What Happens When You Change Your Name? | Light Bright Numerology 

How did it go ?

How has your life changed ?

This is a great question! As we use our names, the more we use a specific one, the stronger it becomes. Our birth names will always provide the foundation, yet stage names can pull in additional energies for use within that arena of life. Simply put for this specific case, the birth name will prove strongest in daily personal affairs, while the stage name will be strongest in the arena of career and public perception

@@KaitlynElo what do you mean by "energy"? It's usually just a buzzword that "certified" quacks use to sound legit.. But let's hear it, I'd love a good laugh.. 😭

@@guggiuggi3687 Since you ask (and since laughter brings us into a higher frequency, allowing us to create better things from within) here it is, as I see it, as a “certified quack”:). If you are at all familiar with the research in quantum physics, biophysics, or even research into bio-energetic architecture, you may already be familiar with the idea that ‘energy’ is the foundational force of both physical and non-physical phenomena (ie-everything). In basic, Newtonian physics we all learn about kinetic energy in terms of E=mc2-that means Mass is essential. However, when you cross over into the realm of quantum mechanics, that equation no longer applies and, instead, is E=hv- where h is the constant and it is v (the frequency of the photon) that drives how energy behaves. Therefore, we can adjust energy based off frequencies that are emitted, and that is a simple concept, since everything has frequency- even your thoughts, feelings, and intentions, as demonstrated by plenty of esteemed scientists, including Dr. Emoto et. al. Cymatics is another thing to look into, if you’re interested (though you have already likely seen this demonstrated in your high school physics class). This field is quite interesting, in that it looks at how the energy of sound organizes matter into patterns. It is, quite literally, showing us the connection between the energy of vibrational sound frequencies and how physical form is structured. I’ve intentionally focused on less esoteric aspects, here, because I really don’t know what your background experiences are in terms of approaching anything immaterial (yet, still real). However, Eastern traditions have talked about this for ages, and we are really only catching up, using scientific language to describe the same phenomena, in the West. Ultimately, we know now that energy is a dynamic, interconnected field woven out of vibration and consciousness- this is what shapes the fabric of our reality across all planes (physical and subtle). Take numerology for whatever you want to get out of it-- it is only one of many languages to describe our inner and outer realities, and does so at a somewhat watered-down level online (since most are still yet to establish a good foundational understanding of how to use it). While numerology probably isn’t the language for you, the numbers are still archetypal representations of the foundational frequencies of our universe, commonly interpreted specifically for people (though can be for anything). 💗✨❤️

@@guggiuggi3687 I like that you have opened a dialogue! I am very curious what your definition of energy is- perhaps you can teach me something, since I am always eager to learn and explore further

Yes! The new name marks a shift in energy dynamics--new pressures, reactions, etc.

Haha ;) In general, I don't recommend people change names for the sake of changing them. I believe my attempt at cautioning people (as many of us actually do change our last names, due to marriage, for example) has been misinterpreted as 'hey! what name should I have?'. I need to address this. Anyway, though I know this was a sarcastic comment, it is appreciated and provided some comedic relief!

He may have been earnest… those may be names on his list 💙

@@juneelle370 You are right--that is absolutely a possibility! Thank you for pointing that out

I believe each system (even beyond Numerology, including astrology, human design, etc.) is a way to interpret energy. Like a language! We each have our own intuitive way of understanding (our own propensity toward a certain 'language'), and whichever system helps us tap into that is the system for us to use. :)

The 11/2 and 7 energies have quite a bit of overlap, especially in regards to spirituality, truth-seeking, and/or philosophy, so it is interesting that the switch is between these two numbers. Without knowing what is going on in your chart, at large, and without knowing the cycles you are in, it is unwise for me to give advice-- having the whole picture of a chart is necessary. In general, I (much to people's surprise) do not advocate changing your name for the sake of changing it. Perhaps, I will make a video specifically addressing this

Hi Melina, I'm sorry to hear this has been your life experience, so far. You can start with small changes, like going by a nickname or adding in a middle initial in your communications/introductions. The greatest impact would be by making a legal change, however doing so is not for everyone. Play around and see what you feel connected to. I'm also available for consultations, if you want to explore this together.

What website did you use to find out?

Thank you! 🙂

Hi Leslie, thank you so much for searching my website and for reaching out. I had taken a break from doing personal readings for a period, so I had taken down the page for scheduling with me. I will be putting it back up very soon, if you are still interested! You can also email me to schedule, before then, as I am already slowly taking on readings again.

Your intuition is telling you something here. If you do not feel aligned with this name/6 energy, do not change your name to it

@@thespacecowboy4124 This is absolutely possible 👍 and, actually, is already happening. There are some things in the chart that cannot change, even when you change your name. For example, the long- and short-term transits follow your birth name, as well as what is termed “karmic lessons”. You can change your name a million times, but these aspects will always follow from your birth name. Your birth name also lays the foundation upon which any name change rests. Any name change is layered upon it- you can think of physical color lenses. Let’s pretend your birth name is a blue glass, you change your name and this new name is red. Well, how you function in the world will not be purely red- the blue upon which it rests still plays upon it, and you can function in the world in various shades of purple. This is just an example, of course. You can determine how much blue versus red based on how often you use either name. The more a particular name is used, the more you strengthen that one’s energy ✨

@@KaitlynElo okay cool. So basically is that I have two different personas and karmic destinies I have to fulfill? Like with my original name my destiny number is 11. But with my current name my destiny number is 9. So if I claim both of these names do I claim both of these destinies? Please respond when you can

@@thespacecowboy4124 It’s not so much that you have two different destinies, it’s that you are able to draw upon the archetypal energies of both the 9 and the 11 (in a ratio specific to you) in the fulfillment of what you laid out as your life quest. I steer away from using the term ‘Destiny Number’, as it is a misnomer- that part of the chart has nothing to do with destiny. Instead, I use ‘Expression Number’, which is also the way I was taught. If you think of your Life Path as the hero’s quest, then the Expression Number personifies the hero on that quest. With your birth Expression number and your current Expression number, you (as the hero) have a blend of both the archetypes (9 & 11) and how much of either shines through can either be harnessed consciously (through your will) or subconsciously (this is how it usually plays out for most people who have name changes in their lives and is influenced by the frequency and length of time a name has been used). Your name changed when you were still quite young, so the Expression (and Soul Urge) of your current name would be stronger than your birth name (I am assuming you are older than 12 years). However, it does still influence you-especially as it influences the energies of your current name. I hope that helps!

Same here sis put in my paperwork today. Hope you’ve enjoyed your new name!
