PLAY WITH NUMBERS

A Book of Numerology for Everyone from Beginners to Experts

Written By Dr. Deepak Sikka

Lesson 35

You might think that birthstones are only associated with the Zodiac signs. This is not exactly true. They are also associated with what month you are born in. The origin of the twelve monthly birthstones was thought to have originated in Bible as they were found on the breastplates of Aaron.

Yet another difference between the monthly and the Zodiac stones is that the monthly stones have more a numerological association whereas the Zodiac stones relate more to astrology.

January - The garnet is named as the January birth stone in just about every tradition or culture The glittering red garnet is the stone representing January in Hebrew, Roman, Arabic, Polish and Russian traditions. In the ancient Hindu tradition the stone for January was the serpent stone, but this is not a stone that has been seen by anyone. Chances are it was a ruby or a black stone.

February - The symbolic stone is agreed upon as being the amethyst according to North American, Hebrew, Roman, Arabic, Polish and Russian traditions. In ancient Hindu it was the chandrakankta which once again is a stone nobody living today has ever seen so it cannot be described.

March - Modern North America culture names the aquamarine as then stone for this month. However in Hebrew, Roman, Arabic, Polish and Russian traditions the stone for this stormy month is the bloodstone. In the ancient Hindu tradition it was a stone called gold-sivalinga which once again is not a stone ever seen by contemporary eyes.

April - North American culture names the diamond as the birth stone for April. In Jewish, Hindu and Polish cultures the diamond is also named as the April birthstone. However in Roma, Persian and Russian traditions, the stone that has symbolized the month is sapphire.

May - In contemporary North American, Arabic, Hindu, Polish and Russian traditions, the birthstone for the month of May is emerald. However the Hebrew and Roman traditions say the month belongs to the agate.

June - June is one of those months that seem to be symbolized by an array of stones. Contemporary North American culture names the stone of the month to be moonstone, pearl or alexandrite. Ancient Hindu tradition also names the pearl as the birthstone for June. However in ancient Roman and Hebrew traditions June was ruled by the emerald (possibly because the green represented summer.) In Russian, Polish and Arabic cultures the stone that rules this month is agate, which to make things even more confusing is a striped stone comes in many colors.

July- In North American, Polish and Russian culture the birthstone for this mid summer month is ruby. In Hebrew and Roman traditions it is onyx. The Arabic culture assigns the carnelian to July and the Hindu religion says a sapphire represents this month.

August - Many different stones are often said to belong to the month of August. The modern North American tradition says the month is symbolized by peridot. The Hebrew and Roman traditions attribute it to the carnelian. The Arabic and Polish traditions say the month belongs to the sardonyx. The Hindu tradition assigns August the ruby and the Russian tradition assigns it the alexandrite.

September - In modern North American traditions, this autumn monthis said to be ruled by the sapphire. However in Hebrew, Roman, Arabic, Polish and Russian traditions peridot is given as the ruling stone. The Hindu tradition assigns the zircon to September.

October - The opal or the tourmaline is usually assigned to October. However Hebrew, Roman, Arabic and Polish birth gem stone traditions say that aquamarine is the symbolic stone. The Russian culture says the month is ruled by the beryl. Ancient Hindu tradition says the stone is coral.

November - The North American tradition assigns either yellow topaz or citrine as the gemstones for this month. The Hebrew, Roman, Arabic and Russian traditions also say it belongs to topaz. November is symbolized by the cat's eye in the Hindu culture.

December - The North American tradition says December is symbolized by three choices of three blue stones: tanzanite, turquoise or blue topaz. The Hindu religion also assigns it to topaz, and the Russian and Polish traditions assign it to turquoise. The Arabic, Roman and Hebrew traditions say the rosy colored ruby rules this month.

This is interesting because very often your choice of a Zodiac stone will conflict with what is the birth month stone. Some of the stones also cross over to astrology. For instance if you are born in November the symbolic stone is topaz and if you are a Sagittarian born after the 23rd then your stone will be at topaz as well.

Lesson 36

One of the most brilliant books ever written about gems in general is "Love is in the Earth" by a channeller named Melody. This book, which details the metaphysical prosperities of the mineral world, also touches on the topic of gemstones and their numerical vibrations.

