Vedic Name Numerology

Vedic Numerology of Names

Name numerology in Vedic esotericism is just one of four different types of personal number interpretation systems. Each of the four systems represents a certain aspect of our personality.

Name numbers are representatives of work ethic, vocation, career and how we socially interact with others on a cooperative level.

Numbers are incredibly powerful tools in general, but especially for the Vedic system of foretelling important personality aspects and events in one's life. Numbers are interpreted according to their correspondences to the planets and years of observing the effect of numbers on the life of humans.

To be sure, whether you are consulting Vedic name numerology, or using a Western system of number interpretation...the power of numbers is undeniable. Indeed, science maintains that all of life can be reduced to a series of ones and zeros, and the entire universe can be deciphered by means of numerological formulas.

Although the power of numbers, and their potential to reveal our deeper personality traits is remarkable...it's important to rely on our own discernment, when reading our own name numerology. In other words, be both a mystic and a scientist when consulting your name numerology. Recognize the magic in numbers while at the same time incorporate common sense in your interpretations.

Having said all that, let's get you started on interpreting your name number meaning in Vedic name numerology. Simply consult the chart below and begin assigning the appropriate number to each letter in your first and last name. Once you've done that, you will come up with a multiple digit number, like 182. You will reduce this number to a single digit. For example: 1+8+2=11. Reduce this again, like so: 1+1=2.

Vedic Letter-Number Assignments

A=1 B=2 C=3 D=4 E=5
F=8 G=3 H=5 I=1 J=1
K=2 L=3 M=4 N=5 O=7
P=9 Q=1 R=2 S=3 T=4
U=6 V=6 W=6 X=5 Y=1
Z=7
Note: Hindu practitioners took great pains to hide their secrets from the public. Researchers have done a fair job at piecing together this name number wisdom, but the original formulas have been lost in history. This code system is the most commonly used in Vedic name numerology.

Now that you have assigned your letters with appropriate numbers, and reduced your digits to a single number...here comes the fun part. I've provided personality attributes (in social/vocational aspects) according to your name number. Just look up your number and enjoy! :)
