CALCULATING YOUR NUMBERS
As of May 2010 a new calculator is available free by clicking below.
The procedure for deriving each of the numerical values of the name starts with knowing which number corresponds to each letter of the name. Below is a reference list of these correspondences.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
A B C D E F G H I
J K L M N O P Q R
S T U V W X Y Z
To start, write down the full name at birth (first, middle [one or more], and last). If there is a Jr. or 3rd, or 4th, it is written out Junior, The Third, The Fourth. Robert Jones Jr. would be written Robert Jones Junior. The usual rule of thumb is to use the name on the birth certificate. There can be some exceptions. If a mistake was made on the birth certificate and corrected immediately, I usually go with the corrected name. In cases of adoption, if there was a name established prior to the adopted name, I usually go with the original name depending upon the length of time before the change. There is no exact rule for how long that time may be. If it was a matter of days or weeks, that is enough time for the name to have been established.
The name at birth is similar to the natal chart in astrology. It is in effect your entire life. As you later change names (for marriage, career, nicknames, stage names, etc.) these can be given consideration for the vibrational change they create. They doe not replace the name at birth.
(NOTE) For any name other than the full name at birth you will find clarification and instructions in Chapter 6. Go to the Order Products page and scroll down to Changes In The Name. Or you can click here.
Once you have the name written, you place the appropriate number under each letter using the above chart as a guideline. You then add across the line getting a total number for the full name. This is called the pure number. Once you have a total, it is reduced to a single digit by simple addition.
Next, on another line, place a number under the vowels only (A, E, I, O, U and Y). Then add across and get a total for the vowels of the full name. This is the pure number. Now reduce it to a single digit by simple addition. (IMPORTANT NOTE) There is debate among some numerologists regarding the use of Y as a vowel or consonant. I struggled with the issue for some time in my early practice. After tens of thousands of charts and consultation with other intuitive professional practitioners, I consider that Y is always a vowel.
Finally, on another line, place the numbers under each of the consonants only. Then you add them across until you get a total. This is the pure number. Reduce it to a single digit by simple addition.
Below is an example chart to help give you assistance:
G E O R G E W A L K E R B U S H
7 5 6 9 7 5 5 1 3 2 5 9 2 3 1 8=7+5+6+9+7+5+5+1+3+2+5+9+2+3+1+8=78=7+8 =15= 6 IS
5 6 5 1 5 3 =5+6+5+1+5+3 =25=2+5 = 7 S
7 9 7 5 3 2 9 2 1 8=7+9+7+5+3+2+9+2+1+8 =53=5+3 = 8 P
Here is another example with master numbers:
R O B E R T S T O R E
9 6 2 5 9 2 1 2 6 9 5 =9+6+2+5+9+2+1+2+6+9+5 =56=5 + 6 = 11 = 11(2) IS
6 5 6 5 =6+5+6+5 = 22 = 22(4) S
9 2 9 2 1 2 9 =9+2+9+2+1+2+9 = 34 = 3 + 4 = 7 = 7 P
The general rule of thumb when adding is not to reduce master numbers.
In the above name some practitioners might indicate Robert Store’s IS number 2 (11) because it is not the pure number. I have labeled it as an 11 (2) because it is an 11 before it is reduced to a 2. This is a picky procedural point for experienced practitioners. Just know for now that it is an 11.
For the soul number we have 22(4) that indicates it is first of all a pure 22 and yet it is a 4. We say this is a 22(4), or a 2(11). When a number is in parenthesis ( ) it can also denote a potential master number. Usually it will take conscious effort by that person to develop its full potential.
Here is a little helpful hint to the beginner. Make a quick examination to be sure that the sum of the vowels and the sum of the consonants add up to the total of the whole name. It is just a quick check to catch possible errors in your addition.
To compute your numbers use the full name at birth as it is on the birth certificate (first, middle, and last). If you have any questions leave your inquiry at support@ForeverNumerology.com .
