Numerology: Today is 14th April. Whether you turn the pages of history or look at the movement of planets in the sky, this date has been no less than a ‘game changer’ for the world. On one hand, India today has the constitution maker Dr. B.R. Ambedkar’s birth anniversary, on the other hand, this date changed the direction of history by becoming a witness to science, education and even the world’s biggest maritime accident (Titanic).

But have you ever wondered why such great personalities were born on the 14th? From the point of view of Numerology, today is a very mysterious and powerful day. Let us know the truth of April 14, which you probably don’t know.

Why are people born on April 14th special?

According to numerology, the root number of 14th is 5 (1+4=5). The lord of number 5 is ‘Mercury’, who is considered the god of intelligence, logic and communication.

Radix number 5 and personality of Dr. Ambedkar

Dr. B.R. Ambedkar’s personality is the biggest proof of the power of this number. The planet Mercury gave him that ‘eloquence’ and ‘reasoning power’ which broke the age-old social chains.

• Intellectual Depth: People with number 5 go to the bottom of any subject. Babasaheb’s mastery of economics and law was the result of this inquisitive nature.
• Drivers of change: Number 5 is not a symbol of ‘stability’ but of ‘revolution’. The change that Dr. Ambedkar brought in the society reflects the rebellious and reformist energy of this issue.

Those great personalities of April 14, who changed the world

Not only Babasaheb, this date has given the world such gems which changed the face of science and humanity:

1. Christian Huygens: Scientist who revealed the secrets of the universe
Dutch scientist Huygens, born on 14 April 1629, told us that there are rings around the planet Saturn. If today we use a pendulum clock or understand the ‘wave theory’ of light, the credit for it goes to this great personality. His intelligence also had the same brilliance of the number 5, which is expert in solving complex puzzles.

2. Anne Sullivan: The teacher who gave ‘light’ to ‘darkness’
On this day in 1866, Anne Sullivan was born. She taught students like Helen Keller, who could neither see nor hear. Anne proved that communication (which is the quality of Mercury) can happen not only through words, but also through touch and sensation.

3. Peter Debye: Nobel Laureate in Chemistry
Peter Debye, born in 1884, gave the world new ways to understand the structure of molecules. His contribution in the field of science is still the foundation stone for students.

When April 14 shook the world

This date is remembered not only for births, but also for some events which left a deep mark on the history of humanity.

1. Titanic disaster (April 14, 1912)
The most painful maritime tragedy in history began on the night of 14 April. The ‘unsinkable’ ship Titanic collided with an iceberg at 11:40 pm. This incident taught the world that technology is always inferior to nature.

2. Attack on Abraham Lincoln (April 14, 1865)
One of America’s most beloved presidents, Abraham Lincoln, was shot at Ford’s Theater in Washington on this day. This one bullet changed the direction of not only America but world politics.

April 14- Confluence of knowledge, struggle and change
The date of April 14 teaches us that whether it is the struggle of Dr. Ambedkar or the discovery of Christian Huygens, a combination of courage and intelligence is necessary to change the world. This energy of Radix 5 inspires us to continuously move forward and break stereotypes.
