Richard Cavendish (August 12, 1930 – October 21, 2016) was a British historian who studied mythology, religion, witchcraft, and the occult. He did not consider himself an occultist but primarily explored these fields. However, at least in the case of numerology, one might question whether he truly did not practice it himself. Cavendish didn’t just describe Chaldean or Hebrew numerology but developed his own alphanumeric coding of Latin Alphabet based on the Greek and Hebrew alphabets.
A centuries-old method of alphanumeric coding, which Richard Cavendish also arrived at in his own way. This system differs from Cheiro’s model only in the numeration of the letter X.
This kind of coding had been used centuries before, but it’s clear that despite his historical knowledge, Cavendish did not have access to all historically relevant information. Therefore, he was unaware of the existence of such alphanumeric coding. His numerology is thus a blend of tarot card descriptions, the mentioned alphanumeric coding, and the Pythagorean approach to vowels and consonants. He published his knowledge of numerology in 1967 in the book The Black Arts: A Concise History of Witchcraft, Demonology, Astrology, and Other Mystical Practices Throughout the Ages.
In his numerological chart, we find his birthdateon the 12th, whose base number is 3. The number 3 represents the significance of tradition, values, law, and history. The number 6 (33, 96, 78, 24) is strongly expressed, representing home, while the number 18 in his name and the number 63 as the Goal number sociologically point to the concept of war. With all these numbers, it’s no wonder he became a historian. All of this is further strengthened by the connection between the numbers 3, 6, and 9.
His Total Name Number (TNN) is 96, and his consonant total is 78. These two numbers add up to 15. The number 96 is aligned and can bring good fortune in performances or lectures. The number 78 is connected with the number 8 (26; 2+6=8). When the number 15 meets the number 8, there’s a likelihood of manipulation (such a person can either be a victim of manipulation or manipulate others), and often such a person has a peculiar relationship with the occult. As we can see, the number 15 is only partially exposed to this—the problematic part is the placement of the number 78. In all cases, 15 can represent magic, and in combination with the number 8, it can even signify witchcraft or black magic. It was precisely the number 15 that led Cavendish to his desire to research mythology, magic, and the occult in general.
Gerun Moore (1910–2010) was an American Chaldean numerologist and musician. He was born in March 1910 in New Orleans as Sterling Guerin. According to his own claims, he was born on March 10, but therapist John Ensminger, who visited him in a nursing home, explicitly noted that his last birthday was on Saturday, March 13, 2010. It is very likely that March 10 was simply a “new birthday” for Gerun Moore, as he, being a numerologist, advocated for changing the vibrations of one’s birthdate by celebrating on a favorable day close to the actual birthday. This favorable day would have a base number from the key of the original birthdate. In Moore’s case, the key numbers associated with his birthdate were said to be 1 and 7.
His father was also a musician. Gerun Moore followed in his footsteps and performed in a well-known jazz band Louis Prima Orchestra. Even before World War II, he began delving deeply into numerology. He initially explored Pythagorean numerology, too, but during the war, he became a strong advocate of the Chaldean school. Influenced by Cheiro’s teachings, Moore developed his own approach and changed his name to Gerun Moore. He started celebrating his birthday on March 10. Later, he wrote a book titled Numbers Will Tell. A Basic Guide to Numerology. He was known for his kindness, laughter, and joy.
Gerun Moore used alpha-numeric encoding as advocated by Cheiro
His birth numerology chart reveals a lot of negative energy. In his name, surname, and Total Name Number (TNN) as Sterling Guerin, we find difficult numbers: 26, 22, and 84 (or 12; 8+4=12). His Life Path Number was also an unfavorable 18, and in such circumstances, even a birthday on the 13th of the month represents challenges and negative influences. This numerology chart is very demanding, but Sterling Guerin’s consonants at least create somewhat more favorable numbers. However, the number 21, like the TNN 84, is not a number that aligns well with the number 13.
There are many numbers that can be associated with music and art. For example, 15 and 6, which gives stage art, and in the case of Sterling Guerin, 13 (Birth number) may be related. Sometimes the numbers 2 (consonants in personal name) and 7 (goal number) are associated with music. Likewise, the number 3 (TNN 84 and consonant total 21) can bring art, especially when it comes to stage performances. Sterling Guerin’s interest in the occult was probably related to the formation of the numbers 3&6&9, the birthday 13 and the number 7.
Despite the challenging vibrations in Sterling Guerin’s numerology chart, there are several spiritual indicators. If Guerin leaned on the power of faith and spiritual values, he could have greatly alleviated his life. The chart also brings some manifestation abilities and talent for public performances, whether in the media or on stage. Even difficult charts can reveal talents, and Sterling Guerin found his path to the stage.
After changing his name, Gerun Moore retained some indicators for manifestation and spiritual qualities and gained more vibrations of love. His new TNN was 37, which is a highly favorable number. Moore referred to the TNN as the “ruling name number.” Name numbers brought very strong and favorable vibrations, despite the consonant number being 16. When an unfavorable number is surrounded by many positive numbers, its harmful influence is greatly reduced. Whether we consider the 13th or 10th of March as his birthday, the new vibrations are very favorable. Numbers 37 and 13 are also interchangeable, bringing more completeness to life. Additionally, these numbers have an alignment that can bring a youthful spirit.
