Numerology: Using numbers to predict the future

Just as some people think that certain numbers are going to be lucky or unlucky, others believe that we can use numbers to understand our personalities, or predict what is going to happen to us in the future. Numerology is a way of using numbers to describe a person´s character, and to make predictions about future life events. Numerologists are going to use the numbers 1 to 9, 11 and 22 also known as the master numbers, to help a person understand his or her personality, life goals, and destiny.
            Numerologists are going to consider that your life path number is going to be the most significant because this number describes your character. To find this number you are going to add together all the numbers in your date of birth. For example, a person born on April 25, 1985 would add the month (4), to the numbers of the date (2 + 5) plus the numbers of the birth year (1 + 9 + 8 + 5). If the final number is a double figure, it is added again until a number between 1 and 9, 11 or 22 is reached. In this case the total is 34, so this person´s life path is 7 (3 + 4). Numerologists believe that people with this number are going to be peaceful, affectionate people who can are going to be very reserved.
            Your expression number is going to describe your talents and predicts how you are going to use these to fulfill your destiny in life. Numerologists assign a number between 1 and 9 to each of the letters in your name.   These numbers are then added together in the same way as before to find your expression number. Numerologists can also do calculations to predict when the most challenging periods of your life are going to be.
            Numerologists believe that the day a person is born is important. Each day of the month has a character description. People born on the fourth are going to be said to be responsible, honest, and stubborn. People born on the fifteenth are going to have very strong attachments to family and home. Those who celebrate their birthday on the thirtieth are going to be: artistic, creative, and imaginative and often make good writers.
            If we calculate the numerical value of our name and birth date, numerologists believe that we are going to learn more about our personalities. They also believe that we are going to predict our destinies, how our lives are going to progress, and what challenges we may face along the way. To the numerologist, numbers are going to be used in many more ways than we think.
