I have been given an opportunity to share the Key to Chaldean Numerology thanks to someone who transcribed it from Linda Goodman's Star Seeds book. This offers the complete breakdown of number values and how to calculate their meanings. Note that this is extensive--but VERY helpful in metaphysical knowledge:
==============================
4 & 8 - The Numbers of Fate and Destiny
These numbers are known, especially when combined, as the numbers of Fate and the numbers of Karma. Hard luck seems to pursue those whose lives are dominated by the 4 and the 8.
When the 4 or the 8 is the single key number of birth, the number has been chosen by that person, before birth, as a way to balance heavy karmic debts. On the level of awareness between incarnations the full importance of the karmic chain is comprehended. The obligation to balance these debts, which have been delayed or put off through many incarnations, is realized and acted upon. A good analogy would be the student who doesn't study for the big exam until the night before and then has to "cram" to get the material learned/memorized.
The single number of the name being a 4 or an 8 is an entirely different matter, since (in most cases) you don't choose your own name. Your parents chose it for you; therefore, to change your name to equal a more fortunate number is not unduly interfering with karma. It's a free will of choice and a sensible way to make your path in this existence a little smoother and less fatalistic.
When 4 or 8 is the birth number care should be taken to avoid these numbers in all other ways, such as phone numbers or addresses which add up to a 4 or 8. Also, avoid taking important action or planning major events for any dates that equal 4 or 8. If you don't, the power of the 4 and 8 are increased and become much more powerfully fatalistic.
8
Those people whose birth number is 8 are more "children of Fate" than those influenced by the number 4. So, we will discuss the number 8 first. They can be just as strong of character, as noble, devoted, hard-working and self-sacrificing as others, but may feel they don't receive the rewards or recognition they deserve. They will often reach a position of high authority, but it burdens them with stressful responsibilities, great anxiety and long hours. 8 people often accumulate great wealth, but it does not bring happiness.
Also, the person influenced by the 8 is often required to pay too high a price for love, which almost always brings suffering of some kind.
An important thing to remember is this: Some 8 people may prefer to carry out the full force and meaning of the 8 influence, not fearing the consequences. This is because they feel that forewarned is forearmed, and they feel they can handle the negative aspect of the 8 vibration. If the 8 person feels this way, then they should do all they can to increase the influence of the 8, by planning events on dates that equal 8 and changing their name to equal the number 8.
In doing this the chance for material success will increase, but so too will the fatalistic stamp upon their life. Be warned; if you do increase the power of the 8 deliberately, the number 4 must be avoided wherever possible - because it's the combination of these two numbers that brings strong magnetic negative influence to bear upon them. This is why 4 people should never increase the power of the 4 since a double 4 equals 8.
4
According to the Chaldeans, the number 4 as a birth number is not quite so heavy an influence as the 8. People with a 4 birth number will find that days equaling 4 are of major significance (both positive and negative) in their lives. Their own addresses and phone numbers, etc. will be 4's or 8's more often than can be attributed to chance. If your birth number is 4 check this out, you may be surprised!
The rare few who have chosen 4 as their birth number are illuminated souls who have evened out all past karma in previous lives. They have incarnated this time to "rescue" a kindred soul who has become, or is in danger of becoming, a fallen angel. In these cases, the 4 vibration is an extremely protective influence, and should not be dreaded, but recognized as a helpful means to discipline one's self in this incarnation.
==============================
1) The numbers 11 and 22 are called Master Numbers. This means that when being added to another number, they may not be reduced – i.e. – the number 11 may not be added to make the number 2 and the number 22 may not be added to make the number 4. These 2 Master Numbers must always be added to other numbers in the numerology process as 11 and 22.
2) Only when the total of the numerical value of the name is 11 or 22 may these numbers be added to produce the single 2 or 4 to equal the single Key Number of birth.
