    Numerology is the art of divination by examining the numbers associated with words, names, and other things.

    The most common Western Latin version of numerology works by the following method:

1. Replace all Latin (Roman) letters with the number of their order in the alphabet (A=1, B=2, C=3, ... Z=26).
2. Add all of the numbers together for the total for the word (advanced numerologists will use this number).
3. Take each digit of the resulting number and add them together (for example, 123 becomes 1+2+3)
4. Repeat the process (third step) until you reach a single digit total.
5. Apply the meaning of the single digit to the original word, name, etc.

    Please see each of the individual number articles for the specific meanings of each number.

    “There are some, King Gelon, who think that the number of grains of sand is infinite in multitude; and I mean by sand, not only that which exists about Syracuse and the rest of Sicily, but also that which is found in every region, whether inhabited or uninhabited. Again there are some, who, withou regarding it as infinite, nevertheless think that no number has been named which great enough to exceed its size.” —Archimedes, The Sand Reckoning
