NUMEROLOGY

 

Numerology is a science, which is considered to be the most ancient but rather advanced science in the world. Numbers are everywhere you look. Numerology is the study of the mysterious and hidden meaning of numbers and their relevance to our society and existence.  Numerology is the language of numbers and their symbolic significance. Each number has its own vibration and its own vibratory influence.

Numerology is the study of the occult meanings of numbers and their influence on human life. It is a complex arithmetic system that reveals your character, personality, and experience through the reasonable progression of numbers.

Numerology provides a complete personality lifestyle profile when we apply the meaning of individual numbers to our birth name and birth date.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Your name and your birth date are the data base from which a numerologist is able to describe you, sight unseen. Number values are assigned to the letters in your name. By adding these -- with the numbers in your birth date -- in a multitude of combinations, a numerologist establishes your key numbers. He then interprets the meaning of these key numbers, which results in a complete description of your personal characteristics.

The numbers of our name describe the things we were born knowing. The numbers of our birth date describe the things we need to learn. As you examine your Numerology Reading, you'll find a great deal of insight about yourself.

Some people are skeptical that a series of numbers associated with letters can foretell how you should live your life and what your future will be.

Numerology is the language of numbers and their symbolic significance. Numerology uses numbers to describe who a person is and what the destiny holds for a native. It is the study of numbers and each number has its own vibration and its own vibratory influence. The basic numbers are 1 - 9. Each number has a hidden meaning and an interesting importance. Just as the right medical attention can cure a patient, similarly right astrological guidance can help solve many a problem. Although numerology has gained most of its popularity within recent years, it is one of the oldest of the occult sciences. In numerology nothing happens by chance. When you come into this world, it is with a unique set of vibrations and purposes. The name you are given at your birth contains some of these vibrations as does your birth date.

Numerology is considered as the easiest way to know about the person and predict the future, It is most authentic and accurate science. Astrology blends and adds a dimension to Numerology by comparing a number with an astrological sign and this additional knowledge assists the numerologist in illustrating and explaining the significance and importance of integrating and intermingling other proven sciences into the translation and power of Numerology.

The "energy" represented by these numbers can have a profound influence on your personality, health, and well being. Numerology is one way of tapping into their power.

The best use of Numerology, and any divination tool, is one in which you use it as a life enhancing tool that can help you to unlock your potential.

Each number, which is given in the chart, have certain energies attached to them. How you act on those energies depends on you. If you are generally conscious of your activities, and think before you act then you may be tapping into the "Positive/Mature" side of the energy. If you generally act in a rash manner then you may be tapping into the "negative" side of the energies.

Aim

The purpose of numerology is not to foretell the future, but to provide you with keys to explore and discover your own potentials and destinies. In numerology your name and birth date represent a path chosen by your higher, spiritual self. On these paths will be certain opportunities and special lessons designed for your own growth. Everyone has a universal or karmic pattern. The inner self knows its needs and chooses ways to fulfill them. Numerology is a way to communicate with your inner self.

From earliest times humans have watched the heavens and recorded the dates of their births. These dates are used to calculate one's destiny. According to numerology, only a name and number rule a person. The native will encounter opportunities and difficulties in life according to the influence of numbers in his/her life. In numerology the birth date represents a strong force in your life since it is one vibration that never changes. You bring in new conditions each time you change your name, but the birth path remains the same. Your birth date numbers tell you the types of people you are likely to meet and form relationships with. You can find the most harmonious profession for you.

Numerology has been attacked for going against the laws and teachings of God. In fact, just the reverse is true. The Bible, the Talmud, the Koran, even the Egyptian Book of the Dead, have alluded to numbers in ways that require interpretation by people of wisdom. Numerology refers to any of many systems, traditions or beliefs in a mystical or esoteric relationship between numbers and physical objects or living things.

Numerology and numerological divination were popular among early mathematicians, such as Pythagoras, but are no longer considered part of mathematics and are regarded as pseudo mathematics by most scientists. This is similar to the historical development of astronomy out of astrology, and chemistry from alchemy.

But the real attractiveness of numerology, over say palm or crystal reading or other non-numerical personality analysis and prophecy, is that numbers give the quackery an aura of both scientific and mystical authoritativeness, especially if complex statistical analysis is involved.

Certainly, the Pythagoreans were a cult with esoteric notions about the universe and numbers, including the notion of the harmony of the spheres. No doubt they found something mystical about the relations of sides of triangles, which we have come to know as the Pythagorean theorem. But there is no evidence that Pythagoras thought he could analyze his disciples' personalities by assigning numbers to the letters of their names and their birth dates.

For one thing, he would have realized the unreasonableness of such a notion. Different languages have different alphabets; different cultures use different calendars. It is unreasonable enough to think the universe is arranged according to numerical transcriptions of names, but to think that there are several equivalent transcriptions to accommodate cultural differences stretches the limits of credibility almost to infinity. Even if the universe were so unreasonably designed, how would we ever know which "reading" of a person's numbers is the "correct" one? Does the concept of "correct reading" even have meaning in this so-called discipline?

