The night of Halloween is traditionally
the night of magic and witches.
Some time ago, it was said that witches and
magicians, by means of spells, crystal balls
and magic practice could see the essence of
a person or could even know the future.
What does Mathematics or numbers have to do with magic?
Certain ancient traditions developed another area of Mathematics called “Sacred Mathematics”.
For example: Pythagoreans and Kabbalists think that Mathematics stands at the core of the
universe and the core of the human being, describing all its complexity. They think that through
numbers you can unveil hidden mysteries in the world and in people, and unveil hidden
mysteries within you.
Most scholars nowadays believe that 'Sacred Mathematics' is no more than plain
superstition of uneducated people. They may be right perhaps. But since the Halloween night is
coming closer, let's do an experiment, and let's decide for ourselves.
EXPERIMENT: Is numerology pure superstition?
Experiment goal: In our experiment you are going to use your full name and your birth date to
find, according to Pytahgoreans, some mysteries about your personality, your family heritage,
and your porpoise in life.
STEP 1: write your birth date, name and surnames in the boxes.
Day Month Year
Birth Date
Name
Numeric values
Father Surname
Numeric values
Mother Surname
Numeric values
STEP 2: Use the table to find for each letter of your name and surnames the right numeric value.
See the example for 'Silvia'. Numeric values of each letter in the alphabet
Example
S I L V I A
1 9 3 4 9 1
STEP 3: Visit each group of 'magicians' in the class to find what numerology says about yourself.
STEP 4: Now find another classmate with different results, and exchange with him your 'unveiled
mysteries'. Which results do you think describe you better: your results or his results?
STEP 5: Go online to this web form and answer the questions. We'll make a simple statistical study
with the results, and then we will have the data to say if numerology is or it isn't nonsense..
1) Your name → Essential Personality - GROUP 1
2) Your surnames → Genetic heritage from your parents - GROUP 2
2.1) Influence from your father's family
2.2) Influence from your mother's family
3) Number of life → Life porpoise and life mission
3.1) Life porpoise: GROUP 3: 1, 2, 3 - GROUP 4: 4, 5, 6 - GROUP 5: 7, 8, 9 - GROUP 6: 11, 22, 33, 44
3.2) Life Mission: GROUP 7
GROUP ONE: Your Name → Essential Personality
According to Pythagoreans your first name is a very strong expression of your personality,
since you hear your name from the very first moment of your birth.
To decode your name sum all its digits and reduce to a single number.
- If you have a compound name (Roberto Carlos), make the calculation first for the
name you use the most (Roberto), and then for the full name, and read both.
- If the result has a repeated digit, like 11, 22, 33 … 99 (1+1=2, 2+2=4, 3+3=6…)
then the meaning has a special intensity.
Example: SILVIA = 1+9+3+4+9+1 = 27 →now reduce to a single digit: 2+7 = 9

innovation and leadership. You may have an excess of authoritarianism or independence or ambition

victim, possessiveness or jealousy.
Will = voluntad Aesthetic sense = sentido estético

the mysteries and, in certain cases, in spirituality. You may have calculismo, sadness, arrogance and

dificultades”

number. If the result has a repeated digit, like 11, 22, 33 … 99 (1+1=2, 2+2=4, 3+3=6…)
then the meaning has a special intensity.
Example: ORTEGA PORTILLO
ORTEGA = 6+9+2+5+7+1 = 30 → 3+0 = 3 → Heritage from father's family
PORTILLO = 7+6+9+2+9+3+3+6 = 45 → 4+5 = 9 → Heritage from mother's family
