numerology

Digits predict destiny

Numerology is the belief that numbers have mystical significance and can reveal truths about personality, destiny, or events.

Practitioners assign meaning to birth dates, name letters converted to digits, or recurring numbers: Her numerology reading said she was a life path seven.

The practice has no scientific basis but remains popular in New Age and occult circles.
