Anka Shastra: Ancient Indian Numerology

Introduction to Ancient Indian Numerology

By nature, man is curious to know about his unforeseen future. What is in store for his future? How will be the time for him in future? Will
he ever be able to succeed in the task he has taken up? Which field should he choose in order to earn a lot of fame and fortune? These are
some queries that always prick the human conscience. Astrology, since antiquity, had helped mankind to know the future events before
hand.
Numerology is a science of exploring hidden powers of numbers and their influence on human beings.

Indians see numbers as symbols of certain types of cosmic powers. And they link them with spirituality. For example 0 is a number that
encircles some part of the infinite universe. The inner part of it is separated from the vast outer space. This is similar to human body where
the soul (Jeevaatma) resides. A human being always feels that he is separate and the outer universe is different from him. He confines his
soul with his present body and thinks that he and the body is one and the same. Thus he has forgotten the truth that he is the all-pervading
God. This is called cosmic delusion (Maaya). So 0 represents the cosmic delusion. This means 0 gives false impression that what ever is not
there, is there. Let us add 0 after 1, then that 1 appears as 10. This means 1 is assuming a different form, because of 0. This is same as the
super-soul appearing in different forms because of Maaya.

Every number will have mental and spiritual plane represented by its top half part and the material worldly affairs are represented by its
remaining bottom part.

When we connect a series of points in a single direction, then it becomes 1. Thus 1 represents single-mindedness in achieving the objectives,
creativity, and starting new ventures. Its pillored appearance represents independence and leadership qualities.

2 is round shaped at top. It is a open 0. That means there is no complete Maaya at mental level. There is a scope to receive and release new
ideas and concepts. So 2 represents flexibility and diplomacy. The bottom of 2 shows a horizontal line that is attached firmly to ground. This
means if these inventive ideas are properly used, the person can achieve highest success in material world.

Take 3, it is having open rounded ends at its top as well as at bottom.This shows continuous receiving and releasing of new ideas and
involving into new developments. It represents ambition, self-expression and idealism. This number makes a person to reap material benefits
from his intelligence and spiritualism.

Just close the rounded ends of 3, you will get 8. It represents Maaya at both the levels. The person is wrapped by complete ignorance of
what is happining outside his perception. He cannot come out of the clutches of karmic forces. The balanced loops of 8 represents balanced
nature, patience and discipline.

Contemplete on 4, it is looking like a person sitting stable, attached to ground. The triangle above represents fire that promotes a strong
desire for material benefits. The person will become materailistic. 4 may also represents unconventional behaviour.

5 is a quiet different number, with flat head and open rounded bottom. Flatness represents stability. The person would reach a clear and
stable mental state which he uses in receiving and processing the material in worldly projects. 5 is a sign of dynamism and communication.
This number makes one a successful business man.

This number makes one a successful business man.

7 is having similarity with 5, in such a way it is having a flat head and weak base. 7 indicates high level of spiritualism and sensitivity. But
the person will not use his mental and spiritual stability to achieve material means.

6 is a number that is fully rounded at the bottom. It looks like a pregnant lady. It symbolises pregnancy, artistic and feminine qualities. The 0
formation at bottom indicates Maaya that pushes the person in love with family- related matters and enjoyment.

9 is a number that is nothing but inverted 6. It represents love to the world. The 0 formation at top, overshadows a person’s intelligence with
Maaya. The person cannot think but work. So there is a conflict. He would be quick in actions and courageous.

While the numbers have the above significance, each number has been attached to a particular planet in Astrology, the reason is: cetain
planet produces the similar vibration of a certain number. Thus 1- Sun, 2- Moon, 3- Jupiter, 4- Uranus or Rahu, 5- Mercury, 6- Venus, 7-
Neptune or Kethu, 8- Saturn, and 9- Mars. Number 0 should not be attached to any planet, since it is the root cause of all the numbers. It
increases the strength of a number.

The numbers have been attached to Alphabet also. 1- A,I,J,Q,Y. 2- B,K,R. 3- C,G,L,S. 4- D,M,T. 5- E,H,N,X. 6- U,V,W. 7- O,Z. 8- F,P.

