Numerology

Everything in life including the planets and days are given numerical representations or equivalents when dealing with numerology. Each day of the week also has a number associated with it which would have some specific meaning and these would influence or greatly the people whose numbers coincide with the numbers assigned to those those days. The science behind numerology is metaphysical rather than merely physical although empirical observations do find their way in the mix with meditative realizations and conclusions. The numeric equivalents of days of the week are as follows:
  • Sunday ( 1 - 4 )
  • Monday ( 2 - 7 )
  • Tuesday ( 9 )
  • Wednesday ( 5 )
  • Thursday ( 3 )
  • Friday ( 6 )
  • Saturday ( 8)
Conversely, planets also have numbers assigned to them which describe the characteristics of that planet and the persons whose birth date is associated with those planets and numbers. Although minor planets also have their numerical asignments, this list presents the major planets or heavenly bodies as being the major influences on people on Earth.
  • Sun ( 1 )
  • Moon ( 2 )
  • Jupiter ( 3 )
  • Uranus ( 4 )
  • Mercury ( 5 )
  • Venus ( 6 )
  • Neptune ( 7 )
  • Saturn ( 8 )
  • Mars ( 9 )
As stated before, all numbers no matter how large can be reduced to the basic number which is also called "soul number" or "spirit number". This is done by adding each digit until only one digit remains. To take an example, the number 234 can be reduced to 9 by adding 2 and 3 and 4 together. If the number one arrives at is bigger than nine then the resulting digits are adden once more until only one digit or number remains. This is very crucial in determining which number has the greatest influence over everyone. The birth date of a person determines his ruling number hence, a person born on the 8th has 8 as his or her ruling number. Similarly, those born on the 17th, 26th also have 8 as their ruling number and all of them would share similar characteristics and moods and tendencies.

Crunching numbers

The modern computer principally uses the binary numerical system which only uses the digits 0 and 1. There are many other numerical systems in use in today's computers namely the Octal (base 8) and the Hexadecimal (base 16) systems. Human beings prefer the Decimal system (base 10) which owes its name from the Latin word decem which means ten. Many counting systems have been invented using sticks, bones, stones and the digits of fingers. Most successful of these before the advent of the modern digital calculator is the abacus which originated in China.

The Roman numeral system was widely popular owing to the power and influence of the Roman Empire but suffered a big handicap from having to use many numerals to represent ever increasingly large numbers. The greatest breakthrough in number systems came with the invention of the number zero which made possible the capability to represent large numbers using only a few digits. The Arabic number system when invented pushed great advances in mathematics and number theory. Google is the term used to represent a very, very large number.

Numbers are not only used in computers and mathematics but also in divination called numerology. Using Arabic numbers, each digit is assigned a quality or property which describes everything under the sun. A man's future and fortune can be determined and influenced with the proper application of numerological principles.
