FIFTH PRINCIPLE OF CREATION
—[t]—5 as a Destiny Number shows that your soul has determined to try out all manner of temptations. So strong is the influence that about all you can do about it is to "pray that your flight be not in the winter," that is, that you will not have to make your decisions as to which way to go when in the MIDST of a temptation, but that you will have foresight and forewarning enough to know just what to do and DO it that way. You thus vibrate to the Destiny of ups and downs, and will do best in something that involves much travel, variety and change. You crave the chance to bring forth with originality and novelty. You will therefore find a pleasant destiny if you follow some such occupation as writer, teacher of Psychology, humorist, entertainer or linguist.
—[tt]—5 as a Public Appearance Number. Versatility of appearance is seen here. You would make a good actor or teacher along specialized lines. You would do well in appearing as a humorist or eccentric speaker. Your public appearance will be much helped by a fair knowledge of languages and a good pronunciation of words. You should get a good dictionary and keep it handy. Increase your vocabulary by having a regular habit of referring to the dictionary each time you are in doubt about the pronunciation, meaning or spelling of any word. Jot them down on a slip of paper till you can get to your dictionary.
—[u]—Warning To Number 5. Your entire struggle and downfall is in your own hands! If you do not make the brilliant success you should it will be because of your own self-indulgence, extremes in action or abuse of your opportunities and the breaking of friendships that would have helped you. Live at your highest powers, or you will sink to the lowest depths! There is practically no middle road.
The Fifth Principle of Creation
—[v]—The Fifth Principle of Creation is DISCARD or Rejection. DISCARD, properly exerted, always leads to HONOR.
—[w]—DISCARD always affects your health, your mind, your money matters, your perception of the higher Soul vibrations, in accordance with the way and manner that you use the principle of DISCARD.
—[x]—In the first chapter of Genesis we read that on the FIFTH Day the great whales and creatures of the sea were created. These were the first creatures who could be conscious of the Principle of DISCARD, when came the need to DISCARD their young; to DISCARD their enemies and those who should be detrimental to them. The greater their CONSCIOUS perception of the principle of DISCARD, the greater has been their HONOR among the animals, the more intelligence they have shown.
—[y]—In this life the Enumerator learns that some things must be discarded if he is to attain a position of HONOR. We DISCARD indulgences of some kinds to attain to honors in the physical or athletic fields; we DISCARD fiction and trashy ideas, oftentimes, if we would gain HONOR in scholarship; that is, on the Mind Plane; we DISCARD foolish expenditures if we would gain HONOR in money matters; we DISCARD wild theories if we would gain HONOR in the wisdom of the Psychic plane; we DISCARD slavery to any of the lower planes, if we would gain ascendancy on the Spirit Plane.