The new name contains the numbers 11, 25, 21 and 16, which may be associated with music. Also 1 in such a chart can be directed towards artistic talents, especially 37, which is his new TNN. Vibrations that may give an interest in the occult have also been retained (21, 25, 16, 11…).
The numerological change that Gerun Moore made was, therefore, favorable and brought more harmony and satisfaction into his life.
Although he greatly respected Cheiro, as a Chaldean numerologist, Gerun Moore did not believe in the validity of summing unreduced numbers. He rejected Cheiro’s complex method of finding the most powerful active compound number in a numerology chart. Furthermore, he did not trust Cheiro’s model of lucky numbers based on specific days of the year. After three decades of research, Moore developed the so-called “Name Number Chart.” This chart represents a system of “keys,” numbers that bring the most balance to a numerology chart. Almost every date has two such keys, and in three cases, dates have only one key. Moore believed that a name change should always include numbers found in these keys.
Personally, I do not use his keys, as any numerology chart can be studied in different ways. Additionally, there is no consensus among numerologists about which numbers bring the most luck based on specific days of the year. Cheiro presented his model of lucky numbers, and a few years after Gerun Moore, Lloyd Strayhorn, another influential modern Chaldean numerologist, did the same. Neither Cheiro, Linda Goodman, nor Gerun Moore emphasized the Life Path Number, nor the numbers of vowels and consonants. Various analyses show that these numbers should also be considered.
In his book, Gerun Moore also presented his findings on the relationship between numbers and musical instruments. His conclusions are likely quite accurate, as he was a musician who could study the numerology charts of many colleagues. Additionally, he demonstrated connections between numbers and plant species, as well as the relationship between numbers and sexuality.
One of Gerun Moore’s more notable ideas, as mentioned, was his advocacy of the idea that a birthday can be “changed” by celebrating it on a favorable day in the month. In reality, we cannot change our birthdate. What we are actually changing is the vibration. In Slovenia, this approach was adopted by a numerologist (then named Naca Jermanj), who observed in many cases that celebrating a birthday on a favorable day indeed brought good fortune. Certainly, Gerun Moore’s book should have a place in every Chaldean numerologist’s library.
Lloyd Strayhorn is an American numerologist and astrologer known for his numerology book Numbers and You: A Numerology Guide for Everyday Living. The first editions of this book were published around 1980. In it, he primarily advocates Chaldean numerology(based on Cheiromethod), although he also uses it alongside Pythagorean numerology. So, a part of the book is also dedicated to the latter system. Lloyd Strayhorn has been present in the American public for over 40 years and has influenced many Chaldean numerologists.
Lloyd Strayhorn uses alpha-numeric encoding as advocated by Cheiro
In the mentioned book, he identified which numbers govern certain sports, musical instruments, and gifts based on Chaldean calculations of individual words. This approach was likely adopted from some Pythagorean numerologists and, in my opinion, is largely misguided. It overlooks the universal vibration of a sport, instrument, or gift.
More interesting are his studies on the connection of numbers with specific zodiac signs and numbers, compatibility between partners’ numbers, the relationship between numbers and sexuality, the dynamics between parents and children, the connection between numbers and childbirth, and similar topics. In this book, Strayhorn also mentions a special Rosicrucian approach to life cycles, where the year is divided into 7 periods of 52 days each. Interestingly, in this book, he does not address compound numbers.
He also attempts to establish the principle of a personal week. He supports the Pythagorean approach to universal and personal years, months, and days. I won’t say that this approach has no influence, but my research on days, months, and years has led me to the conclusion that this Pythagorean method yields, at best, very weak results.
His descriptions of relationships between numbers slightly differ from those of Cheiro. Like Gerun Moore, he created his own table of lucky numbers for each day of the year (while Gerun Moore speaks of key numbers). In his book Lloyd’s Numbers and You Relationship Guide: A Cosmic Way To Better Understanding, in the chapter on relationships (Chapter Two), he slightly diverges from the usual approach in Chaldean numerology. In some cases, I use similar approaches myself, but some solutions leave me surprised and skeptical.
Unfortunately, I don’t have data on his birth date, but we can look at his numerological chart based on his name and surname. In my calculation of vowels and consonants, you may also notice from other examples that I treat the letter Y as a consonant. Personally, I believe that treating this letter in this way yields the best results in analysis.
We particularly notice a multitude of numbers that add up to base numbers 3, 6, and 9. This is a triad of powerful numbers that often bring material success or an interest in business, the ability to manifest, or spiritual interest. The placement of numbers 24 and 15 (78; 7+8=15) is such that it brings a sense of communication, public presence, and performance. Lloyd Strayhorn has written several books and also appears in the media. The occult search is brought about by the numbers 7, 78, 30, 39, 11 and 22, and probably also by the heavenly 7 in the vowels.
