Lucky Number 6

People with the lucky number 6 are sentimental. They usually contribute too much to maintain a relationship, so they become very fragile as the relationship ends. To some degree, they are considered as the completists. As well as that, they are responsible and serve people well with all their heart and soul. If their friends are faced with difficulties or have a lot of complaint, they would never hesitate to act as good listeners.

The typical characteristics of people with the lucky number 6 are being pure in the heart and noble in their morality.

 Weak points: They tend to pursue the fairness, but usually superficially instead of essentially. It seems that they are judged uncompetitive. Sadly, they don’t think so, thus gradually they become a little arrogant and hot-headed. In the eyes of people around, they are too rash to figure out a solution. Furthermore, they are nosy, picky and gossipy.
 They always have pious faith in love, so they are born to pursue a real and steady life. Sometimes, people compare them to Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai for the continuous pursuit of love. The touching love story between Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai happened in the ancient China. It is similar to the story of Romeo and Juliet created by William Shakespeare. Both the girl and the guy in the love story end with death for their eternal love.

Due to the ever-lasting seeking for love, people with the lucky number 6 take their relationship very seriously once in a love affair. Actually, they pay a lot to maintain the relationship at the expense of energy, time and money, never considering whether it is worth or not. Due to too much passion, their lovers often feel smothered and finally leave without hesitation. However, in face of the separation, they usually totally end their feelings and then seek a new passion. Therefore, they should realize the importance of personal space in the relationship.
 Chinese people take Six (六) as a fortunate number mainly meaning smooth or well-off. In Chinese “六六大顺” means that everything is going smoothly. In choosing the telephone numbers and the vehicle identification numbers, people often prefer a number including 6. Besides, there is even an interesting tradition about 6 in some areas of China: when a man wants to get married with a girl, he has to present the betrothal gift to the girl’s family. The gift is usually some money: CNY 6,666 or CNY 66,666. People consider that the fortunate money account can help to bless the new couple a harmonious and happy life. When a person comes across his or her 66th birthday, it should be grandly celebrated, as Chinese people hold a generally-accepted opinion that if a person lives to 66 years old, he is doomed to be longevous.

Additionally, 6 has a wide use in China history. For example, Chinese Classical Six Arts refer to Etiquette, Music, Archery, Riding, Writing, and Mathematics. Six Kinfolks refer to father, mother, brother, sister, wife and children.
