Introduction As long as there have been numbers, there have been Numerology systems. How can the numbers that appear in our lives not be interwoven with our destiny in one way or another? Whether the numbers we find in our travels have any significance or not, it's hard to argue that they have no rele r elevance vance at a t all. all . All these these num numbers ber s must must mean somethin something. g. This book teaches you a simple to use but highly effective numerology system that you can perform on anyone anyone at any time. time. Hopefu Hop efull lly y by the the time you have have finished this book bo ok you will have lear l earned ned an entertaining new skill that you will love to show people and that people will enjoy having done for them. Like all my books this a very practical tutorial. Follow the book to the end, do the exercises, commit the ideas to memory and work it through. By the end of the book you will be able to give people extremely interesting numerology readings at the drop of a hat. Keep at it and stay focused, this book is about learning a new skill and with any luck you'll hardly ever have to refer back to it again.

The Method The numerology system outlined in this book is based on the Lo Shu Square. The Lo Shu Square has  been aroun around for centu centuries, ries, and is in fact a 3 X 3 magic magic square. square. A magic square square is a symm symmetrical number grid whose numbers add up to the same number in all directions, both vertically and diagon dia gonall ally y. This num number is known known as the the square' s quare'ss 'm ' magic number number'.'. In the the case cas e of o f the the Lo Shu Square Square and the numbers from 1 to 9, the Lo Shu Square's magic number is 15. Here is the Lo Shu Magic Square. Add up the numbers in any direction and you will find they always add up to 15.

When we give a numerology reading for someone we will create a blank grid and fill it with a variety of num numbers ber s taken from their their personal per sonal life li fe such as their their birth bir thdate, date, number numberss that they they have noticed in

their lifetime and also their mobile telephone number. We use the Lo Shu Magic Square as a reference so we know know where to put these these num numbers ber s on o n the the grid. gri d. By taking the the number numberss they were wer e born b orn with, w ith, the the numbers they have lived with and their most recent phone number we can see how a person's numbers have changed over the years and create some kind of meaning from this to give a reading. Most numerology systems focus exclusively on a persons date of birth for use in a reading, and I have always felt that this was a somewhat static approach. By using numbers from the past to the present e can get a much better idea of how certain numbers have flowed through someone's life. We can see the numbers that someone was born with, the numbers that have influenced them, and the numbers that are in the persons life right now. This gives us a lot of scope for comparison during the reading and enables us to create interesting discussions about the person's journey - how it started, where it's  been and and where it's headed.

Drawing The Lo Shu Magic Square As the numerology system taught in this book uses the Lo Shu Magic Square as its basis, the first thing you've you've got to learn lear n is how to draw d raw this this square from mem memory ory.. It's pretty easy, and it's a fun thing thing to teach people while you're giving someone a numerology reading for the first time. Most people find it quite intriguing. First, draw a naughts and crosses / tic tac toe grid on a piece of paper. Then, fill in the numbers one and two as follows:

Then fill in the numbers 3 to 7, remembering the shape:

Then add the 8 and the 9, which follow the same pattern as the 1 and the 2, but shifted to the left.

That's it! It couldn't be simpler. Try drawing a few Lo Shu Squares from memory, it won't take long and you should have it down within a couple of tries.  Now let's move move on to to giving giving the the readin readi ng itself. itself.

The Readin Reading g We are going to be creating three grids when we come to give a reading for someone, so of course you're going to need a pen and paper. When you start the reading I suggest you first write the person's name at the top of the paper, and then draw a Lo Shu Magic Square in the top right hand corner. Don't draw it too big as this is only going to be your reference for where to put the person's numbers. Drawing the Lo Shu Magic Square is an interesting way to start a reading, and talking about the square and it's magical properties can help put people at ease and help you get to know them a little. You'd be surprised how many people never forget how to draw a magic square once you've shown them how. The first grid will be created using numbers from the person's birthdate. The second will use numbers that have occurred in their life, and the last grid will use their most recent set of numbers - those from their mobile phone number. By drawing three grids we can see how someone's numbers started in their life and how they have  progressed to reach the the present present day. day. This This gives a much much more interesting interesting reading readi ng than than simply simply giving giving a reading based on a person's birthdate and has the added bonus of bringing the reading right up to the  present mom moment ent,, someth something ing sorely sorel y lacking lacking in most most num numerology erology system systems. s. People lik li ke to talk talk about about th their  past but but th they also want to know know what's what's happening happening right right now. now. This This system gives them that that inform information ation.. Grid One - Birthdate

The first grid we're going to create is based around the person's birthdate. Draw an empty 3 X 3 grid and ask for the person's date of birth. We are going to write this down in full underneath the first empty grid using numbers only. For instance if you met someone whose birthday was the 2nd of October 1967 you would write: 2 10 1967 Then, ignoring the zeros, we take each number from the birthdate in order from left to right and write them in on the blank square, using the Lo Shu Magic Square we drew at the start as a reference for here each e ach num number needs to go. For instance, the first num number in the the pers p erson's on's bir b irth thdate date is i s the num number 2 and in i n the the Lo Shu Magic Magic Square the number 2 is in the top right corner, so on our blank grid we write the number 2 in the top righ ri ghtt corner cor ner thus: thus:

The next number in the person's birthdate is a 1, and we can see from looking at the Lo Shu Magic Square that number one's go in the bottom middle section like so:

The next number is a zero. In numerology we ignore zeros. So we move on to the next 1 in the  person's birth bir thdate, date, and and write wri te th that alongside alongside the previous one one like this: this:

Keeping this method in mind, we then fill in the 9, 6 and 7, continuing to use the Lo Shu Magic Square as our reference so we end up with a grid, created entirely from someone's birthdate, that looks something like this:

So we have our first square, but what does it mean? Let's talk about arrows.

