Numerology is an ancient practice based on the idea that the entire universe is a system, one that mathematically breaks down into basic elements: Numbers. The practice reveals numbers’ inner nature and vibration, and how they correspond to your personal characteristics.
As a tool for self-awareness and greater clarity, numerology offers insight into the opportunities that will come to you during the years ahead. It describes the cycles you will experience during the course of your life, offering guidance in the areas of career, romance and prosperity. By understanding your own nature — your talents, life goals and hidden characteristics — you can better harness these aspects of your personality to approach opportunities on the horizon.
Numerology is a language that allows you to expand the horizon of your spiritual awareness. The practice is based on the notion that everything is connected and that everything exists in perfect synchronicity — a vision essential to metaphysical sciences.
Numerology opens doors in your psyche that you did not know existed. It’s a way to gain greater insight into your inner self, revealing aspects of your character and personality in a way that is both fresh and inspiring. It provides a new vantage point from which to look at yourself — one with greater distance and perspective than many other self-help systems.
Self-knowledge is the key to success and freedom, and a deeper understanding of your strengths and weaknesses allows you to gain the clarity needed to know your true nature.
Numbers can be seen as archetypes with each number embodying a distinct vibrational energy and inner nature. While you may not have thought of numbers as having personalities, as you get to know them, you’ll likely find you are drawn to some numbers over others. Pay attention to these preferences. This pull is guided by an intuitive attraction to the nature — or personality — of the number.
Your chart reveals your potential, strengths, weaknesses, challenges and lessons to be learned. Every number suggests potential strengths and weaknesses — all things have their light and dark sides. It is your freedom as an individual to draw from your highest potential.
A numerologist can help interpret your chart and provide insight into which direction(s) a person is likely to move in — and how much of their potential they will use or abuse. Considering the balance of a chart, or the spreading of energies, is one of the biggest challenges for even the most experienced numerologists.
For example, an individual with few or no 1s in their chart may have a hard time establishing a strong sense of identity, but may be loving, generous and extremely cooperative. On the other hand, an individual with several 1s will likely have a strong sense of identity and ambition, but may be tempted to veer toward aggression, selfishness and even violence. Both instances are examples of an imbalance within an individual’s chart which they want to be mindful of.
Numerology is a tool that points to cycles in your future. These cycles may indicate the possibility of painful experiences at a certain time in your life, such as accidents, money concerns and divorce, as well as positive events during certain periods. However, as an individual, you always have the opportunity to turn the course of events in your favor — or to let an opportunity pass you by.
For example, numerology can indicate that a certain period of your life will be highly rewarding, a kind of payment for years of effort. While such predictions are highly accurate, the rewards are comparable to the effort you have made.
No, numerology cannot predict your death. Be mindful of any individual or website that claims to be able to do so.
Numbers can be seen as archetypes, with each single digit representing distinct qualities that we all possess in varying degrees. Each number is the counterpart, or the opposite, of the number next to it in chronological order. Learn more about the qualities and characters of each single digit from 1 to 9.
Each of the cardinal numbers, 1 through 9, has a distinct personality that reflects human characteristics, qualities and idiosyncrasies. They each also embody a set of nuanced characteristics that are impacted by the number’s place in your chart. Certain numbers complement each other, and specific combinations may either enhance or impede another’s effects.
Just as DNA is a molecule made up of four basic nucleic acids arranged in a complex, unique spiraling ladder, these nine cardinal numbers — representing nine archetypal human qualities — are arranged in a complex, unique chart for everyone. This arrangement forms a specific personality with distinct strengths, weaknesses and nuances.
Numbers are not inherently good or bad. Each number has positive and negative aspects, and a certain number may only be considered “better” than others in context or when they relate to specific environmental or situational demands.
On the surface, your preference for a favorite number may seem arbitrary, but much like favorite colors have been shown to influence moods and behaviors, numbers correspond to our inner states. Numbers reveal much about our nature and can even influence how you feel. Take note of the number or numbers you feel drawn to, and learn more about their archetypical representations.
