Numerology --
With an Eastern Approach
By Karl Mason
2005
30 years ago, I began working with numerology from a
different perspective than the traditional Western way. I began assigning planetary energies to each
of the numbers, and it wasn’t until the early 1991 that I discovered a book on
Vedic Numerology by Harish Johari that I saw how similar the Vedic system was
to what I was doing. Johari’s book
enabled me to expand my system even further and incorporate the energies of the
North and South Node, or Rahu and Ketu.
I have found that when looking at world events which
happen on “2” days – the 2nd, 11th, and 20th,
that little comes of the event, where, when world events happen on “4” and “8”
days, the 4th, 13th, 22nd, 8th, 17th,
and 26th, events can be quite destructive. I was living in California in 1993 and left
at the end of December, feeling that something dire was about to happen there,
and 17 days later, on January 17, 1994, an “8” day, one of the most devastating
earthquakes occurred in Southern California.
There are many other world events which support this theory, in fact,
the Tsunami in Indonesia occurred on December 26, 2004, an “8” day (add the
2+6=8).
In my system of Numerology, I pay more attention
initially to the date that someone was born on, such as the 3rd, 23rd,
30th, etc., and reduce this number to a single digit. I feel this number is much more intimate
with the person than the other numbers in their birth makeup. I still look at all the birth numbers added
up together, reduced to a single digit, but the true intimate soul of the
person comes from the single digit on which a person is born. For instance, regardless of what the rest
of the numbers in the birth date add up to, if the date on which they were born
is a “1” (born on the 1st, 10th, or 28th),
that person is going to be very independent, a real pioneer.
Men born on the 2nd, 20th, or 29th
find it more difficult than being born on other days of the month, where women
find it more difficult being born on the 9th, 18th, or 27th
day of the month. The “2” is the most
feminine number and “9” is the most masculine number.
Karl Mason was a professional numerologist in Houston
until his death in 2005. He hosted a
weekly call-in talk show on a radio station in Reno, Nevada, in the early
1990’s, and has been on Houston radio stations as well.