It is one thing to recognize that many things in the universe can be explained by reduction to mathematical formulae. The formulae can be tested and demonstrated to be accurate or not. It is quite another to claim that somehow the name you are given at birth was preordained to coincide with the date of your birth and to be coordinated with certain numbers so that certain special people (the numerologists!) could calculate from this data who you are, what you will be, what you need and feel, and what you should do. It is a long, long way from Plato's admonition to those entering his Academy that they should know geometry, or from Galileo's assertion that Nature is written in the language of mathematics, to the notion that numbers related to my name are a key to who I am pre-destined to be. It is a misrepresentation of history to cite mathematical mystics or scientists who have been enamored of mathematics, as fellow travelers. In any case, even if Pythagoras, Plato, Kepler, Galileo, and Einstein were all numerologists it would not make the theory of numerology one iota more plausible.

Working of Numerology

All the numerologist needs from you is your “full name and birth date”. Number values are assigned to the letters in your name. The numerologist will then add those in a multitude of combinations with your birth date, to establish your key numbers.
These key numbers are then being interpreted, which leads to a complete description of your personal characteristics.
Numerology is the study of numbers, and the occult manner in which they reflect certain aptitudes and character tendencies, as an integral part of the cosmic plan. You need the birth date of an individual and the complete name as inputs to unlock all of the secrets that the numbers hold. There are nine numbers used in constructing numerology charts. These numbers are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. Each alphabetical letter has been assigned a numeric value that provides a related cosmic vibration.
Thus larger numbers that occur from adding the numbers in the complete birth date or from the values assigned to each name are reduced by adding the digits together until the sum achieved is one of the core numbers.  The sum of the numbers in your birth date and the sum of value derived from the letters in the name provide an interrelation of vibrations. These numbers show a great deal about character, purpose in life, what motivates, and where talents may lie. These numbers had made numerology which specializes in names (baby names, domain names, individual names, business names, etc...).
Finding out more about yourself will enable you to develop in ways, which may have seemed impossible before. Numerology will help you make the most out of your strengths, as well as deal better with your weaknesses.
The accuracy of Numerology Science is amazing in its depth of detail and comparable to an Astrological Reading in its overall completeness.

Theory
It's been said that numbers are the closest thing we have to a universal language. They are what they are, and as a rule, aren't subjective or emotional in nature, which is why they are also the language of science.
Numbers by themselves are fairly interesting, but when you use them to build a system to help you understand yourself and the universe around you, you have a subject that is fascinating and has held our attention for thousands of years.
In a nutshell, numerology is based on the belief that the name you were given at birth and the day, month and year you were born influence who you are and what potentials lie before you over the course of your lifetime.
Pythagoras (who is most commonly - and mistakenly - credited as the "Father of Numerology") believed that the entire universe is composed of mathematical patterns, and that all things can be expressed in numbers that correspond to universal vibrations.
This is another approach to what quantum physicists have been saying for quite some time now, and that is that when you get right down to the most basic level, the universe is made up of fluctuations of energy - vibrations, in other words. And as we know from our high school science classes, vibrations can be expressed mathematically in terms of frequency and amplitude. Which is just another way of saying that the universe can be expressed as a (very large) series of numbers.
Abracadabra

Abracadabra is a less frequently used form of numerological interpretation. It is based on the subject's name, and uses a series of triangles to arrive at numerical values that provide information about character and events.

Different Kinds of Numerology
The three major forms of numerology in use today are the Kabbalah, the Chaldean and the Pythagorean. I use aspects of all three when I prepare and interpret charts.


Kabbalah (Hebrew Alphabet)
The Kabbalah ( which means knowledge that comes through the mind and soul rather than through a flesh and blood teacher) originated in Hebrew mysticism, and interprets only the meaning of the name. The Kabbalah was developed for the Hebrew alphabet, and therefore has only 22 vibrations ranging from 1 to 400. It was adapted for the Greek alphabet, then further adapted for the Roman alphabet.
New Kabbalah

A New Kabbalah has also been developed for use with the modern Roman alphabet. It, too, is based on name, and relies on Pythagorean methods to determine time periods. The New Kabbalah is concerned more with events than character.

The two most popular methods of numerology are Pythagorean and Chaldean.

Though each is a different system, with distinct differences, they both are in agreement on certain things.

Chaldean numerology was originally developed in Ancient Babylon (now Iraq), and combines Kabalistic name interpretation with aspects of astrology. The 9 is considered holy and therefore is kept apart from other vibrations, except when it results as the sum of vibrations (e.g., from an individual's name). In Chaldean numerology, compound numbers always used. Single digits represent the outer aspects of a person, while double digits reveal inner influences.

Chaldean System

Letters converted using nos. 1 to 8. It is sometimes called Mystic Numerology. Harder to use than Pythagorean system. It gives an occult or mystical meaning. It uses name most known and shows the behind unseen forces. Its conversion is out of sequence. It is not known who originally taught it, but it predates the Pythagorean system. In this method Birthday affects personality and health tendencies given at birth. The Single and Compound number are both important.

The Pythagorean method was developed by Pythagoras, a Greek mathematician and metaphysician who lived during the 6th century BCE. He was most widely known for his proposition that the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
Pythagoras was as interested in metaphysics and spiritual development as he was in math, so it's no wonder he joined the two disciplines. He studied at the Hermetic (after Hermes, messenger of the gods) Wisdom Schools of the Egyptian holy city of Heliopolis (later named Alexandria) and incorporated many of the same teaching techniques with his own students in Greece.
The right triangle was Pythagoras' "Eureka" (which means "I found it"). The right triangle can also be used to symbolize the world of an individual and serves as the original basis for the numerological interpretation of the life pattern of an individual. Like the Chaldean method, Pythagorean numerology analyzes both name and date of birth, and the interaction between the two. The basic vibrations are 1 through 9, although the 11 (K) and 22 (V) are not reduced to a single digit because these are master vibrations.