Although much depends on his birth numbers, a significant feature of his name and surname numerological chart is that the energies can work in a positive or negative direction, depending on what Lloyd Strayhorn chooses. Recommendations for him include: no manipulation (78), balanced help to others, tithing, and praying to God. In this way, numbers like 93 (and 12; 9+3=12) and 15 are balanced. The name Lloyd Strayhorn can bring certain complications, unfortunate circumstances, or an undesired sacrifice in life. However, it can also lead to a higher purpose, good deeds, and inner fulfillment.
Walter Gorn Old, also known as Sepharial (born March 20, 1864, died December 23, 1929), was an occultist, astrologer, numerologist, and theosophist who also studied medicine, psychology, and oriental languages. He was a friend of Helena Blavatsky and one of the founding members of the Theosophical Society. Around 1894, he parted ways with Blavatsky.
He was born Walter Richard Old on March 20 and later changed his name to Walter Gorn Old (also Gornold or Gorn-Old). This change is believed to have occurred in 1895, the same year he published Kabalistic Astrology, or Your Fortune in Your Name, a book on Kabbalistic astrology (type of Chaldean numerology). Initially, he worked as a Kabbalistic astrologer, utilizing the “external values method of alpha-numeric coding.”
In this form of astrology—though it is more accurately described as a peculiar type of astro-numerology—numbers are closely connected with the tarot. The numbers from I to XXII (the Major Arcana) hold special power. In addition, there are the so-called Royal Stars, which represent the four kings of the suits of wands, cups, swords, and pentacles: the Royal Star of Leo (XXIII), the Royal Star of Taurus (XXXVII), the Royal Star of Aquarius (LI), and the Royal Star of Scorpio (LXV). Likewise, the ace of wands (also known as the ace of sceptres; XXVII), ace of swords (LV), and ace of pentacles (LXIX), along with numbers XLIII and VXXI, are said to hold special potency. Sepharial added meanings for numbers XXIV, XXV, XXVI, and XXVIII to these already established values, greatly influencing Kozminsky and Cheiro. This leads us to the interpretations of numbers in Sepharial’s numerological tarot.
Around 1911, influenced by Isidore Kozminsky and Habeeb Ahmad, Sepharial developed his own alpha-numeric coding system in Chaldean numerology. He also explored phonetic numerology. His most well-known work on numerology is The Kabala of Numbers from 1911.
His original name, Walter Richard Old, results in a Total Name Number (TNN) of 35 and 17, with a base number of 8. This is the number of Saturn and does not align with his birth date of the 20th, which has a base number of 2. For a person with this combination of numbers like Sepharial, there is a possibility that the relationship between the numbers 8 and 2 can be somewhat alleviated, redirecting the energies into creative communication or even manifestation. The challenge with this card lies in the presence of too many unfavorable numbers, which diminish the quality of life and thus limit the possibility of fully resolving the relationship between 2 and 8.
The key number in Walter Richard Old’s numerology chart is the base number 2. The number 2 represents psychology and can also indicate an interest in the occult sciences. Additionally, the number 2 is often associated with nurses and hospitals, and Sepharial did study medicine. His talent for languages is suggested by his inclination toward creative communication, especially in the numbers 2 and 4. This potential is partially reinforced by the numbers 1 and 7.
His new name, Walter Gorn Old, has a TNN of 16 or 34 with base number 7. The dominant influence of these TNNs, along with his interest in psychology and the occult, brings certain complications and blows of fate. At the same time, the connection between the birth date of the 20th and the TNN creates a link between the numbers 2 and 7. These are interchangeable numbers, strengthening each other and giving the person a unique power. Numbers with base numbers 7 and 5 are arranged in a special intellectual structure, which indicates a gift for intellectual work and research. Children are represented by the numbers 23 and 24 in the date numbers, and generally by base numbers 5, 6, and 8. Sepharial had many of these numbers and also had many children. However, it is not guaranteed that someone with child-related numbers in their chart will actually have children. If they do, such numbers help explain family relationships.
With his new name, Sepharial retained some potential for manifestation, but his numerology chart carried predominantly negative energies. Throughout his life, Sepharial faced occasional financial difficulties, often having to move with his family and take on additional jobs beyond astrological counseling.
His pen name was Sepharial. This name carries the primary vibration of the number 29. In older European Kabbalistic traditions, this number reduces to 11, which represents the Arcana XI, or “Force.” It is considered an ambivalent number of fighters. However, in very old traditions and by most modern Chaldean numerologists, this number is regarded as unlucky, as it brings conflicts and emotional suffering.
Sepharial’s life challenges, the change of his name, and the use of an unfortunate pen name can serve as an example of what can happen when a name change is not suitable. Changing a name should enhance one’s quality of life, but this was not the case for Sepharial.

Isidore Kozminsky was reportedly born on October 25, 1870. He grew up in a family of Australian Jews and jewelers. He was known as an astrologer, numerologist, and an expert on gemstones and the Kabbalah. Because he married outside of Jewish circles, he adopted the name Francis Coton and moved with his family from Australia to London in 1935. Isidore Kozminsky remained his pen name. He died during World War II, but the exact time and cause of his death are unclear. One account suggests he died after tripping down an escalator in the London underground, while another claims he succumbed to pneumonia.
