Sometimes when reducing a birth date or birth name down to it's numerological equivalent the result will be a double-digit number such as 11, 22 and 33. Although they would be reduced down to a single digit for the purposes of a reading, the presence of these double-digit numbers are evidence of an enlightened or psychic individual.
These numbers are called Master numbers because they possess more potential than other numbers. Usually the personality of a master number is problematic in some way, as their behavior can be erratic, withdrawn, highly charged and difficult. This is the evidence of the higher self trying to propel the personality onto a higher path.
As the life purpose of a master number is to transcend the karma of past lives they often lead more difficult lives than most people do. The purpose of these challenges is to clear their slate so they can achieve yet one more level on the path to enlightenment.
The number 11 represents a deeply intuitive individual. It is indicative of creativity, a clear connection with the subconscious and psychic powers. A dreamy nature, nervous energy, shyness and impracticality often characterize a name that reduces to 11.
11's are often blessed with imagination and charisma. These potential leaders often collapse beneath the weight of their dual natures. One side strives for accomplishment and the other side strives to be moral at all costs. 11's are often the catalyst for inspiration in other people's lives and often don't receive credit for their works.
A person who is an 11 is always teetering on the fine edge between great accomplishments and self-destruction. The duality of their nature makes them more prone to addiction and phobias than other numbers. The key lesson that number 11s need to learn is to have faith, as opposed to analyzing all the time.
The number 22 is the most powerful of all of the personal numbers and is often referred to as the Master Builder. 22's have an incredible knack for manifesting dreams into reality by following through on practical actions. 22 posses the inspiration of 11 personalities combined with discipline and faith. People whose numbers and birth dates reduce down to 22 often achieve renown and glory during their lifetime.
The number 33 is called the Master Teacher Number. A combination of 11 and 22, these individuals has transcended their own desires and usually devote their lives to the spiritual enlightenment of mankind. These unique individuals are often characterized by their sincere devotion to humanity. 33 individuals are extremely rare.
The Master numbers 11, 22, and 33 represent the Triangle of Enlightenment with the number 11 representing vision, the number 22 representing action and the number 33 representing fulfillment of Divine Law.

The Core is the heart of any numerology analysis involving the personality portion of the reading. Much of the most important information in a numerology report is derived from the four elements making up the Core. These four elements are the Life Path (also known as the Career Number), Expression (also known as the Destiny Number), Soul Urge (also known as the Soul Number) and Birthday (The Birthday describes some important personality characteristics but it's the least important of the Core elements). vNumerology is the impure science of reducing names, birth dates and other significant dates down to their numerical equivalents in order to divine the future. However numerology is much more than an oracle. It is also a way of making profound investigations into your personality, your deepest drives and what makes you (or another person) tick.
It is also a surprisingly accurate method of determining what your potentials and limitations are when it comes to social relationships, career and love. It can also be a help you realize where you fit in terms of the "big picture" as well remind you of your original dreams and aspirations.
Each letter of the alphabet has a numeric value that is associated with a related cosmic vibration. The sum of the numbers in your birth date and the sum of value derived from the letters in the name provide an interrelation of symbolic information. These numbers can reveal a great deal about your character, your purpose in life, what motivates you, and what talents you have yet to exploit in life.
Like astrology, numerology can trace its roots back many centuries. The basic idea behind numerology is the numbers encoded into our unique individual birth names and birth date influences that who we are to some extent. Numerology is one of the world's oldest forms of metaphysical communication and interpretation. In ancient times, primitive tribes used numbers to communicate and trade ideas. Today numerology is an intriguing fusion of cabalism, religion and occult divination.
Nobody really knows the exact origins of numerology, but both Kabbalists and the ancient Egyptians practiced it many ages before the birth of Christ.
Numerologists maintain that every number expresses a cosmic vibration as well as a mathematical quantity. Both Pythogaras (530 BC) and Agrippa (1534 AD ) elaborated on this concept that all things in the universe are associated with a number. Both mathematicians surmised that numbers embody both a tangible (mathematical) and intangible (spiritual) quantity.
In the early twentieth century, the science of numerology was revived by a series of books published from 1911-1917 by L. Dow Balliett. In the 1930's the subject once again was expounded by the great mystic -Florence Campbell. These two writers developed most of the formulas that are used today to reduce names down to numbers to decipher future events.
Modern numerologists follow the same principles as established by Balliett and Campbell but have added psychological, behavioral and personality testing components to the interpretation of numerical equations.
