Like the nine planets in our solar system that govern our life, there are only nine numbers by which all the calculations on this earth are made. Beyond these nine numbers (1 to 9), all the rest are repetitions, as 10 is a 1 with a zero added, 11 is 1 plus 1, and so on. Every number, no matter how high, can be reduced to a single figure by what is called 'natural addition' from left to right.

At the initial level, there are only nine numbers to be considered. One has to master the occult meaning of theses numbers as they occur in the birth date.

Numerology is much simpler than astrology. It does not require complicated mathematical calculations. There are just three things a numerologist needs to know - birth details, the day of the week in which the person was born and his/her name. Based on these details the numerologist is able to tell a person about his nature, destiny, social interaction, and the right day to start ventures, relationship, selecting dwelling place and the year wise future of a person in general terms.

Numbers are an integral part of our lives; according to the laws of karma, even our breaths are numbered. From paupers to preachers, all live by numbers. If you are feeling lucky, playing those six lucky numbers in the lottery can make you into a millionaire. If you are short on luck, however, you could lose it all gambling, in business or in stocks.

In Vedic numerology there are 9 planets and 9 numbers, each number assigned to each planet. These are then further associated with colours and stones. See Chart 1.

Of all these numbers Moon and Mercury play the most major role in our lives. When Moon and Mercury become afflicted while transiting the zodiac, the majority goes through a turbulent time.

Most of the electrical failures happen when Mercury is retrograde or in an unfavorable position on the zodiac and it will be fair to blame Mercury for air crashes. When the mind (Moon) and intellect (Mercury) come under the influence of negative forces we experience nothing but chaos.