3) The single numbers 1 through 9 are called the root numbers; they belong to the physical or material side of the person/entity. They denote what the person/entity appears to be in the eyes of the world.
4) The double or compound numbers belong more to the spiritual side of life, they indicate the hidden karmic influences behind the scenes, and foreshadow the destiny of the individual.
5) The name numbers (compound and single) are the basic definition of that person/entity. The birth numbers are like the “details” of that person/entity.
When you have learned how to use numerology according to the rules and the correct method of calculation, you will find it surprisingly useful. The study and practical application of numerology is not contrary to anyone’s religious beliefs, rather it is one of the aspects of Universal Harmonics; and a way to achieve (if used properly) Synchronization to Nature’s laws.
While fate may create the basic framework for your learning/growth experiences on this plane, you need not give up and submit blindly to negative experiences. Not only will you discover more about yourself and others, but you will be able to observe karmic patterns at work everywhere. Always remember: You are in charge of your own fate/destiny through your power of free will and choice.

==============================
The Number 1
The number 1 vibrates to the Sun. It represents creativity, protection, and benevolence. It is the originator of all action, the initiating basis of all other numbers. You are influenced by the 1 if born on the 1st, 10th, 19th, or 28th day of any month.
The 1 person demands, and usually gets, respect; they insist on organizing and controlling everything and everyone around them. The underlying desire is to be inventive, creative, and strongly original. These people are quite definite in their views, and can be stubborn when thwarted. They dislike restraint, and must feel free. They will almost always rise to some position of authority in whatever they undertake. They insist on being looked up to by their mate, friends, relatives, co-workers, and even the boss!
They’ll protect the weak, defend the helpless, and take on the burdens of others as long as those "others" will do exactly as the 1 person dictates. They know everything better than everyone else, and consider their opinions to be superior if not flawless. The great majority of the time they are right, which understandably annoys the people they lecture. They’re strong on lectures, but the 1 person is unbelievably susceptible to compliments. Genuine appreciation will get them to bend over backward to please.
Pride is their weakest point. When appreciated and respected, no one can be more generous and benevolent, but they can be dangerous when ignored or slighted. Being in love and being loved is as vital to them as the air they breathe. Although their disposition is easily wounded, the transgressors are quickly forgiven after they apologize. The only way to "win" a confrontation with a 1 person is to be humble, say you’re truly sorry, and you will be graciously excused. The number 1 person resents familiarity from strangers, but is extremely warm and affectionate with those who are loved and trusted. There is a fondness for children and young people, but often sadness connected with a child. The 1 person enjoys fine clothes, jewels, and impressive cars. All 1 people are blessed with a visible sense of dignity.
The number 2 vibrates to the Moon. It represents the imagination, parenthood, and sensitivity. 2 is the number of conception, childbirth, and dreams. You are influenced by the number 2 if born on the 2nd, 11th, 20th, or 29th day of any month.
The 2 person is a dreamer, with a tendency to fear the unknown or unfamiliar. They are extremely imaginative and inventive, but not always as forceful as they could be in carrying out their plans and ideas. Not all, but most 2 people are seldom as strong as those born under the single birth numbers 1, 3, 6, or 9. These people possess a very romantic nature, and are secretly psychic. Their intuition is highly developed.
One of the traits that 2 people need to guard against is "fearing shadows of fears". A 2 person fears every conceivable kind of loss; loss of love, property, money, friendship, employment, loss of loved ones through death or any kind of separation. 2 people need roots and although they love to travel, they must have a home to return to. They are fanatically devoted to or involved with the parents, especially the mother. They make ideal parents themselves, but must be careful not to smother their child with possessive love.
2 is the "chicken soup" vibration, since all 2 people are very concerned with the well- being of friends and relatives. They are extremely cautious and dislike taking chances. They are good with money, and like to accumulate it in a safe, stable way, then invest it well. 2 people are secretive and rarely let anyone know what their nest move will be, but are experts at wheedling out secrets from others! They will veer from right to left to backward to forward in a surprisingly aggressive manner toward their goals.