Now let us take an illustration. SWAMI VIVEKANANDA, a great saint of India, who shook the world by his philosophical teachings, was
born on 12th January 1863.

His birth date number: 12 = 3.

His birth compound number: 12+1+1863 = 22.
His birth single number: 2+2 = 4.
His name single number: SWAMI VIVEKANANDA = 52 = 7.

Vivekananda’s birth date number 3 and name number 7 represent that he is ambitious, versatile and a spiritual guru. His ambitions are more
focussed on service to poor and downtrodden as is shown by 4 in his birth single number. He had unconventional and revolutionary ideas in
reforming the society. His birth compound number 22 shows that he is highly religious and inclined in purification of mind and soul. More
over, his birth single number and name numbers 4 and 7 are hormonious, thus making him a renowned person. Let us take only
VIVEKANANDA= 37 which clearly shows that he is a spiritual guru. And 3+7 = 1 shows beginning of new ventures which is an indication
of his great mission to bring moral and spiritual upliftment. So we can say that Vivekananda’s life would be greatly influenced by numbers 3
and 7 and their hormonics 9 and 2. In his case, 2 represents deep involvement in mental faculties like meditation and mantra japa.

He met his guru Sri Rama Krishna in 1881 = 9 (His age: 18 = 9)

He started his journey in search of truth in 1890 = 9 (His age: 27 = 9)
He reached Kanya Kumari and visualized Divine Mother in 1892 = 2 (His age: 29 = 2)
He participated in the Parliament of religions in Chicago in 1893 = 3 (His age: 30 = 3)
He came back to India and started Rama Krishan Mission Association in 1897 = 7 (His age: 34 = 7)
The saint left his body in 1902 = 3 (His age: 39 = 3).

Astrology is in fact both an art and a science. It has, in turn, many branches and sub-branches- each equal in importance and accuracy. All
of them have independent existence. Numerology or the astrology based on number system is one such branch of astrology.

Numerology is an ancient Indian discipline, Not only the Nummber Zero ,the whole Numeric system was given by Bharat ie is India .
It is written on the pyramids of egypt that the
Egyptians had got the knowledge of Numerology from The Aryans of Bharat .
In Ancient Egypt, numbers did not simply designate quantities but instead were considered to be concrete definitions of energetic formative
principles of nature. The Egyptians called these energetic principles neteru (gods).

Astrologers believe that each number from 0 to 9 is ruled by a celestial body in our solar system.
Numerology is an Ancient Indian science
the predictions based on which have always proved cent-percent accurate.
Use of Numerology particularly has grown in leaps and bounds for just one reason: in the predictions made with the help of Numerology,
only the date, month and the year of one’s birth are all that is required. Precise knowledge of the time of birth and place are not required at
all. Thus, all those people who don’t know the precise time of their birth can also learn important facts about their lives.

Use of numbers is seen virtually in all walks of life. Two eyes, three tenses, three deities, three worlds, tenth worlds, tenth date, eighth
month, one pair or two shoes are a few examples where we can see significant use of numbers. The science of making predictions on the
basis of the numbers therefore is known as Numerology.

In Numerology, certain number has been fixed for each of the nine planets. In other words, each of the nine planets have been assigned a
particular number. Some experts, however, do not allot Rahu and Ketu, any position in Numerology. Instead, they assign two numbers- one
positive and one negative to the sun and the moon. The negative numbers assigned to the sun and the moon represent Rahu and Ketu
respectively.

The following table depicts the numbers assigned to the nine planets:

Similarly, specific numbers or digits have also been assigned to each of the twelve zodiac signs.
Thus, these twelve sun signs also represent digits 1 to 9.

10 CAPRICORN VENUS 8
11 AQUARIUS VENUS 8
12 PISCES VENUS 3

A horoscope can be analyzed on the basis of these digits and it can be determined as to which planet is influencing the person the most.
Predictions can also be made regarding the occupation of the person. Let us take an example to elaborate the point.