Pythagorean System

Letters converted using nos. 1 to 9 It is Sometimes called Modern Numerology, More popular because easier to use. It gives a more materialistic meaning and uses full name given at birth. Its conversion is done in sequence and all compound numbers reduce to single numbers.

Pythagoras - Father of Western Numerology

Pythagoras was born on the island of Samos, in the 6th century BC. Little is known about the early part of his life. He traveled extensively throughout Southern Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East and probably lived and studied for some time in Egypt. He later established a school on Kroton, in Southern Italy, where he taught Mathematics, Astronomy, and Music.

As a teacher, he was respected and feared. Many people considered him dangerous. In an attempt to safeguard his school, his students were sworn to secrecy and were not allowed to write anything down.

He is most often associated with the theorem in his name. Certainly, he is held in the highest regard as one of the preeminent mathematicians of all time. However, it was his passion for learning, for truth, and for the discovery of grace and harmony in all aspects of life that sets him apart from other philosophers

It is believed that Pythagoras lived to be almost a hundred years old. He died when his school was attacked and burned to the ground.

The Western form of Numerology

The Pythagorean system, is among the most enduring and popular of all self-help methods ever created. The Chinese, Japanese, Greek, Hebrews, Egyptians, Phoenicians, early Christians, Mayans, and Incas, all employed some form of numerology to gain a deeper understanding of themselves and the universe.

Pythagorean numerology was organized by Greek philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras, who combined the mathematical disciplines of the Arabic, Druid, Phoenician, Egyptian, and Essene sciences. Since then, it has continued to evolve. The Pythagorean system is today the most commonly used system of numerology in the West.

Application of Numerology

Numerology can help you better understand yourself, your strengths and weaknesses, what you need to work on and what you have to work with, where you are coming from and the heights you can yet reach. It's all there in your cosmic name and in your date of birth. The name initially given at birth is called the cosmic name. It reflects your goals, talents, lessons and debts, in essence, your reasons for being here. Changing your name can enhance or detract from your ability to fulfill your mission in life, but it does not change these factors.

The day of the month on which you were born - regardless of which month or year it is - is an important numerological indicator, providing an excellent "thumbnail sketch" of standout traits. It strongly influences the most productive period of your life, and is one of the four key numbers in a chart. (The other three are the Soul Urge, Expression and the Life Path).

The Soul Urge is found by adding together all the vibrations of the vowels. It reveals the longings of the soul, the goals and motivations in life. The sum of the vibrations of the consonants is the Quiet Self. It indicates the unique talents that help you reach your goals and, because it operates on a more subconscious level, is expressed as if describing a dream. The total of all of the vibrations in the name is the Expression. This is the face you show the world, the traits that others see most readily. You may find that you vibrate to one or more of these numbers, i.e., feel a particular draw to them without consciously knowing why.

The vibrations that do not appear at all in your cosmic name indicate Karmic Lessons, the areas in which you are here to learn, qualities that have not been fully developed in other lives or were developed but then lost (usually by neglect). It should note that numerological charting is predicated on reincarnation and a belief that there is some degree of choice operating at the soul level when re-entering this dimension. Our names reflect those choices in terms of what we want to undertake in a particular lifetime. in the chart (such as Soul Urge, Expression, Life Path or Day of Birth). This, of course, is no accident, since we are not casual tourists on this plane. We come here with a purpose and equip ourselves with the tools needed to achieve it.

Theoretically, there can be as many as 8 Karmic Lessons (if a person were given a name consisting of a repetition of a single vibration). In practice, most people have between one and three Karmic Lessons. More than three lessons is a difficult and burdensome undertaking; when more than three lessons have been chosen, it is best to focus on lessons that are supported by other chart aspects because these lessons are more likely to be mastered. It is also increasingly common to encounter persons with all of the basic vibrations present. This can be an indicator of an Old Soul, one with many experiences in this dimension, who seeks to grow by re mastering and refining ALL the lessons. It may also be found in concert with an especially heavy karmic debt represented by a Malefic Number, although Malefic Numbers can occur with or without Karmic Lessons.

The term Malefic comes from the Latin word for bad, which gives malefic numbers an onerous sound. What they actually indicate is an abuse in another life that is to be balanced in this life. They are significant when found in any of the key positions, i.e., Soul Urge, Expression, Life Path and, to a somewhat lesser degree, Day of Birth. The Malefic numbers are 13, 14, 16 and 19. When a Malefic Number is found in the Soul Urge, it will interfere with the individual's personal life, upsetting his or her dreams and hopes. Malefic Numbers in the Expression interfere with the outer life, i.e., business and career. When found on the Life Path, Malefic Numbers take their toll in all aspects of life.

Your name is only half of your story. Your date of birth - regardless of what time or where you were born - fleshes out the whole person. The digits of the date of birth reveal additional character traits, but are primarily reflective of the types of events that can be expected during specific periods of your life. The Life Path is calculated by adding together the digits of the date of birth, then reducing them by again adding the sum together until the result is a number between 1 and 9. This gives an overall "tone" for the course of your life. Also calculated from the date of birth are shorter periods, cycles and pinnacles. These add further definition to the Life Path and allow you to better understand the kinds of experiences that you will face at various times. The special challenges you face are derived from your date of birth, which is also the source of personal year, month and day information. Taken together, these serve as "life almanacs" to help you prepare, plan and make the most of your time in this plane of experience.

