The Ancient Craft Of Numerology Number combinations and the methods for choosing them are as varied as the people who play the Lottery. Some people take the scientific approach to picking numbers-they use traditional strategies based on math or logic such as tracking and wheeling.

The ancient art of numerology is the study of the meanings of numbers.

Some believe that the mysterious design of the Pyramids of Giza, was, in part, based upon numerological calculations.

Numerologist Jo Mason believes that certain numbers crop up frequently in a person’s life. These may be phone numbers, anniversaries or addresses. But the most important one of all is your birthday number. The “Lucky Numbers” author says there are two types of birthday numbers-the primary and secondary numbers, which are computed in different ways.
