in the Personal Year of 5, you are going to be so glad you did! Something big, like going to Greece, Tahiti or somewhere you have never been before. Also, take a look at the physical side of your life. Make sure you[‘re] not abusing any substances such as food, sex, alcohol, drugs etc. When it comes to commitment, it is not necessarily the year to get married, or move from where you live. It is more of a time to say, “What can I do to make myself feel better? What can I do to be happy?"

A Lifepath number of "2" means:

TWOS want peace. They make good mediators. They are very loyal, and when they say that they love you, count on it! They welcome companionship and the chance to share their lives with someone special. The flip side is that if they feel threatened or pushed to the wall, they become the terrible 2s. But ultimately, they do not want conflict.

Note: Barack Obama was born August 4, 1961. According to McCants’s website, to find what Personal Year Cycle you are in, add the month and day from your birthday to the World Number of 2 and reduce it down to one digit (2+0+0+9 =11 1+1=2). 8+4=12. 12+2 = 14. 1+4=5. To find your Lifepath, you add the month, date and year of your birthday and reduce it down to one digit. So, for Obama: 8+4+1+9+6+1 = 29 2+9=11 1+1=2

So can we take this blondie seriously? McCants has been studying Numerology for 21 yearsand built decent street cred. According to her website, in October 2008 on "The View," she used Numerology to predict that Barack Obama and Joe Biden would be the new men in the White House. Incredible!

I’ve heard of these number people. We had one locally. Somehow the people crowd seem to follow them for quite a while. I’ve never understood why.

Humm…I spent the morning gazing into my crystal ball, which says this is bunk. But give me another minute to call a voodoo priestess and get another opinion;-)

It always amazes me how some people have the balls to do stuff like this. I mean… numerology itself is questionable, but she has invented her OWN system? The lady has balls.

Your date of Obama’s birth is wrong. He was born August 4, 1961. Cast out the 9 because it just results in the same answer. So.. 8 + 4 + 1 + 6 + 1 = 20 and then you reduce that to a single digit. Therefore he is a 2. What she fails to add about the birth path of 2’s, is that they have difficult times making decisions. They like help doing that, although they know ultimately they have to do it. They have come into this lifetime to understand the nature of polarity - in other words pairs of opposites and how they interact. They can get hung up arguing in their heads about good and evil. “Is it better to do it this way or that way?” It can cause stress within them. They are imaginative, enthusiastic and dedicated. They want peace because when the opposite sides are fighting it makes them very uncomfortable. Approach/approach or avoidance/avoidance conflicts drive them nuts unless they have system of elimination to work out their decisions. If they can’t do that they would rather vote “present”. They strive to maintain balance of the two sides. Usually make great dancers because of their balance. It seems like one of Obama’s talents is to bring the sides together. Man, that is crazy work if he can do it in our government. I will have to go to the website to understand the 5, because there are many ways to work out someone’s numbers. Their name, the vowels, the consonants, the year of activity. I am not real conversant on all of that. I do know that the 5’s are the rebels of the number system. Kind of a “don’t hem me in”. And they love their freedom. They would rather escape from stressful situations not wanting to be hampered by ties that bind. But it has always seemed to me that the birth number has the most influence. Van Gogh was a 5.

Frannie: What she fails to add about the birth path of 2’s, is that they have difficult times making decisions. They like help doing that, although they know ultimately they have to do it. Only now is any of this beginning to make sense.
