I've always been a fan of ,"lucky," numbers and divination so naturally this book jumped out at me. Informative and quite scary how accurate the numbers are.

This is on of those books that you’ll find you can always go back to - it’s uses are limitless. I actually bought the hard copy as I thought it was really interesting l.

Astrology has come back into vogue. I like to see it as an ironic joke, which is how I approached reading The Numerology Handbook. The type of entertainment you don't have to believe or take seriously to engage with it. However, I couldn't get into it. It lost me. I realized there's nothing too funny about fake science in this day and age of anti-vaxxers.

Similar to Liz Dean's Divination Handbook, a common theme is that numbers are a channel or gateway to developing intuition, so there is a birth code that unlocks the secrets of your birth promise, personal and power cycles, a life purpose number, and destiny number... I had the sudden realization that I didn't care about this enough to remember it. Beautifully designed but I'm not the right audience for this.

I tend to forget about numerology. I’m not sure why – it’s a main component of such divination methods such as the Tarot and certain Oracle card systems and divining by Dominoes and playing cards – but perhaps that’s why I do forget about it. And although I have divination books that have a chapter about numerology in them and I have notes on numerology in my personal Book of Shadows, this little book, titled The Numerology Handbook: Uncover your Destiny and Manifest Your Future with the Power of Numbers, by Tanis Gabrielle, published by Fair Winds Press, an imprint of The Quarto Group, is the first book about numerology to ever grace my bookshelves. I have to say that I am quite happy to have it there!

Numerology is of course about numbers. Many people shy away from numbers because of math anxiety but all you need is the calculator on your cell phone to make these easy calculations. The most three important numbers are the day of your birth number, your life purpose number and your destiny number (10-11).

Your day of birth number is fairly simple. It corresponds to the day that you were born. If you were born on the 3rd of the month, then your day of birth number is 3. If it’s a double-digit number, then you add the two numbers. Sometimes you have to add twice; for instance, I was born on the 19th of May; therefore, 1+9=10/ 1+0=1. So my birth number is 1.

Your life purpose number is obtained by adding all the numbers in your day of birth. For instance, I was born May 19, 1960 (yeah, I know, I’m ancient). That’s 5 + (1+9) + (1+9+6+0) = 22

22 is my Compound Life Purpose Number and 4 is my Root Life Purpose Number.

The other most important number is your Destiny Number and that is figured by using the name on your birth certificate. Gabrielle is adamant about this: if your name was changed after you were six months old, you must use your original name! However, you can use your adopted or chosen name as a “secondary” influence (21).

People tend to separate letters and numbers as if they were two different ways of knowing but as Gabrielle points out, “Each letter resonates to a specific number.” (21) The system she uses is the Western system or the Pythagorean system, after Pythagoras, the Greek mathematician who is credited with the discovery of the “Pythagorean Theorem” – which if you took geometry you know that’s “a square plus b square equals c square” – I had it memorized but I could never quite explain it. I hated theorems!

Anyway, there’s the chart so you can figure out your Destiny Number. Using my the name on my own birth certificate, I added up the letters in my full given name. The result was 99, which of course “reduces” to 18 and again to 9. So 99, 18 and 9 are my Destiny Numbers.

OK – so what do all these numbers mean? The next three chapters explain everything you need to know. Gabrielle reminds us to “Make a note of intensifications – when the same number repeats.” and to “Pay attention to which numerology triad your Three Important Birth Code numbers belong to…” explaining that it makes a difference if the numbers all belong to the same triad or to a different triad (39).

Looking at my own numbers, I am reading things about myself that I already know – of course I do, I’m fifty-nine years old! – but also things that I do not particularly like to admit about myself. But that is the beauty of a book like this. And isn’t that why we read these books? To gain the knowledge to learn more about ourselves? And our loved ones?

I have the Master Number 22 within my collection of numbers – as Gabrielle writes, “Master Numbers ask more of you – they also give you the tools to accomplish more!” (77) I have always thought that the number 22 corresponded to the Number 0 but maybe that’s just in the Tarot.

