“Numbers are the highest degree of knowledge. It is knowledge itself.” – Plato

By knowing and understanding our Zodiac sign, many of us have been provided with a great understanding of our personality and inner self. Imagine if this insight could be even more in-depth and specific based on the exact date on which you were born. The practice of numerology allows us to do just that.

Dating back to the ancient philosophers, the practice of numerology began with an understanding that numbers and mathematical concepts were practical and easier to classify. They spent a great deal of time analyzing and understanding numerical relationships. St. Augustine of Hippo (AD. 354-430) wrote, “Numbers are the Universal language offered by the deity to humans as confirmation of the truth.”

By understanding the connection between a number and the potential coinciding events in our daily lives, we can use the study of numerology to provide us with an in-depth analysis of our personality as well as a glimpse into our future.

Eighth Day of the Month: The Boss

Ninth Day of the Month: The Genius

You may not be aware of your incredible intellect, but you were born with the capacity of a true genius.

For this reason, you need to avoid jobs like law enforcement where you will be tempted to take the problems home at the end of the day.

Twelfth Day of the Month: The Catalyst

That person who is always on the go, never slowing down, you possess a seemingly unending supply of energy.
