Divination
Just think of what a single day in your life would be like if you did not use any numbers at all. You would not be able to use your cell phone, banks would close, schools, hospitals and airports, would all cease to operate. Basically, life as we know it would revert to the dark ages.
The science of numbers (numerology) originated in Greek and Hebrew cultures. Although the significance of numbers dates back to prehistoric times when mankind was first able to sense numbers using pictures or by comparing a four‐legged animal to four animal skins when trading. Simply put, by Ellin Dodge in Numerology Has Your Number (1988), “Numerology is a mystical arithmetic system that reveals character, personality, and experience through the sensible progressions of numbers.” There is a powerful link between letters and numbers. Divination with numbers was first devised by the ancient Egyptians who assigned “magic” numbers to certain letters, using them to foretell the future. Mathematicians think the Egyptians must have had a special understanding of numbers and mathematics in order to build the pyramids. It seems quite natural that they also used numbers for divination purposes. Numerology was “modernized” in the sixth century B.C. by Pythagoras, a Greek born in 580 B.C. He is considered by most to be the father of modern numerology. Even though it has developed and evolved in current time, there are still varying forms of numerology practiced today.
There have been a very large number of books published on the topic, according to The Prediction Book of Divination (1984) by Jo Logan & Lindsay Hodson, “This is considered to be one of the easiest occult subjects to learn and master.”
Have you ever noticed that certain numbers appear repeatedly throughout your life, in addresses, phone numbers, license plates and so on. It is a well‐known theory that everyone has a lucky number and an unlucky number. Think back to the happiest events in your life, and think about the dates. Does one particular number appear again and again? Then recall traumatic or unpleasant events in your life, and go through the same process.
Generally, odd numbers have been considered luckier and more powerful than even ones. Odd numbers are thought to be masculine, even numbers are feminine. However, according to the book Oriental Mystic Book of Fortune‐Telling by Plutonius “Numbers are, strictly speaking, neither lucky nor unlucky for they depend entirely on expression of harmony that the person has with vibrations affecting them.”
When we apply the meanings of individual numbers corresponding to the letters in our names, and the numbers from our birth dates, it provides a complete personality‐lifestyle profile. Some who are knowledgeable in metaphysics maintain that the soul selects its name to prior to birth to reflect the sound of its capacities. Our universe contains millions of vibrations and every person coming into this world has a unique vibration. Our names can repel or attract depending on their vibrations. The original name chosen for you by your parents is significant, as it was created by the natural laws of attraction, or vibrations, and is more important than any other name you will have, even your married surname.
Although there are other methods of converting letters to numbers, such as the Hebrew Kabalistic system, the easiest and most common method for converting letters to numbers is the simplified modern Pythagorean system, using your name.
Keep in mind that in converting letters to numbers and finding the significance of each number, numerology uses only numbers 1 through 9. Numbers 1 through 8 are represented by three letters, and number 9
by two, as shown in the chart below: (examples: C, L and U have a value of 3; D, M, V have a value of 4)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
A B C D E F G H I
J K L M N O P Q R
S T U V W X Y Z
The letters 1‐9 are associated with and influenced by a ruling planet.
1. The Sun
2. The New Moon
3. Jupiter
4. The Sun and Uranus
5. Mercury
6. Venus
7. Neptune and the Full Moon
8. Saturn
9. Mars
As stated by Ellin Dodge in Numerology Has Your Number (1988), “The stages of growth during the nine months of pregnancy and the final perfection of the fetus in the ninth month are a prime example of the evolution of the numbers 1 through 9.
Your name number indicates your personality, your self‐expression and the things that you were born knowing. The numbers in your birth date produces your life number, which represents your attributes, your objectives, explains the type of people you will meet, and the experiences you will have, in other words, your destiny.
Now in order to calculate your name number, using the chart above, add the number value to each letter in your first name. For example: MARY would be M=4, A=1, R=9, Y=7. Now total these numbers, which is 21.
Always reduce the number to a single digit, so you add these two numbers together, i.e., 2 + 1 = 3. Some people use this number only, while others prefer to use the total of both their first and last names. You could try it both ways and compare the results. If a woman is married, she should use her maiden name. If MARY’s last name is
SMITH, then, again based on the chart above the number values would be S=1, M=4, I=9, T=2, H=8, these numbers total = 24, and broken down to a single digit, 2 + 4 = 6. So the total number values of MARY SMITH is 3 from her first name plus the 6 from her last name = 9.
To formulate your personal vibration number, known as your destiny, use your birth date in the following way. If Mary Smith’s birth date is December 2, 1958, or 12/2/1958, add up each number. In this case the total would be 1+2+2+1+9+5+8 = 28, then add both digits to achieve a single figure which is 2+8=10, which reduces to the final figure of 1. Your birthday and name numbers are unique to you and these two numbers may work in harmony or be opposing. Any recurring number is considered to affect the personality. Check the meaning of these numbers from the list below. Keep in mind that each number has positive and negative aspects.
