Key to Understanding Numerology Meanings

Odd numbers are masculine. Even numbers are feminine. When I say masculine and feminine, I’m not talking about a specific gender. I mean the "traits" of masculine and feminine energy within us all.
Masculine: active, creative, thrusting, and cold
Feminine: passive, receptive, yielding and warm
Masculine and feminine tendencies are visible in both sexes. In fact, many numerology numbers for women are very masculine (included mine), and visa versa. We all know men who are gentle and nurturing. And, we also know women who are aggressive and cold.
The very strong tendencies of the numbers in numerology towards the masculine even now, indicates how the world is out of balance. The shift to balance began over 100 years ago with the women's movement. A lot of the turmoil we're experiencing in the world right now is a universal attempt to bring the earth into sync with the new Aquarian Age. Numerology meanings will shift as our consciousness shifts. The nurturing power of the feminine will become revered again as it was before, during the time of the Goddess.
Numerology numbers range from 1 to 9. The numbers 11 and 22 result in numerology calculations also, and should be reduced to 2 (1 + 1) and 4 (2 + 2). Numerologists work with 1 to 9, 11 & 22. We're going to concentrate on 1 to 9 in this article.

The Secrets of Numerology

Numerology meanings seem to have found there beginnings with Pythagoras, a Greek philosopher and mathematician, born in 570 BC. But, the idea of numbers and their spiritual significance was practiced heavily by our ancient ancestors in Mesoamerica simultaneously. The ancient Maya felt the universe, ages or cycles...everything could be broken down into numbers. Numbers were sacred and alive.
The magic of numerology takes your name or date of birth and reduces them down to single digits. Each digit from 1 to 9 has its own tendencies. The resultant number is said to reveal your key personality.
But the power of numerology meanings takes it a step further by considering the values of each number in your birthday. Most often your personality contains dominant and sub-dominant essences of several numbers. This showing where you are balanced and imbalanced.
Yet another step of refinement comes when you take your name and birth date numbers both. Your name has power and is not an accident. It reveals hidden clues you may not have been aware of. There could be a reason you don't like your name. This article will show you how to gain a better understand of yourself or another through numerology meanings.
