Chinese Numerology, also known as “Chinese Metaphysics,” is a system that assigns significance to numbers and their combinations. This system, deeply entrenched in Chinese culture, is utilized to comprehend the impact of numbers on a person’s life, choices, and relationships.
The foundation of Chinese Numerology lies in Yin and Yang, the Five Elements (wood, fire, earth, metal, water), and the Eight Trigrams of the I Ching. These elements and trigrams correspond with numbers, perceived to influence different facets of life.
Chinese Numerology operates by examining the numbers linked to a person’s birth date, name, or other pivotal dates. Each number is considered to possess its distinctive energy and influence, which can be deciphered to divulge personality attributes, possible outcomes, and compatibility with others.
Tracing back thousands of years, the roots of Chinese Numerology are found in ancient Chinese philosophy, notably the I Ching (Book of Changes). It has been applied in various domains of Chinese culture, including astrology, feng shui, and medicine.
