Strong, practical people, eights make successful businessmen and politicians. They work hard, accumulate money, and conduct their operations with caution and tenacity. Eight spells success with dollar marks ($UCCE$$), and thrives on progress. The weakness with this number lies in petty jealousies, wasted efforts, and indulgence. The eight can easily become hard, materialistic, and tyrannical. But, when it comes to money, eights have the true Midas touch.

**Nine**: The number nine combines influence with intellect. Romantic, passionate, and impulsive, nines are people of wide sympathies and great charm. They make brilliant scientists, teachers, and artists. Strong-willed, wild, unorthodox, and impractical, they are always interesting. However, they can be uncharitable and intolerant when opposed. More often than not, nines become so involved with their humanitarian efforts that they overlook the feelings of those around them. Impatient and impulsive, they move fast and have explosive tempers. If opposed, they are very uncharitable and intolerant. The only time they are cautious is when money is involved, but even then their impulsive nature may give way to generosities not in their best interest. If nines can learn control and balance there is nothing they cannot do or achieve.

## Numerology Analysis

To analyze an individual using numerology, begin with the date of birth number. This represents the subject’s
inborn characteristics and is known as the personality number. Next you will want to analyze the name number by which your subject is best known. It will show traits developed during life. Your subject’s inner nature is best expressed by the vowel number and is considered to be the number of underlying influence.

To find a person’s primary date of birth number, you must add all the numbers of the birth date together until you have a single digit number. For example, is you were born on May 1, 1950, you would first have to reduce May to a number. May is the 5th month, or 5. You would then add up all the numbers: 5 + 1 + 1 + 9 + 5 + 0 = 21. The 21 is then reduced to a single digit: 2 + 1 = 3. Your birth number would be 3, and this is the definition you would consult.

J K L M N O P Q R

S T U V W X Y Z

The next step is to analyze the name numerically. To do this you convert the letters of the name into numbers using the number-letter equivalents listed on the chart above. For example, John Smith:

J O H N S M I T H

1 + 6 + 8 + 5 + 1 + 4 + 9 + 2 + 8 =44=4+4=8

The primary number for the name John Smith is 8, so you would read the qualities associated with the number eight to find out what traits John has developed throughout his life. If the date of birth number and the name number coincide, the individual will have a pretty smooth life. If they are in opposition to each other it may indicate inner conflict and problems.

The last thing to do is reduce the vowels in the person’s name to one digit. This will show what influences are at work beneath the surface.
