Next, read their number and the suggestions below... and then... go shopping!

Number One 

 

You can surprise number Ones with something unusual, innovative or inspiring.  They love originality and can appreciate new ideas or theories.  Ones love a good suspense or spy story, bit it must not be predictable as they'll see through flimsy plots.  Gifts which are unique and thoughtful will appeal to them.  Quality is preferred and appreciated by this number.  A funny card won't go astray, as they have a sense of humour too.  Be sure to compliment them and give them a lot of attention, as Ones love to feel important.

 

 

A romantic and beautiful location for an outing or meal is ideal to treat a Two.  As long as there is privacy and it is not too loud, either aurally or visually, you are pretty safe in your selection.  Twos appreciate detail and subtlety, as they have a refined taste and are fussy.  Gaudy and clashing colours will not appeal to the Two, so don't go there unless you're doing it to get a reaction.  Symmetry is important too.  Find out what their current interests are in general conversation and purchase along those lines. 

 

 

You can have fun with a Three… something creative, lively and a little ‘left of centre', will be enjoyed.  They love to be actively involved in the moment, so an outing to the theatre, a concert, a movie or a more daring physical adventure will surprise them pleasantly.  Gifts suitable for a Three are those on the more dramatic end of the spectrum.  Novelty gifts and comedic cards will give them a hoot!  They love to be surprised, so spring something on them whilst they are unawares.

 

 

Whatever you do, be on time and make sure that you are organized.  If you have put some thought and planning into a gift for Number Four, they will appreciate your effort.  Practical gifts are ideal.  Cards need to be sincere, as do you.  Avoid frivolity or overly-decorative ‘busy' designs.  Check items for flaws, as Fours can find faults in a nano -second.  Classy, stylish patterns and precision are important qualities to consider in your choice of gift, location or card.

 

 

Similar to the Three, the number Five loves spontaneity and surprises.  If it is unpredictable, they will enjoy it even more.  Avoid buying the same thing for them one year after another… change it around.  Be original and interesting in your presentation of their gift.  Something fun and uplifting is ideal.  Thought provoking gifts or puzzles are suitable.  They are thinkers and need variety.  Surprise them with an unusual location for an outing or meal.

 

 

Sixes are sensual beings, so gifts which are kinaesthetically pleasing, beautiful and of high quality will suffice.  Music, fine wine, romantic dinners, home-wares, beauty products and body treatments will also be suitable gift ideas.  A day spa or night away in a resort including a massage, dimmed lights, elegant surroundings or nice furnishings are all things that the Number Six will adore.  Cards should be more personally oriented and can be sentimental or even a bit soppy.

 

 

Sevens enjoy gifts which have your personal touch and which show some degree of intimacy and knowledge of their preferences.  Plan occasions where there is flexibility so that your Seven can make a selection of locations and times.  If you don't want to give a way the surprise, make sure you can check up on their preferred eating spots and dietary requirements.  Work around them, rather than being pushy or their heart won't be in it.  It is not necessarily the monetary value, but the personal value that is important. 

 

 

You can really go crazy with the size of the gift you give to an Eight.  Make it big and impressive!  If it shouts "money", "ego" and "prestige", they will love it even more.  Anything that furthers their current ambitions is a good choice.  If you take them out, make it all about them.  Give them your undivided attention.  Anything to do with good fortune is ideal for an Eight.  On the flipside, Eights can be highly spiritual, so something along those lines may also work well. 

 

 

Nines enjoy revolutionary ideas, concepts and cutting-edge inventions.  Technology also may be an area of interest.  A gift that keeps on giving through a charitable cause is ideal for a Nine.  Whatever you do, make sure that your gift is not shabby or badly constructed.  Many Nines will find a spelling error in a jiffy.  They can be critical and will also pull an argument apart with surgical precision.  Quality literature is suitable.  Choose something with culture and which is intellectually stimulating.

 

 

Elevens enjoy reading and learning.  They are keen to improve and may be strongly materialistic.  Gifts with can appeal to their interest in self-improvement are ideal.  They also take a strong interest in mind-power, as well as mystery novels, spy stories, unusual facts and the survival of the human spirit.  They love cleanliness and beauty.  Take them somewhere classy and aesthetically pleasing. Fine wine, good conversation, a belly laugh and a hidden element of surprise will keep them smiling.

 

 

Twenty-twos are versatile and multi-talented.  They love to be creatively involved in something and can be autonomous.  Mysticism, culture and something a little exotic will be enjoyed by this number.  Atmosphere is an essential consideration.  They are usually strong-minded, but can be flexible when necessary.  Plan ahead for outings and let them know when but not where and always how to dress for the occasion. Whatever you choose will be appreciated if it is useful.  Avoid frivolous gifts, but you can give them a laugh with a funny card if you like.  Do make sure that you colour coordinate the gift/s and card.

 

Number Thirty-three

 

This number loves to be entertained and can also be good at entertaining others.  They are usually happy to be part of a group setting or busy environment, as long as something interesting is going on.  Music and harmony are important factors, so make sure that the setting suits their musical tastes.  Good quality, natural foods or a good variety on the menu are important.  Thirty-threes love a good view, so see if you can arrange that too.  Gifts can be fun, intriguing, useful, spiritual or inspiring.  Ensure that gifts are stylishly presented.
