Astro Shikha Sharma - Spiritual Guidance

Numerology is the belief in an occult, divine or mystical relationship between a number and one or more coinciding events. It is also the study of the numerical value, via an alphanumeric system, of the letters in words and names. When numerology is applied to a person's name, it is a form of onomancy. It is often associated with astrology and other divinatory arts.  

At its core, numerology involves assigning meaning to numbers, typically using a person’s birthdate or name. Some of the most common forms of numerology are:

1. Life Path Number: Derived from a person's birthdate, this number is said to reveal one's purpose in life and key traits.
    
2. Expression Number: Calculated from the full birth name, this number is thought to reflect one's natural talents and abilities.
    
3. Soul Urge Number: Derived from the vowels in a person's name, it is said to reveal inner desires and motivations.
    
4. Personality Number: Based on the consonants of a person's name, this number is thought to reflect outward personality traits.
    
5. Destiny Number: Similar to the Life Path Number, it’s believed to indicate a person’s overall life journey.