Diagram-

In the horoscope, Saturn is present in Aries.

The digit for Saturn is 8 and for Aries it is 9. Hence, 8+9=17 i.e. 1+7=8.
Digit for Taurus is 6 and for the sun it is 1 and for Mercury it is 5.
Hence, 6+1+5=12 and 1+2=3.

Digit for Gemini is 5 and for Mars it is 9. Hence, 9+5=14 and 1+4=5.
Digit for Cancer is 7 and for Venus it is 6. Hence, 7+6=13 and 1+3=4.
Digit for Leo is 1 and for the Moon it is 7. Hence, 1+7=8.
Digit for Libra is 6 and for Jupiter it is 3. Hence, 6+3=9.

Total: 8+3+5+4+8+9=37 and 3+7=10 and hence 1+0=1.

Thus, finally, the digit 1 (one) is obtained for the horoscope cited as example. Sun is the Lord of this digit. It shows that the Sun has the
maximum influence on their horoscope. Hence, the occupations related to technical field, instruments and spare parts, medicines, astrology,
gems and jewels will particularly suit the native. The native will be importunate, sentimental, kind, an expert in his field and ambitious.

At no cost, he will compromise with his self-respect. He will not bow before the others or be dominated by the others and never nod on the
fake things, will never give false witness. Physically, he will be off-balanced height, reddish complexioned. Any unlawful action or violation
of law will infuriate this person.

BIRTH NUMBER OR ROOT NUMBER

It is determined on the basis of the date of birth of a person and always expressed as a single digit from 1 to 9. Since there are 30 or 31 days
in a month, hence for the date of birth falling on dates from 10 to 30 or 31, root number is calculated by adding the numerals present in the
date of birth until a single digit is obtained.

Suppose a person was born on 2 January. His root number will be 2 because 2 is itself a single digit. If a person is born on 20th of February,
his root number will be calculated. Thus, 2+0=2.

29 29:2+9=11=1+1=2 30 30:3+0=3
31 31:3+1=4

Root number can also be determined by dividing the date of birth by 9 (nine). In this method, the remainder is the root number. Example:
Date of birth is 31.
Hence, root number is 31/9.
Gives Quiotent = 3.
Remainder = 4.
Hence it is the root number for the date of birth 31.

If however, the remainder is zero, 9 itself is the root number. Also, this method is applied mostly to the date of birth greater than 9.

Example: Date of birth 27. Root number is:27/9.

Gives Quiotent = 3.
Remainder = 0. Hence, root number will be 9.

Know your fate number.

FATE OR LUCK NUMBER

Date of birth, month of birth and the year of birth are required to determine the fate or luck number. The method is quite simple, figures
present in the date, month and the year of birth are added together until a single digit is obtained.

present in the date, month and the year of birth are added together until a single digit is obtained.

Example:
Suppose, a person is born on the 24th of April in 1976. His fate or luck number is computed thus: 24/4/1976= 2+4+4+1+9+7+6=33=3+3=6.
Hence, the fate or luck number for the person in question is 6.

In importance, fate or luck number is no less than the root or birth number. It in fact embraces the root number and shows its influence time
and gain in your life.

Former Prime minister of England, W.E. Gladstone had the fate or luck number 5. And this number significantly influenced his life and
political career. He was born on 29th December 1809. So, his fate number was 2+9+1+2+1+8+0+9=32=3+2=5. He was elected to the
parliament in 1832, which adds up to5. 1+8+3+2= 1+4=5.

His mother expired on the 23rd date, again 2+3=5 and he became the Prime Minister of England in 1868= 1+8+6+8=2+3=5.

COMPOUND NUMBER
To calculate the compound number of a person, his birth or root number, name number
and pyramid numbers are added to get a single digit eventually.

Suppose that, a person has 1, 7, 5 and 9 as his root, luck, name and compound numbers respectively.

To calculate to his compound number, all these numbers are added together.

1+7+5+9= 22=2+2=4

Hence, the person in question has a compound number 4.

