　　In ancient times, it was quite common to believe in the magical power of numbers. It was believed some numbers could inform someone of the future or show the hidden side of a person's personality. Numerology, the art of reading the power in numbers, was often practiced in Jewish tradition and among Greek mathematicians. Today, many of those who still practise numerology use the Hebrew system which gives each letter the alphabet one of the number 1 through 8.

　　Here is an example of how the Hebrew system of numerology works. In order to find the number related to a person's name, first assign(分派) the correct number to each letter of the name. The following chart can be used to see the number related to a person's name:

　　For a name like John, the following numbers are used: J＝1, O＝7, H＝5 end N＝5. Add these numbers together. The total is 18. Because this number is larger than 9, add the two digits (数字) so that, 1+8＝9. Nine is the number which refers to the name John.

　　Each number from 1 to 9 shows a different type of personality. One is the number of a leader, a person who will achieve many things. Two a person who is gentle and kind, but this is also a person who does not have clear goals. Three stands for a social person who is intelligent(有才智的) and creative. A person whose name equals four is a dependable, organized, and logical person. Five is the number for a person who is clever but impatient. Six is a“happy”number. This type of person is peaceful, sincere, and has a well - balanced life. Seven is the number for a person who prefers to be alone. This kind of person is a thinker. Eight shows a person who will have money. This kind of person also think only of himself or herself. Nine is the number of a genius or spiritual leader.