History
Historically, we run into the same problem that we encounter when we try to examine the origins of palmistry, and that is that there doesn't appear to be any solid proof as to when numerology was first developed.
It's generally accepted that the ancient cultures of China, India and Egypt were familiar with numerology long before the Greeks began using it, but most books still credit Pythagoras as being the father of numerology.
You probably remember Pythagoras from your high school geometry class - you know, for any right-angled triangle, the square of the long side is equal to the sum of the square of the short sides.
To make a long story short, the teachings of Pythagoras were adopted by Plato and studied by early Christian scholars, including such notables as St. Augustine. This in turn led to the expansion of numerology during the Renaissance, and it continues to be studied and practiced today.
Historians believe that modern numerology is an integration of the teachings from Ancient Babylonia, Pythagoras and his followers, (6th century B.C. Greece) Astrological philosophy from Hellenistic Alexandria, early Christian mysticism, the occultism of the early Gnostics and the Hebrew system of the Kabbalah. The Indian Vedas, the Chinese "Circle of the Dead”, and the Egyptian "Book of the Master of the Secret House", (Ritual of the Dead) are records giving strong evidence that Numerology dates back thousands of years.

Pythagoras and other philosophers of the time believed that because mathematical concepts were more "practical" (easier to regulate and classify) than physical ones, they had greater actuality. This is an idea in harmony with philosophical pragmatism and a choice for permanent concepts over changeable physicality.

St. Augustine of Hippo (A.D. 354 - 430) wrote " Numbers are the Universal language offered by the deity to humans as confirmation of the truth." Similar to Pythagoras, he too believed that everything had numerical relationships and it was up to the mind to seek and investigate the secrets of these relationships or have them revealed by divine grace.

In 325 A.D., following the First Council of Nicaea, departures from the beliefs of the state Church were classified as civil violations within the Roman Empire. Numerology had not found favor with the Christian authority of the day. It was assigned to the field of unapproved beliefs along with astrology and other forms of divination and "magic." Through this religious purging, the spiritual significance assigned to the heretofore "sacred" numbers began to disappear. In spite of this suppression there were still many devout believers, who kept the secret knowledge locked away.

An example of the influence of numerology in English literature is Sir Thomas Browne's 1658 Discourse The Garden of Cyrus. In it the author illustrates that the number five and related Quincunx pattern throughout art, nature and mysticism. The Discourse is a late example of the influence of Pythagorean thought in English philosophy.

Most of the earliest teachings were transmitted orally, only to the initiated, because the information was considered very powerful and sacred. Pythagoras, a philosopher and mathematician, lived and taught in Southern Greece in the sixth century B.C.

Although little can be confirmed about Pythagoras directly, his teachings spawned a philosophical and religious movement, called Pythagorism that spread throughout the Roman Empire. You were taught his mathematical theories in high school geometry. Pythagoras' belief that reality is mathematical -- that order is created out of chaos through numbers -- is the principle on which numerology is founded. Numerologists believe that everything, including abstract concepts, can be converted into numbers and that those numbers have specific meanings.

By finding the number value of any word or name, you can discover its hidden meaning. The teachings of Pythagoras were taken up by Plato and reinforced by the writings of the Jewish Cabala.

Continued interest by early Christian scholars, such as St. Augustine, led to the widespread use of numerology during the Renaissance. At that time, numerology was accepted by everyone from the most learned academics to the least educated laymen.

Numerology, along with astrology, Tarot, the I Ching, and other occult arts, has experienced a revival in recent years. For their readings, modern numerologists have adopted the original Pythagorean system. It is a simple system that assigns a number value (from one to nine) to every letter of the alphabet: A is 1, B is 2, and so on.

In standard addition, you add 6+9=15 for the correct answer. In Numerology, this is not enough: it uses a further method of addition known as the "Fadic" system, or "natural addition".

This simply means you keep adding two or more numbers together until you arrive at one single digit. Taking our example of 6+9, 6 and 9 adds up to 15, but in Numerology you add 1+5, for a final answer of 6. You must then know what each number from 1 to 9 represents.

Reading numbers

Numerologists apply definitions to numbers. They use these definitions in conjunction with each other, to find the meaning of what ever they may be describing. Upon digit summing, they will combine the definitions within an equation to find their interaction, which in turn defines the base. Such as: the equation 32/5 would be described as the base definition of 5 being created through the interaction of numbers 3 and 2. (This example, in simple definition, would be: action being created by union and communication).

Number definitions

Definitions of the various digits vary widely among practitioners. Common examples include:


0.

Everything and nothing. The All.

1.

Individual. Aggressor. Yang.

2.

Balance. Union. Receptive. Yin.

3.

Communication/interaction. Neutrality.

4.

Creation.

5.

Action.

6.

Reaction/flux. Responsibility.

7.

Thought/consciousness.

8.

Power/sacrifice.

9.

Completion.

10.

Rebirth.

Digit summing

Numerologists often reduce a number or word by a process known as digit summing, then reach conclusions based on the single digit that is produced.