The 2 person is charitable (especially with family), but will not accept charity themselves, it seems to them to be a failure on their part to protect their assets. When 2 people learn to overcome fear, possession, and unnecessary caution, their imagination, adaptability, and intuition can carry them to fulfillment of their many dreams.
The number 3 vibrates to the planet Jupiter. It represents idealism, higher education, foreign travel, and religion. 3 is the number of optimism, movement, expansion, and of the Holy Trinity of the mind, body, and spirit. You are influenced by the number 3 if born on the 3rd, 12th, 21st, or 30th of any month.
The 3 person bases every action upon the foundation of a great ideal (even if they are misguided and the action is a negative one). They aim high for the truth, and nothing less will satisfy them, whether it involves love, friendship, career, politics or religion. They are not easily put off by evasive answers or deception, and they can spot a lie, distortion, or dishonesty a mile away.
Some of them achieve their goal of truth, others are misled into believing their own illusions, but they never stop searching. The 3 person is fiercely independent, seeks total freedom of speech and movement and will not be tied down. Travel is an absolute necessity, thereby allowing them to learn everything they can about other places, cultures, and philosophies, and religions.
3 people look for the positive side of everything, and their optimism is contagious. Because of their quest for the truth the 3 person tends to be agnostic, atheist, or fiercely devoted to a religious principle. Their attitude toward a belief system is never neutral.
Physical challenge inspires the 3 person, so often sports play a major role. They are shockingly blunt of speech, candid to a fault, and outraged by duplicity of any kind. There is a genuine love of animals and a strong tendency to defend the underdog (human) with the same loyalty they show their pets. But they can be indifferent to family ties, and marriage works best when freedom is total. The 3 vibration is associated with tests of physical strength, gambling, and risk taking.
3 people often display an odd blend of the wise philosopher and the happy go lucky clown, and a sense of responsibility may be lacking. Pursuing an education matters a great deal to 3 people and they are crushed when denied the "halls of higher learning" for whatever reason. 3 people make good lawyers, detectives or public activists as their search for the truth never rests.
The number 4 vibrates to the planet Uranus. It represents individualism, originality, inventiveness, and tolerance. 4 is the number of unconventional behavior and sudden, unexpected events, also of genius. You are influenced by the number 4 if born on the 4th, 13th, 22nd or 31st day of any month.
4 people are seldom understood by their friends and family. They are an enigma to everyone they know. They make their own rules and these rules don’t always match those of society. Marked individuality colors every thought and action. If there is a different way to do something, the 4 person will find it. Their speech and actions often shock others, and it is usually done deliberately. 4 people live in the future, caring little about the present. They are light years ahead of others in their ideals and ideas, and along with this goes an innate talent for prophecy. Their lifestyle ranges from unconventional to bizarre, yet their "crazy" ideas are successful more often than not.
Anything off the beaten path appeals to the 4 person’s questing curious nature. They are deeply convinced of the reality of "whatever can be conceived can be achieved". To be told a thing is impossible only intensifies the 4 person’s resolve to prove it IS possible. They are fascinated by UFOs, Bigfoot, and the Loch Ness Monster.
Although the 4 vibration advocates change in every area of life, these people are very reluctant to accept change in their own personal habits. They can be quite stubborn when people try to dictate to them or mold them into a more acceptable social pattern. Because prophets are often unrecognized in their own time, their grandest and truest visions are often ridiculed or ignored.
Tolerance and friendship are vital to the 4 person, and they usually have lots of friends from all walks of life. Money means little to them and they will mix with kings as well as paupers. Class distinction means nothing to them, they have no desire to impress anyone. One of their finest virtues is "live and let live", and they expect the same consideration from others.
Be sure to read about the special relationship between the Numbers 4 and 8.
