Some weeks later on his arrival, his father died. He made and displayed some skeletal work for his father. Later on, he traveled back to his hometown, Greenland. It took him some time to adapt to his famous culture ways and language. Then in 1918, he passed away due to an influenza pandemic that year.

Lucky

Minik 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.
