Of all numbers, 18 has the most difficult symbolism to translate. 18 symbolizes materialism striving to destroy the spiritual side of the nature. It often associates the person/entity represented by it with bitter quarrels within the family circle - with wars, social upheaval an revolution. In some cases it indicates making money or achieving position through divisive tactics, through war or other conflicts. It warns of treachery from friends, enemies and the elements. If the compound number of the name is 18 it should be negated immediately by changing the spelling of the name to a more fortunate number. If the birth number is 18, extreme caution and care must be taken to meet the challenges of the 18.
