Digit Summing

Usually Numerologists will reduce a number by a process known as digit summing. You take the sum of all of the digits of a number, and if the result is a number with 2 or more digits you add up the digits of that number; you repeat the process recursively until you arrive at a single-digit number.
For example if the number is 1996 the numbers are added together like this 1 + 9 + 9 + 6 = 25. The result is a number with 2 or more digits so the next step is 2 + 5 = 7.

Significance of Numbers

One is the first number and is therefore considered to have great power.
The beginning.
The Creator.
The First Cause.
One is the origin, the beginning. Gaea. The Bang. The Word. One can be happy, loving, romantic, dynamic and charismatic, but on the downside it can be egotistical, selfish and melodramatic, individualistic, obstinate and alone. In Chinese one refers to Yang, masculine; is often associated with male or masculine energy.

Two can have many different meanings it can represent partnerships and interaction with others. Two can also represent polarities such as good and evil, black and white, left and right. In Chinese, two is Yin and may be considered feminine, intuitive, and corresponds with our protective instincts. Negatively, two can be grasping, overprotective and cranky. In Revelation, two is the number of witness.

3

Three represents many things such as the divisions of a human: mind, body, and spirit. Our visible world is three dimensional - we do things in threes so they will manifest in our physical realm. Three is considered to be lucky, and is often associated with money and good fortune (ex. Three leaf clover). It also represents the number associated with creativity. As a basis of all creation, the blending of creative energy of one (male) and two (female) create new life, so the resulting creation is associated with the number three.

4

Four can represent time as the 4th dimension is time. Time is strongly associated with four. The year has four seasons and the month has (roughly) four weeks. The simplest solid object, a tetrahedron, has four sides so four denotes solid matter. In Chinese the word "four" is a homonym of the word for "death". Because of that Some hospitals do not have a 4th floor.

5

The number five is of the human being. Humanoid form, the pentagon when arms and legs are out stretched. Five is associated to sensual awareness in the form of the five senses. This number governs our ability to think clearly and our intellectual capacity. Five represents openness to new experiences as well as new ideas. Seeking freedom, it is often the adventurer.

It deals with that which we are attracted to and those things we find great pleasure in. On the other hand, six can be unfaithful, jealous, bitter and vengeful. As the "cosmic parent" number, negatively this number can represent martyrdom, the inability to say "no", and overbearingness instead of "letting the child stumble in learning to walk". In Christianity, Six is perfection; completion because man was created on the sixth day.
