Character Number:
The character number indicated the general personality type of an individual. The character number is calculated by adding up all the numbers in the name and “reducing” until you get a number equal or lower than 9. To “reduce” a number to a single digit you add the component numbers together, more than once, if necessary. For example: 58 reduces to 13 (5+8=13), which reduces to 4 (1+3=4). Now lets take this idea and turn it into something useful. We will continue using my name as the example:
| C | H | A | R | L | E | S | P | E | N | D | R | A | G | O | N | |
| 3 | 8 | 1 | 9 | 3 | 5 | 1 | 7 | 5 | 5 | 4 | 9 | 1 | 7 | 6 | 5 |
Now add up the numbers. In this case the result is 79. This seems like such a large number, but it should easily reduce down. 16 (7+9=16), which reduces to 7(1+6=7). So my character number is 7.
Heart Number:
The next number we will calculate is your Heart Number. This number represents the individual’s inner life and can indicate desires and fears hidden from others. To calculate this number we will reduce the total number of all the vowels in the name. Now we will also continue on with my name as the example.
| C | H | A | R | L | E | S | P | E | N | D | R | A | G | O | N | |
| 3 | 8 | 1 | 9 | 3 | 5 | 1 | 7 | 5 | 5 | 4 | 9 | 1 | 7 | 6 | 5 |
Remember, just the vowels! The total comes out to: 18. Since this number is not a single digit it must be reduced. 9(1+8=9). Luckily for us, I only had to reduce once. So my Heart number is 9.
Social Number :
The final number that we will learn to calculate is called the Social Number. This number represents the outer personality, the face an individual shows to the outside world. To calculate this number you add up all the consenants and then reduce to a single digit. Now lets take this idea and turn it into something useful. We will again continue using my name as the example:
| C | H | A | R | L | E | S | P | E | N | D | R | A | G | O | N | |
| 3 | 8 | 1 | 9 | 3 | 5 | 1 | 7 | 5 | 5 | 4 | 9 | 1 | 7 | 6 | 5 |
Remember that this time we’re adding up only the consenants. So, if my calculations are right the total is: 61. Let’s reduce it! 7 (6+1=7), and again lucky for me I only had to reduce once. So my social number is 7.
Now you will have to stick around for the final lesson to find out how to put these different numbers to use! For now, you’ll have to just settle for homework. Yes, I know, I can hear the growns now.
