Basic mathematical operation are used in numerology, wherein the
numbers are reduced by simple addition. For example, number 15, for
instance, is reduced to 6 to adding 1 & 5 (i.e. 1 + 5 = 6)
Similarly, 1974 is reduced to 3 ( 1 + 9 + 7 + 4 = 21 and then 21 is
2 + 1 = 3 )
Digit Summing
Practitioners of Numerology / Numerologists generally reduce a
number or a word by a process known as Digit Summing and reach on
conclusions based on the single digit derived. Digit Summing
involves taking the sum of all of the digits in the number and
repeating the method as needed until a single-digit answer is
produced. Several methods of calculation are practiced including
Chaldean, Pythagorean, Hebraic, Helyn Hitchcock's, Phonetic,
Japanese and Indian.
In some cases, the name and birth date of an individual are used to
analyze and define personality and propensities

Calculation in numerology is based on the underlying logic of
addition & subtraction, which is easy to recognize yet very
unknown. Though the calculation methods are very simple, numerology
is based on a complex cosmic network of connected patterns and
cycles. It is by recognizing these patterns & cycles, we predict
events and influences.
