Numerology is a simple way to discover your future, opportunities that lie ahead of you, your purpose or destiny in life, and ultimately to live a happy and fulfilling life after doing your own numerology. Numerology uses numbers (obviously) that will calculate and determine different formulas that will derive an answer for yourself.
The number that has the most impact on your numerology reading is your date of birth. Numbers are also derived from your full name and will reflect who you are and influenced by. Your natural talents, strengths and weaknesses are also revealed through the numbers based on your name.
Numerology is primarily a self motivational or help toolbox that derives information about yourself that you may not have know and can gain insight on your future. It's a way to find out more about your inner self as there are many people that don't know their full aspects of life. It reveals these aspects of your characteristics, personality, purpose in life, and much more. Numerology can also give you a picture of what lies ahead in the future for you. Of course it should not be treated literally as its purpose is not to give you psychic readings that a fortune teller or professional psychic does.
Numerology has been around for many many years and people have benefited from the readings. There are others who may say that numerology did not give them any valuable information as most of the information was already obvious to the person. In any case numerology can be done for fun and also reveal some new information about yourself which can in the end make you live a happy and fulfilling life.
