Understanding Numerology: The Power of Numbers in Divination
Numerology is the ancient practice of using numbers and number combinations for divination. Often incorporated into psychic readings, each number in numerology carries a unique meaning and corresponds to the letters of the alphabet. Through these meanings and correspondences, numerologists interpret numbers to create insightful charts.
The Basics of Numerology
Numerology uses numbers 0 through 10, and any number larger than 10 is reduced to a single digit by adding its digits together. Here are the generally accepted meanings of these numbers:
- 0: Everything and nothing
- 1: Individuality
- 2: Balance and partnership
- 3: Communication
- 4: Creation
- 5: Action
- 6: Responsibility
- 7: Thought and the mind
- 8: Power
- 9: Completion
- 10: New beginnings
Although these meanings can vary among numerologists, they are a good starting point. Sometimes, numbers 11 and 22 are given special significance as prime numbers, symbolizing higher importance in numerology.
Numbers and Letters
In numerology, each letter of the alphabet is assigned a number from 1 to 26. When analyzing a person's name, each letter is converted to its corresponding number, then summed and reduced to a single digit. For example:
-
Sue: S (19), U (21), E (5)
- 19 becomes 1 + 9 = 10, then 1 + 0 = 1
- 21 becomes 2 + 1 = 3
- 5 remains 5
- Sum: 1 + 3 + 5 = 9
Numerology Charts and Reports
Numerology charts can be created for individuals or to compare two people, such as in a relationship. These reports provide insights into a person's or relationship's inner workings. Typically, a numerologist requires a person's name and date of birth to complete a natal numerology chart. For more complex charts, additional information might be needed.
The Skills of a Numerologist
Creating numerology reports involves understanding the connections between letters and numbers, performing calculations, and interpreting the results. A skilled numerologist can explain the process clearly to clients and answer their questions. Learning numerology takes time, but it is accessible with dedication.
Numerology in Practice
Numerology can be combined with other forms of divination like tarot readings or rune casting to add depth to the insights. Numbers have always held special meanings and can enrich various psychic readings. Many psychic readers incorporate numerology into their practices, interpreting messages that come in the form of numbers.