This is worth knowing that you can wear certain gemstones in order to amplify the powers of your own Life Path (the sum of your birth date) or Expression number (the sum of your name value.) You could have the stones set in a ring, a bracelet or in a pendant.

What follows is a breakdown of numerology numbers for each Life Path or Expression number, and the gemstones that you could wear to amplify the vibration of that gemstone.

Notice that some gemstones like the Bloodstone vibrate to more than one number. Some like the Period vibrate to several numbers.

This is by no means a comprehensive list, but looks at the most common stones that are used to be set in jewelry.

If you are a Life Path or Expression number -

One - Aquamarine, Beryl, Boji Stone, Copper, Cowrie, Lodestone, Mica, Muscovite, Obsidian, Sapphire, Sandstone, Turquoise

Notice that the number one gemstones are very distinctive and beautiful. Many are earthy such as the black obsidian and the sandstone.

Two - Garnet, Gold, Meteorite, Moldavite, Shell, Smokey Quartz, Spinel, Sugilite, Tanzanite, Tavorite, Tourmaline, Brown Tourmaline. The signature 2 stone is the garnet which has always symbolized love. The smokier colored stones symbolize emotional healing.

Three - Amber, Amethyst, Aventurine, Chrysoprase, Dolomite, Herkimer Diamond, Lapis Lazuli, Morganite, Pyrite, Ruby, Pink Sapphire, Sardonyx, Sugilite, Blue Topaz, Black Tourmaline, Tsavorite The stones for the number 3 tend to be quite flashy or distinctive in some way much like the person who numerologically fits the number.

Four - Ametrine, Bloodstone, Danburite, Emerald, Glass, Lead, Mochi Balls, Moonstone, Pumice, Clear Quartz, Black Sapphire, White Sapphire, Yellow Sapphire, Silver, Sodalite, Strombolite, Tiger Eye, Black Tourmaline, Zircon. There are a lot of stones that vibrate to the number 4 and many of them also vibrate to the feminine principle, as four is a number of family and healing.

Five - Alexandrite, Carnelian, Heliodor , Peridot, Zincite. These five stones symbolize travel just like the number does, as many of these materials were also used for money at one time or another in different cultures.

Six - Apache Tear, Bloodstone, Carnelian, Cat's Eye, Citrine, Glass, Jasper, Labrodorite, Marble, Mochi Balls, Moldavite, Onyx, Peridot, Green Sapphire, Star Sapphire, Green Tourmaline. Six is a number that has a lot to do with health and fertility and many of the stones that vibrate to this number promote the health of the reproductive system (Carnelian and Mochi Balls) or are prosperity stones (such as Peridot and Green Sapphire.)

Seven - Agate, Flourite, Iolite, Kunzite, Labrodorite, Pearl, Peridot, Petalite, Platinum, Rhodolite, Rose Quartz, Sugilite, Sulphur, Tin. Seven is the number of the genius and many of these stones have chameleon-like qualities (such as labrodorite that flashes different colors).

Eight - Calcite, Cinnabar, Coral, Dioptase, Ivory, Jet, Marcasite, Mica, Opal, Selenite, Serpentine, Smokey Quartz. Eight is the number of prosperity and the stones symbolizing this number vary from being very flashy (like opals and Mica) to very grounding such as ivory or jet.

Nine - Boji Stone, Chalcedony, Chrysoberyl, Diopside, Feldspar, Hematite, Malachite, Phenacite, Sandstone, Tektite, Yellow Topaz, Blue Tourmaline, Brown Tourmaline, Pink Tourmaline, Zebra Rock. This is a very spiritual number so meteorites like the tektite and stones with an electromagnetic healing charge like Hematite are part of its symbolic protection.

Eleven – Jade, Jade is a very wise stone so it is not surprising that it is one of the stones of the number of the wounded healer or teacher.

Twenty Two - Watermelon Tourmaline. This number twenty-two is a master number and the pink color symbolizes the ability to lead others.

Thirty-Three - Diamond, Yellow Tourmaline. Notice that the diamond is a stone of superiority in terms of spirituality and so is the master number 33.

