Preface
A s human beings, we are always interested in learning about the
unknown, about that which gives us an edge in our dealings with
our fellow men and nature. We seek to understand how we can best
achieve our goals and get to our preferred destinations with relative
ease. In summary, we all are interested in learning Reality’s or Nature’s
secrets.

nected to a center. This system is like a living being which like normal
living things is able to grow and develop. I know this statement is ridic-
ulous, but I implore you to indulge me for now, as I am confident that
eventually, you too will arrive at the same conclusion.
All that exists in reality (living and non-living) has a beginning and
necessarily has an expected destination. However, the beginning and
destination of all existents differ from one to the other depending on
their nature and their reason for existing. As a result, we would discover
that the lifespan of a man, a tree, a stream, a country and a planet vary
considerably. All aspects of reality has a program embedded in them.
This program is like a code that contains information about the nature
of that being. The word ‘being’ refers to all that exists inclusive of ani-
mate and inanimate nature.
This code carries information about what type of being it is, the
purpose of that being or what we may call its destiny as well as the way
or manner through which the being is going to realize itself or fulfill its
potentials/purpose.
It is possible to identify, read and interpret this code partly or fully
through several methods. One of such methods is through numerology.
I will discuss some other methods in future works.
The code of all beings can be converted into numbers and when
converted, we find that all beings have peculiar numbers that govern
them. Looking into these converted numbers through numerology, we
are able to understand and interpret the nature, purpose, potentials and
most likely path of that being.
The Individual human being also has this code because he/she is a
part of nature or the universe. As a result of this connection, the nature
of any particular human soul and the manner after which such a soul
would realize itself (his/her destiny) in the bigger unity( the Universe)
is therefore fixed and largely knowable. It is because of this that it be-
comes possible to see into the past, present and future of an individual,

What Is Numerology
Types of Numerology
There are two basic types of Numerology. They are Chaldean Numer-
ology and Pythagorean Numerology.
Chaldean numerology
Chaldean numerology originated from the Chaldean Philosophers
in the ancient Chaldean Empire and as such, it is older than the Pythag-
orean system. Some Numerologists believe it to be more accurate. Its
tone and language is more metaphysical and oracular, as a result it is
less used widely except by a few exceptional individuals. I shall en-
deavor to write on it in another volume of this work to assist those who
care to use it when they have compared both systems.
Pythagorean Numerology
Pythagorean system is more popular and easier to translate and uti-
lize. Its tone is more of a psychological bent than a divinatory or oracu-
lar one and as a result, it usually is helpful in understanding our person-
ality.
The above being said, the easily distinguishable difference between
both systems reside in the tools employed in their analysis or the meth-
ods employed in sorting out the numbers and their interpretations.
In this work, our focus is on the Pythagorean system. The Pythago-
rean system makes use of the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 22, 33,
44 and the English alphabets to interpret reality. In normal mathematics
and the English language, these numerals and alphabets have meanings
that we are already familiar with but in numerology, they take on sepa-
rate meanings from normal every day usage.
The Pythagorean system holds that all of reality and its processes
are reducible to and describable through the numbers listed above. A
brief overview of the numbers by their key words is given below:

The Core
These readings are considered the core because they make up the
framework or constitute an overview of any personality in question.
They could be likened to the canvas and the use of the colors black and
white by the Artist; in the development of a picture before the other
colors are added. In sum, they mark the basic properties without which
a picture is not possible.

hough at a much slower pace. There is a great deal on this issue, yet to
be addressed but I will stop here so I do not end up confusing the ma-
jority of my readers whom I assume are laypersons in this regard.
i. Reduce your day, Month and Year of birth to single digits separate-
ly. An example of May 24, 1982 as the birthday becomes:
May = 5th month = 5
24 = 2+4 = 6
1982 = 1+9+8+2 = 20 = 2+0 = 2
Giving 5, 6, 2
ii. Add the numbers together and reduce to a single digit or double
digits master number.
5, 6, 2 = 5+6+2 = 13 = 1+3 = 4
4 becomes the life path number for an individual born on May 24th,
1982.
iii If you arrive at an 11, 22, 33 or 44 as the answer of your second
stage, do not reduce further since it is a master number. An example
is the birthdate, July 24, 1989 that becomes:
July = 7th month = 7
24 = 2+4 = 6
1989 = 1+9+8+9 = 27 = 2+7 = 9
7, 6, 9 = 7+6+9 = 22/4.
The number twenty-two here becomes the life path. It is written as
22/4 because it is also a four, but a higher version of it.
iv Read the interpretation for your life path number.
Those born on the 11th and 22nd of any month should reduce it to a 2 or
4 when adding. That way, we would discover the most basic way the

sons to help them manage their projects. This is because they do not
have the capacity for follow up or the patience to grow an industry. If
they do not find themselves in leadership positions they grow resent-
ment, feel submerged and unfulfilled. Example of some famous persons
with life path 1 are: Wole Soyinka, T. B. Joshua, Asa, Olusegun
Obasanjo, Martin Luther King Jr., Tiger Woods, Tom Cruise and Fela
Kuti.

with even when people around them fail to see their relevance or coop-
erate with their plans. This path often carries with it fame, fortune and a
strong attraction of people to them, especially members of the opposite
sex. They should strive to prevent themselves from getting carried away
by the temptations the path offers, so as to enable them remain open to
inspirations, otherwise they could block off their capacity to receive
inspirations by succumbing to selfish pursuits.
In the case of a career or job, they are advised to pursue careers that
allow them the opportunity to present their views, designs or creations
in an unconstrained manner. If such opportunities do not exist in public
companies, they should endeavor to set up or pursue any field that en-
chants them in the creative world. They are advised to seek practical
advice from experts within the field of choice or employ a practical
minded individual to help them put their visions in practical form.
In situations where they are unable to find such careers, they feel
irritated and depressed because the channel through which their creative
energy flows is blocked and unless opened, it turns into toxic energy
that usually affects their health and mood. Example of some famous
persons with life path 3 are: Enya, Hillary Clinton, John Travolta,
Pierce Brosnan, Snoop Dogg and Shania Twain.
Life path 4

