Building and Interpreting a Numerology Chart
Find books and other resources that offer an overview of the major schools of numerology. There are many styles of numerology, including Pythagorean, Chaldean, and Biblical numerology. Most people learn one or a combination of these systems throughout the course of studying numerology. Reading a classic book on the subject, like Numerology by Hans Decoz and Tom Monte or Numerology and the Divine Triangle by Dusty Bunker, will help you grasp the basics. Because numerology is becoming increasingly popular, you can also find many online resources and websites to learn numerology basics.
Read about interpretations of the “building-block” numbers, from 1-9 . In order to build or understand a chart you will need to know the basic “vibrations” or associations with the numbers from 1 to 9. Each number is associated with a personality, or “vibration”, and the traits of each personality make up the rest of numerology. Numerology centers on 1-9 because all other numbers are built out of 1-9, as well as 0, which has no personality in numerology. The “master numbers,” which are 11, 22, and 33, are the only multiple-digit numbers that are often given their own personality. They are usually considered to have immense power.
Practice interpretation strategies for multiple digit numbers, like reducing. You will also need to learn how the numbers combine and reduce, as in the case of numbers like 134, which is reduced to 8 by the addition of the single-digit numbers (1 + 3 + 4 = 8). In some interpretations, the numbers 1, 3, and 4 influence the 8 because they are part of the calculation. Another example is 1,857, which reduces to 21 (1 + 8 + 5 + 7 = 21) and then 3 (2+1 = 3), meaning that 1, 2, 5, 7, 8 can all be said to influence the reduced total 3 due to their presence in the calculation.
Memorize the difference between the “core numbers” of a chart. Each chart consists of several numbers calculated based on a person’s name and birthdate, like life path, expression, and heart’s desire numbers. The value calculated for each core number is associated with the core number’s domain over someone’s life. For instance, the “life path number” is calculated from your full birthdate, and the personality of the number in that slot is said to describe the general flow of your life, from birth to death. Your “expression number” comes from all the letters in your name, calculated based on their position in the alphabet, whereas your “personality number” only adds up the consonants and a “heart’s desire number” comes from the vowels.
Use a calculator to build your own chart. A number of numerology sites include a web-based widget that allows you to calculate the “core numbers” for any name and birthdate you enter. Many of these will also give you a basic interpretation of each number, which you can compare to your own interpretations. Be sure that the website is one you trust. You will be asked to provide the full name and birthdate of the person whose chart you are building. Never use a calculator that offers “credit card” or “social security number” readings, as these are always scams to steal information.
Practice doing your own calculations. Once you know the basics of interpretation based on a calculator, learn how to build a chart from scratch. If you purchased a book on numerology, it will most likely contain a section on chart creation. A more visual way to learn the chart-building process is by watching online videos. Chart building only involves basic arithmetic, so even if you struggle with math you will most likely have no problem making a chart. Learning how to calculate your own chart will also give you a way to securely compose charts, without giving a website the name and birthdate of everyone you know.
Watch videos of numerologists interpreting charts. One of the best ways to get a handle on numerological interpretation quickly is to watch experienced practitioners work on charts. This will allow you to see the process from start to finish, and to focus on learning how numerologists go from a number to a full, complex interpretation. Listen for times where the numerologist explains their reasoning and take note of how they made a prediction based on multiple numbers. You can also practice by pausing the video once the numbers have been generated, crafting your interpretation, and then comparing the video creator’s interpretation with yours.
Practicing and Growing Your Skills
Sign up for a numerology e-newsletter. This is one way to slowly get familiar with the many different uses for numerology, in addition to the various ways to interpret numbers. Sign up for a newsletter from a reputable online numerology source maintained by a major author in the field like the ones on numerology.com and worldnumerology.com. These will typically give you a personal daily number based on your chart and the date. This will help you learn the vibrations of numbers.
Practice creating numerology charts for people you know. So long as you know their full name and birthdate, you can work on honing your numerological skills by crafting a chart. You can offer to do this for them if you plan to share the results with them, but you could also just make the chart at home and consider its meaning. Never give someone their numerology chart unless they agreed to let you practice with their information. Otherwise, they could feel like their privacy is being invaded.
Learn about more advanced numerology techniques. Once you have mastered the basics, you can start looking into the numerological practices that require more specialized skills. Try reading recently-published online articles about different kinds of charts to help you get an idea of the range of numerological possibilities. Advanced skills include comparing multiple people’s charts to determine their numerological compatibility, finding someone’s predicted skills from a chart, and comparing a chart to the current date to make a daily prediction.
Teach your friends how to make numerology charts. If you have friends interested in numerology, you can help establish your knowledge more firmly by asking if they’d like you to teach them a little bit about it. You can tell them about the “building block” numbers and show them how to make interpretations from a calculated chart. Be sure to be understanding if your friend struggles, and be respectful if they don’t want to keep learning. It most likely doesn’t mean they aren’t interested! Teaching a friend will also give you another person to talk to about your interest in numerology. As with any skill, being able to successfully explain it to another person is one of the best ways to make sure you know it cold.
Join a numerology group in your area. Ask about numerology groups at a local New Age or metaphysical store, or check a site like Meetup. You should also look for astrology groups that are be open to numerology, as you may find people who share your interest. If you can’t find anyone in your area who is interested in numerology, you can always use online discussion forums for numerological discussions.