Isidore Israel Kozminsky, born on 25th October 1870
His numerological chart for the name Isidore Kozminsky shows a strong and quite favorable alignment of energies. It includes the auspicious numbers 23 and 55, as well as the number 96, which can be unfavorable (depending on how often it encounters the numbers 4 and 8). His chart reveals a strong relationship between 1 and 6, which often suggests a love of luxury and likely influenced his interest in gemstones. Numbers 96 and 24 bring a certain level of material comfort. Numbers 1 and 5 are positioned in a way that enhances the role of intellect, knowledge, and information. Numbers 96, 17 and 25 indicate an interest in the occult, with 96 potentially invoking darker spiritual influences. Therefore, due to the number 96, he needed to be cautious of the darker aspects of spirituality and manipulation. Base number 5 (23, 32) also signifies an interest in numbers, giving him some potential for communication and writing.
The reader can see that I treat the letter Y as a consonant. There is no consensus among numerologists on this, but studying various cases shows that it is more appropriate to treat Y as a consonant.
In 1905, Kozminsky wrote Numbers, Their Magic and Mystery, where he advocated for the Chaldean-Hebrew system with the values C = 2, H = 8, and X = 6 (the external values method of alpha-numeric coding). In 1912, he published Numbers: Their Meaning and Magic. Being an Enlarged and Revised Edition, in which he shifted to a coding system where C = 2, H = 5 or 8, and X = 5. This approach had a significant influence on Cheiro.
The method Kozminsky used for summing numbers in the Total Name Number (TNN) is controversial and outdated. Based on a specific form of Kabbalistic astrology, which Sepharial also endorsed, he identified certain numbers from 1 to 28 as having “potency of their own,” as well as numbers 37, 43, 51, 55, 65, 69, and 71. According to this system, if a name or surname corresponds to a number with its own potency, it is not reduced to a basic value. If it does not have its own potency, the number must be reduced to the first number that does. For example, the name Napoleon Buonaparte (an earlier version of the famous French general’s name) vibrates at 41 & 41. Since 41 does not have its own potency in Sepharial’s system, it must be reduced to 5 (4+1=5).

In the case of Isidore Kozminsky, we get the name value 23 and the surname value 5 (from 32, which is reduced as 3+2=5). The sum is 28, which has its own potency and therefore does not get reduced to 10. The number 28 is considered a key number and is regarded as an unfavorable one. For the name Francis (8+2+1+5+2+1+3) Coton (2+7+4+7+5), the name sums to 22 and the surname to 25. 22 is generally unlucky, while 25 was considered fortunate in older traditions. The total is 47, which does not have its own potency and must be reduced to 4+7=11. The TNN value is 11, which Kozminsky treated as neutral. Since he was born under base number 7, we get interchangeable numbers. Kozminsky likely believed that his new name, Francis Coton, would be lucky.
In horse racing, Kozminsky adopted phonetic numerology (books Numbers and Horse Racing, 1928, and My Key Treatise, 1936). He believed that for humans, the written name was influential, while for animals, the spoken name held more power. In 1937, he also published Numbers And Their Practical Application, in which he used a reformed Chaldean coding system for interpreting people’s numerological charts, diverging significantly from Cheiro’s model. He also provided weaker descriptionsof numbers compared to his earlier works.
According to his reformed alpha-numeric coding system, the name Isidore Kozminsky carried the values 26 and 35. In the new book, Kozminsky did not explain how to calculate the TNN. According to his earlier method in Numbers, Their Magic and Mystery, the number 35 is not given its own potency and is reduced to 8. The sum of 26+8=34. However, the name Francis Coton gives the name value 25 and the surname value 25. These combine to 50, which he considered his TNN. Nonetheless, the alpha-numeric coding used by Kozminsky in the final years of his life no longer had much influence.
According to the classic Chaldean alpha-numeric coding model (Cheiro’s approach), the name Francis Coton results in a numerological chart, which contains more unfavorable numbers. The chart is rather weak and shows conflicts between the numbers 23 and 26, 58 and 33, 26 and 58, and 33 and 28. This chart no longer indicates as much interest in gemstones, although some financial potential and interest in communication remain. The strong number 58 indicates a tendency toward eccentricity and reforms, which likely did not go in the right direction. We can see that Kozminsky’s numerological expertise declined in his later years. The information he disseminated lost touch with the Chaldean tradition and reliable interpretation.
Numbers 58 and 71 together emphasize the themes of death and difficulties. The surname Coton carries very unfavorable vibrations of 26 and 12, represented as a pillar. This might have influenced the spread of the story about the escalator accident. The numbers 8 (2+6=8) and 3 (1+2=3) can represent buildings, with 8 also symbolizing railways and underground structures. The number 12 can represent a pillar, which may symbolize ascending or descending via escalators. The conflict between 58 and 33, and between 23 and 26, could be connected to respiratory illnesses. Thus, both stories of his death have roots in his numerological chart. The interaction between number 58 and numbers 26 and 71 represents a conflict between base numbers 4 and 8. This pair often indicates significant difficulties and suffering. 58 is also an unfavorable TNN for period 6 (October, extended influence of Libra).