Life Path 5
The number 5 path is one that is marked by variety, diversity, experi-
ence, adventures and communication. It contrasts the number four life
path. It is the fifth step in the process of evolution. Its lesson is one that
teaches on the principles and proper use of freedom, movement, expan-
sion and communication. Using the plant analogy, it symbolizes the

talking. A condition that could have negative effects on their nerves and
mental health. Example of some famous persons with life path 5 are:
Sade, Angelina Jolie, Abraham Lincoln, Steven Spielberg, Nancy laine,
Catherine Zeta-Jones and Joe Vitale.
Life Path 6
Responsibility, service and care are the hallmarks of the 6-life path. It is
the sixth step in the evolutionary scale. The lesson taught in this path is
the need to play the role of the protector, the teacher, the healer and care
giver through the extension of love to all of nature. It is the call to nur-
ture all that has been prepared in the previous stages and crown them
with beauty.
This step is likened to the period of blossoming, flowering or first
show of maturity in plants. In the same way that the flowers of the plant
are beautiful and promising, so too are the individuals who bear this life
path. They usually appear beautiful or handsome, they radiate a pres-
ence of trustworthiness, caring and responsible nature.
Persons with the 6-life path are responsible, hardworking and de-
pendable. They have domestic abilities; they are kind hearted, service
oriented and have the ability to teach effectively with love. They are
comprised of health workers, teachers, humanitarians, altruists, cooks,
farmers and public service providers.
The obstacle they must surmount is the urge to think of the self and
abstain from embracing responsibility when called upon, especially
where there are no visible benefits or rewards. They must learn to show
love, care and support to those who are less fortunate than they are as
their sense of inner calm is tied to the happiness of the individuals in
need of their services. Sixes are motherly by nature, they usually be-
come the source of succor for those around their space. Activities that
are related to the home have a strong pull on them; as they are most
times the source of livelihood of a small or large unit they are a part of.

Life path 7
Path number 7 is one that is associated with repose, reflection and inter-
lude. It is the process of going within to tend the flame. It is the seventh
step in the scale of evolution, it teaches us to take stock of our develop-
ment process through the tools of introspection and analysis.
The plant analogy displays this stage as the brief moment of calm
that precedes the harvesting period. A pause that sees the farmer specu-
lating on how the harvest is likely to turn out. It brings to our mind the
need to examine our actions or the works, undertaken in the preceding
stages and effect necessary changes where we find the need for modifi-
cation; else, we end up with an inappropriate harvest.
Individuals with life path 7 are intelligent, analytical, independent

self after the inward journey. As the eighth step in the evolutionary
scale, it connotes the point where the work of the preceding paths is
displayed for all to see after the necessary changes have been effected
by the seven stage. It is Justice. It is what you have sown in the preced-
ing periods given to you to reap. A condition known as karma.
This stage represents the period of fruit bearing in plants and har-
vesting in farming. However, it is the fruit bearing or harvesting of that
which was previously sown. It is what results from all what you have
put in. The yield rate is different for individuals, full for some and emp-
ty for others.
Persons with this number are called to manifest Divine will and
judgment on matter. They are imbued with capacities to oversee large-
scale projects and investments. The are able to see in what ways raw
materials can be manipulated to serve needs as well as attract prosperity
through wealth creation. They are able to command obedience, service
and industry from individuals and groups through force of personality,
and will to institute structures that are necessary for societal subsist-
ence, and overall supply of material prosperity. They are comprised of
heads of Businesses and Institutions, owners of the wealth of the Earth,
Icons, judges, administrators, service heads and the powerful of society.
The obstacle they must surmount is the desire to enrich themselves
alone and center their life on the acquisition of material things. They
must endeavor to distribute wealth and resources to enable free flow of
the blessings of nature upon them. They should learn to understand that
money and material aggrandizements are not an end in themselves but
are useful only in their capacity to further human life and development.
They are possessive and have a penchant for greediness.
In career and job considerations, they should pitch their tent with
those ones that offer the possibility of climbing the ladder of authority.
They should endeavor to invest time in business or administratively
inclined pursuits. They have the capacity to set up and manage ventures
21
How To Know Yourself And Other People Through Numbers
for themselves although the problem of startup capital is a huge let off
for them due to their big ideas. They should try to start small rather
than focus on huge projects.
In cases where they are unable to find such positions, they become
plagued with delusions of grandeur, prone to conflicts with constituted
authority as well as being greedy and possessive in their dealings with
others. To feel realized, they need to be in control of resources. Exam-
ple of some famous persons with life path 8 are: Goodluck Jonathan,
Babatunde Fashola, Edgar Cayce, Elizabeth Taylor, Whoopi Goldberg,
Richard Gere, Frank Abagnale and Paul Newman.