PYRAMID NUMBER

To calculate the pyramid number, the name of the person is written in English. Now, the numbers allotted to each of the letters are also
written. To follow the procedure of calculating the pyramid number, see the example given here, carefully:

MA DANKA USHI K
414152163512
44451269652
7725239931
451169993
25169999
1569999
539999
69999
9999
999
99
9

Starting from the first digit on the left hand, each digit is first multiplied by its next digit and the result is written below then in pyramidal
fashion. If the result has two figures, these are added to get a single digit. Thus, a single row of digits gives a next row, containing a digit less
than it. The second row gives birth to the third and the third gives rise to the fourth and so on, until, at last, a single digit is obtained at the
top of the inverted pyramid. This digit is the pyramid number.

Similarly, pyramid numbers for Delhi and India can also be calculated

IS YOUR NAME FAVOURABLE?

An old proverb says: “Its all in the name.” But the question is: : How favourable is one’s name? If it ever proves helpful for the person?

Sound is a form of waves that require a medium, like air, water, to travel. Whenever a sound is produced, it leaves a special effect on the
ambience and on the listener. Pronunciation of name, similarly leaves an effect on the mind of the listener. This effect depends on the waves
generated because of pronunciation of syllables present in the name. With the intensity of the vibration, effect of the name also varies. As
soon as we hear a name, a face conjures up in our mind. A name that appears formidable to hear, almost always leads to conjuring up of a
formidable face.

Thus, the name of a person can be very much favourable or unfavourable for him. Numerology helps us to know if our name is favourable
for us.

According to Numerology, a name is favourable only when its number agrees well with the root number, fate number, pyramid number and
compound number. If it does not agree, it is definitely unfavourable for you. Suppose, your name is Manoj and your date of birth is 25th
December, 1965.

From the principles of Numerology,

your root number is 2+5=7 and
fate number is: 2+5+1+2+1+9+6+5=31=3+1=4 and
your name number is M A N O J
MANOJ
4+1+5+7+1= 18= 1+8=9
and pyramid number is:

MANOJ
41571
4587
242
18
1

and compound number is: 7+4+9+1=2+1=3.

Your root number is 7. It is the positive number for the moon.

Some experts link it with Neptune and still others associate it with Ketu.
And your fate number is 4, it is friendly with 7. But your name number is 9, which is governed by Mars. It is not friendly with 7 your root
number.

In other words, your name is unfavourable for you. Hence, it is advisable that you change your name or certain syllables of it in order to
make it suitable for you.

INFLUENCE OF THE NUMBERS

INFLUENCE OF THE NUMBERS 1 (ONE)

The digit 1 is ruled by the Sun, hence it is regarded as an important digit impartially great fortune under its influence. People governed by
this digit are highly ambitious, self-respecting, altruistic, sensitive, determined and a man of actions.

But they have no stability in love relations, though their love is true.
They should particularly guard themselves from the digits 4 and 6.

NFLUENCE OF THE NUMBER 3 (THREE)

The Number “3″

The number 3 stands in symbolism for the Planet
Jupiter, a Planet which plays a most important role
both in Astrology and in all systems of Numerology.
It is the beginning of what may be termed one of the
main lines of force that runs right through all the numbers
from 3 to 9.

It has a special relation to every third in the series,

such as 3, 6, 9, and all their additions. These numbers
added together in any direction produce a 9 as their final
digit, and the 3, 6, 9 people are all sympathetic to one
another.

Persons having a 3 for their Birth number are all those

who are born on the 3rd, 12th, 21st, or 30th in any month,
but the number 3 has still more significance if they should
be born in what is called the” period of the 3,” from the
19th February to March 20th-27th, or from the 21st
November to December 20th-27th.
Let us read about qualities of Number “3″ people

Qualities of Number “3″ people

General Characteristics
Number 3 people, like the number 1 individuals, are
-decidedly ambitious; they are never satisfied by being in
subordinate positions; their aim is to rise in the world, to
have control and authority over others. They are excellent
in the execution of commands; they love order and discipline in all things; they readily obey orders themselves, but they also insist on having
their orders obeyed.
Number 3 people often rise to the very highest positions in any business, profession or sphere in which they may be found. They often excel
in positions of authority in the army and navy, in government, and in life generally; and especially in all posts of trust and responsibility, as
they are extremely conscientious in carrying out their duties.

