Numerology is a term for the ancient study of numbers and how they relate to our lives. It is a philosophy that has many influences that are thousands of years old. There are three main forms of numerology in use today. They are Western - Pythagorean, Chaldean, and Hebrew-Kabbalah. They are different in specific ways. The Chaldean and Western systems are based on numerical interpretations of a letters position in the alphabet. The Kabbalah method is derived from a letters sound. The Western and Kabbalah methods use the numbers 1-9 and the Chaldean method only uses the numbers 1- 8, as the number 9 is held to have sacred significance.
The Chaldean number system arose in the Persian Gulf area in what used to be called Babylonia. In the Chaldean system the letters of the alphabet are assigned as follows: (9 is not used)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
A B C D E U O F
I K G M H V Z P

Kabbalah or Qabala Numerology arose out of Jewish mysticism. In this practice, it is believed that the Torah -the first
The Western or Pythagorean numerology has roots to the Greek philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras. He felt as though the universe could be expressed numerically. The Western system assigns the letters of the alphabet as follows:1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9A B C D E F G H IJ K L M N O P Q RS T U V W X Y ZThe Ancient Chinese had an ancient text known as the I Ching -"Book Of Changes" or "Classic of Changes". The book is based on a symbol system that is used much like numerology to understand natural and personal events. It was well established during the Zhou Dynasty and many believe that Confucius is responsible for later additions.The Ancient Egyptians believed that certain numbers had spiritual significance, especially the numbers 2, 3, 4, 7. These concepts were included in the "Book of the Dead".The Mayans were also very accomplished mathematicians and had strong religious views on the relationship between nature and numbers. The Mayans used a base 20 system as opposed to a base ten system.There is frequent mention of numbers being significant in the Bible. In Christianity, the God entity symbolized the number one. The Lord God is referred to as "The One". Other numbers with a common occurrence in the Bible are 2, 3, 4, 7, 12, and 40.In modern numerology there are concepts such as: Life Path Number or Soul number, personality number or destiny number and personal year and personal month. These are the concepts that are used when a psychic reading by numbers is given.

I'd like to ask your forgiveness, first of all, for being unable to speak to you tonight in your native language. But friends who have been attending my lectures to members of the Anthroposophical Society this week have assured me that it would be all right to speak to you on a spiritual scientific subject in German.
The local members have also suggested the underlying theme of this evening's talk; I am to speak on the relationship of spiritual science - or anthroposophy, as it may also be called - to Christianity. In order to do so, I must first say something about the nature and significance of what is meant by spiritual science, about the point of view from which I shall be speaking.
This spiritual science is not trying to found either a new religion or a new religious sect of any kind. It hopes to be able to fulfill the tasks required spiritually of our contemporary culture.
Several hundred years ago, the dawning of the modern scientific age signified an advance in human cultural life which can be compared to the steps we must now take in mankind's development if further progress is to be made. Natural science opened the modern age for mankind through the knowledge of external physical laws. Spiritual science should play a similar role in the present and near future in recognizing the laws of the realms of soul and spirit and applying them to ethical, social, and all other aspects of cultural life.
Although it is still misunderstood and misrepresented - and understandably so - it can trust the power and effectiveness of its truth when it considers the course of natural science at the beginning of the modern age. Natural scientists, too, had to face prejudices hundreds and even thousands of years old. But truth possesses powers which always help it to victory against any hostile forces.
Now that we have mentioned the trust the spiritual scientist has in the truth and effectiveness of his work, let us turn to the nature of that research which is the basis for this spiritual science.
The spiritual scientist's way of looking at things is wholly in keeping with the methods of natural science. However, it must certainly be clear that since spiritual science covers an entirely different field from the external sense-perceptible field covered by natural science, researching the spiritual realm requires a fundamental modification of the natural scientific approach. The methods of spiritual science are in keeping with those of natural science in the sense that any unprejudiced person trained in natural science can accept the premises of spiritual science. However, as long as the natural scientific method is conceived one-sidedly, as all too often happens today, then prejudice will be heaped upon prejudice when it comes to applying the natural scientific approach to spiritual life. Granted, natural scientific logic must be applied to what most concerns man but which is most difficult to investigate for that very reason. Granted, this way of thinking must be applied to the very being of man himself. Granted, in spiritual science man must examine his own nature, making use of the only tool that he has at his disposal - himself. The premise of spiritual science is that in becoming an instrument of investigation into the spiritual world, man has to undergo a transformation that enables him to look into the spiritual world, something he cannot do in ordinary life.Read more >>
