The Basics and the Benefits of Numerology
 If
you are like most people, you probably dislike math, or perhaps you're
intimidated by it. The good news is that numerology is not about
math.
Yes,
some very simple addition and subtraction of small numbers is involved,
but
that's as complicated as it gets. AIl the numbers that make up a
complete
numerology chart are the result of the simpler forms of arithmetic.
It is no more
complicated, or intimidating, than adding a couple of one- or two-digit
numbers.
The art of numerology is based on
the personality of numbers, their inner
nature and vibration, and how they can be used to better understand
yourself
and the world around you. You probably never thought of numbers as
having
a personality, but if you consider them a little, you'll realize
that most of us
have preferences for some numbers over others. You make these choices
because you feel some kind of intuitive attraction to the nature
or personality
of a particular number or numbers.
But before I discuss the philosophy, there are other aspects of
numerology
to be considered. Below are some frequently asked questions.
How can I benefit from numerology?
Numerology
is primarily a self-help tool. It is a way to gain greater insight
and understanding into your inner being and true nature. It reveals
aspects of
your character and personality in a way that is fresh and inspiring.
It gives
you a new vantage point from which to look at yourself; one with greater
distance and perspective than many other self-help systems. Self-knowledge
is the key to success and freedom. Having a greater insight into your
strengths
and weaknesses will help you in every aspect of life".
Numerology also offers insights into various cycles, opportunities,
and challenges that you have already faced, or have yet to experience.
In this
respect alone, numerology provides you with a greater perspective on
life; it
helps prepare you for the future. It allows you to cultivate your strengths,
and
to overcome your weaknesses.
What information do I need to do my chart?
All you need to do your chart
is your date of birth (month, day, and year),
your full name (first middle, if any, and last names) as it appears
on your birth
certificate, and the name you go by today. The latter is usually
a shortened
version of your birth name, or a married name. It's the name you
use whenever
you introduce yourself.
What is the effect of changing my name?
The effect of changing your name can be considerable, depending upon
the
other numbers in your chart. While the influence makes itself felt
in a subtle
way from the day you change your name, the change cannot be considered
complete until the new name is fully integrated in your subconscious.
Legally
changing your name is not as important as how much you use the new
name.
