Unfortunately, a name change to resolve current life conditions rarely is effective. The life conditions still need to be resolved – they don't automatically disappear when a person changes their name.

A name change doesn't get rid of the energy of the previous name. It would be nice if it did, but it doesn't. The energy of every name you've ever strongly identified with always has an effect on you – perhaps a weak effect, perhaps a strong effect, but always at least some effect.

A competent numerologist can help you determine whether or not a new name would serve you and, if yes, what name would be good. There are too many variables to attempt to do so without a long and detailed interview.

An important question is: What type of person do you want to be? With no consideration of your current life situations, but only the characteristics of the person you prefer to be.
