Margaret

A name of English origins, the meaning of Margaret is taken from the Hebrew word 'margaron', which means 'pearl'. However, this name has a number of different roots; from the French name Marguerite, from the Latin name Margarita, from the Ancient Greek name μαργαρίτης (or Margarítēs) and from the Persian name Margārīta. All of these variants have the same meaning; 'a pearl'. From its Hebrew version, Margaron first became Marguerite in Old French and was later popularised as Margaret in England and the United States. There have been a number of famous figures with the name, like the American actress Margaret Qualley. She is known for her roles in 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood', 'The Nice Guys', 'IQ', and the Netflix adaptation of the popular Japanese manga and anime 'Death Note'. Another is the Candian poet and novelist Margaret Atwood, who became famous with her novels 'The Handmaid's Tale', 'The Testaments' and 'Alias Grace'. She has won a number of awards for her writing, such as a Booker Award, a Giller Prize and the Arthur C. Clark Award.

Lucky

Margaret 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.
