What is Numerology?

Numerology is the ancient science of numbers. It is based on the belief that every number carries a unique vibration that influences human life, personality, relationships, and destiny. Just like astrology studies the effect of planets, numerology studies the effect of numbers in your date of birth and name.

History & Origins of Numerology

• Chaldean Numerology (Babylonian): Oldest system, based on vibrations of numbers 1–8.
• Pythagorean Numerology (Greek): Most popular today, uses numbers 1–9.
• Indian Numerology: Deeply connected with astrology, planets, and nakshatras.
• Chinese Numerology: Based on the Lo Shu Grid and Feng Shui directions.

Across civilizations, numbers were seen as more than math — they were keys to destiny.

Why is Numerology Important?

• Discover your life purpose (Life Path Number).
• Reveal hidden strengths & weaknesses.
• Understand compatibility in love & business.
• Guide your career & money decisions.
• Use remedies (colors, gems, dates) for balance.

The Core Numbers in Numerology

1. Life Path Number – your destiny & life journey (from your date of birth).
2. Destiny / Expression Number – your talents & skills (from your full name).
3. Soul Urge Number – your inner desires (from vowels in your name).
4. Personality Number – how people see you (from consonants in your name).
5. Birthday Number – hidden strengths (from the day you were born).

Each number has a positive and a negative side. The balance of these numbers shapes your life.

Key Takeaway

Numerology is not superstition — it is a science of vibrations. By learning it, you will understand why some years feel lucky while others feel heavy, why some names bring success while others bring obstacles, and how to choose the right timing, career, and partner.

1. Life Path Number

The Life Path Number is the most important number in numerology. It is calculated from your full date of birth and reveals your life purpose, lessons, and natural direction.

Formula: Add all digits of your birth date until you reduce to a single digit (except Master Numbers 11, 22, 33).

Example: 22 May 1994 = 2+2+0+5+1+9+9+4 = 32 → 3+2 = 5 → Life Path 5.

• 1: Leadership, independence.
• 2: Cooperation, sensitivity.
• 3: Creativity, communication.
• 4: Stability, discipline.
• 5: Freedom, adventure.
• 6: Responsibility, love, care.
• 7: Spirituality, research.
• 8: Power, success, authority.
• 9: Compassion, service, wisdom.

2. Destiny / Expression Number

The Destiny (Expression) Number is calculated from the full name at birth. It shows talents, abilities, and the path you are destined to follow.

Formula: Convert each letter of your name into numbers (Pythagorean chart) → add them → reduce to a single digit.

Example: “Prashant Lukhi” → add letter values → Destiny Number = 1.

3. Soul Urge Number

The Soul Urge (Heart’s Desire) Number is calculated from the vowels in your name. It reveals your inner desires, motivation, and spiritual calling.

Example: For “Prashant Lukhi,” take vowels A, A, U, I → add numbers → reduce to a single digit.

4. Personality Number

The Personality Number comes from the consonants in your full name. It reflects how others see you and your outward personality.

It’s the “first impression” you create in the world.

5. Birthday Number

The Birthday Number is the date on which you were born. It reveals special talents and qualities.

Example: If you were born on the 22nd, your Birthday Number is 22 (a Master Number).

6. Maturity Number

The Maturity Number (also called Destiny Maturity) is the sum of your Life Path and Destiny Numbers. It reveals what you will grow into later in life, usually after age 35.

Example: Life Path 5 + Destiny 1 = 6 → Maturity Number is 6.

What is the Lo Shu Grid?

The Lo Shu Grid is a 3×3 magic square from Chinese numerology. Using your date of birth, you map digits (1–9) into nine boxes to reveal natural strengths (present numbers) and growth areas (missing numbers). Each number represents a distinct quality such as logic, creativity, discipline, wealth, and spirituality.

How to Build Your Lo Shu Grid

1. Write your date of birth in digits (e.g., 22-05-1994 → digits: 2,2,0,5,1,9,9,4).
2. Ignore zeros (0 is not placed in the grid).
3. Place each remaining digit into its box (1 in “1” cell, 2 in “2” cell, … 9 in “9” cell). Repeat digits stack in the same cell.