Number 1: independent, leadership, creative activity, ambitious, perseverance, self‐reliant. Selfishness, stubborn, bossiness, conceited.
Number 2: placid, soft ‐hearted, passive, cooperative, dependable, responsive, adaptable. Moody, weak willed, shy, indifferent.
Number 3: carefree, joyful, sociable, adventurous, talented, adaptable. Whining, impatient, overconfident,
Number 4: loyal, serene, practical, frank, cautious, disciplined, organized. Rebellious, inflexible, crude, clumsy, conservative.
Number 5: strong, adventurous, courageous, active, enterprising, sensual. High‐strung, rash, forgetful, thoughtless, pessimistic.
Number 6: charitable, conscientious, kind, idealistic, domestically concerned, faithful. Opinionated, smothering, impractical, discontented, submissive.
Number 7: freedom‐loving, intuitive, mystical, introspective, enduring, meticulous, poised, wise. Aloof, anti‐social, cynical, restless, hypercritical, moody, inactive.
Number 8: successful, powerful, efficient, self‐reliant, decisive, industrious. Humorless, cold, controlling, blunt, militant, crude.
Number 9: intelligent, generous, artistic, loyal, compassionate, tender, active, tolerant. Jealous, dreamy, lethargic, bitter, aimless, indiscreet.
Numerology is also used for divination in predicting what you can expect in the coming year, by using your birth date. Adding up the number of the day, the month, and the coming year arrives at your vibrational number. Say you were born on October 5th, and you are predicting for 2004. First you must find the single number for the calendar year of 2004. This is achieved by adding together 2 + 0 + 0 + 4 = 6. You would then add the month and day of your birth; 1 + 0 + 5 = 6 plus the 6 from above = 12. Again, remember that one of the basic rules in numerology is that all double numbers are added together and reduced to a single number by adding from left to right. Therefore, 12 would then be reduced to 3, by adding 1 + 2. So the personal year number is 3, also referred to as the year vibration of 3. Now in order to determine the forecast for this “Year Vibration of 3” you would refer to the following Personal Year chart.
Year‐number 1: Your career should strengthen. Focus on new schemes, branch out, break‐ground for new long‐term goals. Make new friends and welcome change. Do not hold back. Take advantage of opportunities to travel.
2: Be cooperative, but not aggressive, be patient, calm and modest. This is a year of learning and adjustment, be introspective and analyze yourself, are you using your talents? Be attentive to details. Stay receptive but relatively inactive, any major decisions made should be done so with much deliberation. A good time to enroll in a self‐improvement class.
Year‐number 3: Efficiency will pay off. A good year to improve upon your appearance and social skills.
Buy new clothes, attend parties. Ease up on your work schedule and take time to play and travel. Romance will flourish. Relieve tensions and burdens, laugh a lot, bring out the child in yourself.
Year‐number 4: Tie up loose ends. Be frugal and attend to business, as it will not be expanding this year.
A serious year, so prepare for the future. Stay down to earth, practice self‐discipline and moderation. Exercise caution, but cultivate long‐term ambitions. Do not complain, as everything is for the good. Grow within yourself, and take especially good care of your health and fitness.
Year‐number 5: Be prepared for a very active year. A good year for change, so you will not want to tie yourself down. Stay active socially. A time for flirtation and love affairs. Travel for business or pleasure will be likely. A favorable year for creative endeavors. Break away from everyday routine, challenge the rules a bit.
Year‐number 6: Time to focus on domestic affairs. Home life will be harmonious. Exercise a charitable and tolerant approach with family and friends. Stay attentive and devoted to loved ones. Study and learn about home improvements. Settle any differences at the end of each day.
Year‐number 7: This is a year to rest and reflect, and may be a time of solitude. Do not rush anything but perhaps develop a skill that you have been interested in the last few years. Study and try to achieve a spiritual enlightenment. This is a non‐material year so do not expect much growth in business or financial affairs, and do not attempt any new ventures. This is not a good year to make any major decisions regarding romance, such as getting married or divorced. Stay in touch with friends and relatives.
Year‐number 8: Expect an active and productive year. You will feel empowered and strong. Now is the time to go after what you want. This is a favorable year to initiate business decisions, but the constructive and maintain a healthy attitude. You may think more of others less fortunate than yourself this year, so be generous with your donations or community work.
Year‐number 9: Expect changes and fluctuations during this year. Reflect on the past eight years and congratulate yourself for the things that turned out well, but let go of the past. Look forward, not back. Spend time on improving relationships, and counseling or inspiring others. This is not a good year to start any new projects, rather focus on completing any that have been in the works. Be hopeful and enthusiastic.