It becomes clear that in Isidore Kozminsky’s case, the name and surname change brought about unfortunate circumstances. Fortunately, Isidore Kozminsky continued to use his original name in his writing. The number 69 in the name Isidore Kozminsky also interacts with the number 58 in the name Francis Coton, adding to the negative influences. 69 reduces to 15, and 15, in its negative aspect, represents manipulation and even black magic. This might explain why Kozminsky’s books carry an unusual vibration. After reading them, I had to cleanse my aura several times. It would have been much better if Isidore Kozminsky had kept his original name in his everyday life. So, a word of caution: one must be careful when changing names. The goal of a name change should be to increase satisfaction or success in life, not to accumulate problems.
A numerological chart or numeroscope (from Latin numerus = “number” and Greek σκόπος = “observer, watcher”) is a comprehensive display of name and date numbers associated with one’s destiny. There is no unified approach among numerologists regarding what exactly a numeroscope should include or how it should be visually represented. Each numerologist designs the numerological chart in their own way.
In Chaldean numerology, for many practitioners, the numerological chart includes only the name number, surname number, Total Name Number (TNN), and Birth date number. Some add the Life Path number and a special Goal number, which is derived from the Birth date number and the TNN (also referred to as the Career number or Hidden number). Chaldean numerologists rarely consider the number derived from the day and month of birth.
Complex numeroscopes first appeared in modern Pythagorean numerology after World War I. These numeroscopes are also the most standardized. They display name numbers, which are divided into vowel numbers (Soul Urge, Soul or Heart’s Desire), consonant numbers (Personality, Body or Quiescent Self), and whole numbers (Expression, Mind). For date numbers, the Life Path is primarily considered, while predictions use Pinnacles, Challenges, letter transits, and universal and personal years, months, and days. A special Goal number is also used, derived from the TNN and Life Path. In the last 20 years, the interpretation of so-called Arrows has also become widespread.
There are, of course, mutual influences and shared foundations between Chaldean and Pythagorean numerology. The differences between the two schools are not as significant as some claim. Unfortunately, some Chaldean numerologists have gone so far as to uncritically adopt all Pythagorean techniques for designing and interpreting numerological charts. For example, personal years, months, and days have such a minimal effect that their use causes more confusion than clarity.
In Chaldean numerology, vowel and especially consonant numbers are crucial for proper interpretation and, in my opinion, should be included in the numerological chart. In fact, these numbers were already known in 19th-century Chaldean numerology, but this knowledge faded into obscurity. After World War II, Chaldean numerologists began using them again under the influence of the Pythagorean school. The Life Path number should also be considered, even though it does not hold as much significance as the day of the month number.
My style of numerology chart using Nikola Tesla as an example.
Some modern numerologists (both Chaldean and Pythagorean) have gone a step further by introducing various other numbers. In Chaldean numerology, the growth of the Danish numerology school (August Darius Danielsson, Johannes and Estel Ehwass, Novalee Wilder) is especially notable. This school connects name and date numbers in a special way with the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, which is typically represented in the shape of a rhombus.
August Darius Danielsson, apparently the founder of this school, calls the basic numerological Tree of Life (represented as rhombus) “The Human Self,” while the basic date matrix is represented as a triangle, which he calls “The Higher Self.” Date numbers also create a parallel with “The Human Self,” forming an additional Tree of Life. Danielsson refers to this rhombus as “The Highest Self.” Each of these sections contains a multitude of numbers.
The Ehwass duo presents a similar structure for the numerological chart. They call “The Human Self” the “Name Chart,” and “The Highest Self” the “Psychic Chart.” They retain the name “The Higher Self.” For consonant numbers, they design their Tree of Life/rhombus as the “Personality Chart,” and for vowel numbers as the “Vocation Chart.”
The Danish school, therefore, introduced advanced standardized numerological charts. However, it diverges significantly from the traditional understanding of how to calculate name numbers. Practitioners of this school create composite numbers from non-composite name or surname numbers, which then become the actual name or surname numbers. They do something similar with date numbers in “The Highest Self”/”Psychic Chart.” Members of this school also calculate so-called year ranks and day ranks, which they use for prediction. Personally, I do not belong to the Danish school. I have reservations both about their application of the Tree of Life and their method of calculating name numbers.

Presidential candidate Donald Trump has apparently survived one assassination attempt and a second incident that nearly resulted in another attempt within a span of three months. The assassination attempt took place on July 13, 2024. On Sunday, September 15, 2024, there was another incident in Florida, where the potential attacker was neutralized before they could shoot.
Trump’s numerology chart, based on the principles of Chaldean numerology, shows the significant influence of the number 8 in his chart. There are also strong presences of the numbers 3 and 5. With such a chart, it’s important to avoid numbers with base numbers 4 and 8, as well as the number 15 in all its variations.