The number 5 vibrates to the planet Mercury. It represents communication, movement, and versatility. It is the number of the intellect and both written and oral expression. You are influenced by the number 5 if born on the 5th, 14th or the 23rd of any month.
5 people possess a great deal of natural charm, and as a general rule, are innately courteous. They are quick to spot mistakes and flaws, and will not hesitate to point them out. The 5 vibration is super critical and incapable of ignoring mistakes, and is associated with a love of movement and travel. Change is a never-ending necessity for 5 people. They have a tendency to over analyze people and situations. It is difficult for the 5 person to submit to the feelings and the intuition; the intellect is determined to find logical answers to everything! This over analytical nature can ruin relationships of all kinds for the 5 person.
Still, people enjoy being in the company of a 5 person, since the outward persona is usually pleasant and soothing. Because 5 is the vibration of the intellect, those under its influence are very bright, highly intelligent and mentally alert. Nothing escapes their notice, analyzation and possibly their criticism.
According to the ancients, the number 5 has long been associated with what is called "earth magic" (hence, the Wiccan symbol of the pentagram). The number 5 brings a longing to believe in magic, elves, fairies, and the mysteries of Nature, along with the need to pin everything down and view it with a mental microscope. This is in direct conflict with the other major quality of the 5, making it difficult for the 5 person to understand themselves.
As a result 5 people are often high strung; they live their lives on nerves and crave excitement. They’re quick in thought and decision, often impulsive in their actions. They have a keen sense of new ideas and inventions, are willing to take risks, and are born speculators. 5 people possess an admirable elasticity of viewpoint, and the ability to rebound swiftly from the blows of fate, which seem to leave no lasting impression on them. 5 people are well suited to writing, advertising, public relations and publishing.
The number 6 vibrates to the planet Venus. It represents the feminine essence, compassion, and money. 6 is the number of love and romance. You are influenced by the number 6 if born on the 6th, 15th or the 24th day of any month.
6 people seem to magnetically attract others to them. They are genuinely loved by family and friends, and when they become attached themselves, they are devoted to the one they love. There is more idealism and affection than sensualism in the love nature. The 6 person is a born romantic with a strong sentimental streak, no matter how hard they try to hide it.
The 6 vibration brings a love of art and a deep affinity for music. 6 people love nice homes and tasteful furnishings, in harmony with their surroundings. They also love to entertain their friends and to make people happy. They cannot abide discord, arguments, unpleasantness or jealousy, yet they can display many of these characteristics themselves! The 6 person makes friends easily, and often ends up settling disputes between relatives, friends and business associates.
Money often comes to them without effort. But they need to be careful not to be too extravagant or too stingy, as they are seldom neutral about finances. Most 6 people are deeply attached to nature in some way and love spending time outdoors. A quiet wood or a babbling brook is like a tranquilizer on their emotions. A fondness for luxury marks the 6 vibration, ugliness is often very offensive to them. Their manners are usually impeccable, but if they feel strongly about anything they won’t hesitate to make their feelings known. 6 people enjoy debating, and because of their logic and irresistible smiles, usually win.
The number 7 vibrates to the planet Neptune. It represents spirituality, sensitivity, sympathy, and mystery. 7 is the number of illusion and delusion, sometimes deception – but also the number of healing, miracles, and faith – and dreams that come true. You are influenced by the number 7 if born on the 7th, 16th or 25th day of any month.
7 people tend to have remarkable dreams. Sometimes they talk about them and sometimes they prefer not to. But they do dream more than most. Secretly they have an intense interest in esoteric mysteries, mythology, UFOs, and the entire realm of the unknown. They often possess gifts of clairvoyance and intuition and a certain calming quieting magnetism that has a great influence on others. The 7 vibration is associated with peculiar ideas about religion, a dislike of following the beaten path, and a tendency to adopt political beliefs that are unique and somewhat unorthodox. It is not uncommon for a 7 person to discover, found, or believe in a new religious concept.
