Avery in Utero at approximately 4 months
Avery just after birth
Avery and the proud father, Erick
I write this in honor of my grand daughter, Avery Elosie Mullen, born on March 3, 2008 at 4:32 PM EST at Sibley Hosipital in Washington, DC to Kelly and Erick. Avery weighed 7 pounds 7 ounces and was 21 inches long.
She is an amazingly beautiful black haired baby girl with the most beautiful skin I have ever seen on a baby. Of course I am bias but really doesn’t she have amazing skin! Kelly braved the rigors of giving birth naturally with no drugs or pain killers and the birth was a success. I am happy that both she and baby Avery are now home safe and sound. Continuing with the birth story, Erick was there with her, coaching her and supporting her in the birth process. I received text messages by phone as Kelly went to the hospital and then gave birth. I don’t think I will ever erase those messages.
I never really thought much about being a grandmother. It was really not that important to me. I love my two children deeply but whether or not they had children was really up to them. I also have to admit that grandmother means “old” to me and being labelled old is not one of my favorite things! But seeing the first picture of Avery changed all that. It was love at first site. As one of my friends shared with me, it’s like falling in love all over again and I couldn’t agree more. She has stolen my heart from afar and I can’t wait to meet her and hold her and sing to her and tell her what a special person she is and how much I love her. I am now offically Nonna Sussanah! That’s grand mother in italian since Kelly and Erick called me from Italy to tell me they were expectinga baby.
I’ve put this information together for Avery to see when she is a little older. It’s interesting to look at now for those of use who believe that there is more to this world than what we sense with our five sensory physical system. Beleiveing that Avery choose to come here at this place and time with this special earth touching event sends waves of loving energy throughout the unvierse. I am honored and look forward to sharing with her the experience of growing up on Planet Earth. So the following is astrology, name and numerlogy information that I have gleened from friends and the internet and of course my own intuitive powers. I conclude this document with a listing of famous people and events of March 3.
Avery is a Pisces with a Leo ascendant. Picses are the lovers of the astological wheel and Avery is destined to be a very compassionate human. With the Leo ascendant, she will also outwardly express leadership qualities. For chart readers, you can see that this is going to be one complicated and masterful female of the human species.
The following is an email I received from my dear friend Vicki, an ensouled astrologer. I sent her the brith information before Avery had a name.
Susan, Just some quick initial impressions
I believe each soul comes in for a special focus and there will be someone (s) in their life to support them. This is a very special being (your granddaughter) how much will YOU be able to be a part of her life.??? This girl definitely needs a name!!!!!!!!!
Totally fabulous chart---Makes me want to consider living another 40 years just to see what she does with it all
Very intuitive and sensitive
lot of emphasis on relationships, her personal self & image, health and the body
Excellent possibility of the intuitive genius (or the sensitive eccentric) Thank goodness for all that earthy practical grounding in the 5th house (She is going to be practical about having a very very good time in life) ----I just Love the whole pisces Sun //Capricorn Moon-----combination!!!!!
I also love the charts of what could be the so called "new age--for runner" children The brains & awareness of people are transforming & changing; especially the children--
The viel will be very very thin for her between the seen & unseen
Her biggest opportunity or challenge will be in owning this and huge empowered forces in her life
love vicki
As to her name, Avery means sage, counselor, and ruler of elves while Eloise means wise, broad and wide, and Battle Maiden. Again, her name stresses wisdom and leadership and the veil between the seen and unseen worlds will be very thin. She will have a deep love of nature as well as elves and fairies. I must have intuited this since I bought her the fairy sculpture that serves as a night light!
Here is an interpretation of Avery’s name based on numerlogy
Avery’s Soul Urge - The Song of Avery’s Soul - A Deeper Look Into What Motivates Avery
The Soul Urge number has also been called Heart's Desire and Spiritual Urge. It is our secret, innermost longing. Our dream, our motivation, the fuel that energizes our journey. The Soul Urge number reveals what we secretly strive to be or accomplish. Some have said that this number tells us what we have been in previous lifetimes, the accumulated growth of our soul.
You are the essence of individuality and independence. You are intense and convicted when it comes to defending your beliefs, as you never doubt your inner strength and ability to handle any challenge. Many are inspired by your confidence, while others may feel irritated and view it as arrogance. You are likely to attract people and situations that allow you to express this part of yourself or else they will mirror these traits back to you.
Avery’s Personality - The Impression Avery will Make upon the World
The Personality number describes the way we appear to the outside world, the first impression people have of us. We may not even be aware of how we are perceived by others because we are so often focused on our inner world, and many times the inner does not match the outer. Personality gives us a peek at some hidden talents we have. The talents that we use to get along in the world and in some instances, protect us from it. It is likened to a bag of tools (jewels) that we carry with us along the way.