Digit summing, as the name implies, involves taking the sum of all of the digits in a number, and repeating the process as necessary until a single-digit answer is produced. For a word, the values corresponding to each letter's place in the alphabet (e.g., A=1, B=2, through Z=26) are summed.

Examples

3,489 -> 3 + 4 + 8 + 9 = 24 -> 2 + 4 = 6.
Hello -> 8 + 5 + 12 + 12 + 15 = 52 -> 5 + 2 = 7.

A quicker way to arrive at a single-digit "summation" is simply to take the value modulo 9, substituting a possible result of 0 with 9 itself.

The resulting numbers are usually assigned definitions to provide the desired insight. Definitions for the meaning of each digit vary among cultures and systems. Frequently, 0 is said to correspond to the infinite or to nothingness; 1 to the individual; and 2 to union. Beyond that, definitions vary widely.

Different methods of calculation exist, including Chaldean, Pythagorean, Hebraic, Helyn Hitchcock's method, Phonetic, Japanese and Indian.

In some cases, in a type of numerological divination, the name and birth date of an individual will be used to analyze and define personality and propensities.

Numerology and The Numbers Mean

The primary vibrations are 1 through 9, plus master vibrations of 11 and 22. Vibrations above 9 can be reduced to primary by adding the digits together. For example, 10, 19 and 28 are "1's" because 1 + 0 = 1, 1 + 9 = 10 = 1 + 0 = 1, and 2 + 8 = 10 = 1 + 0 = 1.

The reduced vibrations are by nature general. The basic vibrations give information that can be helpful and is summarized by key words associated with each. You will notice that the characteristics associated with each vibration are both positive and negative, which illustrates my point about the general nature of reduced vibrations.

1          Creativity, independence, originality, ego, self.     
2          Empathy, cooperation, consideration, over-sensitivity, co-dependence.      
3          Artistic expression, sociability, friendliness, superficiality, wastefulness.    

4          Practicality, application, loyalty, rigidity, repression.        
5          Freedom, adaptability, travel, inconsistency, abuse of senses.     
6          Love, responsibility, understanding, meddling, jealousy.   
7          Spirituality, mental analysis, wisdom, fault finding, suppression.   
8          Executive ability, management, power, materiality, unscrupulousness.      
9          Artistic genius, humanitarianism, romance, emotionalism, dissipation.      
11         Intuition, idealism, invention, insensitivity, fanaticism.       
22         Practical idealism, material mastery, get-rich-quick schemes, viciousness.

The 11 (K) and 22 (V) are master vibrations, and therefore are not reduced when doing chart calculations. When these vibrations are active in an individual's life they can be reduced by the way that person lives them, and in such instances, they take on the negative aspects of the reduced vibration. Thus an individual can turn the imagination and inspiration of the 11 into the leaning, whining co-dependence of the negative 2, or the material mastery and world vision of the 22 into the stingy drudgery of the negative 4.

Master Numbers in numerology

There are 3 double-digit numbers that, while they are rooted in the single-digit numbers, require special emphasis and attention. These are 11, 22, and 33.

They are called Master numbers because they possess more potential than other numbers. They are highly charged, difficult to handle, and require time, maturity, and great effort to integrate into one's personality.

The 11 is the most intuitive of all numbers. It represents illumination; a channel to the subconscious; insight without rational thought; and sensitivity, nervous energy, shyness, and impracticality. It is a dreamer. The 11 has all the aspects of the 2, enhanced and charged with charisma, leadership, and inspiration. It is a number with inborn duality, which creates dynamism, inner conflict, and other catalyses with its mere presence. It is a number that, when not focused on some goal beyond itself, can be turned inward to create fears and phobias. The 11 walks the edge between greatness and self-destruction. Its potential for growth, stability, and personal power lies in its acceptance of intuitive understanding, and of spiritual truths. For the 11, such peace is not found so much in logic, but in faith. It is the psychic's number.

The 22 is the most powerful of all numbers. It is often called the Master Builder. The 22 can turn the most ambitious of dreams into reality. It is potentially the most successful of all numbers. It has many of the inspirational insights of the 11, combined with the practicality and methodical nature of the 4. It is unlimited, yet disciplined. It sees the archetype, and brings it down to earth in some material form. It has big ideas, great plans, idealism, leadership, and enormous self-confidence. If not practical, the 22s waste their potential. Like the 11, the 22 can easily shrink from its own ambition, causing difficult interior pressures. Both the 11 and the 22 experience the pressure-cooker effect very strongly, particularly at an early age. It must work toward the realization of goals that are larger than personal ambition. The 22 serves the world in a practical way.

The 33 is the most influential of all numbers. It is the Master Teacher. The 33 combines the 11 and the 22 and brings their potential to another level. When expressed to the fullest, the 33 lacks all personal ambition, and instead focuses its considerable abilities toward the spiritual uplifting of mankind. What makes the 33 especially impressive is the high level of sincere devotion. This is shown in its determination to seek understanding and wisdom before preaching to others. The 33 in full force is extremely rare.

The number 33 only matters when found among the core numbers- The Life Path, Heart's Desire, Expression, Personality, Maturity number, or as an Essence cycle or Pinnacle cycle. In all other cases the 33 should be reduced to a 6.

The fact that the 33 is extra-ordinary demanding and rare can be seen symbolically in the methods of calculation.