with the skills of the previous paths to bear on life’s tasks. They have
the skills of the previous paths because they have travelled through
them, learnt their lessons and acquired their merits/fruits. As a result,
niners are matured and sophisticated in appearance; wise and experi-
enced in communication as well as in action.
This path is comprised of Reformers, Fighters of social causes,
Teachers, Religious Leaders, Humanitarians, Activists and Force per-
sons. They challenge us to reach beyond our selves and impress on us
the futility of self-gratification.
The challenge they must endeavor to surmount is the urge to en-
force their views on others by force rather than dialogue. They must
endeavor to think beyond the self and the things of the world, to see the
connection in the multiplicity that covers both human beings and the
rest of nature. To guide and assist with the transition of consciousness.
In career and Job considerations, their options are practically infi-
nite as they have what it takes to succeed in almost any sphere they are
interested in. They are however, advised to pursue paths that involve
the shepherding, reformation and transformation of individuals and re-
sources through whatever medium they delight in.
In the event of not finding an avenue to channel their experiences,
they feel useless and directionless as their higher self continually tor-
ments them with a thirst that shallow pursuits cannot satisfy. Although I
must say as a rule of thumb, they usually know where and how to fit in
if they are in tune with themselves. Example of some famous persons
with life path 9 are: Muhammadu Buhari, Bob Marley, Mahatma Gan-
dhi, Whitney Houston, Elvis Presley, Kurt Russell, Harrison Ford and
Ricky Martin.
The numbers 11, 22, 33 and 44 denote paths that belong to a second
order. They usually designate souls that have developed previously
23
How To Know Yourself And Other People Through Numbers
through the paths 1 to 9 and mastered them, but have either decided or
been sent to assist in the development of others. They are called Master
numbers. The higher the value of the master number, the rarer its fre-
quency of manifestation. If they are arrived at in course of life path cal-
culations, they are not reduced further but interpreted as they appear.
The interpretations for the master numbers are as follows:
Life Path 11
The number 11 is the first of the master numbers. It gives the 2 when
added together. It is made of two 1's. The double force of the 1's swal-
low themselves and produces a 2 whose sensitivity and ability doubles
the normal 2 making them to possess firstly the qualities of the 2 and 1
life paths discussed previously.
In this case, it represents the borders of consciousness as the first
step above the physical structure of the 9 evolutionary scale. The bear-
ers of this number are endowed with the capacity to attune to divine
signals and channel its message to areas where visionary leadership and
uncommon foresight are lacking.
It is the number of the Prophet, the Visionary, the Seer or Guide.
The bearer is a bridge between the seen and the unseen; he/she receives
vibrations, inspirations and visions from the beyond to guide humanity
in their development. Persons on this path usually become Pastors,
Spiritual Leaders, Light workers, Visionaries, motivational speakers
and those who inspire others.
In career and job considerations, they are better at people related
ventures. Although, they usually hold sensitive, leadership or advisory
positions in any other profession that excites them.
Due to the charged potency of this number, not every bearer is able
to live up to its expectations. In such cases, the bearer could block out
his or her abilities and choose to lead the life of the normal 2 if he/she
was not fated for it since they already possess the qualities of the 2 life
24
The Core
path. This is the reason why the 11-life path is written as 11/2, to show
the possibility of reducing to an ordinary 2.
They are overly incapable of putting their visions into practical
form as they lack the practical powers of the four. They should endeav-
or to always connect with people to relieve their nervous strain.
Life Path 22
The number 22 is the second in the series of master numbers. The dou-
ble two give birth to a four when added together. This 4 has twice the
potency of the normal 4 and the 11, giving the 22 the qualities of the
normal 4 and 11 discussed above.
The double power of the 11 and 4 gives the 22 the power to see the
visions of the 11 and bring them to manifestation in reality. The 22 is
considered for this reason as the master Builder. The bearer of this
number is able to develop grand projects from ideas and visions that
could and usually does transform and benefit the lives of millions of
people.
The bearer is able to do what others fantasize. He/she is capable of
bringing people, ideas and resources together to achieve uncommon
goals. The bearer has the capacity to reach the zenith of any profession
he/she chooses to function in. They have the capacity of administration,
Problem solving, ingenuity and resourcefulness.
As the case with all master numbers, the early years of the bearer is
usually overburdened with this energy because of the high level of
nervousness it exacts on the nerves of the bearer but this effect becomes
enjoyable as they become mature.
Bearers of master numbers usually appear odd and mysterious to
their peers who find it difficult to relate with them, understand the
things they discuss or their areas of interest. This trait is as a result of
the high wavelength of consciousness they operate from. More so is the
fact that they are from a higher plane having previously graduated
25
How To Know Yourself And Other People Through Numbers
through the paths 1 to 9 and 11, for which reason they usually appear
wise, insightful, Prophetic and knowledgeable to their peers. Some of
their peers tend to think they were born with silver spoons.
They attain high positions in professional life irrespective of their
choice of career so long as their channel is open. Their success and pro-
gress is tied to the wellbeing of others. For which reason then, they ex-
perience undue difficulty in the execution of their goals if their aim is to
use their gifts to enrich their self.
The challenge they have to contend with is to find the will-power to
pay attention to details even when they think they have the master plan
in place. As their capacity for broad view usually creates a condition of
oversight in small details which could prove fatal in the proper execu-
tion of their plans.
As in the case of the eleven, the bearer can choose to live the life of
the ordinary 4 by shutting out the faculties, for which reason it is writ-
ten as 22/4 except if the bearer is fated. In which case, he/she has no
choice in the matter. Example of some famous persons with life path 22
are: Tuface Idibia, Sir Paul McCartney, Tupac Shakur, Sir Richard
Branson, Dale Earnhardt, Sri Chimnoy, Dean martin and Bryan Adams.
Life Path 33
Thirty-three is the master number called the great Teacher or Sacrificial
Victim. The bearer of the number 33 has the qualities of the double 3
which comprise it and 6 which is its base. These qualities put the bear-
ers in the limelight and enable them to develop the quality of service to
others and society as well as the traits of the 1, 4, 11 and 22, all re-
enforced.
This number endows the bearer with the capacity for great wisdom
and caretaking ability. The bearer if properly developed becomes a
Teacher who could elucidate on very difficult concepts; a Healer who
could revive lost and dying souls and a caregiver who could lay down
26
The Core
his life for others. They are comprised of mystics, philanthropists, heal-
ers, teachers and service providers. It is a rare life path and very diffi-
cult to live up to.
The bearer of this path must learn to teach by example, to heal by
love and self-sacrifice, to be quick to show love and forgiveness.
The challenge of the path is to find the will to keep helping people
even if they do not show appreciation. The bearers are usually confront-
ed with conditions or circumstances wherein they see their work en-
joyed by others and have to settle with little or nothing. It is the path of
Agape. It is rumored that the Master Jesus had this life path.
As in the cases of the previous master numbers, the bearer is free to
choose the easy way and live the life of the lower 6. However, the in-
teresting fact is that until they embrace the call and endeavor to live up
to its expectations, happiness and evenness of mind continues to evade
them.
The only rule they should strive to maintain to experience constant
success in their endeavors is to utilize their abilities to assist others and
not the furtherance of their own interests. To do so will block their in-
flux of inspiration and stagnate their development.
Life Path 44
The life path 44 is tagged the master achiever. It is the number of ulti-
mate dominion, ultimate Justice and ultimate karma. It is a very, very
rare and difficult number to bear. The bearer of this number has the
qualities of the 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 11, 22, and 33 all re-enforced.
It endows the bearer with a fate that urges him/her to develop very
grand institutions or bear the burden of others in a worldly or material
sense. It is the number of Governments, Presidents, Kings, Rulers of
men and World Leaders.
It is the highest possible Incarnation on planet Earth for now. Its
27
How To Know Yourself And Other People Through Numbers
bearer holds and determines the fates and fortunes of Nations, King-
doms and Countries that contain Millions and Billions of people. The
bearer is tantamount to a small god on this Earth. It is most likely the
case that the individual has not learnt to unclog the flow of energy and
harness the full powers of the potentials the path carry.
However, the bearer is still able to replicate these feats in a small
scale within his field of influence when the bigger stage is not available.
In this regard, they are still able to determine the conditions of liveli-
hood for those within their field of influence. A condition which per-
sons around them cannot help but align with, given the sheer force of
their personality.
It is also possible for the bearer to choose a lower path except
where fated otherwise. The path is extremely difficult, it brings the
bearer in confrontation with circumstances where he/she has to make
very hard decisions that the lives and wellbeing of millions/billions de-
pend on.
The 44-life path is only possible in an 11 or 22 year. They appear
once in an 11 year and twice in a 22 year. There is only one 11 year and
five 22 years in the period of 100 years, ranging from 1900 to 1999
which means there was only eleven of them born among the 36,157
souls born in the 100 years period from 1900 to 1999 assuming 1 soul
was born a day. How rare would you say that is?
The numbers 55, 66, 77, 88 and 99 do not apply here as life paths be-
cause no birth date adds to them presently and they do not immediately
reduce to a single digit when added together like 55 being 5+5 = 10,
which is also a 1. The same applies to all other numbers that range from
10, 12, 13, 14, 20, 21, 23, 30, 31, 34 and so on to infinity after the life
path 9 because they reduce to the numbers 1 to 9 or the master numbers
when added together. In the case of the number 0. it is not included
among the life paths for the following reasons:
28
The Core
The interpretations given for the life paths above are not exhaustive. As
this is an introductory work, they should suffice in familiarizing a nov-
ice to the discourse.
The above being established, I wish to pass across some important
points about the life paths.
1. The energies that the life paths carry could be underbalanced, over-
balanced or balanced. The methods for analyzing this is lengthy and
will be treated in another volume.
2. The double-digit numbers that are reducible to any of the numbers
1-9 or master numbers have special interpretations. Examples of
these are the numbers14 and 29, which will reduce to 5 and 11 re-
spectively. In preparing reports, they assist us to know whether
there is a condition of fate or karma attached to the individual as
well as how the life path is likely to manifest given the variety of
possible outlets.
3. All the paths, even though they are expressed above in the positive,
can take on the negative aspects of their qualities. The individual’s