From a numerological perspective, the year 2024 brings energies of change for Donald Trump, which can often be negative. We can see that these energies might even be life-threatening for him. July 13, 2024, is connected with the number 4, which is positioned in a way that could represent weapons, gunfire, or explosions. The day was marked by potential conflicts, as well as a quest for authority. In fact, the assassination attempt occurred at a campaign rally where Donald Trump was indeed playing the role of an authority figure. The incident on September 15, 2024, occurred under extremely strong presence of number 4, which was present in the form of the number 13. In Tarot this number is called “Death.”
It’s important to note that numerology does not predict assassinations, death, or any specific events, but rather highlights favorable and unfavorable influences and the potential areas where these influences may manifest. Often, it’s also challenging to determine the intensity of an energy’s influence.
Some people who, in addition to numerology, are well-versed in astrology and highly intuitive may be able to foresee many events. However, this can be a trap, as it’s not advisable to offer predictions to clients. If clients direct their emotions and energy toward these predictions, it can become difficult to alter the course of events.
The number 6 is one of the numbers, associated with the Russia-Ukraine war, and the number 4 is strongly connected to the United States. This combination might have been a contributing factor in the preparation of the attack on the presidential candidate. The suspect is a strong supporter of Ukraine, while Trump is willing to quickly end the Russia-Ukraine war, which could endanger Ukrainian interests or benefit Russian imperial policy.
Prince Harry (Henry Charles Albert David), the Duke of Sussex, is the son of King Charles II. Recently, he’s been known for his public feud with the royal family, which gained widespread attention after the release of his book, Spare. Born on the 15th of the month, his birthdate aligns with Venus, a number often associated with a desire for fame and attention. His chart also includes other numbers that amplify these tendencies—such as the numbers 24 and 11, which give him a gift for communication. However, this gift might come at a cost—success in the public eye may be tied to challenges, such as pressure or sacrifices in personal relationships.
Prince Harry (born 15 September 1984)
Prince Harry’s chart is dominated by less favorable numbers. Chaldean numerology doesn’t concern itself with whether someone is born into a royal family, a political dynasty, or a wealthy household. Rather, it reflects the opportunities and pressures revealed in a person’s numerological profile. Someone with less fortunate numbers, like Prince Harry, must rely on inner strength, regardless of their social background. This inner resilience offers an opportunity for personal growth. Therefore, changing one’s name isn’t necessarily the key to improving life quality.
In Prince Harry’s case, the dynamic between the Birth Number 15 and his Total Name Number (TNN) 62 is especially significant. This combination brings challenges, confrontations, either with negativity from others or his own internal struggles. The number 15 in conjunction with the number 8 can involve manipulation or even the risk of depressive states. Individuals with this number are often subject to manipulation by others or, in some cases, manipulate others themselves.

The TNN 62 is associated with Saturn, which typically brings difficulties in relationships. People with this number should be cautious about whom they trust, as they could face significant challenges in love, business, or career. Numbers 11, 62, and 86 form a chain of base numbers 2, 5, and 8, representing an emotional intensity that can be difficult to manage.
In Western astrology, Jyotish, and Chinese astrology (Ziwei Doushu), close personal relationships are often represented by various “houses” (or “palaces” in Ziwei Doushu). In Chinese Bazi astrology, known as the Four Pillars of Destiny, each of the so-called “ten gods” corresponds to a different relationship. In numerology, certain numbers can similarly represent the people closest to us.
For Prince Harry, the numbers 1 and 6 are prominent (as is partially the number 8). These two numbers, interestingly, also represent his brother. It’s important to note that just because someone’s chart contains numbers symbolizing a partner, sibling, or child doesn’t mean they’ll necessarily have those relationships. However, if they do, these numbers can offer insight into how the relationship might function.
The numbers 1 and 6 in the vowels of Harry’s chart suggest a deep spiritual and genuine connection between him and his brother, Prince William, especially during their younger years, when people tend to be less guarded. Over time, though, the conflict between the numbers 10 and 18 has grown, which could signify a rift, as the number 10, with a base number of 1, also represents a brother. Nevertheless, the chart indicates that their relationship could improve over time. If Prince Harry seeks inner strength, he may find a way to restore the positive connection represented by the numbers 1 and 6.
The experiences Prince Harry has had with his brother could be applied to his relationship with his wife, Meghan Markle. Interestingly, the numbers 1 and 6 also represent his wife, suggesting that wisdom is needed to navigate this relationship. However, indicators for Meghan are more scattered and include the numbers 5 and 8 as well. Meghan’s chart differs from Prince William’s, so the dynamics aren’t exactly the same. It seems Harry and Meghan are working toward common goals, which is a positive sign.
This analysis is based on Harry’s chart alone. If we look at Meghan Markle’s chart, she has a TNN of 58, a birthdate of 4, and a Life Path 4. This makes her strongly associated with the number 4, which can bring more positive karma than usual 4. However, the numbers 4 and 15 are in opposition, as 15 should not intersect with 4.
