The Significance of Your Name: Unveiling Your Soul's Destiny
Find out why your Soul chose the name you respond to as there are no coincidences in life.
"A person's name is an aspect of their soul.” - Kabbalistic teaching
When you realize that your name has not been chosen by your parents but by your own soul, you start wondering.
You might wonder why anyone would pick a name that invites teasing or misunderstanding. Well, let’s just say that the soul has a sense of humor; isn't concerned with societal judgments; and sees beyond labels to deeper meanings.
Our names aren't just random labels—they shape our personalities, reflecting our inner essence and guiding our spiritual journey.
How you respond to the world is how the world responds to you.
BTW: I spoke a great deal about the mysterious way my own soul named me in THIS VIDEO.
Besides that story, I want to share something I never said to anyone. I was always connected with two names:
My own name Christina, the numerological value of 1, the Christ Consciousness embodied (no, I am not calling myself a messiah, I am more or less indirectly telling you I have been through a lot of personal deaths and rebirths).
The second one as my cover-up name: Diana. I used to tell this name to anyone I didn’t want to know my real name. For once, I loved Princess Diana, for two, I loved Goddess Diana, too. My body gets energized by the stardust and moonlight. The numerological value of that name symbolically would be 2 for Diana is the goddess of the Moon.
Funny enough, I am a life path 11. So I carry both the energy of 1 and 2 within.
Coincidence? Never. Let me show you, how your name isn’t one either.

1. How the Soul Chooses Its Name
In Kabbalistic tradition and other esoteric teachings, it's believed our souls select our names before entering physical existence. Each name carries a unique energy imprint that mirrors our life's purpose, spiritual path, and even karmic patterns. Your name isn't just a title; it's a key to understanding your soul’s potential.
From my experience working with people, names do hold a significant essence that underlines some of the character traits, but more than that, it mirrors the path of the Soul in this lifetime.
When I say that, I would like you to stop thinking about every Christina being a coach. Matter of fact, it would be nice if we stopped thinking that a career equals purpose. Career is one aspect of it, for sure, but in reality, purpose is something that lies deep underneath that. Career is just your individual expression, but…
It does not matter what you do. You can be unemployed for that matter and still, you could have an enormous purpose, changing people’s lives. Because at the end of the day, that is why we are here anyway, to change one another, because it is much easier to look outside than to look within.
2. How to Uncover the Symbolic Meaning
Your name is not just the first label you got coming into this world, it is a potent symbol that shapes your identity. Like ancient heroes whose names foretold their destinies, our names influence how we see ourselves and how others see us. Whether consciously or not, our names carry symbolic meanings that resonate through history and culture.
This is why, when you play WoW, you name your character Hercules or Xena. These names carry a symbolic value (strength and bravery) in our collective consciousness and by naming ourselves as such, we claim their powers and abilities.
Now imagine, the world would call you one of these names. Imagine the effect it would have on your life, on all your decisions. Really, imagine it for a moment.
3. The Secret of Your True Name
In ancient myths, Isis learned Ra's true name to gain his power. Similarly, esoteric teachings suggest a person's true name holds deep power. It's a vibration that resonates with your essence, connecting you to spiritual guides and guardians. In The Lesser Key of Solomon, the sorcerer could summon a demon just by knowing their true name. I do not suggest that in any way. Instead, try speaking Michael’s name, invoking his angelic protection and sword in your auric field.
On top of that, there is a true name to your being. And if you are prone to meditating, you will be able to tap into its vibration. But if you did so, I am sure it is not something you can utter with your vocal chords, more than that, it is the mystery encoded within you since the beginning of times.
Your Guardian’s Name
You should never tell your guardian’s name to anyone. First, I have been told this in very deep hypnosis, in which I traveled to the “blue planet”, talking to one of my Pleiadian guides.
If you’re a skeptic, forget about the Pleiades as a real place, imagine it as a symbol in your psyché. The Soul chooses to weave all sorts of stories for us to gather wisdom. All in all, we are all just trying to figure out who we truly are, aren’t we?
Anyway, my guide was very clear on not sharing his name with anyone because I was told that their true names carry the code to their entire internal system. In other words, you can destroy someone just by knowing their name.
PS. I could not even pronounce the name even if I wanted to, I don’t think that sound exists in our world.
4. Exploring Numerology: The Language of Numbers
Pythagoras taught that numbers are the building blocks of the universe. Plato thought that as well. In numerology, each letter in your name corresponds to a number, revealing insights into your personality, strengths, and challenges.
Sidenote: You can study the Pythagorean system or the Chaldean one that focuses more on the vibrational resonance with each letter. I generally follow the latter, however I like to look at both systems.
The trinity of your name:
1. Expression or Destiny Number
Calculation: This number is derived from the full name given at birth.
Meaning: Represents the natural talents, abilities, and potential challenges that a person may encounter in life.
Significance: Provides insight into the overall purpose and direction of one's life journey, reflecting the core essence of who they are and what they are here to accomplish.
2. Soul Urge or Heart's Desire Number
Calculation: This number is derived from the vowels in a person's full birth name.
Meaning: Reflects the inner desires, motivations, and emotional needs of an individual.
Significance: Offers insights into what truly drives and inspires a person at their deepest level, revealing their innermost desires and longings.
3. Personality Number
Calculation: This number is derived from the consonants in a person's full birth name.
Meaning: Represents the outward expression of oneself, including how one is perceived by others and the personality traits that are most prominently displayed.
Significance: Provides insights into the persona that a person presents to the world, including their strengths, weaknesses, and the characteristics that shape their interactions with others.
You will get different results in each system so choose what resonates with you.
Now what can you do with the results?
How to unlock your Soul’s Essence based on your name
I like to picture things, which means I am a doodler. Raise your hand, anyone else?
Visualize your name as a mandala—a sacred geometric pattern where each number represents a facet of your soul's essence. By understanding the vibrations encoded in your name, you can align more deeply with your true purpose and path.
Now let’s look at each of your numbers from the lens it focuses on.
Example:
If your Destiny number is 5, it embodies Mercurian energy, emphasizing communication. This suggests potential roles like hosting, writing, public speaking, mediating, or humor. However, challenges may arise due to a lack of routine, hindering long-term goals unless you harness and transform this energy positively.
To see the difference, let’s place % as your Soul Urge, which then signifies longing for freedom, exploration, versatility, and adventure. The challenge lies in committing to long-term goals amidst Mercury's swift energy.
If 5 appears in your Personality number, you may come across as easy-going, dynamic, versatile, and enthusiastic. You could also seem nervous or fidgety.
When you lay all your three numbers on the table, you will get a better visual of where you are. I also like to combine all three numbers into one singular digit and put it in the core. This is not a common practice but from studying many charts, I see that it indicates the overall core lesson in this life.
If you don’t understand the vibrational and symbological value of each number, I suggest you download my FREE Synchronicity Guide, because the energies are very similar.
Now. It is your turn.
Put down on a piece of paper your name, and ask yourself, what is the symbolic meaning of your name? Why would your Soul choose it? Do you resonate with it? If not, what would you like to change it to? You can then check these three numbers to see if they would fit the mission you have in mind for yourself. If not, keep tweaking until you get the numerological value you desire.
