Numbers Meanings
Numerology
What good is this bit of divinatory calculation associating
numbers to names and birth dates if we do not have an oracular
vocabulary which can give symbolic meaning and nuance to the
number series? Luckily, modern numerology has inherited from
the ancient tradition of numbers a key to interpreting the
meaning of numbers.
As pointed out above, modern
numerology only possesses a divinatory tradition for the first
nine numbers. Each of these nine numbers has its own unique
divinatory significance. The following table gives the typical
symbolic correspondences for these numbers.
The Nine Numbers of Modern
Numerology
Number Divinatory Meaning
1 Initiative, independence,
forcefulness (masculine number)
2 Diplomacy, tact, attention to detail (feminine number)
3 Spiritual, ambition, self-expression, easy success, lucky
4 Material, labor, routine work with little monetary compensation,
unlucky
5 Imagination, inventive genius, charm, restlessness, adventurous
6 Tenacity, conscientiousness, success by working with another,
domestic
7 Mysticism, magick, occultism, isolation, poets and dreamers;
to be misunderstood by one’s associates
8 Judgment, reason, organization, financial success
9 Sympathy, generosity; dramatic, artistic talent (higher
octave—teacher, master)
These nine basic meanings
have a pattern to their symbolism. The first eight numbers
form four pairs of contrasts, while the ninth number sums
up and balances these four opposite couplings. The odd numbers
1, 3, 5, and 7 are celestial in nature, while the even numbers
2, 4, 6, and 8 are terrestrial. The number 9 counterbalances
the four spiritual odd and the four earthly even numbers.