You could also wear subsets of your numbers. For instance if you were born on the 26th, you could wear a gemstone that is an eight (such as an opal) with a tourmaline (which is a two) and a carnelian which is a six. So you can see how adding numerology to your jewelry design can be a very interesting adventure when it comes to choosing the stones that will best amplify your energies to the rest of the world.

Lesson 37

In numerology there is a very interesting concept called the karmic debt number. This is based on the idea that each of us is a spiritual being that is reincarnated again and again, and each time we reincarnate we reach higher states of awareness.

The idea of karma evolves from the idea that during several lived lifetimes we accumulate wisdom. We are also given gifts, which we either use or abuse. To rectify these mistakes we might take on an additional burden in our life to learn a lesson that we may not have learned in another life. In numerology this is referred to as a karmic debt.

The numbers that are said to reveal a Karmic Debt are 13, 14, 16 and 19. These double-digit numbers are very important if they are found in the Life Path, Soul, Personality or other numbers. Each type of number has its own set of difficulties and challenges.

When you are looking at your chart, you might encounter the numbers 1, 4, 5 or 7. These numbers are single digits that are calculated after adding together the aforementioned two digit numbers.

Reducing 19, 28, 37 and 46 usually arrives at the number 1. All of these total to 10 and then can be reduced numerological to 1. However not all of these numbers that add up to 10 can be considered to be karmic. Only the 19 reduced to ten is considered to be a Karmic Debt Number.

Karmic Debts are also found in the numbers 4, 5 and 7. These numbers become Karmic Debt numbers only when the 4 is found by reducing 13 (denoted "13/4") or when the 5 is reduced from a 14 ("14/5") or the 7 from a 16 ("16/7").

Karmic Debt Number 13

If you have a 13 preceding a 4 in your numerology reading then it means that you are destined to work off any karma through very hard work. Nothing is handed to you on a silver platter.

Those with this Karmic Debt Numbers may also find it hard not to repeat their mistakes. Or they may find that the same problems in their lives keep cropping up again and again.

Often people with this number feel burdened, and feel like all of their efforts are futile. They may give up on any goals or refuse to develop them in the first place. Many with this debt become bitter, lazy and negative.

It would be a mistake to think that having 13 as a Karmic number is bad. It can produce a rags to riches scenario, and gain great respect from others due to an evident ability to supercede great odds. The key is to maintain one's focus and persevere if you have this number. Establishing order and avoiding procrastinating also hugely helps this number.

Karmic Debt number 14

This number comes from previous lifetimes and indicates someone who may have abused the rights of others somehow. They may have been abusive, cruel or even murderous.

Those who have a 14 Karmic Debt number are forced to adapt to changing circumstances and unexpected events without warning. They are also prone to becoming the victims of addiction, including alcoholism and sex addiction.

This karmic number can cause codependency and difficulty in relationships. In fact relationships may be the bane of your existence, as they prevent you from focusing on your goals and dreams. Being flexible and adaptable helps avoid a lack of security.

Commitment is the big issue with the 14 Karmic Debt number. It is important to make your life your own and not make it all about another person.

Karmic Debt Number 16

This number is all about the cleansing of the ego and the separation of the soul from destructive influences. This is a painful number to have because usually the person has a great rise and then a great fall. You may be successful for a while and then suffer the worst case scenario.

This karmic number is about teaching people to be humble and to accept divine will. The humility that develops as a result of this hard fall usually serves the person well. The collapse can be personal, physical or financial.

Many people with this karmic debt number also have psychological collapses. The result is also often a "wounded healer."

If you have this number be careful not to become to egotistical or look down at others. The karmic retributions are usually harsh.

Karmic Debt Number 19

This is an odd lesson. You need to learn to be more human, and that you must interact with others. The 19 thinks they are the center of the universe and do it all themselves. Nothing could be further from the truth.

An incident usually takes place that teaches people with this number that to "rule" is truly to serve. They learn that we are all connected and often their karma takes the form of something that they did coming back to haunt them.

Karma is not bad. The purpose of it is to elevate our souls, even if it does depress us on the life plane. Knowing these numbers can help you know just what it is that you might be going through.