Their faults are that they are inclined to be dictatorial, to “lay down the law” and to insist on carrying out their own ideas. For this reason,
although they are not quarrelsome, they succeed in making many enemies. Number 3 people are singularly proud; they dislike being under a
compliment to others; they are also exceptionally independent, and chafe under the least restraint.

Favorable Dates & Days

Number 3 people should endeavour to carry out their plans and aims on all days that vibrate to their own number, such as on the 3rd, 12th,
21st, and 30th of any month, but more especially when these dates fall in the” period of the 3,” such as from the 19th February to March
20th-27th, and from the 21st November to December 20th-27th.

The days of the week more” lucky” for them are Thursday, Friday, and Tuesday; Thursday being the most important. These days are
especially good if a number making a 3 should fall on it, such as the 3rd, 12th, 21st, or 30th, and next in order their interchangeable numbers
of 6 and 9 such as the 6th, 9th, 15th, 18th, 24th, or 27th.

Number 3 people are more in harmony with those born under their own number or under the 6 and 9, such as all those who are born on a
3rd, 12th, 21st, 30th. 6th, 15th, 24th. 9th, 18th, 27th.

Lucky Colors and Jewels

For” lucky” colours they should wear some shade of mauve, violet, or purple, or some touch of these colours should always be with them;
also in the rooms in which they live. All shades of blue, crimson, and rose are also favourable to them, but more as secondary colours.
Their” lucky” stone is the amethyst. They should always have one on their persons, and if possible, wear it next their skin.

NUMBER AND AUSPICIOUS MOMENTS

We are all aware of the things like good moments, omens etc. and wish to begin our important tasks at the right moment and give too much
significance to omens before that. Hora has a significant place in Indian astrology. It has perhaps originated from the English word hour.
According to an ancient doctrine, beginning from the sunrise, the first hour of the day is known as Hora. The day that falls on that date is
Hora. Suppose, on Sunday, the sun rises exactly at 6.15 a.m. Hence, the first Hora will be marked by the Sun. Other planets after which all
the seven days of the week have been named, mark the subsequent ‘Horas’. There are in all 24 Horas in a day and follow one another in a
cycle. The following table makes the concept of Hora clear:

SUN SIGN FAVOURABLE NEUTRAL UNFAVOURABLE

ARIES SUN, MOON, MARS, JUPITER VENUS, SATURN MERCURY
TAURUS MERCURY, VENUS, SATURN JUPITER, MARS SUN, MOON
GEMINI SUN, MERCURY, VENUS MARS, JUPITER, SATURN MOON
CANCER SUN, MERCURY, MOON MARS, JUPITER, VENUS, SATURN ————
LEO SUN, MOON, MARS, JUPITER MERCURY SATURN, VENUS
VIRGO SUN,MERCURY, VENUS MARS, SATURN, JUPITER MOON
LIBRA MERCURY, VENUS, SATURN MARS, JUPITER SUN, MOON
SCORPIO SUN, MOON, MARS, JUPITER SATURN, VENUS MERCURY
SAGITTARIUS SUN, MOON, MARS, JUPITER` SATURN MERCURY, VENUS
CAPRICORN MERCURY, VENUS, SATURN JUPITER SUN, MOON, MARS
AQUARIUS VENUS, SATURN, MERCURY JUPITER SUN, MOON, MARS
PISCES SUN, MOON, MARS, JUPITER SATURN MERCURY, VENUS

Using this table and your birth sign, you can determine the Horas most favourable, neutral and unfavourable for you and accordingly can
begin your important tasks. If, suppose, your birth sign is Leo, Horas marked by the Sun, Moon, Jupiter and Mars will be the most favourable
for you.
