Numerology is the study of numbers and their meanings in relation to one’s life. It is believed that numbers have a unique vibration and energy that can influence various aspects of a person’s life, including their personality, relationships, and destiny. 

One of the most popular forms of numerology is the study of a person’s name and birth date to determine their “life path number.” This number is calculated by adding the digits of a person’s birth date and reducing the sum to a single digit. For example, if a person was born on June 5th, 1990, their life path number would be calculated as follows: 6 + 5 + 1+ 9 + 9 + 0 = 2001, 2 + 0 + 0 +1 = 3. Therefore, the person’s life path number is 3. 

Each life path number is associated with specific traits and characteristics, and is said to reveal a person’s strengths and weaknesses, as well as their potential for success and happiness. For example, people with a life path number of 3 are said to be creative, optimistic, and outgoing, while those with a life path number of 7 are said to be analytical, introspective, and spiritual. 

Another popular form of numerology is the study of a person's name. This involves reducing a person’s name to a single digit by adding the numerical value of each letter. For example, the name “John Smith” would be calculated as follows: J = 1, O = 6, H = 8, N = 5, S = 1, M = 4, I = 9, T = 2, H = 8. Therefore, the numerical value of the name “John Smith” is 44, or reduces down to its singular value of 8.

Numbers in the Environment

Numerology is also used to study the vibration of numbers in a person’s environment, such as house numbers, phone numbers, and license plate numbers. It is believed that these numbers can have a positive or negative influence on a person’s life, and can be used to enhance or overcome certain challenges. This is the application of numbers are qualitative not quantitative. It is the same premise of the alphabet translated into numbers. The quantity or value of the number reflects the resonance, the vibration or the quality. In the instance of a name or the birth date, the quality of that name or birth date has been reduced into its primary signature or vibrational frequency. This is applied to numbers in one’s environment, creating a qualitative understanding of the vibrational resonance between self and one’s outer world. (Free Download Numeric Yantras)
