About Me

janine slome numerologist at home

Born and based in Johannesburg, South Africa, I am a wife to a handsome Scotsman and mother to a quirky 12-year daughter who is a musical prodigy. My obsession with saving animals from townships and shelters has caused much consternation in my family, but once the kittens and pups get here, everyone falls in love with them and there is great harmony amongst us. I am fortunate to have a little forest in the city which is home to two gorgeous Ridgeback’s and seven cats of varying (mostly fat and spoilt) body types and colours.

But life was not always that easy…I was raised in a home with a frighteningly violent father against the backdrop of a country that was wildly oppressive and deeply unsettling to understand as a young child. I could never comprehend why my experiences were so vastly different from some of the other kids at school who seemed to be balanced and happy. This, together with the fact that I was grappling with forces that I didn’t really understand (my intuition and sensitivity) engendered deep soul searching in my teens and early twenties.

When I discovered Numerology in my late twenties, for the first time ever, I understood the answer to the “why me” question which had haunted me for years – Numerology taught me about my deep karmic contracts and that an abuse of power in past lifetimes is a well-established pattern in my chart. This suggests that I had grappled with the understanding of power in many lifetimes before (and sometimes in this one too), mistreating others and ultimately serving my own ends.

As a child, I was generally conscientious and quiet with a passive stance. At times I was excruciatingly self-conscious and could almost “hear” the other kids talking about me. It was as if the Universe had dropped me into the lowest ranks of confidence and I had to claw my way back to some semblance of identity and personal power. And so, I realised why I had always attracted narcissists and bullies. I understood the karmic contract between my father and I (and possibly my country) and why we had chosen this very difficult journey together.


When I was able to step out of the drama and understand circumstances from a karmic context, there was deep validation for my experiences and suffering. I understood… and felt liberated to take my life forward with so much more acceptance, which ultimately brought forgiveness and thanksgiving for the opportunities I had to overcome this karmic constraint. Today I am blessed with wisdom, love and definitely more peace!


But the lessons are never forgotten and express itself in a deep calling for service. I am eternally grateful for the experiences I have had because it has blessed me with a honest empathic ability and a way to access a deeper understanding of the karmic subconscious. I now see similar patterning in others and feel so honoured to be able to hold a space… to explore their karma with them, with a view to understanding life’s challenges and the choices we make, ultimately to validate with improved understanding and spiritual grace.
