Numerology When counting counts

Numerology has been around for centuries and is a factor of every religion. From the pentacle of the pagans to the "666" of the Christians certain numbers have a mystical property to them. What ever your thoughts on the matter, the belief in numerology is prevalent in our society (the lack of a 13th floor in most skyscrapers etc.) This section will be covering some of the meaning of those numbers and how to derive meaning from other things as well.

Developing the numbers to use

The numbers used in numerology, must be developed from the vast array of numbers available from any item or set. In ordert o develop the numerology factor fo any given nimber you add together each digit. You rerpeat this until you get a number from 1 to 9. As an example, if you have a number 25. You would add the 2 and the 5 to get a 7. For a nukber like 275 you would add the 2 the 7 and the 5 to get 14. Then you add the 1 and the 4 to get 5. Just remember to keep adding the digits together until you get a single digit. This works for even the large numbers. As another example the number 3,678,441. I is easiest to add it in parts. 3 and 6 is 9. 7 and 8 is 15 4 and 4 is 8....then you add the parts 9 and 15 is 24. 8 and 1 (from the first number) is 9. To complete the addition 24 and 9 is 33. Then you add the sum together, 3 and 3 is 6, and there you go!

For names and words you have to use the placement of the letters for the value of the letter:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
A B C D E F G H I
J K L M N O P Q R
S T U V W X Y Z

So for a Name, like Suzy. you would add 1(S) +3(u)+8(z)+7(y)= 19=1+9=10=1+0=1

Now what do you do with these numbers? Each number has an intristic value metaphysically speaking so that the essence of the item is displayed by its numerological value.
