Numerology is normally associated with the ancient philosopher, Pythagoras, who is 
considered to be the Father of mathematics. (But of this I am not sure)
This is one of the quickest and easiest ways
of using numerology.
Remember of course, that there are many ways
of using numbers to get a reading. I will show you one of the simplest
ways.
In this example each letter of
the alphabet is represented by a number between 1 and 9 as follows:
 
| A | 
1 | 
J | 
1 | 
S | 
1 | 
| B | 
2 | 
K | 
2 | 
T | 
2 | 
| C | 
3 | 
L | 
3 | 
U | 
3 | 
| D | 
4 | 
M | 
4 | 
V | 
4 | 
| E | 
5 | 
N | 
5 | 
W | 
5 | 
| F | 
6 | 
O | 
6 | 
X | 
6 | 
| G | 
7 | 
P | 
7 | 
Y | 
7 | 
| H | 
8 | 
Q | 
8 | 
Z | 
8 | 
| I | 
9 | 
R | 
9 | 
 | 
 | 
O.K. So now we take the letters
of someones name and convert it, using this table, into a series of numbers
as follows:
 
 
| W | 
I | 
L | 
L | 
I | 
A | 
M | 
S | 
H | 
A | 
K | 
E | 
S | 
P | 
E | 
A | 
R | 
| 5 | 
9 | 
3 | 
3 | 
9 | 
1 | 
4 | 
1 | 
8 | 
1 | 
2 | 
5 | 
1 | 
7 | 
5 | 
1 | 
9 | 
Now we add every pair of number
together to get a second set of numbers:
5 + 9 = 14
3 + 3 = 6
9 + 1 = 10
4 + 1 = 5
8 + 1 = 9
2 + 5 = 7
1 + 7 = 8
5 + 1 = 6
9 + (nothing) = 9
We now have a the following sequence
of numbers:
14610597869
Repeat the addition of every
pair of numbers again:
1 + 4 = 5
6 + 1 = 7
0 + 5 = 5
9 + 7 = 16
8 + 6 = 14
9 + (nothing = 9
We now have the following sequence
of numbers:
57516149
Repeat the addition of every
pair of numbers again:
5 + 7 = 12
5 + 1 = 6
6 + 1 = 7
4 + 9 = 13
We now have the following sequence
of numbers:
126713
Repeat the addition of every
pair of numbers again:
1 + 2 = 3
6 + 7 = 13
1 + 3 = 4
We now have the following sequence
of numbers:
3134
Repeat the addition of every
pair of numbers again:
3 + 1 = 4
3 + 4 = 7
We now have the following sequence
of numbers:
47
Repeat the addition of every
pair of numbers again:
4 + 7 = 11
O.K. We stop at this point now,
because the number 11 is of special significance as are the numbers 22
and 33. (You would normaly keep repeating the process until you reach a
single digit or one of these special numbers.)

As easy as that !
Well not quite... We still have
to interpret what each number represents.
Here is a list of numbers and
some of their meanings:

-1-
Active, creative, independent, original,
courageous,
inventive, leader, self-reliant,

supportive.

-33-

of teachers, martyr, inspiration, honest, monk.
Here's another, quicker way to
do it:
Take the initial set of numbers
and add all of the digits together.
5+9+3+3+9+1+4+1+8+1+2+5+1+7+5+1+9
= 74
Repeat this process until you
reach either a single digit or the number 11, 22 or 33.
7+4 = 11
And don't think that numerology
can only be used on peoples names. Here are a few other examples of how
numerology can be used:
Add the number of your bithday together. e.g. if you were born on July 4th 1968 and today
was December 18th 1997, we would proceed as follows:
1968070419971218 (your birth year,month,day and todays year,month,day)
Add the numbers according to the formula I showed you.
You should arrive at the number 1.
Meaning: Today is the day to start something new and inventive
