A HISTORY OF NUMEROLOGY

The origin of Numerology and its everyday uses

The following text was excerpted from the book, Numerology: The Key to Your Inner Self by Hans Decoz.

Numerology is a language that allows you to expand the horizons of your spiritual awareness. It opens doors in your psyche that you may not have known existed.

This is true of all language. Before there were words, there were only the most simple and basic thoughts, most of which were confined to survival. But with language came more complex relationships, more possibilities and vastly more creativity.

Take the word relativity. This word means that there is something other than absolute values in the universe. The word also means that what is true for you may not be true for someone else. Before Albert Einstein introduced his concept of relativity, the world was guided by a belief in absolutes -- that things were as they seemed to be, not only for you, but for everyone. But wit the emergence of the term relativity, and the far-reaching concepts that Einstein attached to it, humanity was now awakened to new ideas, possibilities, and relationships that shaped our view of life. Our spiritual horizon had been expanded by the introduction of a word that symbolized a large and complex meaning.

That same kind of expansion occurs when one is introduced to the language of numbers. Suddenly, the universe seems far greater and more complex, yet easier to grasp. Now you can think about things that previously were impossible to consider.

Symbols reveal relationships. They are the images that define the arrangement of multiple, often abstract, ideas. Symbols show us how important characteristics are related to each other. They reveal how things are related by their very nature.
