Did you know that your destiny is based on your individual numbers? The art of numerology is based on the vibrations given off by a person's numbers, determined by adding up the numbers from first and last names. This easy-to-use guide enables you to understand how to look at a person's character and how to look into his or her future. Numbers can tell us everything we need to know about our friends, our family and ourselves. Sometimes, we may even have to change our name in order to change our destiny!

Numerology, the theory of numbers, is a simple method of character analysis and predicting the future. On a higher level, the theory of numbers offers a system for understanding the true nature of the universe.

Numerology, like other methods of prediction, maintains that an ordering principle exists, above and beyond the range of natural phenomena, and offers an explanation of the many details and events we experience, based on a clear-cut set of principles.

Modern numerology is based on Pythagorean and Kabalistic principles, but is also influenced by the Christian numerical-symbolism of the middle Ages, and by attempts in the Renaissance to bridge between the Pagan and Christian worlds - between classic philosophy and Christian culture.

Western numerology is based on the Pythagorean principle. This states that reality is constructed mathematically, and that all phenomena are in fact numbers. Hence, each individual's character and destiny may be expressed in numbers. This constitutes the first of the main principles of popular numerology; the second asserts that a person's name (and indeed the name of each thing) contains his true essence.

Your name, according to this magic theory, is not just a random label. Your name is your identity. Your name is likely to disclose who you really are. Numerology converts your name into numerals, and analyzes your personality by interpreting the numbers according to set rules.

Numerologists claim that the full name given to you at birth reflects the mysterious forces acting in the universe, as well as your destiny. Nicknames and other names reflect your image in the eyes of those who gave you those names. A woman's maiden name indicates her character before marriage. Later, her married name is likely to disclose how married life has affected her.