The Arrow Arrowss Of O f Pythagoras P ythagoras Before we even look at what the numbers on the chart mean, we can see that some rows on our first grid are filled with numbers and some rows are empty - a bit like a game in progress of Tic Tac Toe or Naughts And Crosses - except instead of X's and O's we're looking at numbers. We can see that there's an empty column on the left hand side, and a full column of numbers on the right hand side. Whenever we see a column or row of numbers we call it a positive arrow, and when e see an empty column or row we call it a negative arrow. We draw normal arrows to indicate  positive arrows ar rows and dotted dotted arrows to indicate negat negative ive arrows. arr ows. The Arrow Columns

The columns indicate how someone leads their life and are named from left to right: Thought, Will and Outloo Outlook  k 

* TOP TIP: The first letters of the arrow column names - Thought, Will and Outlook - spell the word 'TWO' so this makes remembering the column meanings very easy. When you first start giving  readings it may help you to write the word 'TWO' under each grid, one letter per column. When a column is full of numbers (as in the example with the rightmost column being filled with the numbers 2, 7 and 6) we call this a positive arrow and say that the person has an abundance of that quality. So with a third column full of numbers this creates the Arrow Of Outlook, and we draw an arrow on our our grid like l ike so to denote denote its presence: pr esence:

Underneath the grid we write '+ Outlook' to show that the person has a positive arrow through the outlook column. So in this example the Arrow Of Outlook shows that the person born with these numbers could have a really real ly positive attitude attitude towards life in general. general. We can c an also als o see s ee in the example example that that the left hand column column is completely empty, empty, so this this creates cre ates a negative arrow. So we draw a dotted line through the empty left hand column to denote a negative arrow lik li ke so:

This person has a negative Arrow Of Thought, so instead of being a 'thinking things through' kind of  person he he is the opposite - more more spontaneous spontaneous and and tends tends to act before before think thinking ing.. To show this we write '- Thought' under the grid to show the person has a negative arrow through the Thought column. As you can see from this example, just because someone has a negative arrow doesn't mean it's necessarily a bad thing, just a different type of character trait. There's nothing wrong with being a think thinker er and there's nothing nothing wrong with wi th being spontaneous! spontaneous! One should should be carefu car efull when giving a reading not to look at these negative arrows as all bad. We are all different and our strengths usually outweigh our weaknesses. By drawing the arrows through the columns and writing what they mean underneath each grid we will

leave people with numerology charts that still make sense many years later. The Arrow Rows

The grid rows indicates someone's natural attributes and are named from top to bottom: Head, Heart and Action

* TOP TIP: Remembering that the top line is the head, the middle the heart and action is the bottom row is as easy as imagining a person standing next to the grid. When you first start you might find that drawing a type of stick man made from a circle, a heart shape and the letter 'A' next to the grid will help you remember that the top is the head, the middle is the heart and the bottom is the legs - as in the orld of action and and 'doing 'doi ng'' in i n the the real world. w orld.

As before with the columns, when a row is full of numbers we call this a positive arrow. Our original example doesn't have a full or empty row, so just for now let's take away the 7 and replace it with a 6.  Now we now get two arrows arrow s - one positive and one one negative: negative:

Underneath the grid we write '+ Head' to show that the person has a positive arrow through the head row. So in this example the Head Arrow shows that the person was born with numbers that suggest someone someone who is rather rather clever. The empty middle row creates a negative arrow, and we draw a dotted line through it as before. This  person has has a negative negative Arrow Of Heart, Heart, so instead instead of being a romant romantic ic he is the the opposite - rath ra ther er matter of fact when it comes to love. To show this we would write '- Heart' under the grid to show the person has a negative arrow through the Heart column.

Arrow Arrow Diagonals Dia gonals

There are only two diagonal arrows. The Arrow Of Willpower runs from bottom left to top right:

The Arrow Of Spiritu Spiri tuali ality ty runs runs from top top left l eft to bottom right: right:

A positive Arrow Of Willpower indicates someone with an extremely forceful character who usually gets what he wants. A negative Arrow Of Willpower shows just the opposite, someone who is  possibly  possib ly overly shy shy and and introverted. introverted. A positive Arrow Of Spirituality indicates someone who is somewhat enlightened and in touch with the universe to a greater extent than most people. A negative Arrow Of Spirituality shows the opposite, someone who is extremely matter of fact and practical, yet misses out on thoughts of higher things. * TOP TIP: The Arrow Of Willpower goes UP the grid, like someone climbing the stairs of the grid to reach heaven - this can remind us that the arrow that moves UP the grid denotes WILLPOWER. * TOP TIP: The Arrow Of Spirituality comes DOWN the grid, an arrow from the heavens - this can remind us that the arrow that comes DOWN the grid from the skies denotes SPIRITUALITY.

