Essence Number Importance and Strength
Question:
I'm wondering about Essences- I don't know much about them but, from what I understand they are like a cycle/transit/yearly based on the letters in a name? I'm wanting to mostly know what sorta influence they have and how strong it is, is it that important or influential at all? And what would my Essence be currently? Lastly, do I use my current married name [name removed] or do I stick with my birth name? Btw love all the work you do, Time you continue dedicating to your site and how informative it is. One of the best if not most in-depth websites around. Very grateful for your knowledge and expertise. Thanks in advance!

Thank you for your kind words.
The energy the essence number represents can have an influence on who you perceive yourself to be, your personhood characteristics. The amount of influence can be likened to the personal year number. Both of those, as do other chart postions, have varying influence. How much influence depends on the number and how it relates to other numbers of your numerology chart.
The Yearly Essence Transit article goes into more detail.
Generally, it's importance is less than the major name numbers, the life path number, and multi-year cycles. However, importance is subjective and it can vary depending on life circumstances.
It is good to know what the essence number is and the number upcoming. No action needs to be taken unless such is indicated. The benefit is the awareness. With awareness, it can be taken into consideration when making life-affecting decisions.
The essence transit tool can be used to calculate your transit numbers for pretty much any year and range of years that you wish.
On your birthday this year, your essence number changes from the number 2 to the number 4. Like other cycles, the change is gradual leading up to the date. From 2 to 4 isn't a big change, primarily a focus on cooperation and relationships changing to focus of doing things for future security. Then the year following that is a change to the number 7, lasting for a couple years. You're likely to find yourself as more introspective during those years, more inclined to find answers within and to look for scientific or authority verification for your conclusions and conclusions others bring forth. Then after those two years, back to number 4 for a number of years.
As you can see, the change doesn't have to be yearly. In fact, there are often multiple years with the same essence number.
Calculate the essence transit with your birth name. For completeness, you can calculate it also with your married name and use it as a comparison. The more you know yourself as the married name, the more resonance the married name energy brings into your life.