The active energy between the two TNNs is the key here. Meghan’s TNN 58 and Harry’s 62 create a connection between the numbers 4 and 8, which typically results in tension and challenges. However, partnerships often operate under different rules, and people with base numbers 4 and 8 are generally drawn to one another. When their relationship is deep enough, they can achieve great things together and provide strong mutual support.
Yet, the karma of numbers 4 and 8 remains unpredictable. Combined with the challenging relationship between numbers 4 and 15, the chart suggests that both partners need to find inner strength to overcome the destructive aspects of their fates.
Harry’s father is represented by the number 9, specifically 18 (1+8=9), which is generally not a favorable number. Through the number 24, Harry has a positive connection with his father, but the number 10 could lead to conflict. The numbers with base numbers 1, 6, and 9 form a triangle representing the relationships between His Majesty, Prince William, and Princ Harry.
Prince Harry’s mother is primarily symbolized by the number 2, specifically 11 (1+1=2), a highly emotional and often unhappy number that governs issues like love struggles, disappointments, and separations. The numbers 11 (mother) and 18 (father) are not compatible, though this dynamic is not strongly emphasized and would need to be confirmed through the parents’ charts. In addition to number 2, his mother might also be represented by numbers 5 and 8. The number 62 (6+2=8) warns against overwhelming emotions, and the number 86 (8+6=14; 1+4=5) can signify travel or the risk of car accidents (number 14!).
Much of this hinges on Lady Diana’s own numerological chart and astrological profiles. Lady Diana, also known as Lady Di, has two significant charts. Her chart as Lady Diana is dominated by the number 12, often representing the role of the caregiver or martyr. As Lady Di, there’s a conflict between numbers 95 and 84, which are related to the numbers 14 and 12. This conflict could suggest sacrifice (12) through a car accident (14).
We can see, therefore, how the numbers in a person’s chart affect the lives of his or her loved ones. As a rule, the basic destiny is seen in one’s own chart. However, if the charts of his or her loved ones support an unfavourable or favourable situation, there is a higher probability of its manifestation. This is well known among astrologers, but not among numerologists, at least in general. At least not among those who do not practise astrology.
Prince Harry’s title, “Prince,” represents the more active component of his chart, while his name “Harry” combines active and passive elements. The passive aspect (usually represented by a surname, but in Harry’s case by his personal name) connects him to his family roots. Within the name Harry, we find the numbers 11 and a less favorable form of 10, signifying that his family roots may weigh heavily on him.
Interestingly, on a soul level, Prince Harry’s chart is dominated by “feminine numbers,” which enhance emotional communication, emphasized by the combination of numbers 2, 5, and 8.
On a more physical level, he possesses the masculine numbers 1 and 9. The relationship between the numbers 18 (base number 9) and 10 (base number 1) suggests conflict and tension, yet these numbers are also key indicators for a military career, which Harry appears to have navigated successfully. Due to this relationship and the nature of number 18, there’s a risk of accidents or military conflicts, a prediction reflected in Harry’s participation in the war in Afghanistan.
Prince Harry’s chart also contains several indicators of business potential. While these may not be very strong, and success might come with certain sacrifices, it’s worth pursuing. Developing a sense of authority and setting clear goals is essential to bring balance to his chart. However, he should be cautious of pride. All these can lead to an easier, more fulfilling life.
Every student of Chaldean numerology should be familiar with key modern Chaldean numerologists such as Sepharial, Isidore Kozminsky, Cheiro, Pandit Sethuraman, Richard Cavendish, Gerun Moore, Lloyd Strayhorn, and Linda Goodman. All of these numerologists were also astrologers.
Sepharial(Walter Gorn Old) played a crucial role in transitioning from the older Chaldean school of “Kabbalistic astrologers” to modern numerology. He also introduced classical descriptions of numbers from Kabbalistic astrology, where the highest number described in this approach is 71. He later wrote a very popular book, “Kabala of Numbers” (1911).
In his development, he initially used an external method of alphanumeric coding of the Latin alphabet (C = 2, H = 8, X = 6). Later, he tested several different alphanumeric approaches but ultimately decided on phonetic numerology.
Isidore Kozminsky, like Sepharial, experimented with various methods of alphanumeric coding. At the latest, in an updated edition of “Numbers: Their Meaning and Magic” in 1911, he was the first modern numerologist to predict that we should, in some cases, treat the letter H as 5. He also assigned the number 5 to the letter X. Like Sepharial, he described all the numbers he believed to have a “distinct potency of its own.” All other numbers he reduced to a number with such potency. His approach of dealing with name numbers is now considered outdated.
Cheiro(William John Warner) is regarded as the father of modern Chaldean numerology. He wrote several books covering numerology, with the most famous being “Cheiro’s Book of Numbers” (1926), where he advocated for the value of 3 for the letter C, 5 for the letter H, and 5 for the letter X.
He emphasized the importance of the Birth number (the day of the month one is born) and its connection to the Name number (that is, Total Name Number, aka TNN). He was one of the first to focus on the compatibility of numbers. He adopted Sepharial’s number descriptions, sometimes expanding them, so they corresponded to some very old descriptions. However, he described numbers only up to 52. He also wrote a book called “You and Your Star”, where he described the most suitable numbers for each day of the year based on astrological techniques.
