Marilyn Monroe & the Mystique of the Number 7
“I’ve never fooled anyone. I’ve let people fool themselves. They didn’t bother to find out who and what I was. Instead, they would invent a character for me. I wouldn’t argue with them. They obviously loved somebody I wasn’t.”~ Marilyn Monroe
A Numerological perspective of an Iconic Beauty – Marilyn Monroe And the Mystique of the Number 7
by Greer Jonas
Marilyn Monroe (born 6/1/1926) had a destiny of a 7 Born: 6/1/1926 6+1+1+9+2+6 = 25/7 7 Destiny Marilyn Monroe’s destiny (or life purpose) might be surprising to some. It is the introverted, spiritual, and unique nonconformist, the 7. The journey of seven (like Johnny Depp and Princess Diana) is the journey to find oneself and is often a path of feeling misunderstood and like an outsider. Sevens are rebels and often perfectionists, but walk a different path than most. In Marilyn’s case, she sought to stand out and be loved, yet probably felt extremely alone.
Norma Jeane transforms into Marilyn Monroe
Marilyn’s story illustrates a shy, troubled, and pretty girl who rose to become one of the world’s most famous sex symbols and beloved icon.
She was born June 1, 1926, as Norma Jeane Mortenson and became Norma Jeane Baker soon after. Marilyn’s difficult childhood was abusive and fatherless. She spent most of her youth in foster homes after her mother was institutionalized.
There are many influences to a path someone takes in life, including environmental, genetic, emotional, and spiritual. Let’s take a look at the numerological influences that have created the Marilyn Monroe persona.
The Numbers of Norma Jeane Baker
Let’s take a look at the Norma Jeane’s numerological chart.
The Pythagoras chart above illustrates each letter’s numerical equivalence
The 6/1/7 has an introverted and spiritual (7) expression. The six (6) in the soul wants to be loved and to have love. The one (1) values leadership and to be first, but the 6 and 7 cares too much what other’s think.
How does shy, insecure Norma Jeane rise to stardom? Numerology shows that the name “Marilyn Monroe” begins the transformation of the simple “Norma” into a powerful, charismatic showstopper.
Inventing Marilyn Monroe and changing her identity
Once discovered in a war factory, Norma Jeane decides to change her image and invent a character that might not necessarily be her true essence, but certainly will get attention! She dyes her hair platinum and becomes Marilyn Monroe.

Like Marilyn, she still has a seven, but it is in her Soul’s essence. With her platinum new identity, she has a unique mystique. The three value (or personality number) is all about creative expression (be it singing or acting) and the one expression is the leader.
Now with the new look and vibrant name, Marilyn has the tools (and perhaps the mask) to address the world she is so afraid of. The struggle of the two identities was illustrated as she lived a life of many marriages and drugs to get by. Always looking for love, perhaps never truly finding it.
Both Marilyn and Monroe illustrate the spark that captivated the Audience.
Each name (Marilyn and Monroe) has the dynamic spark of the number 8
Marilyn. We see from the chart above that Marilyn holds the energy combo of 8 (power and charisma), creativity (3), and the master number 11. In mastery, the 11 is the ability to inspire and profoundly attract others through her very expression.
Monroe. The combo of the 8/9/8 is all about charisma and power. Marilyn Monroe was certainly captivating and still is long after her death. Perhaps if Marilyn sought out spirituality instead of finding solace through drugs and alcohol, she would have found peace. We will never know.
