Lesson 5: Predictive Numerology, Part 1

Periods of Numbers

Before proceeding to work on these numbers, we must learn about the periods of numbers. In the age-old Indian Vedic astrology, a time tested method known as the Vimshottari period system is used for knowing and predicting the future events. It has already been pointed out that the numbers cannot act independently but they, as the true representatives of the planets, inherit their qualities and pass on the same to mankind. Along with the qualities and characteristics of the planets, the numbers inherit their periods also. The following are the periods of various numbers as inherited from the respective planets:

Numbers Periods (in years)
1 6
2 10
3 16
4 18
5 17
6 20
7 7
8 19
9 7

The order of periods

Now we shall study how these periods operate. While counting money, buying things from a shop. or withdrawing money from a bank (or for anything else where counting is used), we use the numbers starting from one. This means that number one always comes first, followed by two. Two is always followed by three, to be followed by four, and so on. We do this intentionally and counting is done from one. But do these numbers, whenever they act, act one by one in order, as we do the counting, like number one is followed by two, and two followed by three, and so on?

No! They never act in order as we do so intentionally. Is the same winning number repeated in races daily? Did you ever find the serial numbers of winning horses on a single day to be in serial order like 1, 2, 3 and 4 and so on? Did you ever get the cinema hall tickets or train tickets containing serial order numbers during your two regular visits to a cinema hall or train journeys?

You can never say “yes” to such questions, as numbers have a tendency to act at random. In such circumstances, it is also very difficult to say that the periods of numbers operate in serial order. For example, a person who completes the number one period has to enter the phase of the number two period, and after that pass through the number three period, if one goes by the serial order. As it is not possible for the periods of numbers to act in such a serial order, a system is needed to be used in predictive numerology.

Each and every human being normally undergoes nine different phases in his or her life, and each number represents a different phase of life. We have already discussed the various characteristics of numbers in detail in lesson number 2. At this time, please note the chief characteristics of numbers:

1. Creation (origin)
2. Maturity ( Mind)
3. Growth , Progress, expansion
4. Hard work and separation
5. Intelligence
6. Love and peace
7. Philosophy and mystery
8. Old age and loneliness
9. Youthfulness energy

For any human being, first comes origin or creation (1) followed by maturity (2). After this follows youthfulness (9) in order to reach a phase of separation (4) (through marriage or profession). Then the person progresses (3) in life to accumulate wealth, only to be affected later by the feelings of loneliness (8) as if he or she has distanced himself or herself from his or her parents, brothers and sisters and native environment. Then is the time for anyone to think of what is good or bad, and it makes him or her more and more intelligent ( 5 ). As the person grows in age and maturity, philosophical tendencies ( 7 ) also grow along with him or her. Finally, when the person gets old, he or she rests pleasantly thinking of love and peace (6) and nothing else.

Representing the nine phases, as described above, periods of numbers operate in the following order in anybody’s life:

• Number 1; Periods (in years) 6
• Number 2; Periods (in years) 10
• Number 9; Periods (in years) 7
• Number 4; Periods (in years) 18
• Number 3; Periods (in years) 16
• Number 8; Periods (in years) 19
• Number 5; Periods (in years) 17
• Number 7; Periods (in years) 7
• Number 6; Periods (in years) 20