Tip: The count of each number matters. More repeats usually amplify that number’s theme.

Meaning of Each Cell (1–9)

• 1 (Logic): reasoning, planning, focus.
• 2 (Relations): empathy, partnership, support.
• 3 (Creativity): expression, art, communication.
• 4 (Practicality): structure, diligence, method.
• 5 (Center): balance, adaptability, decision power.
• 6 (Responsibility): care, duty, family, service.
• 7 (Spirituality): intuition, study, inner wisdom.
• 8 (Discipline): organization, authority, wealth building.
• 9 (Idealism): vision, reputation, recognition.

Present vs Missing Numbers

Remedies & Enhancements

• 1: Write daily priorities; practice single-task focus.
• 2: Nurture 1–2 key relationships each week.
• 3: Create content: short posts, reels, or journaling.
• 4: Fixed routines; weekly operations checklist.
• 5: Breathwork / travel breaks to build flexibility.
• 6: Acts of service; structure family time.
• 7: Study/meditation; mentor guidance.
• 8: Budgeting; negotiate pricing; wealth discipline.
• 9: Reputation work: testimonials, PR, charity.

Kua Number: How to Calculate

Your Kua Number (Feng Shui) identifies lucky directions for health, love, success, and growth. Use your birth year (Gregorian):

Kua Directions (Good & Bad)

Kua numbers split into two groups:

• East Group: 1, 3, 4, 9
• West Group: 2, 6, 7, 8

*Bad directions are used for avoidance; prioritize good directions for desk-facing, head while sleeping, entry orientation, and important activities.

Worked Example

Birth Date: 22-05-1994 → digits (ignore 0): 2,2,2,1,9,9,4.

• Lo Shu counts: 1×1, 2×3, 3×0, 4×1, 5×0, 6×0, 7×0, 8×0, 9×2.
• Strengths: Partnerships (2), ideals/brand (9).
• Gaps: 3 (marketing), 4 (systems), 5 (balance), 6 (service), 7 (research), 8 (discipline).
• Focused remedies: weekly content routine (3), SOPs (4), breathwork breaks (5), service rituals (6), study hour (7), budgeting (8).
• Kua (male, 1994): 9+4=13 → 1+3=4 → 10−4 = 6 (West Group).
• Use: Face West or NE for work; sleep with head towards NW or SW.

What is Name Numerology?

Name Numerology converts letters of your full name into numbers to reveal your Destiny/Expression (talents & path), Soul Urge (inner desires), and Personality (first impression). Names carry vibration; even small changes (adding/removing a letter) can shift outcomes in career, relationships, and branding.

Systems: Pythagorean vs Chaldean

• Pythagorean: 1–9 cycle, widely used for personal charts and Destiny number.
• Chaldean: Oldest system (1–8), popular for brand/business naming and practical results.

Tip: Many practitioners calculate both and keep the one that resonates with life path and goals.

Pythagorean Letter Chart

Chaldean Letter Chart

Note: Chaldean does not use 9 in assignment (9 is sacred). Vowels are treated normally for calculations.

How to Calculate: Destiny, Soul Urge, Personality

Worked Example

Name: “Prashant Lukhi” (for demonstration; use your exact legal birth name for Destiny.)

Business & Brand Names

• Choose a number that supports Life Path and industry goals (e.g., 6 for luxury/beauty, 5 for marketing/online sales, 8 for finance/authority).
• Consider domain + social handle availability; keep spelling simple.
• Test both Pythagorean & Chaldean; keep the one that feels lucky and performs better.
• Prefer positive compound numbers (e.g., 14/5, 23/5, 32/5, 33/6, 41/5, 42/6) for sales & visibility.
• Avoid traditionally challenging compounds for brands (e.g., 16, 18, 26) unless balanced by strategy.

Why Personal Cycles Matter

Numerology works in 9-year cycles. Each year, month, and day carries its own vibration that affects opportunities, challenges, and outcomes. By tracking your Personal Year, Month, and Day Numbers, you can plan major moves such as marriage, career shifts, travel, and investments at the right time.

