A Kabbalistic Synopsis

Bill is a solitary figure who eschews company of any kind. While for Scorpio Bills it may be the cast that their isolation stents from misanthropy, it's not usually a dislike of other people that generally prompts this solitude. For the average Bill, it is the result of a desire for complete self-suffiency. Also, there is a tendency toward agoraphobia suggested by Bill's name. The relationship of the B (Beth) and the L (Lamed) may point to a personality who feels driven back into the home by the outside world. Bill adds up to forty-two, which indicates a love of the sea, and it may well be that Bill makes his home there, possibly by joining the navy or even living on a barge or houseboat. On the whole Bill is happy with his unusual lifestyle, but every now and then he has a crisis in confidence. It is not that Bill ever doubts the suitability of his chosen lifestyle for him as an individual; rather, it is that he wonders about the other possibilities he has not tried.

The Runic Interpretation

Bill puts on his earphones and he's in his own world. Bill is a live-and-let-live kind of fellow. Bill's love of music comes from the double Laguz energy of flow. As a child he exhibits a keen intelligence that is somewhat stifled by intense shyness, which is the legacy of the Isa energy of standstill. The arts are an appropriate vehicle to foster Bill's musical ability and encourage his self-confidence. The benefits inherent in the Berkana rune ensure growth and maturation to deep levels for Bill. He can look forward to recognition and accolades in his adult life.

The Numerological Interpretation

Helpful and caring, Bill is a man who is always present when others need him. He can be a very generous person who gives freely of himself and his resources. But do not think that he is free from material preoccupations-not at all! The numbers in Bill's name indicate a person who is very much involved with the acquisition of money and the social rewards that come with financial security. Yet this is not a selfish man. The name Bill denotes an open hand and an open heart.