The Core
You would observe that the master number paths and the 2 and 4 paths
do not appear as much as the other paths bringing to mind our analysis
of the life currents and their distribution. Does it not suppose that there
could be a design to all of life?
31

process of development.
In extreme cases, it is advisable to change the name of the individu-
al to a more suitable expression or one that best characterizes the direc-
tion/career line the individual intends to follow. Such changes have
worked wonders for persons who deliberately or incidentally had a
name change. As in the case of Jacob and Abram to Israel and Abraham
in the bible as well as countless artists, actors, actresses, authors and the
like professions that abound around us.
The expression number shows the tools that the individual has cho-
sen or has to work with and as such houses a group of talents that the
individual has at least potentially which he or she could utilize in terms
of a career to express his or herself.
Some numerologists hold the view that the individual to be born
communicates the name or kind of expression he or she would want to
have to the parent who is most sensitive at the time of birth or a close
associate of the parents to choose a name after it to assist the life of the
child.
Examples of this abound in our daily experiences, the tales told us
of how we got our names and some cases of names being revealed
through dreams or visions as we find in the Bible and some other
books.
The tool of this calculation is the English Alphabets and the value
of the letters as follows:

The Core
They do not only see ways to improve our way and condition of life
but are able to implement them if given the right platform. These indi-
viduals are years above the development of their contemporaries and as
a result, those around them find it hard to keep up with their ideas and
visions.
This gap creates some kind of frustration in terms of finding suita-
ble materials to work with to carry out their goals within the society
they appear. These tools could be money, resources, support and so on.
Their peers usually misunderstand them, as they appear old, aloof and
out of touch with the conditions around them.
They experience a great deal of mental strain and nervousness, es-
pecially in their younger years. They have better control of their poten-
tials as they mature and are better at executing their goals after 30 years
of age.
To choose the right career path, they need only to be in tune with
their higher self and they would know what aspect of society is in need
of their services, and work along those lines. Overly, they would even-
tually overcome despite their limitations so long as they focus on pro-
jects that would benefit the majority of persons, as nature usually comes
to their aid only in that regard.

lic service related professions.

are under, and the needs of other persons they bear that seem to choke
41

them. These individuals have souls that always yearn to show love and
tend to end up as sacrificial victims in their quest to assist others.
Their path is more spiritual than material. They make great Teach-
ers or Healers if they follow their path closely.
Expression 44
A 44 expression has the call to institute structures by divine mandate. It
is a path, that does not allow the bearer the freedom to choose how the
destiny will play out, the bearer is subject to strict conditions of action
which are for the most part arduous. It is for this reason designated as a
Karmic path.
Bearers of a 44 expression are called to show supreme discipline
and courage in the face of overwhelming affairs and thereby create sys-
tems that would stand the test of time. Few are able to live up to the
expectations of this number as most usually fall to the normal 8 and end
up embracing material satisfaction.
The path is one that endows the bearer with a strict sense of justice,
equity and fairness. They are frequently thrown into circumstances that
require them to plead for or defend the wellbeing of people. They have
a strong sense of tact, dedication and perseverance.
Their career path is usually one that involves the protection/
provision of the basic needs of individuals as well as the building of
elaborate structures that would affect the life of people for a lengthy
period – activities that could be in the form of legislating or critical in-
frastructural development.
They could also function in other areas of life but their inner gauge
is better pacified in areas where they are faced with seeming insur-
mountable challenges as they are naturally drawn to such areas.

ume. Generally, the higher the number, the more spiritual and less ma-
terial becomes its content and application. The double numbers that
make up the single digits have special meanings as well, their combina-
tions bring in special properties to the single digits. In another volume, I
would treat them.

