The following summarizes the beliefs of some modern numerologists.
The association of various meanings to specific numbers during the European Renaissance era, when numbers were intricately woven into musical, poetic, and architectural art, was far richer and more precise than the modern interpretations often offered today.
In contemporary numerology, numbers one to nine are typically used for character analysis and to predict trends. However, other numbers are believed to carry distinct vibrational influences that must also be considered. Furthermore, numerology is often connected with astrology and other systems, such as locational addresses. For example, "Seven Star Road" could carry a vibrational influence based on the number seven.
One:
One is the first number in the counting sequence, and as such, it is believed to have great power. Without the number one, our current numbering system would not exist, as it serves as the foundation for all other numbers. In many traditions, one is seen as the origin of all things, representing perfection, absoluteness, and deity, particularly in monotheistic faiths. People associated with the number one are often seen as dynamic, charismatic, and individualistic, but they may also display traits such as egotism, selfishness, and obstinacy, as they tend to favor independence and sometimes isolation.
Two:
Two represents duality, balance, and partnership. It is seen as the number of relationships, cooperation, and the union of opposites. As the first number to create balance, it reflects the need for harmony and the importance of connections with others. People associated with the number two are typically diplomatic, sensitive, and considerate, but they can also be indecisive, overly dependent, and prone to being easily swayed by others' opinions. Two is strongly linked to the ideas of peace, diplomacy, and collaboration.
Three:
Three is often considered the number of integration, bringing together the polarity of two into a harmonious whole. It is the number of creativity, expression, and communication. Three is associated with the mind, body, and spirit, and its energy can be seen in the three-dimensional nature of our world. The number is believed to be lucky and is often linked to fortune, particularly in the form of wealth. People influenced by the number three are often charismatic and expressive, with a flair for communication, drama, and humor. However, this number can also bring risk-taking tendencies and foolhardiness, and some numerologists view three as a magical, yet potentially demonic, number due to its association with imbalance in nature (e.g., no creatures walk on three legs).
Four:
Four is a number that denotes solidity, structure, and practicality. It is the first composite number, meaning it can be divided into factors other than itself and one (e.g., 2 × 2 = 4). In geometry, a tetrahedron is the simplest solid shape, with four sides, linking the number four to solid matter and the physical world, particularly Earth, which is bounded by four cardinal directions (North, South, East, West). Four also connects to time, as there are four seasons in a year and approximately four weeks in a month. In the Christian tradition, the life of Jesus is recorded in four Gospels, each representing one of the four classical elements: earth, water, fire, and air. Four is viewed as a number that symbolizes practical, grounded energy, but can also represent a composite personality shaped by various, often conflicting, influences. In Chinese numerology, however, the number four is considered unlucky due to its homophone with the word for "death."
Five:
Five is a number of dynamic change and personal freedom. It is deeply connected to the five senses and human sensual awareness, and is seen as a protector and explorer. People influenced by the number five tend to be adventurous, seeking new experiences and ideas, and are often capable of analytical thought and critical thinking. However, their constant pursuit of freedom can lead to overthinking and indecision. The number five is also linked to physical and mental health, as it governs our ability to think clearly and approach life with flexibility. People with strong five energy are often drawn to excitement and pushing the limits of experience.
Six:
Six is the number of harmony, beauty, and relationships. It is the quintessential number of love, nurturing, and care. People influenced by six are often highly empathetic, diplomatic, and relationship-oriented, with a strong inclination to create peace and balance in their environments. Six is also associated with material abundance, as it is considered a minor money number that can bring extra income. However, negative aspects of six can manifest as jealousy, perfectionism, and a tendency towards emotional volatility. The number six is also regarded as the "perfect" number in numerology, as the sum of its divisors (1, 2, and 3) equals six itself.
Seven:
Seven is regarded as the spiritual number, symbolizing the pursuit of enlightenment and inner wisdom. It is seen as a number that holds mysteries and hidden truths, often representing the quest for understanding beyond the material world. Seven is sacred in many traditions, such as the seven days of creation in Genesis, the seven days of the week, and the seven chakras in the human body. Those connected to the number seven are often spiritual seekers, with an intuitive and psychic nature. However, seven can also be associated with deceit, skepticism, and doubt if its energy is not directed toward higher awareness.
Eight:
Eight is the number of material success, karmic cycles, and personal growth through challenge. It is connected to the concept of karmic debts, representing the need to pay back past actions in this life and in previous ones. Eight is highly focused on achievement, particularly in the material realm, and people influenced by eight are often driven, hardworking, and goal-oriented. However, the number eight can bring hardships and reversals in life, as it demands that individuals face obstacles before enjoying rewards. In Chinese culture, eight is considered very lucky, symbolizing wealth and prosperity.
Nine:
Nine is the number of completion, transformation, and humanitarianism. It is often associated with global consciousness, empathy, and the desire to help others. People influenced by the number nine are often deeply compassionate and driven by a desire to make the world a better place. Nine is linked to change, invention, and growth, and it is the number of universal love and spiritual awakening. However, it can also signify endings, loss, and the need to let go of the past. It is seen as a number that carries the energy of compassion and selflessness, often marked by a sense of idealism and a need for spiritual fulfillment.
Ten:
Ten is a higher octave of one, marking the completion of a cycle and the beginning of a new phase. It is a number of achievement and transformation, often signaling that change is imminent. Ten is closely linked to cycles of time, such as the ten lunar months required for human gestation, and it holds significance in many spiritual traditions, including the ten sephiroth in Kabbalah. The number ten is also associated with completeness and is foundational to many number systems, such as the decimal system used in mathematics today.
Eleven:
Eleven is considered a master number and is linked to spiritual awakening and psychic abilities. It is a number of heightened intuition, open-mindedness, and spiritual insight. People influenced by the number eleven are often visionary, highly sensitive, and deeply attuned to the world beyond the material. However, this number can also bring challenges such as inner turmoil, emotional extremes, and betrayal from hidden enemies. Eleven holds great potential for spiritual growth but requires awareness and control to avoid negative energies.
Twelve:
Twelve is a number of wisdom and understanding. It is often associated with life experience and the ability to remain calm in the face of adversity. Twelve has great historical and spiritual significance, with twelve tribes of Israel, twelve disciples of Jesus, and twelve signs of the zodiac. It also marks the division of time into months and the cycle of the clock, which is divided into two sets of twelve hours. Twelve is seen as a number of completion, marking the end of childhood and the beginning of adulthood, and is often linked to universal harmony.
Thirteen:
Thirteen is the number of transformation and new beginnings. It is often regarded with fear in many cultures due to its association with the end of one cycle and the beginning of another. Thirteen is linked to the lunar cycle, as there are thirteen lunar months in a year, and is a significant number in various astrological systems. While some cultures see thirteen as unlucky, it is also considered a sacred number by others, symbolizing initiation and the need for personal growth and change. Thirteen is the number of those who are willing to break from tradition and create new paradigms.
Twenty-Two:
Twenty-two is another master number, and it is seen as the master builder of the numerology system. It combines the energies of two and four, representing practicality, strength, and transformation. People influenced by twenty-two are often highly ambitious and have the potential to achieve great success in material and spiritual realms. Twenty-two is associated with intuition, psychic abilities, and creative power, though it can also bring challenges such as self-doubt and over-sensitivity.
Zero:
Zero is a unique number that carries immense transformative power. It represents the void, the unknown, and the potential for infinite possibilities. Zero is linked to profound change and spiritual awakening, often signaling a new beginning or the dissolution of old patterns. While zero can bring about significant growth and transformation, it also carries with it the potential for extreme challenges and disruption if not carefully managed.

