Abel
Abel is a name with Biblical roots. Abel is known in the Holy Bible for being the second child born to Adam and Eve, who were the first man and woman. Cain, who was Abel's older brother, was known for his strength and his skill as a farmer, whilst Abel was a simple shepherd. Both men were asked to sacrifice something that they had created, in honour of God. Cain was enraged to discover that God preferred Abel's sacrifice, so murdered his brother in cold blood. For his crime, he was forced to spend eternity wandering. Their story is told in the book of Genisis. There was also a St Abel, who was a saint of the Syrian church and is the patron saint of the blind and the lame.

Lucky
Abel lucky number is 2.
Within numerology, the 2 vibration assumes the role of the mediator, creating harmony by bringing together dissonant forces through compassion, empathy, and kindness. 2 is linked to psychic abilities and intuition, and if this number appears as a Life Path or Destiny Number, the individual will be astute to subtle energy shifts and emotional nuances. Because 2 is so sensitive, it is very conflict-averse, and can end up feeling under-appreciated or unacknowledged. 2 must avoid seeking external validation and, instead, realize that perfect equilibrium needed already exists within.
