The Basics of Numerology
By Michael McClain
Numerology is the study of numbers, and the occult manner in which they reflect certain aptitudes and character tendencies, as part of the cosmic plan. Each letter has a numeric value that provides a related vibration. The sum of the numbers in your birth date and the sum of value derived from the letters in the name provide an interrelation of vibrations. These numbers show a great deal about character, purpose in life, what motivates, and where talents may lie. Experts in numerology use numbers to determine the best time for major moves and activities in life. Numerology is used to decide when to invest, when to marry, when to travel, when to change jobs, or relocate. I'm not claiming that this book wil make an expert of you so that all these can be answered, but we can at least get you on the way.
The first question I asked when numerology was introduced to me was why does it work? The second question was how does it work? Well, if we could answer these it wouldn't be an occult study, would it? Is it a God force? Do numbers have vibrations or something like that? Who knows? Just be objective and give it a try.
Pythagoras, the Greek mathematician who lived from 569-470 B.C., is said by many to be the originator of much of what we call numerology today. The actual origins of numerology predate Pythagoras, the most popular being the Hebrew Kabbalah. In the twentieth century, the discipline seems to magically reappear in the form of a series of books published from 1911-1917 by L. Dow Balliett. It was helped along in the 1930s by Florence Campbell. Within the next few decades, a wealth of literature was available to the public. Indeed, if you look at the previous centuries, it would seem that the discipline has moved rapidly. Perhaps all of this was known at a much earlier time, and it was just hiding from us for a while.
Numerology Introduction
Numerology is perhaps the easiest of the occult arts to understand and use. All you need is the birth date and the complete name of an individual to unlock all of the numbers' secrets.
The first consideration of numerology is the Life Path number. The Life Path number comes from the date of birth expressed numerically as MM-DD-YYYY.
We will also be converting the FULL BIRTH NAME to a number. Most authorities agree that the full birth name recorded on your birth certificate is the name for all calculations. Nicknames, name changes, or marriage name changes do not dilute the importance of the name given by your parents at birth.
There are eleven numbers used in constructing numerology charts. These numbers are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, and 22. The numerologist must reduce other numbers from adding the numbers in the complete birth date or from the values assigned to each name by adding the digits together until the sum achieved is one of the core single-digit numbers, 11 or 22.
For example, the date, February 8, 1966, is handled by adding 2+8+1966=1976. Then, 1+9+7+6=23, finally, 2+3=5. The individual has a 5 Life Path number.
In another example, a name with letter-values adding up to 48 would be reduced by adding 4+8=12; then 1+2=3. The individual has a 3 Destiny number.
Master numbers are exceptions to the rule that numbers must be reduced to a single-digit. The master numbers 11 and 22 are reputedly intensified versions of the single-digit number they replace (2 and 4). These numbers suggest a potential for a high degree of learning and achievement very often in a more stressful environment. In most individuals, the master numbers operate at a much more tangible or practical level, becoming essentially the same as the single-digit parallel. Letters and numbers, you will learn, are interchangeable. Here is a chart of the values assigned to each of the letters in the English alphabet:

Some Precautionary Thoughts on Master Numbers 11 & 22
The longer I study and think about numerology, the more disenchanted I get with the concept of Master Numbers.
My first concerns arose when the traditional 11 and 22 master numbers were enjoined by 33/6, 44/8, 55/1, and 66/3. All of these latter-day master numbers seemed to be wanting their shot at greatness, too. For years I maintained a staunch conservative resistance to this change, and stuck with the original masters excluding the new pretenders. Over the years, this has upset a few 33/6s along the way. But I steadfastly sent them on their way to find others who would feed their vanity and good fortune, in an ego sense, of being born on one of those rare dates producing a total of 33.
On reflection, it's hard to justify why, if the 11 can siphon off all of the potential superlatives of the spiritual 2, and 22 can steal the glory from the hardworking 4, then why can't the 33s do the same to the naturally nurturing 6. Seems only fair. But with most of the optimal trails of 2 and 4 expended on their higher level
brethren, these two solid citizens are left with delineations reflecting personages resigned to the ordinary and humdrum. To me, it is very hard to read what numerologists say about 1 through 9, without coming away with the sense that the authors believe that the higher the number the more potential for the person. The 2 and 4 are usually particularly drab, indeed. I just have a hard time accepting this. I hold firmly to the idea that all numbers are totally and without qualification, equal in terms of human potential. It is simply that, that potential manifests, thankfully, in a wide array of different kinds of people.
Master Numbers can be a Problem. I have the sense that upon learning one is a master
, the reaction can go a couple of different ways. Neither are very desirable in my view.
In some, the discovery that your Life Path number or Destiny number is one of the master numbers can be a little freaky and intimidating. Not knowing what you are supposed to do with this wonderful gift
can cause confusion and even paranoia. Not very healthy when a reading of the root number would give a much more accurate picture for both the 2 and the 4. With the potential for greatness included in the more comprehensive reads, it is far better to see the nature of your being and what the potentials are likely to be. As a member of this crowd with my 11/2 Destiny number, I'm feeling better already knowing that I no longer have to be so illuminating
.
Beware of the Master Number Ego. The other group of masters proudly hail their superlative status. They adopt the view that they are somehow better than all of their single-digit peers. Stands to reason, doesn't it? Their number is a master number and not just