For example, a 33 Life Path can happen only when each of the 3 units of the birth date (month/year/day) add to 11. Or when the year adds to 22 (in the 20th century there are only 7 years that add to 22- 1939, 48, 57, 66, 75, 84, and 93) and the month and day of birth combined total is 11. And finally, when the birth day is 22 and the month and year of birth total 11.

Another way to look at the Master numbers

The Master numbers 11, 22, and 33 represent a triangle. A triangle of Enlightenment.

11            

22

33

The number 11 represents the vision.
The number 22 combines vision with action.
The number 33 offers guidance to the world.

Numerology and the Double-Digit Numbers

Every one of the cardinal numbers can be based on several different compound numbers. The 7, for instance, can be based on 16, 25, 34, 43, 52, 61, or 70. (It cannot be based on 79 or 88 except indirectly, because 79 and 88 are 16.) When a 7 is based on 25, it is slightly different from a 7 based on 34 or 61. For this reason, the double-digit numbers is included in the chart. 7 is written based on 25 in this manner: 25/7; and a 7 based on 34 like this: 34/7.

 A double-digit number's characteristics are dominated by that of the single digit it represents. First and foremost, it is that cardinal number.

The double-digit number highlights certain aspects, and diminishes others, but it never eliminates any aspect completely. You may want to study the double-digit numbers in your personal chart to see if you can gain additional insight or clarity.

For example, a 7 based on 25 is not as withdrawn as a 7 based on a 16. A 7 based on 34 is more creative that the 7 based on a 25.

The already considerable leadership ability of a 1 is enhanced in the 10. As a rule, numbers that are dividable by 10 strengthen the characteristics of the single-digit number across the board. A 10 is a high octave 1, a 40 is a high octave 4, and a 70 is a high octave 7.

Below is a short description of double-digit numbers 10 through 99. To find your double-digit number, take the total of the letters in your chart before you reduce them to a single digit.

Karmic Debt Numbers in numerology

Numerology is based on the ancient idea that each of us is a spiritual being, or a soul, who incarnates on the earth many times in order to further evolve toward higher states of awareness.

During our long evolutionary path of many incarnations, we have accumulated a wealth of wisdom, and have made many good choices that benefit us in future lifetimes. We have also made mistakes, and have sometimes abused the gifts we have been given. To rectify such errors, we may take on an additional burden in order to learn a particular lesson that we failed to learn in previous lifetimes. In numerology, this burden is called a Karmic Debt.

The numbers that indicate a Karmic Debt are 13, 14, 16, and 19. These double-digit numbers take on great significance when they are found in the core numbers (the most important numbers including the Life Path, Expression, Heart's Desire (or Soul Urge), Personality, and Birth Day), and in the various cycles during the course of your lifetime. Each has its own unique characteristics, and its own particular difficulties.

When you are calculating your chart - especially you core numbers and different cycles - you may encounter the numbers 1, 4, 5, or 7. These single-digit numbers can be arrived at by adding a variety of two-digit numbers. The number 1 can be arrived at, for example, by combining the double-digit numbers of 10 (1 + 0 = 1), 19, 28, 37, 46 - all of which total to 10, and then to 1. However, only in the case of 19 is a Karmic Debt indicated. Karmic Debts are also associated with the numbers 4, 5, and 7. These numbers can be preceded by an array of two-digit numbers, but when the 4 is preceded by a 13; or when the 5 is preceded by a 14; or the 7 by a 16; a Karmic Debt is also read as part of the single-digit interpretation.

A Karmic Debt can be found in different places in the chart. As a result of totals based on your date of birth, for instance, or calculations based on the letters of your name. This means that two people with a 16 Karmic Debt that is located in different places in the chart, express it very differently. Thus, this is a brief lay out the general characteristics of the Karmic Debt, and some broad guidelines for dealing with it.

Description of the four Karmic Debt numbers 13, 14, 16, 19

13

Those with the 13 Karmic Debt will work very hard to accomplish any task. Obstacles stand in their way, and must be overcome time and again. One may often feel burdened and frustrated by the seeming futility of one's efforts there may be a desire to surrender to the difficulties and simply give up on the goal, believing it was impossible to attain in the first place. Some with the 13 Karmic Debt fall to laziness and negativity. But efforts are not futile, and success is well within reach. One simply must work hard, and persevere in order to reach the goal. Many highly successful people in all walk of life, including business, art, and athletics, have a 13 Karmic Debt.

The key to succeeding wit the 13 is focus. Very often, people with the 13 Karmic Debt do not concentrate or direct their energies in one specific direction, or on a single task, but scatter their energies over many projects and jobs, none of which amount to very much. A temptation wit the 13 is to take shortcuts for quick success. Too often, that easy success doesn't come, causing regret and the desire to give up. The result is a poor self-image, and the belief that one is incapable of amounting to very much.

In order to focus, you must maintain order in your life. Order is essential to success. You must maintain a schedule, keep appointments, and follow through. Keep your environment neat and under control, and never procrastinate. If you sustain a steady and consistent effort, you will realize much reward.

14

The 14 Karmic Debt arises from previous lifetimes during which human freedom has been abused. Those with a 14 Karmic Debt are forced to adapt to ever-changing circumstances and unexpected occurrences. There is an acute danger of falling victim to abuse of drugs, alcohol, and overindulgence in sensual pleasures, such as food and sex. You must put the reins on yourself. Modesty in all affairs is crucial to overcoming this Karmic Debt.