The traditional vowels arranged with their numerical equivalents as
used in the expression calculation are:
a e i o u
1 5 9 6 3
In the case of the letters ‘w’ and ‘y’ as vowels, the following
method is applied.
‘w’ is interpreted as a vowel when it immediately comes after a
normal vowel because in such a situation, its pronunciation is the
same as the vowel before it. It has the value of 5. Examples are the
names Matthew and Andrew. In both cases, it has the value of 5.
‘y’ is interpreted as a vowel in two cases. The first case is where
there is no traditional vowel in the syllable. Examples are the names
Yvonne and Henry. It has a value of 7 in this first case. The second
case is where it comes immediately after a normal vowel. Examples
are names like Raymond and Royston. In this category, it also has
the value of 7.
To determine the soul urge of an individual, proceed in the following
manner:
i. Outline the full names of the individual like before and assign the
value of the vowels to the name. Example, Ben Chigozie Okafor
5 9 6 9 5 6 1 6

ii. Reduce the numbers of the vowels in each name to single or master
number digits and add all digits together.

The Core
The Birthday is the last of the core, and it is next to the Inner Longing
in order of importance. It is simply the day of the month that an individ-
ual was born in. It is the simplest of all numerology calculations. It
shows us the basic talents that an individual was born with.
I am sure that anyone who has taken the time to look into the days
of the months as regards the birth of individuals would have two promi-
nent questions among so many others. The first would be, why are indi-
viduals born on different days of the month? And why are they different
from each other in terms of goals, talents and so on? The second ques-
tion would be, why is it that even those born on the same day are differ-
ent in terms of character, talents and goals?
The days of the month carry different energies. These energies are
conditioned by the vibrations housed by the numbers of the days.
Firstly, as we have seen from chapter one, the interpretations for the
Life Paths, the Expression and the Inner Longing; the numbers 1-9, 11,
22, 33 and 44 designate all aspects of reality and in a sense, carries the
vibrations of these aspects within them. Each of the numbers above has
certain potentials and capabilities which become subject to the use, con-
trol and manipulation of the bearers of such numbers.
All the days of the months are reducible to the numbers 1-9, 11 and
22. The numbers 33 and 44 are not possible here because the maximum
for each month as currently constituted is 31.
After the individual soul has chosen a Life path within which he or
she is to learn the current life lesson; the soul then chooses a destiny or
a strong point within the life-path to channel the purpose through. The
soul imprints the present purpose deep within the consciousness of the
individual as the Inner Longing so as to enable him/her to always re-
member what he/she must strive to achieve in this life, lest the soul gets
carried away by life’s experiences and the purpose for which the indi-
vidual is being born is forgotten.

the core above, but the reason for this reverse awareness by way of
throwing more light is because the individual experiences the influences
of the birthday no. on a daily basis. He or she is always conscious of
that aspect of their person which informs them of their basic talents.
Their friends also tend to know them by those aspects.
They experience the longing on a weekly basis, the sense of destiny
on a monthly basis and the idea of a path on a yearly basis. If we zoom
out on the life of an individual, we see the soul path but if we zoom in-
wards, we see the destiny in the career direction, the urge as the
promptings/motivations in their career life behind the scene and the
birthday no. in their daily life if we are familiar with them.
To decode the personality of an individual with numerology, pro-
ceed in the following manner:
1. Outline the date of birth and full names of the individual as
found in the birth certificate.
2. Workout the Life Path number.
3. Assign the numerical equivalent of the vowels above the names
and those for the consonants below the names.
4. Add and reduce the digits of the vowels of each name to single
or master number digits as applicable.
5. Repeat the same process for the consonants below.
6. Add the reduced single or master number digits of the vowels
of each name together to a single or master number as applica-
ble to give the Inner Longing.
7. Repeat the same process for the consonants below to give the
Mask/Secret Self.
8. Add and reduce the result of the vowels and consonants togeth-
er to give the Expression.
9. Repeat steps 3-8 for the short names or most used names of the
individual separately to give added insight where applicable.
10. Work out the Birthday Number.
11. Read the interpretations for the Life Path, Expression, Inner

brevity and space. I will discuss the others in the next volume of this
work.
The first vowel and first consonant modulator is one that introduces
very remarkable traits to the personality of the individual. It presents at
first glance a working exposé of the personality of the individual and
shows us the approach the individual instinctively follows in dealing
with, and responding to physical and emotional issues.
If the first letter that begins the personal name of an individual (not
last name or surname) is a vowel, it shows that the individual is an emo-
tional, expressive and sensitive person. The degree of expressiveness
and sensitivity is dependent on the letter of the vowel involved. The
first vowel discovered in the name, whether it is the first letter or not,
shows the attitude, with which the individual tackles his goals and ac-
tivities. It shows in a nutshell, 60% of the individuals usual course of
action or predisposed approach to issues of the physical world.
It also shows the individuals attitude to work, play and the prefer-
ence of the individual in terms of a suitable mate for friendships, rela-
tionships, marriage as well as his or her sexual preferences.
If the first alphabet is a consonant, it shows the individual as a
physical, reserved and unfeeling or insensitive person. The degree of
unfeelingness or insensitiveness is determined by the consonant in-
volved, as some consonants vibrate a solid/rational tone than others.
The first consonant discovered in the name, whether the first letter or
not shows 40% of the individuals preferred course of action to issues of
the physical world.

