Numerology is said to be the sole blend of
mathematics and physics, interpreted by the mystical science
of vibration. It is in fact a practical method of understanding
ones own deeper nature. It follows the method of simple addition
to reach the accurate answer. Numerology associates the significance
of numbers to words by making it possible to analyze
names and find their numeric significance.
Besides knowing more about our character, talents, abilities,
we can also determine the best time for major moves and activities
in life, like when to marry, travel, invest and so on by relying
on numerology.
All that is required is your birth name and the month, day,
and year you were born. Your name itself can provide immense
information regarding the personality, natural
talents, skills and abilities. For analyzing details regarding
a persons name, his first name, middle name and last
name are taken into consideration.
According to Numerology while calculating the life path number,
the date of birth is added to the number of birth month and
year of birth.
Beliefs about the origin of Numerology
The word Numerology comes from the Latin word
"numerus", which means "number", and the
Greek word "logos", which means "word",
"thought" or "expression".
Various sources, such as Pythagoras, the Greek philosopher,
the ancient Chaldeans, Brahmins
of India, and the sages of ancient China, are given credit
for the formation of Numerology. Among this, the Chaldean
and Pythagorean schools of numbers are the most widely used.
Although the Chaldean numerology is older, the Pythagorean
system of numbers is far more popular.
No one has yet traced out the exact date of the origin of numerology
or numbers. Numerology has been mentioned in the holy books
like the Bible, the Talmud, the Koran and even in the
Egyptian book of the dead.
The Chaldean system has its roots in Ancient Babylon. It
is connected to the Vedic System of India and the Kabbalah
System of the Hebrew mystics. As per the Chaldean System every
letter has a unique vibration, and numbers are assigned to
letters based on the vibration value.
The originator of much of what we call Numerology today,
is the ancient Greek mathematician, Pythagoras of Samos (569-470
BC). Pythagoras, known as the Father of Modern Numerology,
studied the systems of India, Arabia, Persia, Palestine, Phoenicia,
Chaldea, Babylon and Egypt. Numerology numbers are assigned
by sequence in the Pythagorean System.
Numerology applies the method of character analysis
using the numbers of names and birth dates in its quest to solve the eternal
questions. Numerologists following the Pythagorean theory
use a letter chart to assign numerical values to your name.
They use the basic numbers 1 through 9 that are almost universally
accepted in Numerology circles and the Master numbers 11 and
22.
Each letter in the English alphabet has a numeric value that
is surrounded by certain energies. Total of the numbers in
your birth date and the total of the value derived from the
letters in the name provide an interrelation of vibrations.
Now numerology is widely accepted all around the world and
people depend on it to name their newborn babies and businesses.
The trend of changing one's name as per numerological suggestions
is also fast catching up.
Thus according to Numerology your name and date of birth has a
profound influence on your personality.