The Arrow Arrowss Of O f Pythagoras P ythagoras Recap  Now let's review revi ew all al l eight eight arrows we've w e've learned le arned about about so far. far. Don't Don't forget, forget, the the + plusses denote denote  positive arrows ar rows and the the - minu minuses ses denote negat negative ive arrows. arr ows. The The arrows ar rows are all a ll pretty self-explanatory self-explanatory,, and a negative negative arrow ar row is simply the the opposite opposi te of the the positive posi tive arrow. It couldn't be simpler. Columns - Thought, Will & Outlook 

Does the person think things through, or get things done through sheer determination? A person who  plans ahead ahead doesn't always have have the the willpow wil lpower er to see thing thingss throug through h to their their conclusion, conclusion, even if they they do have a positive outlook on life! A positive outlook alone won't get you too far. Arrow Of Thought 4,3,8 + Thoughtful / Thinks things through - Spontaneous Spontaneous / Act now, think think later  Arrow Of Will 9,5,1 + Someone who likes l ikes to get what they they want wa nt - A more passive individual, less likely to speak up for themselves Arrow Of Outlook 2,7,6 + A person with a positive, open attitude - Someone Someone with a more more closed, cl osed, in i nward war d view Rows - Head, Heart and Body

Does the person think with his head or his heart - or is he more tactile? A person who thinks with his head is very different to someone whose life is ruled by his heart - and someone who thinks with his  body is far more more likely li kely to act on physical physical impulse impulse than than either either of those those two. Head Hea d Arrow Arrow 4,9,2 + A clever person, a thinker  - A less thinking type, possibly more emotionally driven Heart Arrow 3,5,7 + A person with a big heart, a dreamer, romantic - Someone more practical, possibly more thought driven Body Arrow 8,1,6 + A physical physical person per son

- A less physical person Diagonals

The diagon dia gonals als reflect refle ct sheer brute force on the the one o ne hand hand and the enligh enli ghtened tened soul on o n the the oth o ther, er, but you can have too much of a good thing! Arrow Of Willpower 8,5,2 + Serious amounts of willpower  - Not much much willpowe wil lpowerr at all Arrow Of Spirituality 4,5,6 + A rather rather spiritual spi ritual person, could be overly overl y so - The opposite, practical and matter of fact but perhaps lacking something

 Now you've you've famili familiaris arised ed yoursel yourselff with the the arrows arrow s that that cross the the Lo Lo Shu Shu Square Square let's just look once once again at the easiest way to remember all of this. If you can learn to draw your grid so it looks like this:

- then you're already there. The man on the left helps you remember the rows are Head, Heart and Action and the word 'TWO' reminds you that the columns are Thought, Will and Outlook. Practice drawing empty grids like this with the stick man and the word 'TWO'. Once you've learned how to do that, try and write in every arrow with its meaning as well, not forgetting the diagonals, and especially not forgetting that there are negative as well as positive arrows. Within no time you'll be able abl e to remember remember all of this this with wi thout out even having to to use the the memory memory aids. ai ds. But But you may may still stil l want wa nt to to draw the stick man and the other word 'TWO', just because they actually look quite interesting!

Arrow Examples Here are some drawn examples for us to practice our arrow reading skills on. What can we say about this first example?

In this example we can see a positive arrow going down the middle column, and a negative arrow going down the right hand column. The positive arrow is the Arrow Of Will and the negative arrow is the Arrow Of Outlook. So this shows someone who has the willpower but struggles to find ways of making this work in the real world because of his less than positive outlook. Here's another example. What can we say about this person's arrows?

In this this exam e xample ple there there is only one negative negative arrow arr ow going diagon dia gonall ally y from top top left l eft to bottom righ ri ght, t, the Arrow Of Willpower. As it is a negative arrow this shows that the person struggles with getting what he wants when he wants it. And another example. What about this grid?

In this example we have two positive arrows, the Arrow Of Will from top to bottom and the Heart Arrow from left to right. So we have someone who is able to get things done but at the same time shows great compassion - this person gets what he wants by helping others at the same time. You may may have noticed that that when w hen there there are a re two arro a rrows ws I have com co mbined their their meanings eanings when w hen I talk talk about them. For instance 'You have the willpower (shown by the Arrow of Willpower) but sometimes struggle because of your negative outlook (shown by a negative Arrow Of Outlook)'. The idea of comparing traits like this is very useful.

Grid And Arrow Arrow Exercises Exercises See if you can give readings for these three grids by finding their arrows. Don't forget to remember the drawing of the man and the number written under the grid - this will help jog your memory. Exercise One:

Exercise Two:

Exerci Exercise se Three:

There now follows ten birth dates for you to practice your grid making and arrow reading skills on. Firstly, start with a fresh sheet of paper and see if you can create a Lo Shu Magic Square from memory, as you were taught at the start of this book. Then take each of the following birth dates one at a time, writing each of them into a new grid before seeing which arrows (if any) each one has. Then, using what you have learned about the meanings of the arrows in the previous chapters, see if you can come up with something different to say for each grid. If you find that some of the grids have more than one arrow, compare the arrows and describe how these different traits either compliment or distract from one another. What can you say about people born on these dates? 1. 21st November 1953 2. 9th February 1982 3. 25th July 1993 4. 27th June 1972