The Modulators
The letter ‘a’ as the first letter of the alphabet has the qualities of asser-
tiveness, originality, leadership, and pioneering ability. If it is the first
letter or first vowel of a name, the individual is proud, an initiator,

Individuals with this quality prefer to have friends that will follow
them as they choose, listen to them and not pose any sort of competition
to them.
In marriage and romantic relationships, they appreciate relation-
ships that have a goal or focus attached to them. They appreciate direct-
ness and outspoken ability in their mates, as they do not have the pa-
tience for guessing games or reading body languages.
As regards their sexual preferences, they prefer to get right to it and
skip the foreplay where possible. They like to take the lead and usually
focus on satisfying their selves.
The above qualities are dampened if the letter before or after the ‘a’

tivities. They are very good at establishing social relationships as they
find it easy to identify with the interests of people. If ‘u’ is the first let-
ter of the name, the above traits are pronounced.
In romantic relationships and marriage, their preference is more or
less an enigma. They fluctuate between being passive-minded, active-
minded and outright dramatic. They generally prefer to have colorful
and lively mates and as such thrive on the thrill or energy rush from
doing simple things in dramatic ways. This feel is occasionally replaced
by a shy and sensitive disposition that longs for more protection and
pampering from their mates. The same is without much warning almost
replaced totally by a forceful and independent approach that puts their
mates on the receiving end.
In sum, they follow others sometimes, lead others sometimes and
manipulate others most of the time. The above traits are dampened if
there is the letter ‘g’, ‘y’, ‘d’ or ‘v’ immediately before or after the ‘u’.
It is also the case if a ‘7’ or ‘4’ is among the core numbers.

at is progressive leadership. That is, if they are able to muster their will,
take charge courageously, face problems squarely/decisively and
properly align with/follow the promptings of their higher self. No
doubt, it is a bold charge but one which they are fated to follow and
master; for which reason then, the letter ‘s’ like the number ‘19’ is con-
sidered karmic.
The above traits are dampened if there is the letter ‘i’, ‘b, ‘k’, or ‘t’
immediately before or after the ‘j’ or ‘s’. It is also the case if a ‘9’ or ‘2’
belongs among their core. The traits are pronounced if a ‘c’, ‘l’, ‘u’ or
‘e’ is close to the consonant. It is intense if an ‘a’ is close to it.
92
The Modulators
‘C’, ‘L’
The letters ‘c’ and ‘l’ are the 3rd and 12th among the alphabets. They
both reduce to the number ‘3’ and as such, have the properties of crea-
tivity, artistry, expressiveness, enthusiasm, zest, fame and fortune.
Individuals with a ‘c’ or ‘l’ as their first consonant have the capaci-
ty to literally light up a place with their presence. They have the capaci-
ty to manipulate words and behavior to suit their purpose. They have
creative skills – in that they are able to whip up new methods to go
about everyday affairs. They handle their chores and activities with a
touch of lightness and delicacy that adds drama and color to routine
affairs.
Individuals with ‘l’ as their first consonant have more magic up
their sleeves, in that they have a touch of arrogance and dependency to
their natures. They sometimes dilate between being active and passive;
being assertive and receptive. There is an element of willfulness and an
ability to be sensitive to the mood of those around them.
The above traits are dampened if there is the letter ‘d’ or ‘y’ imme-
diately before or after the ‘c’ or ‘l’. It is also the case if a ‘4’ or ‘7’ ap-
pears in their core. In cases where the name has both ‘c’ and ‘l’ like in
Clement, the qualities are intense and more pronounced.

stances and as such, they have to exert themselves more if they are to
get desired results. They have the ability to marry ideas/creativity with
realistic goals. In sum, they hardly take things for granted.
Persons with a ‘v’ are extremely realistic; they hardly elevate fan-
cies and wishes to the level of reality. They are very firm on their
views and opinions about the activities/processes of the world. As a
result, to influence their views is difficult to achieve. They have the
capacity to think in broad terms and see the big picture but experience
difficulties generally, in actualizing their goals. They tend to feel high-
minded and sometimes instinctively disregard/condescend on others.
The above traits are dampened if there is the letter ‘e’, ‘y’ or ‘i’
immediately before or after the ‘d’, ‘m’ or ‘v’. it is also the case if a
‘5’, ‘7’ or ‘9’ belongs among their core.
‘N’, ‘W’
The letters ‘n’ and ‘w’ are the 14th and 23rd among the alphabets. They
both reduce to a ‘5’ and as such, have the qualities of expressiveness,
communication, experience, adventurousness and resourcefulness.
Individuals with an ‘n’ as their first consonant are freedom loving,
enterprising, bold and methodic. They have an independent mind that
yearns for personal liberty. They have a tendency to scatter their ener-
gy by beginning much and completing little. They find it hard to let
themselves relax completely because they experience an inner conflict
of being restrained and unrestrained by norms almost simultaneously.
They have much will power and courage.
Persons with a ‘w’ are dual natured. They are sometimes physical-
ly minded and other times emotionally motivated depending on wheth-
er or not the ‘w’ acts as a vowel or consonant in their name.
As a vowel, it makes them sensual, quick minded, adventurous,
expressive, sensitive and dynamic. As a consonant, it makes them
broadminded, witty, resourceful, tactful and creative. Overly, however

the case, they radiate a contagious energy that captures their environ-
ment.
In matters of romance and marriage, they appreciate a partner that
constantly excites them and as such, one who is a constant puzzle for
them to unravel. They like to have the freedom to do whatever excites
them in the bedroom.
Generally, ‘n’ and ‘w’ individuals are given to much communica-
tion and demonstration about whatever captures their attention. They
are heavily moved by their senses.
The above traits are dampened if the letters ‘d’, ‘m’, ‘v’ or ‘o’ is
immediately before or after the consonant. It is also the case if a ‘4’ or
‘6’ is in their core numbers. Individuals with an ‘e’ close to their ‘w’
are remarkably intense as regards the traits discussed above. An exam-
ple is the name ‘Weimi’.
‘F’, ‘X’
The letters ‘f’ and ‘x’ are the 6th and 24th among the alphabets. They
both reduce to a ‘6’ and as such, have the qualities of responsibility,
nurture and service.
Individuals with the letter ‘f’ as their first consonant are friendly,
responsible, maternal, caring, kind and service-minded. They relish do-
mestic and maternal responsibilities; as such, they are very protective of
persons close to them or under their care. They have an innate dogged-
ness that arises if they feel themselves or their interests threatened in an
environment.
Persons with an ‘x’ are gentler, soft spoken, sensitive, hard work-
ing, stable, dependable and responsible. They have an innate awareness
of the needs of those in their fields of perception and as such, usually
make effort to provide solutions to the needs of other people before the
problem arises.