Number Sequences from the Angels Open or Close
by Doreen Virtue, Ph.D
The angels do their best to get our attention and to communicate with us. In this way, they help us heal our own lives. However, we often discount the signs they give us, writing them off as mere coincidences or our imagination. The angels say: "We can't write our messages to you in the sky. You've got to pay attention and believe when you see any patterns forming in your life — especially in response to any questions or prayers you've posed. When you hear the same song repeatedly or see the same number sequence, who do you think is behind this? Your angels, of course!"

Finding Your Personal Year Number Open or Close
Here is a formula for finding your Personal Year Number:
To find your Personal Year number, add the month and the day of your birth, plus the Universal Year number. (This formula will work for any year by using the universal year number of the current year and adding up those numbers accordingly, i.e., for 2018 the Universal Year number is 11=2; 2+1+8=11=2)
For example, someone born on May 15 finds his or her Personal Year number by adding 5 (May) plus 6 (the fifteenth day) plus 2 (2018) to arrive at a Personal Year number of 13 ( 5+6+2=13), which is reduced to 4.

If you’re interested in numerology then you know that numerology would say your house number exerts a huge influence on you, just like your birth number. But what about our phone numbers? We can say we choose the day we incarnate in order to experience a certain life path and its lessons. The same goes for where we live. Many people believe that houses ‘choose’ their occupants. The energy of a house contains certain experiences and events and the house either wants you to experience that energy – or not. So, where does this leave our phone numbers which are after all, usually randomly assigned by the phone company. This is where synchronicity comes in. Our phone numbers can often reflect our communication energy or what we need to know about communication style. Often spooky synchroncities can be revealed when we work out our phone’s ‘communication number’ as this can often be the same as our birth or life-path number.

Humans have been trying to predict the future for centuries. After all, having the ability to understand what we can expect in the year or years to come can help us to prepare. Even 500 years later, people still look to the predictions of the 16th-century prophet, Nostradamus, and try to interpret what his readings meant. The British psychic, Craig Hamilton-Parker, recently interpreted Nostradamus’ writings, saying that in 2020 there will be war in the Middle East, and Trump will be re-elected for a second term; however, there will be also be an assassination attempt. Whether these events actually come to pass remains to be seen, one of the most interesting ways of making predictions about the future is by applying numerology. It is something you can do at home and make decisions on your life as you move into 2020.
