Harmonic Numerology: The Numerology of the Pythagoreans

Numbers are everywhere. Some are man-made-addresses, telephone numbers, and dates. Others are God-given-the speed of light, the strength of gravity, and the distance between the earth and sun. Pythagoras (570 BC - c. 495 BC), the father of Western philosophy, believed that numbers formed the foundation of the universe. He recognized that numbers have both a quantitative and a qualitative nature. The Pythagoreans discovered that all things can be understood by the qualitative nature of the numbers associated with their vibratory frequencies. Pythagorean numerology provides an elegant yet simple method for discovering the essential characteristics of any person, place, thing, event, or process, whether in the present, past, or future. Numerology is a self-help tool that can be used to gain insights into your character and personality. It describes the patterns and cycles that underlie the events of your life. It reveals your strengths and weaknesses as they ebb and flow throughout your life. It provides insights into the psychological dilemmas, the karmic lessons, and the spiritual meanings at each point of your journey.