‘R’
The letter ‘r’ is the 18th among the alphabets. It reduces to a ‘9’ and as
such, has the properties of idealism, maturity, compassion, independent
mindedness, leadership ability, power craving and administrative abil-
ity.
Individuals with ‘r’ as their first consonant are kind, respected, ma-
ture and responsible in appearance and thought. They have an innate
longing to shoulder the burdens of individuals, an establishment or
group. They endeavour to lead exemplary lives and as such, expect the
people around them to follow their lead.
They have the capacity to envision elaborate schemes and work
towards their attainment gradually, irrespective of whether or not they
are realizable in the short run.
They as a rule have an innate shrewdness for business administra-
tion and organization. They are able to foresee with relative ease the
prospects that particular business ideas or test runs have to offer; and as
such, have the capacity to invest wisely and appropriately.

our personality; our dealings with the people we meet daily, those we
choose to have relationships with; those we work with and those we
choose to marry. Little wonder then, why we experience a strange feel-
ing of resentment for some persons when we meet them for the first
time; why two friends or lovers can’t seem to get along, why our mar-
riages do not work no matter how we try, and why some businesses do
well and others do not.
In this vein, from a general standpoint, we would discover that
among the basic numbers in numerology (1-9), four of them are mascu-
line, another four are feminine and one is dual. Below is an illustration
of this analogy.
Masculine/Positive Feminine/Negative

The notion of being negative is not in a dark sense rather, it is about the
gentle passive poise with which they go about their designs. As such,
they embody the deeper, darker aspects of being while the positives
embody the higher, lighter aspects of being. Although essentially, the
both are two aspects of one and the same reality, for which reason then,
they always go together as exemplified in the principle of polarity –
advantages/disadvantages, light/darkness, yin/yang and so on.
That said, we could safely say that all male numbers readily go to-
gether and the same goes for the female numbers. However in order to
find balance, they are better off if matched with their pairs. Examples of
such pairs are the numbers ‘1-2’, ‘3-4’, ‘5-6’ and so on. Although they
would appear to be disharmonious most times, in the long run they have
the greatest chance for success/happiness.

Using the chart above, we can surmise that the chances of a successful
marriage is attainable if both parties assumed to have attained the 50%
mark in the previous classification for friendships and relationships are
able to meet at least, the average point here. Reduce the previous 50%
and the present 50% to 25% each so that they both result to 50% when
added together. In which case then, the newly arrived at 50% becomes a
sure wager for an average or normal marriage life.

By way of closing this chapter, I must impress upon you that the prop-
erties of the numbers in Pythagorean numerology as discussed in this
book, and as used here to reveal some of the secrets of establishing and
maintaining harmony with other persons, whether by plain friendships,
romantic relationships, marriage or business; reveal what should be the
case or the normal personality traits of individuals who bear such num-
bers so long as there is free flow of energy.
However, it is almost normal experience that the channels are more
often than not either partially or totally blocked. Blockages could exist
because of the presence of a/some latent or undeveloped potentials. It
could also be caused by what I term ‘Catalysts’. I shall discuss the issue
of ‘Catalysts’ in an upcoming volume.
Finally, as regards Friendships, Relationships, marriage and Busi-
nesses; it is important to note that what makes them successful ulti-
mately is the awareness that effort needs constantly be expended at
them, in a bid to understand their nature, how they ought to function as
well as how to help them grow.
Hence, the assertion made previously that the journey requires the
conscious will of the individual wor king in line with divine will to
realize/actualize the self completely.

The personal years, months and days delineation show periods in the
life of an individual, Relationship, Marriage, Business/Company, Na-
tion/Country and so on; arranged in a manner that would enable them to
learn the lessons of all the numbers and attain maturity.
116
Predicting Events With Numerology
The personal years are a breakdown of the chronological years into cy-
cles to show how the individual, group or entity would develop over
time and assist him/her or them to do so properly. To calculate the Per-
sonal Years, use the following method.
1. Reduce your month and day of birth into single or master number
digits where applicable, and add the both resultant digits together.
May 15th for example becomes:
May = 5th month = 5
15th = 1+5 = 6
5+6 = 11/2
2. Reduce the year in question to a single digit or master number. The
year 2015 for example becomes:
2015 = 2+0+1+5 = 26 = 2+6 = 8
3. Add the result of the month and day addition to the reduced value
of the intended year.
11+8 = 20 = 2+0 = 2
The number 2 becomes the personal year number for an Individual,
Relationship, Marriage, Company or Country born on May 15th.
3. Look up the interpretation for personal year 2.
Year 1
A personal year 1 denotes a year of new beginnings. A year that favors
the start of a new long-term project or endeavor. It usually brings excit-
ing opportunities to begin all over. An avenue that those experiencing it
117
How To Know Yourself And Other People Through Numbers
Year 2
A year 2 denotes a time of growth and development. It is the period
where the universe works on our inputs for the previous year with a
view to determining if they are viable enough to bear roots or not. Ac-
tivities are typically slow and fraught with obstacles.
It calls for patience and faith if we are to emerge successfully. Faith
in a higher power that directs the affairs of us all and patience realizing
that nature’s processes cannot be hastened without repercussions. Much
like forcing a seed to germinate from within the wombs of the earth. It
calls for nurturing and gradually developing the projects of the previous
year.
Plans and expectations are usually met with delays. Individuals are
more sensitive and susceptible to the feelings of others around them and
the promptings of the spirit. Individuals are able to form lasting bonds
118

