Maturity Number, sum total of birth date and birth name, gives us a clue as to what our ultimate life purpose might be. Realizing the potential of this number is a key to inner fulfilment in our maturity.
A Maturity number of 1 signifies that you need to live your life with originality and courage. This is the number of the loner, not because these types don’t like people but because others tend to slow them down. Reluctant to arrest their pace long enough to teach and encourage others, ones tend to lead by example. People with 1 as a Maturity number must have the freedom to move and act alone without having to confer with others before doing so. They need to define themselves as unique individuals in their own right, breaking new ground as they find their own way.
The number 1 is the archetype of the Hero. Ones need to challenge and be challenged, and so they attract situations that demand assertiveness and bravery. Ideally this involves defending the weak and fighting for what is right. Ones have little trouble facing off against someone who has offended them. They can be much maligned or envied for their daring, dash, and desire for face-to-face confrontation. That, however, is the imperative of 1 as a Maturity number.
A Maturity number of 2 signifies a life as an affiliator and reconciler. With a strong need to cooperate and associate, twos like to be part of a couple. They have a reputation for having a kind and sensitive nature, and are happy to remain in the background, leaving the spotlight for more extroverted types.

Their special forte is one-to-one situations in which they are able to tune into the other’s emotional climate and find compromises that satisfy everyone. Natural-born mediators, they are known for their tact and diplomacy. Sympathetic to other points of view, they easily see both sides of a question. Twos are able to smooth things over and smooth ruffled feathers because they are genuinely concerned about what others are experiencing and want to accommodate them if possible. Themselves wanting to be surrounded by harmony, twos also often have a flair for art, music or dance.
A Maturity number of 3 signifies a life in pursuit of beauty, love, pleasure, and self-expression. Three is the archetype of the Performer.

They love being in the spotlight and thrive on the attention they receive when they do something noteworthy.
Threes attract situations that demand vibrancy and cordiality. There is a restlessness in their nature and a need to remain occupied and involved.

Twos have a reputation for having a kind and sensitive nature, and are happy to remain in the background, leaving the spotlight for more extroverted types.
As time passes and you become more skilled at life, you may leap into the higher orbit of the 11 vibration from time to time, possibly with increasing frequency over the years. This is a whole new sphere where fame is a definite possibility. You will develop a more far-reaching vision and a wider (perhaps worldwide) sphere of action. As you draw more and more upon your higher mind, you will increase in intuitive abilities, possibly even becoming psychic. Brimming with insights to share, you are likely to be drawn to teaching, speaking or writing. This could be on a variety of topics. With your spiritual inspirations you may become a preacher or religious leader. With your compassionate idealism and sense of justice, you may crusade for causes such as peace. Or with your original, inventive mind you may find yourself on the cutting edge of science or technology. Whatever you do on your 11 Maturity vibration, your life will most likely be an extremely active one of successfully meeting challenges and taking big risks.
A Maturity number of 22 is too high and intense a vibration for many people to live up to, at least at first.

On this level you are concerned with building order and stability into the world, and in doing so you develop the qualities of thoroughness, precision and dependability. Focused on the material plane and firmly planted on this earth, you want to see concrete results in all your endeavors. The archetype you are living out at this point in your life is that of the Builder.
As time passes and you become more skilled at life, you may leap into the higher orbit of the 22 vibration from time to time, possibly with increasing frequency over the years. This is a whole new sphere where fame is a definite possibility. From the Builder you become the Master Builder, one who draws upon higher mind and a broader vision to create concrete realities on a grand scale. You may turn your inspired inventiveness to creating physical structures such as buildings or engineering projects, social structures such as organizations, or structures built out of concepts or information. Working for the benefit of humanity, you may become a statesman, leader and policymaker, or you may accumulate wealth and power which you use in philanthropic pursuits. Whatever you do, to handle this intense vibration beneficially, it is important to avoid the temptation to overwork and to keep grounded in your relationships with loved ones.