I also have the Master Number 99. According to Gabrielle, “When your Destiny Number resonates to 99, your life embodies the qualities of Fulfillment through Unconditional Love. All answers and wisdom are contained within you. You are accomplished and have the answer for pretty much anything.” (87). HA! “…have the answer for pretty much anything.” I know plenty of people who would agree with that. Or that I think I have the answer for pretty much anything!

After Gabrielle covers the meaning of Root Numbers, Master Numbers, and Double-Digit Numbers, she covers Personal Years, Personal Months and Personal Days. Each year, month and day carries “a specific personal vibration” that is yours alone, based on your personal birth numbers (130).

Your personal year starts on your birthday, not January 1. My birthday (again) is May 19, so this year is 5+19+2019=2043/9, so I am having a 9 year this year.

The way you figure your personal month is quite brilliant. There’s a chart in the book which makes the whole idea quite easy to understand. I’m in a 9 year, which kind of messes up the entire system but it still works if you understand basic math.

The Personal Day number is also easy to calculate. You just take your Personal Month number and add it to the Day in question. I can see this being very handy if you are looking forward in time – if you are wondering what kind of day you might be having on a certain date in a few weeks or months. This is a new idea for me and one I plan to start using.

All these numbers comprising your Personal Year, Month and Days are important when you consider your Power Cycles. As Gabrielle explains, “There are certain Personal Years, Months and Days that activate one of the numbers in your Three important Birth numbers. When this happens you will feel an intensification of energy. You’ll experience profound growth…” (138)

Not only does she say to “make a note” of these upcoming Power Cycles but that you will have several of these Power Cycle Personal Days “each and every month” – so “you are never without this surge of energy.” (138). Isn’t that great to know? Now all we have to do is learn how to use our Numbers to harness these Power Cycles – which is what the next chapter is all about!

The last chapter in the book is about addresses – where you live. She stresses that it’s only the numbers in the address that matter, not the name of the street. The only time a letter will matter is if it’s part of your address, as in an apartment number, i.e. #3B.

I was a bit alarmed because Gabrielle writes to avoid “addresses that initially add up to 11, 29, 38, or 47” (160) and my new apartment falls into that category! Also it’s not recommended for Birth Code Number 1! Maybe that’s why I’ve locked myself out of my apartment three times already and I haven’t even been here a full two months! I love it here but I’m beginning to think that this apartment doesn’t want me here. I signed a year’s lease so I’m going to be here for a while but this is something to remember the next time I’m looking.

All in all, I think this is a fabulous little book and one that I will refer to for years to come. If you are looking for an easy-to-read book with clear charts and major concepts set out with bullet points, this is for you. I cannot recommend it enough. Go to your favorite bookseller and buy it today!

A quick introduction to numerology that is easy to understand and delves into all the important aspects of discovering how you relate to the numbers in your birthdate, birth name and home address. Tania shows how all the numbers in your life relate together as well as their individual meanings. Besides the basic reading you'd get in most numerology texts, she also shows the root number meanings and gives multiple example readings to help you grasp the concepts discussed. Finally, Tania delves into day, month and year cycle numbers to help with daily/monthly and yearly readings so you can better understand where you are at in your life and what to expect in the near future. Overall, a great overview to numerology for any beginner to the concept.

Chapters organized by significant numbers from your life, such as birth date and life number. Includes case studies for various famous people, so you can see how the calculations work. This will be very popular at our library, by which I mean it'll be stolen almost immediately.

This book was a great introduction into numerology. It's easy to read and very interesting, but really doesn't teach anything new. Still was an enjoyable read though.

Numerology is really something that always catches my eyes and ears when it's being brought about around me, so when the chance to read Tania's Gabrielle book and understand a bit more, I really couldn't pass the chance!

With such a smooth writing, and very warm and easy explaining, it was a very nice read, easy to try and follow the examples! It really peeked even more my interest in it, and now I really want to read and research even more about it!

I was given this book by NetGalley and The publishers in exchange for an honest review.

Before reading this book, I had no idea about numerology and your path number. After reading this book I can't stop researching my path number which is 9. My life path number gives me an insight on my purpose in this world. I love it. If you are curious in learning your life path number and how this can help bring meaning to your life. Pick up a copy of this book and share it with your friends and family.

