The numbers game

Numbers have always fascinated me but not in the academic way. New Math was nice and presented numbers in a playful way. However, my interest in numbers was purely mystical or maybe I should say unscientific bordering on the superstitious. The number seven was lucky but not the number thirteen you know, that kind of mumbo-jumbo. Come to think of it that was the extent of my fascination with numbers until I met a Chinese numerologist who taught me that all numbers no matter how big can always be reduced to their basic digit. The basic digits are 1 through 9. 10 can be reduced to 1 by adding 1 and 0 thereby producing the sum 1. 29 has it's root or basic number 2 which is derived from adding 2 and 9 producing 11 and further adding 1 and 1 which comes to 2.

He said that one can get one's personal number by adding the numbers that represent one's birthday. The number you arrive at is your personal number which guides your life which might be akin to a roadmap to a personal utopia. Furthermore, he explained that whatever that number is you can keep adding to it everyday and come up with your life cycle. He said that every day in one's life has a number associated with it and the number for the current day can be arrived at by subtracting the one's birth date from the current date and to reduce that to the basic digit. Whatever number you come up with tells you what kind of day you will have like, you can have lucky days and unlucky days. If the number is 9 then it is good to ask God for something because he would not refuse anything asked on that day. This could be considered Numerological Bio-Chart much like Biorhythm Charts.
