NUMEROLOGICALLY SPEAKING
Just as astrology uses the zodiac to predict the future, numerology calls upon the numbers 1 to 9 to explain your characteristics and destiny. According to numerologists, life operates in cycles of 9.
Numerology can assist you to understand yourself and the people around you, whether you know them or not. Pythagoras, the Greek mathematician, astrologer and philosopher born about 608BC, believed that everything could be reduced to mathematical terms, and if expressed as a numerical value, the universe would be better understood.
To work out your ruling number of life number, simply add together all the numbers of your birthdate, i.e:
31 August 1982 = 31.08.1982 = 3 + 1 + 0 + 8 + 1 + 9 + 8 + 2 = 32
The total of 32 is further reduced to a single digit, i.e: 3 + 2 = 5, making the Ruling Number = 5
