Thomas A Kabbalistic Synopsis The value of Thomas's name is thirteen, which indicates a desire for change but, in the context of other influences in the name, could also be seen as suggestive of someone whose own beliefs and principles are quite changeable. This can be very positive in that it makes Thomas more open-minded. Thomas will be a successful man, thanks to the influences of the letter Ayin. Despite a doubting nature, Thomas is a warm and genuinely caring guy, as shown by the central M, or Mem, in his name. The Runic Interpretation Thomas has learned, thanks to the Hagalz rune of disruption, how to turn adversity to his advantage. The Othila rune of separation lets him detach from a chaotic situation. Thomas just leaves the room or changes his state of mind until he relaxes and can deal with the dilemma. Teiwaz, the warrior rune, combines nicely with Ansuz, the rune of signals, in this name to make Thomas intuitive, brave, watchful and observant. Mannaz, the rune of self, makes Thomas humble and patient. Sowelu makes him whole. All in all, Thomas has the fortitude to excel in business, politics, or scientific research. Thomas could be a great scientist, and he will derive much satisfaction from his work. The Numerological Interpretation A man with great inner reserves of both energy and knowledge, Thomas does not display his true nature easily. It takes a while to get to know this complex man, as Thomas is by no means particularly self-revealing. Thomas is slow to trust others, but when he does finally offer his friendship, it is sincere and profound. This is a man who cares a great deal about social issues and is not egocentric by nature, although he will support his favorite causes and have definite political opinions and beliefs. Not the most confident about expressing his personal emotions, Thomas needs a partner who is perceptive to his changing moods and very patient with his periodic silences Principal colors: the full spectrum of moderately shaded hues.
