2

A name needs very few vowels to reach 2. In Jack Hart the only vowels are two As, one per name, and 1 plus 1 settles it at once. No single vowel has the value 2, since A is 1, E is 5, I is 9, O is 6 and U is 3, so this number always comes from a sum.

Cheasley in 1916 treats 2 as reflective and peacemaking, a collector of experience rather than a maker of it. Walton in 1914 describes its strength as working more inwardly than outwardly, which suits a measure built on the vowels. Westcott in 1911 notes that the Dyad was set against the Monad as its opposite.

Modern popular numerology hears a private wish for harmony and close company in a Soul Urge of 2. Balliett's 1905 view that people of this number take their ideals from other minds points the same way, in her older vocabulary. She also calls them intuitive, an adjective the modern books have kept.