with others with relative ease this year; most times, they find a soul ma-
te. Vivid dreams and revelations are commonplace for people experi-
encing this year.
February shows the first signs of difficulty; May is intense and
transforming. June is refreshing while July is exhausting. September is
critical while November is restricting. December points to a new begin-
ning.
Year 3
A year 3 denotes a period of drama, fun, colour and zest. It reveals the
first signs of life from the projects began and nurtured in the last 2
years. As such, it brings new opportunities to re-implement changes to
aspects we find challenging in our projects.
It requires creativity and expressive ability to harness its benefits.
Available opportunities draw those under this period to public activities
that puts them in the limelight and offers fame/fortune. Interactions
with associates and the opposite sex is typically progressive. It creates a
feeling of optimism and confidence in ones abilities as luck seems to be
within the surroundings of the bearer.
January is difficult requiring tact; February brings expansive oppor-
tunities. April calls for isolation, reflection and reconnecting with the
inner stillness. May brings rewards; July sharpens the year 3 influences.
August calls for calm and patience; September is intense while October
calls for conservativeness.
Year 4
A year 4 marks a period fraught with constrains and rigour. It brings
opportunities for the consolidation of projects, visions and activities,
especially those began within the past three years. It is essentially a
matter of fact or a physical kind of year. As such, the principle that reg-
ulates it is practical mindedness.
119
How To Know Yourself And Other People Through Numbers
Year 5
A year 5 denotes a period of freedom and expansion. It brings relief
from the stiff conditions of the previous year. The bearer feels like they
have been let out of a cage. The individual literally finds his/herself
faced with opportunities for travel, learning, adventure, and self-
expression.
A year 5 kindles a certain restlessness in the Individual to move
beyond the boundaries that he/she have been accustomed to previously.
It comes with a series of fast-paced changes and usually places in the
hands of the individual, more activities than he/she can comfortably
manage.
Opportunities for making money are usually available but money
acquired is usually spent very quickly. Sensual considerations are para-
mount for the individual. It is quite common to find patrons of this year
number to make dramatic changes to the otherwise routine-like aspects
120
Predicting Events With Numerology
of their lives.
February is full of reflection, April is cumbersome, and May feels
like a new beginning while June is slow. July is buoyant while August
is cumbersome. September is intense while November is thought pro-
voking.
Year 6
A year 6 endows its patrons with a sense of calm, evenness of mind and
wellbeing. It is a beautiful year by basic reckoning. It creates an over-
view of the good things to come for the patron to witness. It is marked
by responsibility, care, affection and service.
A 6 personal year captures and redirects the attention of its patrons
to activities that centre on domestic concerns. He or she is moved to
marry and settle if unmarried and focus more on the wellbeing of the
members of one’s family where available. It is commonplace for indi-
viduals under this influence to move to a new apartment or redecorate/
furnish their surroundings.
As regards the overseeing of daily chores and activities in both the
workplace and elsewhere, the individual is more concerned with the
wellbeing of his/her colleagues and the success of the work they do. As
such, they are quick to take on more responsibility to ensure that targets
are met or projects are properly finalized.
Overly, opportunities for improving the wellbeing of the individual
are available. January creates philosophic concerns, April signals a turn
-around, July calls for hard work and perseverance while September is
remarkable. October is critical; November is abundant while December
is satisfying.
Year 7
A year 7 denotes a time of interlude, isolation, reform, research and
spirituality. A critical period among the personal years that brings to
121
How To Know Yourself And Other People Through Numbers
bear essential changes for the overall wellbeing and development of the
patron. A year 7 is a very intense year.
Generally, its patrons are thrown into the inner realms of contem-
plation and thought. Conditions are such that it creates some form of
isolation from other persons in the lives of the bearers – by either physi-
cally distancing themselves from others or being with others while be-
ing separate from them mentally. As a result, they tend to feel alone,
fragile and sensitive.
Material considerations are placed in the back burner while con-
cerns of the meaningfulness or direction of the bearer’s life takes the
front burner. It is commonplace to witness some form of misfortune
within this year, especially in the early and later part of the year. The
degree of misfortune and the resultant sadness is dependent on the ego
placement of the individual and the severity of lessons to be learnt. In-
dividuals with a great deal of pride and arrogance tend to experience
very painful lessons while those with a lower level tend to get less pain-
ful ones.
However, at the close of the year, its patrons are usually thankful
for the lessons owing to their realization of the cleansing effects it has
had on their psyche. January fills the bearers with big ambitions; Febru-
ary reshapes their worldview. March prompts them to begin anew;
April is cleansing, June forces them to be realistic. September is in-
tense; November is purgative while December is reorienting.
Year 8
A year 8 denotes a period of rewards and manifestations. It is fruitful
and rewarding if the individual has been positively engaged in the pre-
ceding years but scanty if the individual did not create enough positive
Karma through work previously.
Overly, it is a huge sigh of relief from the experiences of the previ-
ous year. It is commonplace for individuals undergoing this cycle to
122

Year 9
A year denotes a period of culmination or completion. It marks the
completion of the 9-year personal cycle. It is a period to take stock of
all lessons and activities witnessed in the 9 years, thereby making effort
to extract the wisdom inherent in the yearly lessons as well as round off
properly.
The energy level of the bearers of a year 9 are typically very low in
this year. Enthusiasm, drive, resourcefulness, vision and zeal are usual-
ly low. Hence, it is advised not to begin any new long-term project in
this year as any of such projects if began will most likely lack the nec-

month number for June 2015 for an individual born on September 19th
1993. Proceed in the following manner:

resultant values together. September 19th becomes:

19th = 1+9 = 10 = 1+0 = 1
9+1 = 10 = 1
2. Reduce the year in question to a single digit. 2015 becomes:
2015 = 2+0+1+5 = 26 = 2+6 = 8
3. Add the values of step 1 and 2 together to give the personal
year number for 2015.
1+8 = 9 personal year

month in question. June 2015 becomes:
June = 6th month = 6
Personal month = 9 personal year + 6th month