The 7 person will either travel or read avidly books on foreign lands and people. Many 7 people are strongly attracted to the sea and will enjoy sailing, water sports or anything that brings them to the water. The 7 person tends to be anxious about the future, so they need a financial rock somewhere in the background. Even though 7 people can accumulate large sums of money, they care little for material possessions and are likely to make large contributions to charities and institutions.
In their own quiet, laid back way 7 people have ambitions they don’t discuss with others, and these are always tinged with a philosophical outlook. They bless others with the grace of their sympathetic understanding of pain and suffering, which is why friends, relatives, and associates unburden themselves to them.
However the 7 person likes their privacy and tend to keep their own problems to themselves. They shrink from prying questions, and have nightmares about "big brother" or anything they consider to be an invasion of their privacy. Refined manners, an artistic temperament, and a sensitive nature make up the 7 essence, but don’t let that fool you, you might be surprised if you knew all the strange thoughts that swim through the 7 person’s mind. If you can coax them to talk about what they are thinking, you will be fascinated by the secrets you will learn from their Neptunian world.
The number 8 vibrates to the planet Saturn. It represents wisdom, learning through experience, stability, patience, and responsibility. 8 is also the number of financial security, caution, restriction, self discipline, and self control. You are influenced by the number 8 if born on the 8th, 17th, or 26th day of any month.
8 people are normally quiet, reserved, and shy. They don’t obviously push ahead, but slowly and surely will get there. This shyness and reticence is a cover for an intense drive to get to the top of their chosen profession. They make excellent teachers and counselors, most of them could be successful in the tough game of politics, as they excel at anything that requires patience and intelligent deduction. The 8 person may have poor health as a child, but tend to grow more robust when they reach maturity, and longevity is common.
It is rare to find an 8 person goofing off, they have a sense of duty and responsibility that won’t allow them to take a careless attitude toward what is expected of them. Most people born under the number 8 are as reliable as a grandfather clock, and as cozy as a grandma quilt to be around. They have a rich sense of humor, but it is subtle, so one must watch for it. Most 8 people have very deep and intense natures and great inner strength. There is a tendency toward fanaticism in religion, and they will stick by what they believe, against all opposition. They make loving friends, but bitter enemies.
Although 8 people appear to be cold, they can be shyly affectionate and warmly devoted. They are often lonely and need desperately to be loved, and are capable of great sacrifice for an ideal, ambition, or for those who depend on them. 8 people are as demanding of themselves as they are of others, but for all the outward attitude of wisdom, maturity and self-control the 8 person’s heart is lonely and longing. They need to learn that pursuit of happiness is not a sin.
Be sure to read about the special relationship between the Numbers 4 and 8.
The number 9 vibrates to the planet Mars. It represents aggressive action, penetration, courage, and conflict. 9 is the number of originality and initiative as well as the contradictory traits of vulnerability and naivete. You are influenced by the number 9 if born on the 9th, 18th or 27th of any month.
9 people are not stubborn, but they are determined to get what they want, and there is a difference. Stubbornness reacts, and determination initiates. 9 brings a tendency to be impulsive and make snap decisions later regretted. Although temper will flare frequently, these people are quick to forgive and forget an injury. They are vulnerable to their enemies because their first instinct is to trust everyone. They are so direct themselves they expect everyone to be the same. Deviousness and manipulation almost always come as a shock to 9 people.
As a general rule they are incapable of such behavior themselves, and it catches them off guard. One of the most beneficial virtues of the 9 vibration is the ability to penetrate straight to the heart of any situation. Unfortunately this makes the 9 person very impatient of slow thinkers, which may not help them win popularity contests. In fact, impatience with the mistakes of others and errors in thinking on the part of others, is one of the traits 9 people find most difficult to control. The familiar catch phrase "what you see is what you get" perfectly describes the 9 personality. It so much easier for them to get what they want from people by asking directly than by playing games.