Lesson 38

Numerology has a great deal to do with the numeric value of the alphabet and there are many legends and theories about how this came about. The alphabet itself was inspired by pictorial representations that recorded elaborate stories. These full pictographs originally were abbreviated to form hieroglyphics with each symbol depicting a word. As more time elapsed the glyphs were further reduced to represent individual sounds and then the consonants and vowels that we know today.

The modern alphabet that numerological systems are based on is derived from an earlier hieroglyphic system that is still used by Japanese and Chinese cultures. Each letter also symbolizes a number. This has remained unchanged, even though our speech patterns have evolved to make some sounds obsolete.

Each sound is thought to also have an esoteric spiritual implication, with an essence that can be described as a number. Even more meaning is given to the very first letter of the word.

Here is a breakdown of the numerical vibrations of the letters in the alphabet according to ancient numerology systems that originated in Babylon and Egypt. In these systems, personality was analyzed by the first letter of the name.

A is the numerical equivalent of 1 and symbolizes confidence. When it's the first vowel in a name, the person tends to be bold. On the negative side, A can be critical of efforts of others.

B is the numerical equivalent of 2 and represents our emotions. A person with a B first letter is friendly and a homebody. On the negative side, B can be self absorbed if not a bit greedy.

C is the numerical equivalent of 3 and represents energy. C people are talented and get along well with others. Negatively, C people can be ruthless and cruel.

D is the numerical equivalent of 4 and represents balance. It is very powerful and is the letter associated with business. When it is the first consonant in a name the person is very tired. On the negative side a D person can be stubborn.

E is the second vowel in the alphabet and is the numerical equivalent of 5. It is a is warm hearted, loving and compassionate. The E can be unreliable and a bit flaky.

F is the numerical equivalent of 6 and represents love. It is warm-hearted, compassionate, and easy going. When it is the first consonant in a name it carries the vibration of a nurturer. Negatively, F people can be prone to self-pity.

G is the numerical equivalent of 7 and represents mysticism and religious experiences. This letter is imaginative, creative, and helpful. When it is the first consonant in a name, the bearer will tend to be a loner. G's don't listen well to others.

H is the numerical equivalent of 8 and represents creativity and power. This letter has a great deal of business talent. Negatively, it can be self absorbed and greedy.

I is the third vowel of the alphabet and is the numerical equivalent of 9. It represents law and as a general rule is sensitive, compassionate and humane. On the negative side people with this first letter can be ill-tempered.

J is the numerical equivalent of 1 and represents our aspirations. This letter is truthful, benevolent and intelligent. When it is the first consonant in a name the bearer will possess an unyielding desire to not give up and will therefore find success - eventually. Negatively, J can be lazy and lack direction.

K is the numerical equivalent of 2 and represents a person that goes to extremes. K people are strong willed and influential. Negatively, K can be dissatisfied with life and take their discontent out on others.

L is the numerical equivalent of 3 and represents action. It is charitable and well adjusted but can be somewhat accident prone.

M is the numerical equivalent of 4 and represents spirituality. This letter has a great deal of self confidence and is therefore likely to achieve success. The drawback is that people with this letter can be workaholics.

N is the numerical equivalent of 5 and represents imagination. It is intuitive and communicative, but negatively can be predisposed to jealousy.

O is equates to the number 6. This letter represents patience, compentence and is particularly studious. The drawback of being an O is being a bit of a drama queen.

P is the numerical equivalent of 7 and represents power. When it is the first consonant in a name the bearer is likely to think of spiritual matters. Negatively, P people can be selfish and flaky.

Q is the numerical equivalent of 8 and represents originality. It symbolizes genius and the unknowable. Negatively, Q can be too self absorbed.

R is the numerical equivalent of 9 and is tolerant and humane but has a tendency to become short tempered. When it is the first consonant in a name the bearer will often act as a diplomat.

S is the numerical equivalent of 1 and represents beginnings. S people are very sexy. Negatively, S can act impulsively without concern for others.

T is the numerical equivalent of 2 and represents growth. It is a restless letter which seeks answers to spiritual questions. Negatively, T is overly emotional, indecisive and is often easily influenced by the opinions of others.

U is the final true vowel in the alphabet and is the numerical equivalent of 3. The U person is very lucky in all ways. Negatively, U can be selfish, greedy and indecisive.