5. 14th April April 1991 6. 19th May 1958 7. 6th December 1945 8. 18th October 1949 9. 3rd January 1975 10. 5th August 1996

Grid Two - Lucky numbers The second grid we create is going to be identical to the first one but instead of using a birthdate we are going to use numbers that have either occurred frequently in someone's life or have special significance. For instance, some people have lucky numbers that they've picked up over the years. Others may have noticed that certain numbers have cropped up time and time again in their lives. You may find people that haven't noticed any patterns at all with the numbers in their lives - you may have to give these  people a little l ittle help help in coming coming up with some some personal num numbers. We need a handful of numbers to play with, so as an example here are the numbers I would offer someone if they were to ask me which numbers had played a significant part in my life: 36 - because it was my school number at two different schools completely by chance 28 - because it was my house number during a particularly happy part of my childhood 14 - because it's my house number at the moment I think it's important to try and use numbers that people can easily recall. It's surprising how many interesting interesti ng num numbers people peop le can come up with wi th after after giving them them a little li ttle encouragement, encouragement, even if at a t first they can't think of any. Here are three questions you can ask to extract some interesting numbers from people: 1. Do you have a lucky number? 2. Do you have any numbers that have cropped up in your life repeatedly? 3. Can you recall any house numbers that you've lived at where you were particularly happy? This is usually enough to get a handful of numbers from someone. We are aiming to get about 5 or 6 single numbers in total, so in the example I gave of 36, 28 and 14 we have the single digits 362814 hich are plenty to work with - it's about the same amount of numbers you get when you use someone's birth date. If I put put these these num numbers on the the second s econd grid, grid , using the the Lo Shu Square Square for reference r eference as usual, usual, we get a grid that looks like this:

Hopefully by now you will easily be able to spot arrows on the grid. Straight away we can see there are two positive arrows on this grid, the Arrow Of Thought and the Action Arrow. As with the first grid, we draw in the the two arrow a rrowss - this this time time they're they're both positive so are a re both solid lines and not dotted dotted - and we then write the names of these underneath this second grid like so: + Thought + Action Unlike the first grid that we created from a birth date, this grid is created from numbers accumulated over a lifet li fetim ime. e. The first grid shows what w hat people were we re born bor n with, with, but th this second grid shows w hat they they have actu ac tuall ally y done and achieved achie ved and how life l ife has changed changed and moulde moulded d them. them. By comparing the the first grid with the second grid we can make all kinds of interesting comparisons. The Arrow Of Thoug Thought ht shows shows someone someone who w ho has spent sp ent their their life li fe doing doi ng a lot l ot of thinking, thinking, and the the Action Actio n Arrow shows that a lot of action has taken place - the person has drive. So during their life this  person has has thoug thought ht thing thingss throug through h and put put thin thing gs into practice. practice.

Comparing Grids One And Two

Let's compare the first grid with the second grid:

Let's look at the differences in the arrows of these two grids: First grid - birth date - Thought + Outloo Outlook  k  Second grid - lucky numbers + Thought + Action By comparing the two grids we can make some comparisons already: The first grid has a negative Arrow Of Thought, yet the second grid has a positive Arrow Of Thought. Perhaps early in life the person was somewhat thoughtless with their head in the clouds, but as their life li fe progresse pro gressed d they engag engaged ed their their mind a lot more and a nd put a lot more thoug thought ht into into what w hat they they were wer e doing? The first grid has a positive Arrow Of Outlook, but in the second has a positive Action Arrow instead. Could it be that the person has become jaded as they have moved through life, yet have managed to take serious action in the physical world to make things happen against all odds? I'm sure sure you can see what I'm doing here here.. By having a grid from the the past and a nd a grid gri d from someone's someone's ongoing life you can make all kinds of great comparisons. If you were like this (talking about first grid) then how did you come to be like this now (talking about second grid)? If you had these kinds of  problem  proble ms throug through h your your life (second (sec ond grid), grid), where w here did they they stem stem from (first grid) grid)??

You will find find that that some some arrows arr ows appear twice. twi ce. Some Some will wi ll disappea d isappear. r. Negat Negative ive arrow a rrowss will w ill turn turn into into  positive ones and vice-versa. With With only two grids grids and a nd using using the the arrows alone al one you you have have a hug huge amoun amountt to talk about with the person you're giving the reading to. Let's get on to creating the third grid to bring the reading right up to date.

Grid Three - Mobile phone number The third grid we create is going to be identical to the first two but this time we are going to use numbers from the person's mobile phone number. A person's mobile number is usually the most current num number in their life, l ife, and a nd sometimes sometimes people peopl e go to great leng le ngth thss to choose a number number they they like. li ke. At other times it's entirely random but it really doesn't matter - what matters is that you have an extremely recent and relevant number to make a third grid with. This third grid is all about 'now'. As an example, here is a fictitious phone number - 07239 326 459 We ignore the first part of the number 07239 as this is common to the entire mobile network. We concentrate on the last part of the mobile number which in this case is 326 459. We draw a grid like the other two and put these numbers into it which looks like this:

Once again we check to see if there are any arrows in this grid, and we find a diagonal arrow from top left to bottom right - the Arrow Of Spirituality, and an arrow across the top of the grid - the Head Arrow. Once again we draw the arrows on the grid - both solid lines - and write their meaning underneath the grid like so: + Head + Spirit The Arrow Of Spirituality in this grid shows spiritual influence, and the Head Arrow suggest that the  person has has a lot of ment mental al capacity capac ity.. Don't Don't forget forget that that th these arrows arr ows have appeared using the the most most current number in the person's life. These arrows are about the present moment, and the person may or  may not feel their influence. Perhaps these two arrows are an indication that the person should follow their their more spiri s piritu tual al pursuits? pursuits? Or could c ould it be that their their creative crea tive ideas idea s are ar e about to bear fruit, represent repres ented ed by the the Head Arrow? Arr ow? Dealing Deali ng with wi th the the third third grid is a lot l ot more more vague, yet at the the sam s amee time more more interesting than than the the oth o ther er two. We can see where the person has been in the previous two grids, but the arrows in the third grid could show where the person is headed, whether they realise it or not.

Comparing The Arrows On All Three Grids We've already compared the first two grids together, so now let's introduce the third and look at them all at the same time - the birth date grid, the lucky number grid and the mobile number grid. By this  point our three three grids grids look l ook like like this, this, and in this this pictu pi cture re we can c an see th the arrow names ames written wr itten under under each grid for the first time:

 Now we have three three grids and six sets sets of arrows to compare. compare. It won't won't always be lik li ke this this - som s ometim etimes es you will wil l have fewer arrow a rrows, s, and very ver y occasionally you may may have have more. Regardless, you've you've still got a lot to go on, and we haven't even begun to to discuss di scuss the the number numberss themsel themselves ves yet! Let's look at the arrows again so we can easily compare them: Grid One - Birthdate - Thought + Outloo Outlook  k  Grid Two - Lucky numbers + Thought + Action Grid Three - Mobile phone number + Head + Spirit

We're looking for patterns across the grids, and the first thing I notice is the pattern - Thought / + Thought / + Head. Of course there is a correlation between 'Thought' and 'Head' so to me this suggests that we have someone that throughout their life has become more and more cerebral. Initially, according to the - Thought, they were somewhat thoughtless, didn't think things through too much, but

during their life this changed and they became more thoughtful even careful. Ending the last grid with + Head shows someone who has become cleverer, and it looks like this has happened over time ith patience they have learned a lot and even if they don't feel like that right now, it could be that they are destined to do more with their intellect. This person also started out with a very positive outlook, and it could be that this positive approach never really left them, even though + Outlook only appears in the first grid. The only negative arrow Thought appeared in the first grid, this is also interesting as they have usually managed to be positive throughout their life. Perhaps it's that same positive outlook going running through their life from an early earl y age? age? In the second grid we have + Action. This signifies a lot of effort, so it appears that during their life up to now they've been getting busy. But when we look at the third grid we appear to be at a more spiritual juncture because of the + Spirit. Perhaps the person is about to enter a different phase of their life? They may not be aware of it, but perhaps the numbers are on to something? Who knows? It will all become apparent when you start to give readings to real people and you will find that they are using extremely forthcoming in helping you decipher the arrows. Three Grid Exercises

Here are some practice exercises featuring three grids in each. Don't forget the leftmost grid is the  birth date date grid, the the middle middle one one the the lucky lucky num number grid, and the the right rightm most grid grid is i s the the mobile mobile num number grid. See if you can give a reading out loud for each of these sets. Three Grid Exercise 1:

 Now you've you've had practice at reading three three grids at a time, time, see if you can create th the followin followi ng readings readings from scratch using your memory only to draw the Lo Shu Square, fill in the grids and spot the arrows! 1. Birthdate: 29th November 1972 - Lucky numbers: 20, 3, 99 - Mobile number 754 221 2. Birthdate: 5th May - Lucky numbers: 18, 8, 61 - Mobile number 554 769 3. Birthdate: 7th September - Lucky numbers: 3, 69, 4 - Mobile number 663 648 4. Birthdate 18th August - Lucky numbers: 44, 128, 16 - Mobile number 884 217 5. Birthdate 12th December - Lucky numbers: 22, 11, 8 - Mobile number 339 772

Number Meanings Meaning s By this point in the book you should know how to make a Magic Lo Shu Square, how to create three types of grids and how to read the arrows on each grid. Now we come to the numbers themselves. As you are probably aware, the numbers in numerology each have their own meaning. Here is a very  brief list lis t of the the meanin meaning g of each number. umber. Don't Don't worry worr y about memorisi emorising ng this this for now, now, you'll you'll pick it up up as you go. 1. Beginnings 2. Cooperation 3. Expansion 4. Security 5. Activity 6. Communication 7. Spiritu Spiri tuality ality 8. Inspiration 9. Changes 10. Success  Note: These These are also a lso the the num number meanin meanings gs I explain in my book Cartomancy - Fortune Telling With Playing Cards and Cards and once you've learned the meanings of the numbers you're halfway to being able to give incredibly in-depth playing card readings. Knowing something about numerology is very useful hen it comes to lear l earning ning other systems. systems. The more more of a num number on a perso pe rson's n's grid you can see, the the more of o f an influence influence that that num number has. It's fairly common to get two of the same numbers on a grid, slightly less with three and you almost never get four of the same number on a grid. However, when you look at all three grids at the same time it's a different matter - you can find that some numbers are really abundant and you may have four, five or even six of the same number across all grids. One of the best things about having all the numbers laid out in three grids is it only takes a glance to see which numbers repeat and which numbers never appear at all - a quick scan and you can easily see which w hich squares are dense and which which squares are vacant. vacant. To get a better grip on all of this we're going to write the numbers 1 to 9 in a separate column underneath these grids. This will enable us to easily compare the numbers in a simple list. Here is our example set of three grids again:

So we go through, looking at the numbers from one to ten, writing the number in a different row each time we see it. Do the 1's first, then the 2's, and repeat for the other numbers. So for our example we end up with a list like this: 111 111 222 33 44 5 666 7 8 99 We can now easily see which numbers repeat the most - and least. We have three each of 1, 2 and 6 and only one each of 5, 7 and 8. If we write the number meanings alongside each column we get this: 111 Beginnings 222 Cooperation 33 Expansion 44 Security 5 Activity 666 Communication 7 Spiritu Spiri tuality ality 8 Inspiration 99 Changes So we can see that the most abundant numbers in this person's life refer to beginnings, cooperation and commun communica ication. tion. We We can c an also als o see s ee that that the num numbers ber s that refer to activity acti vity,, spir s pirituality ituality and inspiratio inspi ration n

are the the ones o nes most lacking. There isn't one number that's most dominant, and there's no number that's missing - all the numbers from one to nine are represented. Sometimes you will find that a number is completely missing, and at other times one number will be more prevalent than the others. Here's what the completed chart looks like:

What can we say about it all? Here's a few paragraphs that you could say to explain these grids to someone. Notice how I not only talk about the the numbers numbers that that appear app ear the the most and the least, lea st, but also als o refer back to the grids to see if the numbers appear in all of the grids, or just some of the grids. You might have a lot of one number in the first two grids and none in the third, for instance. By doing this

you can talk about which period of a person's life the numbers have had the most influence. "We can see from the three grids we've created for you that there are a lot of ones, twos and sixes. Ones are all to do with beginnings and starting new ventures and they appear in the first and second grids, so you've had to start over quite a few times in your life. The number two appears in every single grid and as it's all to do with cooperation this has been an important influence in your life and ill continue to be so - whether you know it or not, cooperation is important for you. The fact that there are three sixes with one in each grid isn't that surprising when you consider that this is the number of communication, which goes hand in hand with cooperation. You may not be aware of these influences, influences, I am just telling telli ng you what I see. "We can also note that there's only one five, seven and eight in the grid. As the five has appeared in your your most current curre nt grid grid this this signifies that that you'r you'ree currently c urrently or about a bout to be going through through a lot l ot more more activity than you have been used to in the past - things are going to start moving, or have already started. With the seven only appearing once in the first grid this would suggest that you started out a lot more spiritual than you later came to be - perhaps you've became jaded over the years? It also looks loo ks like li ke that that you were wer e most inspired inspi red leading lea ding up to the the pres p resent ent mom moment ent - I'm not not sayin sa ying g that that all al l inspiration is going to leave you, but perhaps it suggests you need less inspiration and more application in the future. Having that solitary eight in the centre grid is interesting, perhaps you find inspiratio inspi ration n a fleeting flee ting thing thing?? "We'vee looked "We'v l ooked the num numbers you have have the the most and least le ast of, so s o lets l ets take a quick look loo k at the the number numberss that are a normalising influence in your life, the most common - not too many, not too few. I see here that that the num number three three is in the last las t two grids. gri ds. This means means expan e xpansio sion n - things things have been taking shape shape and are growing now and into the future. The number four is also in these last two grids and four is the number of security, so as things grow they become more secure. This could be all part of the same thing and might show that as plans take shape they give you a firmer footing for the future. The only num number that that appear app earss once o nce in the first firs t grid and once in i n the the third grid is the the number number nine nine - the the number number of change. So there were big changes afoot in your life when you were very young, and you're either going through some big changes now or will be in the near future, and they might have some relevance to your past or be connected in some way." Of course when you are giving a reading this won't just be a one-way conversation, and these few  paragraphs cannot cannot truly truly convey convey the the way a reading readi ng goes - a reading is never completely completely one one sided, nor should it be. As you go through the numbers slowly and deliberately you will be creating a dialogue ith the person whose numbers you are reading and they will be able to fill in many of the gaps themselves. Let the person speak, and see what else they come up with that could shed some light on the numbers - they know their own lives a lot better than you do, so it is up to you to guide them through the reading you are giving them, as opposed to simply telling them what the numbers mean as if it was all cast in stone. You need to get a conversation going, and talk about what it all means  between the the two two of you. you.

