5.0 out of 5 stars For the Serious Seeker, October 15, 2000

By	Debbie Comings (Knoxville, TN USA) - See all my reviews

For 6 or 7 years, I have been a student of numerology and have studied many books and authors' ideas, styles, etc. "Behind Numerology", as well as her subsequent book, "Numerology and the English Cabalah", have elevated my study and insight to a whole new level. Both books are a must for the serious seeker and student. This author has done tremendous research and supports modern numerology from its ancient roots. She provides the most comprehensive explanations, meanings, and coverage of the numbers and the alphabet/letters that I have ever seen. Further, she details the evolution of the ancient alphabet from the Phoenician and Hebrew times to present day, as well as introducing linkages with gematria, temurah & notariqn; the Tree of Sephiroth; and the Tarot. There are many examples and interpretations; charts; and reference tables. Compound, master, and mystic numbers are covered as well as a host of other information. Even after years of study, once I read both of her books, I now feel that I have only just begun....there is so much depth to this subject if one is so inclined to pursue it. Both books also provide an enormous amount of reference to supporting resource material. Obviously, I highly recommend these books for advanced study. I believe these books are both currently out-of-print, but they can be found through the the various resources offered online and are well worth the effort.