How to Calculate Personal Year Number

1. Take your birth month + birth day + current year.
2. Add all digits together until you reduce to 1–9 (keep 11/22 as master).

Example: DOB = 22 May, Year = 2025.
0+5 (May) + 2+2 (day) + 2+0+2+5 (year) = 5+4+9 = 18 → 1+8 = 9 → Personal Year = 9.

Meanings of Personal Years (1–9)

How to Calculate Personal Month Number

1. Take your Personal Year number.
2. Add the calendar month number (Jan=1, Feb=2 … Dec=12).
3. Reduce to 1–9.

Example: Personal Year 9, Month = July (7).
9 + 7 = 16 → 1+6 = 7 → Personal Month = 7.

How to Calculate Personal Day Number

1. Take your Personal Month number.
2. Add the calendar day (1–31).
3. Reduce to 1–9.

Example: Personal Month = 7, Day = 15.
7 + 1+5 = 13 → 1+3 = 4 → Personal Day = 4.

Using Cycles for Success

• Job interviews: Schedule on Personal Days 1, 5, or 8 for confidence and recognition.
• Marriage: Choose Personal Year 2 or 6 for harmony.
• Investments: Plan in Personal Years 8 or 9, avoid risky moves in 5.
• Spiritual retreats: Ideal in Personal Year 7 or Personal Day 7.
• Business launches: Start in Personal Year 1 or 3 for growth.

Quick Fix Table (1–9)

Why Integrate All Three?

• Numerology = Your personal vibration (Life Path, Name numbers, cycles).
• Astrology = Cosmic weather (planetary days, transits, Moon nakshatra).
• Feng Shui = Space alignment (Kua directions, entrances, desk orientation).

When numbers, timing, and space point in the same direction, results amplify: launches perform better, relationships smoothen, and routines stick.

Number → Planet → Weekday → Gem

Guided = test gently first; strong gems (4/7/8) need careful use.

Choosing Auspicious Timing (Muhurta)

1. Start with Numerology: Favourable Personal Year/Month/Day (Ch. 7). For launches: 1, 3, 5, 6, 8 are generally supportive.
2. Add Astrology: Prefer your planet’s weekday; avoid critical Mercury retro tasks that need flawless comms (if you follow such rules).
3. Use the Moon: Choose creative/social work on bright Moon days; introspection on 7‑vibe days.
4. Finalize Muhurta: Pick a time window where both your Personal Day and weekday planet support the goal.

Feng Shui & Kua: Using Your Space

Your Kua Number (Ch. 3) gives four good directions. Use them like this:

• Work desk: Face Success (Sheng Qi) or Growth (Fu Wei).
• Sleep: Head towards Health (Tian Yi) or Relationships (Yan Nian).
• Entrance: Keep well‑lit, clutter‑free; place brand name clearly.
• Wealth zone: Keep your wealth corner clean; add a plant or crystal and a simple intention card.

Remedies That Sync (Colors, Gems, Mantras)

Business & Money Alignment

• Name vibration: Keep brand name aligned to Life Path/industry (Ch. 4).
• Launch cadence: Use Personal Year 1/3/8 for big moves; 5 for trials; 6 for luxury collabs.
• Space zoning: Creative zone (3/5 themes) for content; operations/finance (4/8) near ledgers and inventory.
• Cash‑flow rituals: Saturday (8) budgeting; Friday (6) customer love & retention.

Health & Relationships

• Care cycles: Personal Year 6 for family focus; schedule key conversations on 2/6 days.
• Balance: If work is heavy (8), add 3/6 elements (art, beauty) to soften.
• Rest: Use 7‑days for retreats, meditation, and study.

Worked Example (End‑to‑End)

Profile (sample): Life Path 5, Destiny 1, Kua 6 (West Group).

1. Goal: Product launch for a luxury brand.
2. Numerology timing: Choose a Personal Month 3 or 6; launch on a Personal Day 5 or 6.
