Numerology. Have you ever heard about it? Did you know your Root Number? and what about the Numerology techniques? Did you know about these ones? Well, as you may have guessed already both have to do with numbers. But why bother about numbers? Just, take a sec and think about it, numbers are all around us. We set our plans and schedules around numbers, our birthday is celebrated because of the day we came into this world. Again, numbers.
And I bet you have a favorite "lucky number" and I bet you as well that you may have experienced some strike of luck associated with numbers. Surely you like more even numbers, or uneven.... it doesn't matter how, numbers are generally linked to our daily lives.
Just as in astrology planets are associated to our zodiac signs and the energy of our solar, moon and rising energies, numbers also carry some meaningful messages in numerology. Numbers are another means for insights into ourselves, our personality traits, our future, even a greater purpose of which you are not yet aware of.
In this article, we'll be diving into the world of numerology: What is it? Why is it relevant? Are there numerology techniques? Stay with us as we'll surely answer some of these questions.
Numerology is by strict sense of the word, the study (Ancient Greek logia) of numbers (Ancient Greek numero ). But don't worry it's not about Mathematics but more about the hidden, mystical meaning of numbers in coincidence with some events in your life, or even in history. Numerology involves also studying the importance of numbers in relation to words, ideas, concepts or names and it's astrology's closest friend. Let's take a closer look...
Numerology is also an incredibly practical tool for finding patterns and recurrent digits. Your ID number, your home address, the number in the plate of your car, everything is good enough for numerologists to find patterns in your life and the things you experience on a daily basis.
Numerology is considered another "divinatory art" in which you can explore your inner world, and the energies that favor you to make good things come into your life or destiny. According to numerology we all have a life-path number, a sort of birth chart but with numbers, which we''ll refer back later.
Nowadays numerology lies its foundations on the teachings by Pythagoras, and ancient Greek philosopher and mathematician. He is considered an outstanding Mathematician, but what they don't tell you at school is that the true nature of his studies of numbers was more connected to the inter connectivity of numbers, rather than to their quantitative use.
He believed that our true existence was connected to vibratory internal and external energies that could be quantified and studied. According to Pythagoras himself then, numbers are more linked to our fortune than what we think.
It's not necessary, though to be a Greek philosopher or mathematician to be interested and get started with numerology. All you need to discover the magic of numbers is a piece of paper, a pen, some skills on arithmetical operations (or a calculator, why not?) and tons of curiosity!
A Life Path Number is to numerology what a birth chart is to astrology. Remember that these two are actually very close. You'll see, a Life Path Number then is an easy way to get started with numerology. Numerology will always try to get the root number, which means reducing digits until you get a number only composed of one digit, except for 11 and 22 - regarded as Master Numbers, on which we''ll check shortly. That only single digit number is your Life Path Number.
Your individual Life Path Number will have similar characteristics to your solar zodiac sign, and this is no surprise because no matter from what perspective or discipline you approach it, you are here to be in a given vibration, destiny as some people call it.
Well, your Life Path Number will be all about this: your higher purpose, your virtues, your flaws, the experiences that you lived, are living ad we'll live. The Life Path Number is even about the tint and "order" of your stories. Put in very simple terms your Life Path Number in like a fingerprint of your cosmic self.
Of course every number will be important to analyze , but there are some numbers that hold more power than others. This is the case of the double-digit triplet of numbers 11, 22 and 33 which are considered Master Numbers in numerology.
When put together, these three very powerful energies represent the 3 stages of Creation: 11 is the visionary, that represents envisioning (first stage). 22 represents the Architect and naturally implies building, material creation (second stage). Finally, 33 is the number that delivers creation to the world and represents sharing (third stage).
Although these are powerful pairs, they are not always relevant. Their power and influence on you and your life will depend on their placements, as it much happens in astrology with the signs. We are not going to dwell into this here, but if you are interested you can learn more about Master Numbers in here!
Another common technique used by numerologists has to do with converting letters to numbers so as to clarify their hidden meaning. How so? Well, in numerology you can translate everything into a root number, even letters!
Remember Pythagoras? Well, according to him, a number can be assigned to each letter of the alphabet, like this:
1 = A, J, S
2 = B, K, T
3 = C, L, U
4 = D, M, V
5 = E, N, W
6 = F, O, X
7 = G, P, Y
8 = H, Q, Z
9 = I, R
When you get a root number by using this technique, your result will have the name of Destiny Number, according to numerologists.
Your Destiny Number will give you a greater understanding on your true self, and the higher purpose set by your Life Path Number. The Destiny Number will express the nature of your experiences, the how...
Do you want to know what your Destiny Number is? Very simple. You just have to do the maths and find the root number of all your full name -first, middle and family name- .
You have to minimize each name to one digit and then sum up the total amount. There goes your Root Number or the Destiny Number.
Once you find your Life Path Number and Destiny Number, you have to interpret what they mean. It's like first knowing your zodiac signs and then interpreting what those energies mean to your and your life. But the truth is that, this part of numerology is a whole inner discipline in itself and it's not the purpose of this article to go on about this. In case you want to dig into it, you'll love our next section!