This book was very interesting and very easy to read and understand. I have wondered about numerology and this was a perfect book to read. It was interesting to see the meaning behind numbers. Thanks to Netgalley, the author and the publisher for the arc of this book in return for my honest review. Receiving the book in this manner had no bearing on my review.

I highly recommend this book for all who enjoy learning more about numerology. This was a ARC from the publisher and Net Galley for review. My opinion is my own..

The Numerology Handbook is the perfect read for a beginner new to the craft as well as those with a previous knowledge of Numerology or anyone who wants to improve their skills. The author has written a explanatory format that is easy to follow and put into practice. The tables and diagrams are easy to follow . The author provides easy examples for you to put into practice. Each example breaks down how to calculate the number required . You can therefore interpret the numbers easily and known that you are accurate. I found this most helpful and written in such a way anyone can follow along even those very new to the craft.
i highly recommend this book and found it a utterly fascinating read.

I requested this book because it sounded absolutely interesting. It really is! It covers birthday, birth name, personal cycles, even address numbers. It was a super fun read.

The Numerology Handbook was a great introductory read for a beginner wanting to learn everything Numerology.
The entire book format was simplistic yet self explanatory each chapter laid out in an easy to follow pattern which made the entire experience that much more enjoyable.
The corresponding tables and diagrams were easy to follow along and additional clarification was referenced including which chapter for more in depth descriptions of the applicable topics.

The use of celebrities in each example was a unique and relatable idea , learning the numerology pattern pertaining to Justin Timberlake or Martin Luther King etc was a really fun and interesting way to apply the number formulations and see how each number then corresponds to that persons traits both the desirable and challenging.
Each example expertly breaks down how to calculate the number required which was a great change from the overly complicated instruction in many other metaphysical books of this nature.

Being able to calculate and then interpret the numbers was simple and enjoyable and the accuracy of these numbers in relation to me as an individual was .really interesting and the entire science behind numerology is extremely fascinating especially understanding just how it relates to each of us as individuals.

This was one part of the book that truly inspired a new love for all things Numerology:
"Every number is a unique vibration with a profound meaning. Understanding your birth code , you will discover who you are at a soul level."

Many thanks to Tania Gabrielle for igniting the spark to delve deeper into the fascinating world of numerology I highly recommend this guide if you are keen to learn or just wanting to read all about Numerology.

Thanks to the publishing team amd Netgalley for the advanced copy.
(All opinions expressed are my own amd are unbiased)

This was great! I worked through it as I went along using my numbers and it was completely accurate, both for my positive qualities & my shadow side!

It was explained really well including examples for the more visual brained like myself. The only part I had to reread a couple of times was the personal year chapter.

I’d definitely recommend this to those who are just beginning to look into numerology or spirituality/law of attraction.

Easy to understand ways of figuring out what your 'numbers' are. When figuring out your numbers and reading your information it is often very accurate.

This is a brilliant little book that I want to buy for my math teacher friend. It’s facinating to see numbers in all forms of life and how it can react.

I know a little bit about numerology but this books taught me a lot more, like Personal Year numbers, Life Purpose and Destiny numbers. Pretty dang cool! I also learned that all my numbers are in the Mind Triad, which is pretty cool. It's easy to follow and anyone who loves working with numbers will love this book!

Will go live on my blog: 2/7/2019

I haven't followed numerology for a number of years, but when I saw Tania Gabrielle's "The Numerology Handbook" it was like a spark in me and I knew I had to grab it and refamiliarize myself. I tend to think of myself as highly logical, so I tend to think of numerology as just for fun. The more I read though, the more it resonated within me. This is a truly comprehensive guide to all things numerology. I especially like the section on addresses. I had never calculated mine before and I was shocked at how completely accurate it was, it even made a believer of my skeptical husband. If you've ever even questioned what numerology is, then I highly encourage you to pickup a copy of this book, you won't be disappointed.

I requested this book, because I was curious about if I could find out what the numbers in my Birthday and name could tell about myself and I got my curiosity satisfied :)
The Numerology Handbook tells / shows you how you can find your triad number and explains very well, what the numbers says about you without a bunch of fancy words :)

So if you interested in numerology or just a little curious to see what it could tell you about yourself, this book is a good one to start with :)
