A numerology report is based on one's date of birth. While numerology is study of numbers, it can also be helpful in presenting valuable insight about specific personality traits and characteristics of individuals. By combining sum of numbers in ones birth date with sum from numerically-assigned letters of a person's name, a numerology report can be a prolific guide into one's past, present and future. An ancient art and science, numerology is said to have originated by Greek mathematician, Pythagoras but could date back as far as Hebrew Kabbalah.
To better comprehend numerology, one must understand basic foundations:
There are 11 Core Numbers that are utilized in construction of a Numerology report or chart. The numbers used are 1 through 11, and 22. Equations that form higher numbers are reduced (by adding digits together) until one of core numbers is attained. The only numbers that cannot be reduced are Master numbers, 11 and 22. These master numbers reflect a heightened or intensified degree of core numbers 2 and 4.
In initial portion of a numerology report, a Life path Number is established by using 2-digit month, 2-digit day and 4-digit year: e.g. mm/dd/yyyy. The Life path is divided into three separate areas of one's life. Founded on date of birth, first life path is correlated to month of birth. The day of one's birth is then linked to second life path. And finally, last life path number is based on year of birth. The Life path number describes an individual for what and who he is.
Next, an individual's FULL birth name is used to further calculate one's numerology interpretation. Below is a list of alphabet assigned to specific numeric values:
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
Now we're ready for Expression, or Destiny Number. The expression number is based on all letters in an individual's birth name. The expression number defines talents, and attitudes that one has or has potential to use. To find expression number, one must add all letter values from each name together and then reduce sum to form a core number.
