What is Numerology
Considered as pseudo-mathematics by most modern scientists,
numerology is often associated with occult, alongside astrology and
similar divinatory arts. Numerology is a traditional systems used to
analyze relationships between physical objects / living things /
words etc. and numbers. In simple words, it is how numbers relate to
human personality and time cycles. This study of the symbolism of
numbers is used to determine a person's personality, character,
strengths and weaknesses, talents, obstacles, personal visible &
hidden needs, emotional reactions etc. Several factors are
considered in numerological readings of an individual, including
date of birth, birth time, place of birth, parents, spouse, children
etc. Apart from these elements, numbers that have a presence in the
individual's life like number of house, shop, factory, plot etc.,
also carry their individual value. Thus making this science vast and
complicated.
The Origin & History of Numerology
Numbers were first explored by ancient social, religious &
spiritual gurus It is believed that the Indian continent is the
first one to discover the number system. Numerology was popular
among early mathematicians like Pythagoras and others. With more
detailed study & developments it is no longer regarded
mathematics rather pseudo-mathematics by most modern scientists In
present scenario, numerology is used by those who, in the view of
some observers, place excess faith in numerical patterns, even if
those people don't practice traditional numerology
Modern numerology contains aspects of a variety of ancient cultures
and teachers, including The Indian Vedas, astrological philosophy
from Hellenistic Alexandria, early Christian mysticism, the Hebrew
system, the Chinese "Circle of the Dead", the Egyptian "Book
of the Master of the Secret House" and more
How Numerology Works
Calculating the numerological predictions are not as easy as assumed
by a common person who has a little knowledge of numbers and values
Everything in the universe vibrates at its own particular frequency
By finding the vibration rate of any object, you can establish the
qualities and energies associated with it By applying the principles
of numerology-and using only the name and birth date as the basic
data-you can determine the major frequencies of different people A
numerological analysis of the calculated frequencies provides
significant information on these people's personalities and
character.
Methods in Numerology
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

- Communication/interaction Neutrality
- Creation
- Action Restlessness
- Reaction/flux Responsibility
- Thought/consciousness
- Power/sacrifice

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.