Also important is the need to maintain order in life, and to establish one's own emotional stability. One  must also be willing to adapt to the unexpected occurrences of life, all the while maintaining focus on one’s goals and dreams. Flexibility and adaptability are at the very core of this struggle.
Orderliness in one's immediate environment is crucial to maintaining clarity and focus. Mental and emotional stability must be attained in order to avoid being thrown about by the changing fortunes in the external environment.

But the key to the 14 Karmic Debt is commitment. Life will resemble a roller coaster ride, but it will always travel in the right direction if one's heart is set on what is true and good. Set a high goal, maintain order wherever possible in life, avoid excessive sensory indulgence, and maintain faith. Above all, do not give up on dreams and goals.

Those with the 14 Karmic Debt will experience life to the fullest, and as long as they maintain a high dream, they will achieve success and great spiritual development.

16

The 16 Karmic Debt - wherever it shows up on the chart - means destruction of the old and birth of the new. The 16 is about the fall of the ego, and all that it has built for itself. It is a watershed, a cleansing. All that has been constructed, and all that serves to separate the person from the source of life is destroyed. Through the 16, reunion with the great spirit is accomplished.

This can be a painful process, because it usually comes after much ego inflation. This results in a struggle between the ego and the divine will. Life presents challenges to your grand plans, which can be resented and struggled against. It is a lost battle, and you will likely feel humbled in the face of the collapse that follows. This humility is the key to later success, however, because you will learn to follow the intimations of a higher reality. In the destruction of the old, a spiritual rebirth takes place with an entirely new awareness. This rebirth affects every area of your life. It is a life much the better for the fall.

Those with the 16 Karmic Debt must be careful of egotism. Very often, those with the 16 use their highly intuitive and refined intellect to look down upon others, and view the rest of the world as inferior. This causes acute alienation and loneliness. In addition, it invites retribution, for the egotist is humbled more harshly than any other.  When the 16 is in one of the core numbers, this process of destruction and rebirth is a continual cycle that actually serves to bring you into higher consciousness and closer union with the source of life.

The 16 Karmic Debt can be a path of progress and great spiritual growth if it is looked at properly. One develops great faith by placing one's life in the hands of God. Through such faith, gratitude and peace are firmly established.

19

The person with the 19 Karmic Debt will learn independence and the proper use of power. They will be forced to stand up for them self, and often be left to stand alone. Difficulties will be faced and overcome through personal struggle.

One of the central lessons for people with the 19 Karmic Debt is that  they  stubbornly resist help. Much of independence is self-imposed; simply don't want to listen to others, or to accept the help or advice of others.

The 19 Karmic Debt can become a self-imposed prison if they do not open up to the reality of interdependence, and the mutual need for love.

The most important lesson for the 19 Karmic Debt is: While you seek to stand on own feet, still a human being, deeply connected with others and in need of the support, assistance, and human understanding that all people need. Those with the 19 Karmic Debt will learn the hard way that "no man is an island," and that we are, indeed, "all bits of the main!”

The Basics of Numerology

The basic understanding of what each number embraces within its vibration in the different parts of an individual numerology chart.

All numbers have three possible expressions

  • Balanced

  • Under-balanced

  • Over-balanced

When we are out of balance, we may experience the polarities within the number (the under-balance or over-balance qualities). This occurs until we learn how to balance the qualities of the number within ourselves. The definitions we give below are the balanced expressions. Use your intuition to imagine what qualities the number would take on if it were under-balanced or over-balanced.

The Habit Challenge

 A special trait of an individual is known as "Habit Challenge". Some Numerologists refer to this aspect as the "Point of Security". Both names describe the nature of this aspect quite well. Although it is not exactly a modifier of Core Elements, the Habit Challenge does influence the flow of energy available to them.
Have you ever felt a habit or a repeated pattern that was hard to identify? No matter how aware of the pattern you became, it continued to occur over and over? Your Habit Challenge may shed some light on this subject. The Habit Challenge is just what is sounds like--a habit we feel challenged by which is usually negative. Because all numbers have a polarity as well as a balanced state, the Habit Challenge is usually experienced as an extreme (under-balanced or over-balanced) rather than a balanced vibration. Our challenge is to learn how to balance its influence. This trait then becomes positive and empowering.
Often stress, confusion, and insecurity are energies that create the reactions found in the Habit Challenge. When a person becomes aware of the reactions, they can choose to bring the extremes into a nurturing and balanced state. Like all vibrations that exist within an individual chart, synergy can enhance the individual parts.

Habit Challenge calculation

Determining a Habit Challenge is quite simple. It is the total letters in a name added together. In other words, rather than adding the value of each letter, we add the total number of letters together and reduce them to one single digit.
For ease, we created possible descriptions for each number. You may want to add to our descriptions. As creative beings, there are many possible Habit Challenge expressions.

Possible Habit Challenge Responses

One can use their intuition to find, how a given number would express as under-balanced or over-balanced. The following descriptions apply to each of the numbers in context, including the Core Elements.
1  Habit Challenge - Leadership

  • Under-balanced - insecure, dependent, passive.

  • Over-balanced - bossy, opinionated, dominating.

When acting in an under-balanced way, the 1 may respond in a procrastinating manner, be indecisive, and act in vacillating ways. The 1's natural assertive nature could become over-balanced and result in a response that is bossy, impatient, stubborn, impulsive, and over-attached to ones own beliefs.
2  Habit Challenge - Peacemaking

  • Under-balanced - indecisive, dependent, uncertain.

