What’s Your Number?
I was going through my bookshelf the other day and found an old hardcover that I bought at a used bookstore years ago called History of the Occult by T. Wynne Griffon.
It includes topics such as witchcraft, ghosts and the spirit world, astrology, divination and parapsychology but the chapter on numerology is what caught my eye.
Based on the belief that numbers influence not only a person’s life but also his or her personality, numerology is practiced in a number of ancient cultures.
Once considered a form of divination, it has also been used as more of a tool to analyze personalities and potential.
HOW DOES NUMEROLOGY WORK
The basis of all numerological systems relies upon the primary numbers from 1 to 9. By taking any number, and adding those numbers together until the figures are reduced to a single digit, one can use this method to analyze one’s birth number or name.
People have also been known to use numerology to predict which dates are more favorable for undertaking certain tasks by analyzing their birth number, name number and date number.
THE NUMBERS
Every person can have multiple numbers:
- Birth Number: arrived at by adding the numbers in one’s full date of birth; indicates one’s natural traits; also known as Number of Personality
- Name Number: using a grid to assign one of the 9 primary numbers to each letter of the alphabet; also known as Number of Development
- Number of attainment: if one changes their name, their name number would change
CALCULATING YOUR BIRTH NUMBER
To calculate your birth number, you simply add together the single digits that make up your birthday

1+1+4+1+9+7+3=26 2+6=8
Your birth number: 8[/su_note]
CALCULATING YOUR NAME NUMBER
Use the following chart to find your Name Number:
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 |
A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I |
J | K | L | M | N | O | P | Q | R |
S | T | U | V | W | X | Y | Z |

THE NUMBER 2 as as BIRTH NUMBER
The number 2 represents a search for balance. People with two as their birth number have the ability to see both sides of the situation. This sense of fair play can work against them, as their desire for balance can cause them to waver indecisively. The sense of judgment that allows them to give good advice to their friends can prevent them from making up their own minds regarding their own affairs.
Those with two as their birth number should learn to two of situations as they are rather than try to change them to suit their own desires. They should avoid situations that are marked by extremes or that call for decisions.
These people are gentle, kind and tactful. Number twos are artistic, but as they are given more to thought than to action, they often lack the force they need to carry out their plans. Although they are charming and intuitive, two’s sometimes suffer from a lack of self-confidence. Their greatest fault is over generosity, and they should give the same consideration to themselves as they do to others.

Hey Johanna. Thanks for taking part! If you want to email me the updated Date/Event, I’ll use that for your reading đŸ™‚
OK Johanna…I’ve done your reading. Here are your numbers!
BIRTH NUMBER: 1
The number one stands for the Sun. People with one as a Birth Number are strong-willed and driven. Ambitious and active, number 1 people are born leaders. With their dominant personalities, they are born leaders, winners and innovators. These people are forceful and untiring and can achieve great things if their goals are well directed. However, if misguided, people with 1 as a Birth Number can be self-centered, ruthless and tyrannical.
———————————————————————————-
NAME NUMBER: 2
As a Name Number, 2 denotes a person with a keen sense of judgment. But 2s are planners, not doers, and they need associates to carry out their plans. In choosing their associates, 2s should rely on their sense of judgment rather than on emotion as they may be wont to do.
The quest for balance can create in instability in people with 2 as their Name Number. Though generally happy, their emotional dispositions can make them restless and gloomy; 2s therefore should avoid situations that promote worry. They should make the most of their friendly natures and avoid arguments. These people get along well with their opposites – number 1s.
———————————————————————————-
MAIDEN NAME NUMBER: 1
As a Name Number, 1 indicates vigor and a desire for action but that action is best directed toward immediate goals rather than long-term ones. Determination is the hallmark of the Name Number 1. These people are successful, but they are apt to spend money freely once they have earned it.
———————————————————————————-
DATE NUMBER: 8
Day 8: This is the day to think big. Smaller projects should be avoided unless they lead the way to something grander. Effort and action will bring results, and complicated issues can be settled on this day. It is the day to handle money matters – the bigger, the better – for this is the day that fortunes can be made.
Note: I went with the Date/Event number you sent but if you want a future date, feel free to send it along and I’ll do another reading!
Again, thanks for taking part!! And Happy Halloween!
