Six

6 Meaning and Symbolism in Numerology

Six is the smallest perfect number, which means that its divisors (1, 2, and 3) sum up to itself (1 + 2 + 3 = 6).

It shares energy with the planet Jupiter, the zodiac sign Virgo, and the birthstones Amethyst and Pearl. Like the asteroid Hygiea, the number six is about helping others and thinking about the community as the whole.

Coffins are often said to be buried ‘6 feet under’ ground.

Geometrically, 6 is associated with the hexagon (and in Astrology, the Sextile Aspect).
