Which numbers do individual planets govern?

If we examine the most typical ancient associations between numbers and planets, the following picture is obtained:

NumberPlanet
1 in 4Sun
2 in 7Moon
3Jupiter
5Mercury
6Venus
8Saturn
9Mars

Noticeably, the two main luminaries, the Sun and the Moon, each lay claim to two numbers in this setup, alongside one domicile each, whereas the remaining five luminaries adhere to the opposite: one number and two domiciles each. This arangements are used in Chaldean numerology.

Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa, a Pythagorean and eclectic numerologist, also renowned as a magician, astrologer, metaphysician, knight, soldier, physician, and lawyer, penned an extensive work titled ‘De Occulta Philosophia libri III’ (Three Books of Occult Philosophy’) between 1531 and 1535. In this work such arangements has already been described. Yet, those versed in ancient lore would concur that such arrangements have persisted for over two millennia. Number 4 also finds its resonance with the North Lunar Node and Uranus, while number 7 is tethered to the South Lunar Node and Neptune.

The planets’ secondary dominion is dictated by the days of the week, though it holds a lesser sway than the prior delineation:

1Sunday and Sun 
2Monday and Moon 
3Tuesday and Mars 
4Wednesday and Mercury 
5Thursday and Jupiter 
6Friday and Venus 
7Saturday and Saturn 
8Sunday and Sun again- secondaryConnected also to the North Lunar Node and Uranus
9Monday and Moon again – secondaryConnected also to the South Lunar Node and Neptune
