The Numerology of Stan Lee

Stanley Martin Lieber (born December 28, 1922) was famously known as Stan Lee. He was the editor-in-chief of Marvel Comics from 1960 to 1972 when he led the Marvel Revolution (along with Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko), helping to introduce the Fantastic Four, Ant-Man, the Hulk, Spider-man, Thor, Iron Man, Wasp, Dr. Strange, the X-Men, and Daredevil (between 1961 and 1964) to comic book readers. He became even more famously known for his humorous cameos in the Marvel Cinematic Universe blockbuster movies.

This article will explore his numerology to see how he expresses his numbers.

Life Path Number

The Life Path is the total of a person’s birthday (mm/dd/yyyy). Stan’s birthday was December 28, 1922, so 12/28/1922, which totals 1962, which reduces to 18, which reduces to a 9. If the numbers are added sequentially, the total is 28, which reduces to a 9.

An individual that has life path number nine is generous and compassionate. Therefore, they have passion and energy to help the wider world and take on the largest human problems. Their personality develops through their efforts to see the flaws in humanity and heal them.

As the people of the people, they embrace charity, altruism, and healing. So, they become successful through networking the disparate parts of society into a whole. Since they choose to lift those who are downtrodden, they overcome challenges thrown in their way by peaceful protest, patience, and forgiveness.

Lee was a big personality with more than his fair share of foibles, but he truly believed in contributing to a better world and certainly tried to do that through the stories he wrote and edited for Marvel Comics. One of his most important contribution was a letters page at the end of the comics of the 60s and 70s where he actively engaged with the readership, sharing their thoughts and his about comics and the world he lived in.

The number 6, for service and teaching, and the number 4, for building something that lasts and being one of the members of society who “holds the community together” are excellent numbers for Stan Lee. He certainly served his audience, trying to teach valuable lessons through storytelling, and was part of the foundation of the Marvel Comics superheroes creation process. Those heroes are now known world-wide, largely because of Stan Lee’s tireless devotion and promotion.

Active Number

You lead into life with your first name, which is why its numerical value is your Active Number. Some people use their given first name, some take on a nickname given to them by a family member or peer, and some people choose a nickname or even an alternative name.

The “true” active number is the given birth name. Even if you legally change your first name, the core Active Number is the birth name given to you by your parents. A legally changed name is more powerful than a nickname. And any name used to identify a person in the world is a variation of an Active Number. In Stanley’s case his active number is 24, which reduces to 6, the number for the Teacher.

An individual that has an Active Number 6 wants to help and heal. Therefore, they understand and enjoy service, can teach what they learn, and tend to be highly sympathetic or empathic. A child with a 6 first name will make sure no other children are left out of a game and want to help with chores. First name 6 individuals spot needs and work to fill them.

The number for “Stan” is 9. An individual that has an Active Number 9 is often wise beyond their years, even their later years. Therefore, they tend to be patient, consider actions carefully, and see the “big picture”. A child with a 9 first name is an excellent observer and comfortable letting others lead and act until invited to participate. First name 9 people act with compassion and soak up wisdom.

Something very interesting to note is the fact that Stanley is the same number, 6, as Stanley Martin Leiber and Stan is the same number as his Life Path Number