Learning The Numbers I've shown you how to give a reading now, using the simplest meanings for the numbers. The biggest  problem  proble m for most most people is in i n actually actually learning what the the num numbers bers mean. mean. It shouldn't shouldn't be difficu difficult lt given given that there are only nine numbers, yet for one reason or another getting the meanings of the numbers to actually stick in the mind is sometimes harder than it looks. The following section is taken directly, with a few tweaks here and there, from the numerology section of my Cartomancy book. It's fairly exhaustive and as far as I am aware it is one of the simplest framew frameworks orks to under understand stand and rem re member ember what all al l the the number numberss mean. If you you have alrea al ready dy read the the Cartomancy book then hopefully you will already have learned what all the numbers mean and are ready to go! If not then the following text should hopefully get you up and running in no time. Even though numerology readings such as the one described in this book ignore the zero, I have included the numbers one through ten in the next section so you can learn the full cycle of the numbers. Knowing what the number ten signifies will stand you in good stead should you learn some other reading systems in the future. The numbers one to ten each have their own significance yet for many people remembering what they each signify can be a real chore - numbers can appear abstract and devoid of meaning and on their own they they aren't particularly evocative. evo cative. We need to learn to get 'visual' with our numbers and aim to connect as much meaning to them as  possible.  possib le. When When you you see a num number you need a whole whole array arr ay of ideas, concepts and images images to to come come to mind. If you know nothing about numerology then it's probably the case that when you see a number it's just that - a number. We need to get creative with our visualising so we can actually learn, with practice, hat the numbers mean. Here are the basic meanings of the numbers one through ten: 1. Beginnings 2. Cooperation 3. Expansion 4. Security 5. Activity 6. Communication 7. Spiritu Spiri tuality ality 8. Inspiration 9. Changes 10. Success

The numbers one to ten go through a cycle and the 10 at the end is in many ways similar to the 1 at the start - the 10 is the realisation of all that the 1 can be. If you think of all the numbers going around in a  big circle startin s tarting g and ending ending on the the 1 like like a clock you you get the the idea - the ten ten becomes becomes a one again again and and the cycle repeats. This is analogous to the 'life cycle' that we all go through. Think about this little story for a moment. We all begin alone (1) we couple up (2) and bring life into the world (3) before we make a home with four walls (4). There is much activity as the child grows (5) and before long the child learns to communicate (6) and ask big questions about the world around him (7). Finally he is inspired to go out into the world (8) make a difference (9) and be successful (10). He's now alone (1) and the cycle can begin again. By thinking of the numbers in this way it also gives us the feeling of progression - higher numbers are the end of the cycle and lower numbers the start of the cycle. This is very useful in readings. Let me go through that story again in greater detail. This whole story is designed so that you can remember the meanings of the numbers quickly and easily. Alone - Beginnings 1 The Power Of One - I Stand Alone We have to start somewhere, and with a blank canvas there is a lot of energy and optimism. We could  be starting from scratch, or starting starting again (coming (coming full full circle) ci rcle).. We're num number one! There' There'ss no fear fear anything's possible. This number one isn't about knowing you've arrived - it's about knowing you could get there if you put your mind to it. It's the optimism and naivety of a teenager who's willing to try anything and is free from old habits or preconceived notions. This number one is selfish - but's it's a healthy selfish sel fish - not the the kind kind that that crushes other other peopl pe oplee but drags others along al ong with wi th it's sheer s heer optimism and idealistic outlook. Powerful stuff! However this boundless energy can be lacking in direction somewhat - it needs focus to be truly effective. Memory Tip: The number 1 looks like a capital I Company - Cooperation 2 Me And You - Two's Company We don't do n't stay alone and a nd single forever. fore ver. We We meet someone, fall in love lo ve and in many many ways our ego takes a step back as we w e learn lear n to to care for someone someone else. We We learn le arn to share, share, we w e learn lea rn to cooperate and do things together as a team. It's not always easy but it brings great rewards. We get to see the world another way, and we also learn to see things from another point of view. We form partnerships not just in our personal lives but our professional lives too. Memory Tip: A number 2 looking in the mirror to it's left creates a heart shape. You can also imagine this as two swans coming together to create a heart silhouette crowd   - Expansion 3 We Create Life - Three's a crowd 

Only two people can bring a third person into the world - it's how the human race has expanded to cover cove r the the ent e ntir iree globe. glob e. It's the the growth grow th of somethin something g from noth nothing, ing, the the fruits of coopera coop eration. tion. There can c an  be labour pains, but but the the rewards are ar e great. great. Let's Let's not forget forget that that even business business partners often often refer to their companies as 'babies' - the number three is all to do with seeing things come to life and grow  beyond  beyond a mere mere concept. Memory Tip: The number 3 looks like a pair of breasts to feed a baby walls - Security 4 We Make A Home - These four walls When a child enters a couple's life they seek stability and the four walls of a place they can call 'home' for their family. Structure and order are required, safety and practicality. Although a lot needs to be done, there is a sense of settling down combined with achievement. For many people this is the end of a cycle for them as a happy home life with children is one of their life goals. Kids or not, the four represents the solid foundation required for future plans and growth. Memory Tip: A square has four sides, like a simplistic house shape with square windows and doors ali ve  - Activity 5 The Family amily Grows -  Five alive Once a baby becomes a child things get pretty hectic - a hive of activity! There's always something to do, plans to make - life is certainly never the same again. Life seems to go at twice the speed, everything seems to happen at once and multi-tasking is the order of the day. There is growth in so many ways - physically, mentally and socially - and sometimes it can feel out of control. One thing's for sure - you can't halt progress. This isn't like the number 3 which creates something from nothing this is the growth of things that are already there. Memory Tip: The number 5 looks like the handlebars and front wheel of a kids scooter which can remind you of the notion of speed and movement  - Communication 6 The Child Learns To Communicate - Six is social  Before long the child is starting to communicate with the world around him and it's about personal interaction interactio n and a need to be under understood. stood. A chil child d may attem attempt pt to com co mmunica unicate te with w ith sounds, sounds, looks loo ks and actions - even with his building blocks! The number six isn't just about phoning people up, it's about connecting with people too. Memory Tip: The number 6 looks like an eye, or an ear, or a telephone heaven - Spirituality 7 The Child Asks Big Questions - Seventh heaven -