  • Over-balanced - oversensitive, disapproving, unsupportive.

As an under-balanced response, it may be hard to maintain a sense of identity because of a desire to please. The 2 as an over-balanced response may become fussy over little things and caught up in details.
3  Habit Challenge - Expression

  • Under-balanced - unfocused, vacillating, anxious.

  • Over-balanced - exaggerating, gossipy, lacking in concentration.

As an under-balanced habit it can exaggerate, become self indulgent, and be without direction. A 3 is creative and expressive so when it becomes an over-balanced response it can lead to scattered energies, starting many tasks, and finding it hard to focus.
4  Habit Challenge - Form

  • Under-balanced - disorganized, narrow, uncertain.

  • Over-balanced - headstrong, limited, antagonistic.

A 4, as an under-balanced response can expect a lot of others and fail to commit itself. When over-balanced, it can become too serious and careful, often creating opposition. In addition, it could become so attached to methods that it forgets to see the big picture, getting caught up in details.
5  Habit Challenge - Freedom

  • Under-balanced - non progressive, cautious, doubtful.

  • Over-balanced - erratic, impulsive, careless.

The 5 could respond in an under-balanced way by escaping reality through indulgent means. With an over-balance response there could be a possibility of changing directions too often before results are evident. This instability could effect relationships and career.
6  Habit Challenge - Responsibility

  • Under-balanced - distant, self seeking, unorganized.

  • Over-balanced - discontent, overemotional, over-responsible.

When the 6 is under-balanced, its response may be to avoid responsibility involving others, perhaps failing to keep appointments or obligations. The 6 Habit Challenge can become very attached to its home, family, and environment. When it becomes over-balanced, it may live through others or possibly desire to give unsolicited advice.
7  Habit Challenge - Individuality

  • Under-balanced - disregarded, superficial, undeveloped.

  • Over-balanced - resentful, hypercritical, secretive.

If responding in an under-balanced expression, it can act in over-analytical and critical ways and can even become cut off from its own deep feelings. An over-balanced response can become very detached, shut people out, and hold onto resentments.
8  Habit Challenge - Manifestation

  • Under-balanced - powerless, impoverished, undisciplined.

  • Over-balanced - tactless, pushy, possessive.

When under-balanced, material success and motivation may be lacking. When an 8 becomes over-balanced, it may take its effective work characteristics into friendships and home life. In addition, intimidation and manipulation may become a way of attaining results as well as trying to do everything and forgetting to delegate.


9  Habit Challenge - Compassion

  • Under-balanced - passionless, oppressive, aloof.

  • Over-balanced - unaccountable, impractical, dreamer.

If expressing in an under-balanced way, it can be somewhat cold or detached, feeling that it is being broad-minded. In addition, it can become a jack-of-all-trades and master of none. The 9 can become moody and filled with ups and downs. Over-balance can be expressed as too dreamy and impractical or too generous for its own good.
11/2  Habit Challenge - Illumination

  • Under-balanced - aimless, fearful of psychic abilities, submissive.

  • Over-balanced - extreme nervousness, misguided, obsessed.

On Master Numbers - Both 11/2 and 22/4 can be read as either their master vibration of their digited down vibration. Master vibrations represent a much higher frequency. When a 11/2 or 22/4 cannot hold the higher frequency, they will revert to either a 2 or a 4 respectively. So, also refer to the under-balanced and over-balanced aspects of the 2 and the 4 when analyzing the 11/2 and 22/4.
22/4  Habit Challenge - Master Builder

  • Under-balanced - lethargic, spiritless, inactive.

  • Over-balanced - extreme tension, overwhelmed, controlling.

The purpose of pointing out the under-balanced and over-balanced traits that may occur from a Habit Challenge, is to help identify possible patterns. Once identified, an individual can become conscious and work towards balancing the negative traits into a positive and creative response rather than a reactive one. We have found that once the Habit Challenge is embraced, it can them be balanced and brought into an energy which can be an impetus for success.
When working with the Habit Challenge, also pay attention to the other Core Element numbers. The Habit Challenge may be easier to balance if it has harmonious energies to help it along. If other Core Elements are Discordant, the Habit Challenge may be a little more difficult to direct into a positive and balanced resource.

The Alphabet in Relationship to Numbers

A Numerologist sees numbers as vibrational expressions. Numbers are also associated with letters. Both numbers and letters describe certain vibrational patterns. These patterns are forces that manifest within a person's life and their environment.
By examining a persons name and birth date an interpretation can be made. The individual's "snowflake pattern" exists in relationship to the ever-present vibrations or expressions of the universe. These constant expressions are wave like cycles and come full circle in a sequence of nine degrees. Like a lotus blossom illustrates, the unfoldment of human consciousness is accomplished within this sequence.
Each letter is 'personified' (Definition: A rhetorical figure of speech in which inanimate objects or abstractions are endowed with human qualities) to help you better imagine the characteristics of each letter.

A  (1)

This letter holds the vibration of a leader and is the most aggressive and self-starting of the alphabet. 'A' is very adventurous and pioneering and has much independence. It is very self-reliant. Liking to initiate, they often must learn through experience. 'A' is also a catalyst activating other vibrations around them. They have to learn how to be less self-absorbed sometimes and are