Pandit Sethuraman, in his book “Science of Fortune” (1954), adopted Cheiro’s alphanumeric coding but summed the unreduced numbers of the first and last names. He also deviated from Cheiro’s views on number compatibility. Sethuraman expanded Cheiro’s descriptions based on his own insights and described numbers up to 108. Unlike Cheiro, he considered numbers 39 and 48 to be unfavorable.
Richard Cavendish, in his 1967 book “The Black Arts” (which has quite an inappropriate book title, especially in connection to astrology and numerology), introduced the classical internal method of alphanumeric coding (with C = 3, H = 8, X = 6), although he seems to have arrived at this through his own research. He emphasizes the importance of considering the numbers of vowels and consonants, a concept long neglected in Chaldean numerology.
Gerun Moore wrote a book in 1973 titled “Number Will Tell”. He adopted Cheiro’s alphanumeric coding system but made several changes and additions to the descriptions of numbers and the rules of compatibility. Notably, he described numbers 39 and 48 as the unlucky number 12.
He also rejected Cheiro’s model of favorable numbers for each day of the year. Instead, he created his own system, where each day of the year is generally assigned two suitable numbers (though in some cases, only one number is given). He labeled these numbers as “keys.” According to him, name numbers matching a person’s key numbers bring luck and harmony.
Lloyd Strayhorn wrote his book “Numbers and You: A Numerology Guide for Everyday Living” no later than 1980. He adopted Cheiro’s alphanumeric coding system. Although he prefers Chaldean numerology, he also considers Pythagorean numerology. Based on his research, Strayhorn introduced his own system of number compatibility, which differs somewhat from Cheiro’s model.
He also rejected Cheiro’s model of favorable numbers for each day of the year, offering instead his own astrological model with lucky numbers. He later published “Lloyd’s Numbers and You Relationship Guide: A Cosmic Blueprint to Happiness & Joy”, in which he distances himself significantly from older Chaldean approaches.
Linda Goodman published a book “Linda Goodman’s Star Signs” in 1987, which also introduces Chaldean numerology. She adopted Cheiro’s alphanumeric coding system and significantly enhanced the descriptions of numbers. However, her method of determining the TNN deviates from those of her predecessors.
Linda Goodman concludes the list of modern classics in Chaldean numerology. I believe that this list provides an appropriate foundation for studying contemporary Chaldean numerology.
There are also a few Chaldean numerologists who have uncritically incorporated Pythagorean methodsof interpreting numbers and relationships. While some ideas from the Pythagorean system can be adopted, not all Pythagorean techniques are suitable for Chaldean numerology.
There is a widespread belief that Friday the 13th is an unlucky day. In tradition, the number 13 is considered unlucky because there were 13 people present at the Last Supper (Jesus and the 12 apostles). In Norse mythology, the mischievous Loki, as the 13th guest, brought misfortune to the gods (the death of Balder). However, the negative connotations of the number 13 have even older roots, which can be found in Chaldean numerology.
Some take the connection between Friday and the number 13 even further, seeing it as representing the 13 lunar months. Both the Moon and Venus (the planet associated with Friday) are considered feminine planets. Based on this, the promotion of Friday the 13th as an unlucky day has been interpreted as a patriarchal attack on the feminine archetype and motherhood.
It’s also possible that the association between Friday the 13th and bad luck in Europe and the U.S. stems from the belief that Jesus died on Friday the 13th of Nisan. Regardless of the actual origin of the fear surrounding this day, we can explore what Chaldean numerology has to say about it. Some Chaldean numerologists warn that it is indeed a dangerous day because Friday is ruled by Venus, which corresponds to the number 6. In numerology, 6 and 13 (base number 4) are considered incompatible.
In reality, it’s difficult to definitively label Friday the 13th as either lucky or unlucky. Under certain conditions, there is even a possibility of favorable numerological interactions between the numbers 6 and 4. Besides 13 and 6, there are other numbers that influence a particular day. For example, the “Life Path” number of the specific day is also in play, along with several other numbers.
Additionally, the day of the week holds less significance than the day of themonth. We are still dealing mainly with the 13th of the month. The relationship between the day of the week and the day of the month is not crucial for an individual (in predictions!). What’s more important are the interactions between one’s personal numbers and the day of the week, as well as the interactions between one’s numbers and the day of the month. For instance, If our two key numbers are 1 and 5, then Friday the 13th is more likely to have a positive influence, at least based on the basic factors. However, if we have only one key number and that number is 4, Friday the 13th may not be an ideal day.
On an individual level, there are several ways to determine the personal influences of a particular day. Some personalization techniques have a stronger influence than others. The personal impacts of the day are affected by the birth date numbers, and to a lesser extent, by name numbers.
So, is Friday the 13th an auspicious or inauspicious day for you? According to Chaldean numerology, this is an inappropriate or overly general question. Based on individual influences, Friday the 13th could be a lucky day, a neutral day, or a day that brings challenges. To such a broad question, only a general answer is possible.
