NUMBERS AND MYTHOLOGY
In this book we are working with numbers as agents of the divine, mysterious
energy of the cosmos—not as agents of the planets alone. Another tool that
can help the numerologist explain the characteristics of numbers is the
knowledge that can be derived from mythological stories. For persons
practicing numerology in the West, these stories must come from Western
mythology, although knowledge of stories from the Hindu tradition can
provide additional insight. This mythological information is not included in
the present volume, but it deserves consideration as a separate book.
Numbers of Exaltation
The number of exaltation refers to single numbers (psychic, destiny, or name)
that are arrived at by a particular combination of double numbers. For
example, those people whose single number 1 comes from 28 will have a
special force behind them and will be more successful in life than other 1s.
The number 1 can be the result of 1, 10, 19, 28, 37, 46, 55, 64, 73, 82, or 91.
But a 1 that comes specifically from 28 is called exalted.
The same is true for 2 resulting from 29, 3 from 12, 4 from 31, 5 from 23
and 32, 6 from 24 and 33, 7 from 25 and 34, 8 from 26 and 35, and 9 from 27
and 36—these single numbers are all exalted. In determining the number of
exaltation, we have to see the double numbers as the conjunction of two
planets. The effect of this conjunction guides the numerologist to determine
which numerical combinations create a more dynamic effect. Their effect on
vata, pitta, kapha (Tridoshas) shows the mental and physical makeup of the
native having a double number. If the conjunction creates a balanced
temperament it is called exalted.
The Relationships and Characteristics of Numbers table summarizes the
numbers of exaltation for each of the nine single numbers (see pages 188-
193). This table should be consulted on two occasions: before the
numerologist forms his opinion about any person or couple and before a
student of numerology starts a new job or a new enterprise. The chapter on
Compound Numbers also describes the characteristics of these numbers of
exaltation.