You've got charisma, and a following to prove it. You live by your belief that change is progress, and so there tends to be a quick turn over in your relationships, jobs and even educational interests. You are the proverbial, " jack of all trades-master of none.", and this gives you a multi-dimensionality that befriends you to people of every walk of life. You are colorful in your dress and possess a magnetic sensuality.
Avery’s Expression - Character, Talents and Identity – Avery’s Unique Quality of Consciousness
The Expression number shows us who we truly are, what we came into this life already knowing. This is where we feel most comfortable and how we automatically act. We attract people and situations to us that require our Expression so that they can further evolve. In this way we play the role of teacher. Naturally we are attracted to occupations that we resonate to, so the Expression number can be a strong factor in our choice of a career as well. Our Expression is the vehicle, with all its virtues and vices, that drives us along the path of our Destiny. It is the essence of our identity.
Family and home life are your main interests. You know how to nurture and accept anyone, therefore, many are drawn to you including those that others call, "strays". You have an eye for anything beautiful and your home is sure to reflect this, no matter what your budget is. You are proud of all your possessions and especially of the talents of your family members. Your generous, creative nature makes you the ideal host or guest at a party.
This is a numerolgy reading based on Avery’s birth date.
Avery’s Inner or Soul's Urge: This is spiritual and emotional expression more than physical. It is your heart-felt desires, your incentive, how you look at life. Here are your areas of personal satisfaction.
Number: 1
Usually not very emotional, you are in this life to take action. You want to lead and direct. You are independent at heart and desire to reach your goals by your own efforts and intelligence. You have a strong creative force with many original and interesting ideas. There is much inner strength available to you. Rarely do you shirk responsibilities. You are proud of your abilities and seek opportunities to display your strength and usefulness. Others will respect and help you, like a true leader deserves, so long as you acknowledge and validate the interests and desires of others as well as your own. Be kind and generous, and you can be a recognized leader. You can display conceit and intolerance of people who are considered inferior -- boastful, egotistical, critical, impatient of trifles -- especially when you feel impeded. When you are headstrong, impulsive, or highly willful, you may appear contrary, bossy, dominating, or egotistical. You tend to be impatient with those who are resistant to change. You can be reticent, and can lack self-confidence. Sometimes you won't take a stand for fear of hurting others. Yet, something continually keeps urging you forward. You want your home, spouse, and family to be a credit to you. Overall, you are loyal in friendship, fair in business, a safe leader, and work diligently. You are capable of great accomplishment.
Avery’s Personality: This is physical expression more than spiritual or emotional; your outer self, the way you express when meeting others. It may or may not be the real you.
Number: 5
You are seen as curious, sensual, witty, carefree, capricious, and restless. Monotony does not survive around you. You are adept with words and can entertain new ideas with relish, making you an enjoyable person to be around. You tend to be fashion conscious. You may go to extremes in outerwear (and underwear), just to be daring and watch people's reactions or to be in the limelight. Realize your personality can be stylishly expressed, without overdoing it, and still fit the occasion.
Avery’s Quiescent Self: Stripping away all outside influences, aspirations, ambitions, "shoulds", and "shouldn'ts" -- this is you when you are alone; just you and your dreams..
Number: 5
You travel to all countries of the world and experience the cultures they have to offer. You are fluent in all native languages and thrill with understanding many and varied points of view. Ties and responsibilities are not present. You live for adventure and constant new experience. Your thoughts and pleasure are not predictable, even to yourself, but always relate to learning or experiencing new things.
Avery’s Destiny or Ultimate Goal: This is your desired lifetime accomplishment. It is a key to a useful and happy life, and to feeling fulfillment during your latter days.
Number: 6
You are a humanitarian, like a "cosmic" Mother or Father. People look to you for ideals of love and companionship, charity, truth, justice, and harmony and beauty of surroundings. Your ability to help individuals and humankind is definite and sincere, and you are called upon to do so. Your personal happiness depends on how much good you can do. You find pleasure in rendering assistance to others.
You are happiest with a position of trust and responsibility which you can regulate, harmonize, and adjust to optimum. You are concerned with the care of the old, the training of the young, and the improvement of the entire community. Selfless service pays rich dividends for you.
You are a natural counselor and teacher.
Avery’sLife's Path: Here are clues to what fate has in store for you. It indicates the type of encounters, events, and opportunities you are likely to experience along your physical life path.
Number: 7
Your path is along the lines of research, investigation and mental analysis. This includes meditation and introspection. Your opportunities will often be brought to you without having to go get them. The manifestation of those opportunities tend to have something in common with quiet places away from bustle and confusion.
You work well with theories and fundamentals, seeking wisdom and hidden truths. When you use your own ideas and judgment, dedication, and scientific attitude, along with your intuition, your decisions will enable you to reach your goals.
You can be alone without feeling lonely. You respect intelligence and are continuously accumulating knowledge for yourself. You have an intense reasoning capacity. Others will perceive you as having more warmth and less aloofness when you balance your knowledge and its pursuit with compassion and human sensitivity. That combination inspires wisdom.