Often such straightforwardness is unexpected by the other person that the 9 person gets what they want by catching the "opposition" by surprise. Many people are touched by the visible vulnerability of the 9 person, and feel protective of them, while others may see these qualities as foolish. This may cause a lack of respect, until that Mars temper and courageous spirit show themselves and the pure energy of the 9 makes the other person jump backward.
There is a strong tendency toward vanity, but its real root of this attitude is fear of rejection. Underneath all the bravado, 9 people inwardly tremble with a lack of confidence. They need assurance that they are liked, respected, admired, and loved. Generous to a fault, 9 people need no lesson in giving. Their first instinct is to give, let go, and let tomorrow take care of itself.
10 is symbolized by Isis and Osiris, or the Wheel of Fortune. A number of rise and fall, according to personal desire. The name will be known for good or evil, depending on the action chosen. 10 is capable of arousing the extreme responses of love or hate, respect or fear. There is no middle ground between honor and dishonor.
Every event is self-determined. 10 is the symbol of LOVE and, LIGHT which create all that can be imagined, and also contains the code: Image (10) Ordain. Imagine it, and it shall be. Ordain it and it shall become. The power for manifesting creative concepts into reality is inherent, but must be used with wisdom, since the power for absolute creation contains the polarity power of absolute destruction. Due to these contradictory powers, self-discipline and infinite compassion area must. Discipline must precede Dominion.
Unfortunately some 10 people fail to realize their power potential, and consequently harbor deep seated feelings of frustration, causing them to feel unfulfilled, and as a result cause them to occasionally behave in an arrogant manner to hide these feelings of inferiority.
# 11 - A LION MUZZLED - A CLENCHED FIST
This is a number of hidden trials and treachery from others. It represents two members of the same or the opposite sex - or two opposed situations. In either case, compatibility of interest is lacking and interference from a third force must be conquered. The difficulties may also arise from the illusion of separation. It's necessary to unite divided goals to avoid a sense of frustrated incompletion. The third, interfering force can be a person or an idea; and it can take the form of a refusal to see the other side as an obstacle to harmony. The origin of the separating force must be identified, an attempt made to seek compromise. Occasionally, conflicting desires within one's own self are seen as in a reflecting mirror. Two forces or two desires stand apart and must ultimately unite for happiness. Yet, each must remain individual, even after being joined, for each possesses its own worth.
#12 - THE SACRIFICE - THE VICTIM
One will periodically be sacrificed for the plans or intrigues of others. The number 12 warns of the necessity to be alert to every situation, to beware of false flattery from those who use it to gain their own ends. Be suspicious of those who offer a high position, and carefully analyze the motive. Although duplicity is not always present, forewarned is forearmed. There is a degree of mental anxiety, caused by the need to sacrifice personal goals to the ambition of others. A secondary meaning of this number should be considered. The figure '1' is the teacher [whether it be a person or Life itself]. The figure '2'2 is the kneeling, submissive student. Sometimes, the result of severe emotional stress land mental anguish creates amnesia, forgetfulness of all levels, the submission of the will required and the sacrifices necessary to achieve knowledge and wisdom, on both the spiritual and the intellectual levels. When the intellect is sacrificed to the feelings, the mind will be illuminated with the answers it seeks. Look within for the solution. Attention paid to the requirements of education will end suffering and bring success.
#13 - REGENERATION - CHANGE
'13' is not an unlucky number, as many people believe. The ancients claimed that 'he who understands how to use the number '13' will be given power and dominion.' The symbol of '13' is a skeleton, or death, with a scythe, reaping down men in a field of new grown grass, where young faces and heads appear to be thrusting through the ground and emerging on all sides. '13' is a number of upheaval, so that new ground may be broken. It's associated with power, which, if used for selfish purpose, will bring destruction upon itself. There is a warning of the unknown and the unexpected. Adapting to change gracefully will bring out the strength of the '13' vibration, and decrease any potential for negative. '13' is associated with genius - also with explorers, breaking the orthodox and new discoveries of all kinds. If you were born on the 13th day of any month - or should the Compound Key Number of your name be '13' - you'll need to read careful the section of this chapter related to the numbers '4' and '8'.
