The Key to Barack and Michelle's Love Affair

Why Barack and Michelle are perfect for each other.

From the looks of it, Barack and Michelle seem madly in love, but what do their numbers reveal? We went to the world famous Numerologist, Glynis McCants to find out the secret behind Barack and Michelle's love affair.

Numerology is a science of numbers. It is 2,500 years old, and was created by Pythagoras, the famous Mathematician. The belief is that every thing in the Universe has a vibration, including people. Each vibration has a number assigned to it with certain traits. If you have a person's first and last name, and full date of birth, you can discover exactly who they are by using the Pythagorean Number System.

Barack Obama:
Born 8/4/1961

Michelle Obama:
Born 1/17/1964

Here are their 6 Numerology Chart Numbers derived from their name and full date of birth.

In Numerology, there are 6 Numbers that make up your chart. These Numbers are the blueprint of who you are. There are three ways that the numbers interact with each other. Each number is considered a Natural Match, Compatible or a Challenge to each other.

A Natural Match Number means you have an instant rapport and an easygoing understanding of each other. A Compatible Number means you get along most of the time, and can learn to agree to disagree. A Challenge Number means that no matter what you say you can be misunderstood; it is as if you are speaking two different languages. It can make the relationship difficult.

Ideally, you do not want to have any more than two Challenge Numbers in your Chart comparison. Well lucky for the Obama's, they only have one! ☺ Their charts read like this: Compatible (1-9), Challenge (4-9), Compatible (5-9), Natural Match (4-8), Natural Match (2-2) and Natural Match (3-9). This is a wonderful chart comparison for the two of them, and means they were meant to be together.

Their Life Path Numbers (the most important number in a Personal Numerology Chart) are both a 2, and the 2 Vibration is the Number for love. So when they made this commitment, they knew they were in it for the long haul. This explains why so many people comment on their obvious chemistry. In their relationship, they would rather love each other than fight.

Before their Life Paths reduce down to a 2, they have the Master Number 11 (1+1), which tells me they are both incredibly smart. They are intellectual equals, and I am sure that they are mentally stimulated by one another.

When I look at Michelle's Chart, she has four 9s, and the 9 is the highest number in Numerology. It is considered the "old soul" number, and sometimes people will feel intimated by that number. With four 9s in her chart, it also tells me that family is the most important thing to her, and she will always be extremely protective of it.

The 8 in Michelle's chart tells me she is tougher and more outspoken than her husband. When she becomes First Lady, we will definitely hear from her, because you cannot be born on an 8 day, and not have strong convictions. It is interesting to note that Hillary Clinton was also born on an 8 day, and we certainly heard from her as First Lady.

The 1 in Obama's chart explains his competitive drive, and how he was able to win the Presidency. One thing is clear after studying their charts; they are definitely a Power Couple, and it is no accident that they are making history together.