V is the numerical equivalent of 4 and represents construction. It is an industrious letter which is tireless and efficient. However V people can also be ruthless.

W is the numerical equivalent of 5 and represents self-expression. These first letter people are artistic. Negatively, W can be greedy and take too many risks.

X is the numerical equivalent of 6 and represents sexuality. This letter is very sexy. Unfaithfulness is an unpleasant character trait as well.

Y is the penultimate letter in our alphabet and is the numerical equivalent of 7. This number loves freedom and dislikes restraint of any kind. However Y can be indecisive and lazy.

Z is the final letter in our alphabet and is the numerical equivalent of 8. It represents hope and peace. Negatively, Z first letter people often act without thinking and without regard for others.

As you can see this is quite a different way of looking at name numerology but it is also a very ancient way that is often very accurate.

Lesson 39

In previous lessons I have discussed how the day of the month on which we are born plays a part in our numerology chart.

The month in which we were born in also has a great influence on our character; in many older forms of numerology this was used to analyze a person's early years.

Our calendar is based on the Gregorian Calendar which has been in use since the late sixteenth century. It is a slightly different version of the Julian Calendar that was first used by Julius Caesar in 46 B.C. The Gregorian calendar is also known as the solar calendar because it is a representation of the Sun's orbit around the earth.

The month we were born has a great influence on our character and gives an indication of how our younger, more formative years will influence our adult lives. The events that occur can help to shape our life path which is in activation primarily from the ages of 28 to 56.

If you were born in January, the number 1 rules your early years. You are independent, analytical and a born leader. However you can also be a little thoughtless as you take action without consulting others. You are also creative and tend to stand out from the crowd.

If you were born in February, the number 2 will be important to you. You are especially intuitive. Relationships are especially important to you, and you may spend a lot of your life searching for that special someone. Women are especially influential on your character development in your early years.

If you were born during March, the number 3 will figure prominently in your life. You often find yourself in the right place at the right time. You may also be destined for fame, and you tend to be wealthier than others. However it can be difficult for you to hold onto a relationship, and instances of infidelity and betrayal often plague your relationships.

If you were born in April the number 4 strongly influences your early years. You may be perceived as having a temper problem. On the other hand, you are also very creative and intelligent. You are a born leader who is very ambitious, and your natural charisma will have you attracting many friends and lovers throughout your lifetime.

If you were born in May, the number 5 will play a significant role in your life. Self expression may be important to you and you may be a talented musician, actor or writer. You have a high respect for authority and you believe in the sanctity of marriage. You value your friends highly and spend a lot of time socializing.

If you were born in June, the number 6 is significant. You are a very romantic individual but alas a very jealous one. Your love life tends to be very complicated. A career in the creative arts suits you best. Your biggest character flaw is a tendency to spread rumors about other people.

If you were born in July, the number 7 is important. You are a sincere, candid and empathic individual. You care deeply for your family and will go to great lengths to maintain and protect your relatives. You can be cynical and sarcastic, which can sometimes get you into trouble with your loved ones.

If you were born in August, you will strongly identify with the number 8. You are destined to become a pillar of the community. You are a loving well rounded individual who values marriage, and strives to see the good in everyone. One of your weaknesses is developing health related problems from working too hard.

If you were born in September, the number 9 is significant in your character development. You are destined to play many roles in your lifetime. You are highly intelligent and spiritual, but tend to take adversity very personality. Your biggest weakness is becoming depressed when you lose your faith in yourself and God.

If you were born in October, the number 10, which is a higher vibration of 1, will be significant. You are naturally very lucky. When you decide on a goal you almost always meet it. The downside of your personality is that you can be very adversarial when crossed, and you also have a huge capacity for revenge.

If you were born in November, the number 11 - which is a higher vibration of 2 - will be of great importance to you. You are psychic, empathetic and positive. However sometimes you get overwhelmed by your own sensitivity and develop stress related health and psychological problems such as chronic fatigue and depression.

If you were born in December, you have a strong affinity to the number 12, which is a higher vibration of 3. You are a practical philosopher who values a stable lifestyle. You are also unusually lucky, and wealth and love find you easily. You also have an active social life, sometimes to the extent that you can ignore your other responsibilities.