#14 - MOVEMENT - CHALLENGE
Magnetic communication with the public through writing, publishing, and all media related matters is associated with the '14'. Periodic changes in business and partnerships of all kinds are usually beneficial. Dealing with speculative matters brings luck; likewise, movement and travel associated with combinations of people and nations can be fortunate. However, both gains and losses are sometimes temporary, due to the strong currents of change, which are ever-present. '14' warns of danger from accidents related to natural elements, i.e., fire, flood, earthquakes, tornados, hurricanes, tempests, and so forth. [This is not an absolute, merely a warning to be cautious.] There is risk involved in depending on the word of those who misrepresent a situation. It's a mistake to rely on others. Rely, on the intuition, the self, the voice within. The 'luck' of '14' includes money dealings and speculative projects, or 'betting.' but there's always a danger of loss due to wrong advice from others, or overconfidence.
#15 - THE MAGICIAN
'15' is a number of deep esoteric significance, the alchemy vibration through which all magic is manifested. It's extremely lucky and carries the essence of enchantment with it. '15' is associated with good talkers, eloquence of speech, and the gifts of music, art, and the drama. It bestows upon the person or entity represented by it a dramatic temperament and strong personal magnetism; a curiously compelling charisma. The '15' vibration is especially fortunate for obtaining money, gifts, and favors from others, because of its powerful appeal to the altruistic nature of people. However, there are no roses without thorns, and the ancients warn that '15' rules the lower levels of occultism when it is associated with the single numbers '4' or '8'. Such people will use every art of magic - even black magic, hypnosis, and mental suggestion - to carry out their purpose. Or the contrary is true. The '4' or '8' person will become the victim of others using the same methods. Consequently, if the 15th is the birth date, and name number is 4, 13, 22, or 31, the spelling of the name should be changed to equal a Compound number that reduces to the Single number 1, such as 10 or 19. If the birth date is the 15th, and the name number.
The Number 16 - "The Shattered Citadel"
16 is pictured by the ancient Chaldeans as a "tower struck by lightning, from which a man with a crown on his head is falling." It warns of strange fatality, also a danger of accidents and the defeat of one's plans. If the name equals 16, it would be wise to change the spelling of the name to avoid this vibration. If the birth date is the 16th of any month, the challenge of the 16 must be carefully met. To avoid the fatalistic tendency of the 16 as a birth number, one must be sure to make all plans in advance, paying careful attention to detail. The 16 brings with it the single number 7's obligation and responsibility to listen to the voice within, which will always warn of danger through dreams or the intuition in time to avoid it.
The Number 17 - "The Star of the Magi"
This is a highly spiritual number, and was expressed in symbolism by the ancient Chaldeans as the 8-pointed star of Venus. The Star is the image of love and peace, and promises that the person or entity it represents will rise superior in spirit to the trials and difficulties of earlier life, with the ability to conquer former failures in personal relationships and the career. 17 is the number of immortality and indicates that the person's name will live after him. This is an extremely fortunate compound number, with one warning: it reduces to the single number 8, so it's important to read the special section about 4 and 8.
The Number 18 - "Spiritual - Material Conflict"
Of all numbers, 18 has the most difficult symbolism to translate. 18 symbolizes materialism striving to destroy the spiritual side of the nature. It often associates the person/entity represented by it with bitter quarrels within the family circle - with wars, social upheaval and revolution. In some cases it indicates making money or achieving position through divisive tactics, through war or other conflicts. It warns of treachery from friends, enemies and the elements. If the compound number of the name is 18 it should be negated immediately by changing the spelling of the name to a more fortunate number. If the birth number is 18, extreme caution and care must be taken to meet the challenges of the 18.