Once the child has learned to communicate he can start asking questions - and quite quickly they're questions we can hardly answer. 'Where did I come from?' is always a good one - it's funny how some of the first questions we ask as children are so difficult to answer! This need to understand and ask big questions has a spiritual ring to it - where did we come from, how did we get here, what's it all about? The seven is all about looking up to the stars as we ask for some kind of divine inspiration. Memory Memory Tip: The num number 7 looks l ooks like l ike a question mark  mark  gat e - Inspiration 8 The Child Is Inspired To Leave Home -  Eight through the gate The eight is when you leave home and do it for yourself, make your first strides towards independence and try out some of your own ideas for a change. You've got to get out there and make things happen, but it takes a leap of faith. You've got to believe you're ready for it but it takes inspiration and personal belief. It's almost like that lightbulb over the head moment where you 'get it' or have some flash of inspiration. But it's also about making the leap of faith required to make it happen. Memory Tip: The number 8 looks like two 3's put together side on - the number 3 is the child, the number 8 being twice his size and ready to move on (From Outer Space) Space) - Changes 9 He Makes A Difference -  Plan Nine (From You go out into the world and try to make a difference - you try and enable change. Unless things change you can very rarely get to where you want to go. Some of these changes will be changes you have to go through yourself, but many of them will be the changes which you've pushed through to reach your ultimate goal - indeed there may well be sacrifices. When you can almost smell success you can't let anything anything get in your your way w ay and have to at times be ruthles ruthless. s. Nine Ni ne is about nearly having it all. all . Don't give up - ever e veryt ything hing's 's going the the right r ight way. way. Memory Tip: The number 9 is the activity before the success of 10/10. Like 6, the number 9 also looks like eye, ear, telephone but this time it's on a higher more adult level of communication and action fuelled by determination and knowledge t en  - Success 10 He Becomes Successful - Ten out of ten The child has realised his dreams and in many ways he has grown up. He has made a success of himself and achieved his ambitions. There is a sense of finality and accomplishment and the end of a cycle. The ten is for top marks, abundance and accomplishments earned through hard work - it took all the other stages to reach this point. With this sense of accomplishment can also come the sense of looking for pastures new - for another challenge. There can be a big difference between success and stability.

Memory Tip: Top marks, the realisation of a goal or dream. The end of a cycle and the start of a new one This is just one way of looking at the numbers one to ten, but I wanted to explain the life cycle idea first because it's one of the easiest to remember. Some of the numbers are easier to grasp than others so here are some other things to bear in mind when you're trying to remember all of this: 1 and a nd 10 are a re obviously obvi ously beginnings beginnings and endings endings - the the starts s tarts of o f things things and everyt ever ything hing that's that's exciting about new ventures, and the ends of things and the satisfaction of completion 2 for cooperation is pretty easy to remember, for love, balance, coming together  3 for expansion makes sense when you think of two people having a third to create a family - it's about concepts becoming reality and partnerships bearing fruit 4 for stability makes sense when you think of the four walls of a house - the family need somewhere to live, live , solid sol id foundat foundations ions 5 for the growth in the home itself, and the 'hive' of activity inside needing to expand outside of the four walls - it's the four walls of the house, with something growing inside of it! 6 for communication, the 6 looks like an eye, an ear AND a telephone! 7 for the spiritual 'seventh heaven' and the questioning shape like a question mark  8 is 'out of the gate' - getting out there and doing it 9 is i s the final push for victory vi ctory,, the last la st mile, the the plann pl anning ing coming coming to fruitio fruition n 10 is the successful outcome, the realisation of everything that has gone before, the end of one cycle and the start of another  Let's remind ourselves of the whole story another way, this time dividing the numbers into three 'chapters' or sections: 1-3 : I Stand Alone / Two's Company / Three's A Crowd

The first three numbers are about fresh starts and early development The numbers 1-3 have their own little story. A single person (1) meets someone (2) and has a baby (3). (3) . When When you'r you'ree a single young young adult (1) it's all about excitement excitement and trying trying new new things things out with great enthusiasm. enthusiasm. Then you you meet meet som s omeone eone (2) ( 2) and share your your life l ife with w ith them them in a less l ess selfish sel fish way wa y. Then

(sometimes!) you have a baby (3) and you've both made a new number one! These first three numbers are relatively easy to understand. I Stand Alone, Two's Company & Three's A Crowd are well known sayings and perfectly illustrate what each number means. 4-7 : These Four Walls / Five Alive / Six Is social / 7th Heaven

 Num  Numbers four four to seven are more more to do with childhood childhood and the the fam family ily growi growing ng Security is needed so a house (4) is built for the family to live in. The baby grows into a child (5) and introduces all that crazy activity that revolves around having kids. The child learns to communicate and becom bec omes es a true member member of the the family (6). (6) . As he becom beco mes a young young adult he asks more big questions questions and becomes becomes more aware awar e of his place in the the world wor ld (7).

(8) . He makes things things happen, and his involvement in the real world shapes that world, even changes it (9).