The Number 19 - "The Prince of Heaven"
19 is one of the most fortunate and favorable of all compound numbers. It is symbolized as the sun, and is called the Prince of Heaven because it indicates victory over all temporal failure and disappointment. It blesses the person or entity represented by it with all the power of the compound number 10, without the inherent dangers of 10's abuse. This number promises happiness and fulfillment as well as success in all ventures and the personal life. Though the other numbers associated with 19 may have a negative vibration, the power of 19 will smooth the path and greatly dilute any negativity.
The Number 20 - "The Awakening"
In addition to being called the Awakening, this Compound number is also pictured by the ancient Chaldeans as "The Judgment". It has a peculiar interpretation, and is symbolized as "a winged angel, sounding trumpet, while from below, a man, woman and a child are seen arising from a tomb with their hands clasped in prayer." At some time in the experience of the person or entity represented by the number 20, there is a powerful awakening, bringing new purpose, new plans, new ambitions - the call to action for some great cause or ideal.
There may be obstacles or delays to one's plans, but these are conquered, by developing patience and continually cultivating faith in one's own powers to transform. This is the challenge/life lesson of the number 20. The number 20 also brings the blessing of vivid precognitive dreams, plus the ability to manifest the happy ones and cancel the negative ones. It is not a material number, therefore is doubtful regarding financial success. If large sums of money are needed for practical support of the new cause or ideal, then one may choose a more positive materialistic number by changing the spelling of the name, assuming that 20 is the birth number. However, those who are comfortable with their 20 vibration seldom care about matters of finance. Money is not important to them, and the basic necessities will be covered.
The Number 21 - "The Crown of the Magi"
21 is pictured as "The Universe", and is also called "The Crown of the Magi". It promises general success, and guarantees advancement, honors, awards, and general elevation in life and career. It indicates victory after a long struggle, for the "Crown" is gained only after long initiation, much soul testing and various other tests of determination. However, the person or entity blessed with the number 21 may be certain of final victory over all odds and opposition. It is a most fortunate vibration - a number of karmic reward.
The Number 22 - "Submission - and Caution"
22 is symbolized by the ancients as "a good man, blinded by the folly of others, with a knapsack full of errors on his back." In the image he seems to offer no defense against the ferocious tiger which is about to attack him. It's a warning number of illusion and delusion. It indicates a good person who lives in a fool's paradise; a dreamer who only awakens when surrounded by danger, and it is often too late. It warns of mistakes of judgment, of placing faith in those who are not trustworthy.
If the person has 22 as a birth number, they should exercise caution and watchfulness in career and personal matters. The karmic obligation/lesson here is to be alert! Also, to develop more spiritual aggressiveness - to realize your own power to change things. When this personal responsibility is recognized, practiced and mastered, the 22 person can be in control of events. Anyone born on the 22nd of the month needs to carefully read the special section about the numbers 4 and 8.
The Number 23 - "The Royal Star of the Lion"
This is a karmic reward number. 23 bestows not only a promise of success in personal and career endeavors, it guarantees help from superiors and protection from those in high places. It is a most fortunate number, and greatly blesses with abundant grace the person or entity represented by it. As always, the number 23 must be considered along with the other numbers making up the full numerological analysis, which may not be so fortunate. But other numbers don't have much of a chance to bring about serious trouble when the Royal Star of the Lion is present during difficult times. No number can challenge the Lion's strength and win!
The Number 24 - "Love - Money - Creativity"
This number is also most fortunate! Another Compound number of karmic reward justly earned in past incarnations, particularly when it is the birth number. It promises assistance of those with power, and indicates a close association with people of high rank and position. It greatly increases financial success, and the ability to achieve happiness in love. It denotes gain through romance, the law, or the arts, and a magnetism which is extremely attractive to the opposite sex.
