This book is perfect for anyone who has just been bitten by the Numerology bug.

Great detail and easy to understand!

I am halfway through this book and found it so informative that I jumped right on amazon to purchase a few for family members. I recently developed an interest in numberology and symbolism and bought this book as a beginner read to find out a little more about the subject. I was not disappointed! The book gives you the right tools/knowledge to learn about your inner self and the profound impact (birthdate/year, persoal year numbers, ruling numbers) numbers have on your life. I whole heartedly recommend this book to ANYONE who is even slightly interested in the subject.

This a VERY good book, with topics you won`t find in no other Numerology book, like Chapter 6, "The Arrows of Individuality", or Chapter 12, "The Astrology / Numerology connection". Unfortunately the author has passed away. I also recommend to read the chapter 16, "Reincarnation, Do We Have a Choice?"

I have had previous versions of this updated book and David Phillips makes numerology very easy to understand and work out. I have bought two extra copies of this book for friends. I enjoyed it.

This book was half good half bad.

THE GOOD: It explained very well the methodology and layout used to do the calculations. The parts up to and through "arrows" is very detailed and something that you won't find presented in most modern texts. Explainations up to that point are also pretty good and thorough.

THE BAD: It was very bad when it got to occupations. VERY! For example Social Work for an 11 is just wrong and a huge underuse of energy. More correctly is the fact that an 11 is best in a social leadership role. Social Working is not leading. LOL Another example is for an 8 as an actor. Most of the people he lists are actors but not very good ones, instead they are "popular" in their jobs due to "something" but not necessarily proficiency of the craft. LOL These are just two example where he is generally correct but specifically wrong.

I specifically don't use numerology to personally assess because it fails to hone in the way that he tries to hone it in.

After the "arrows" chapter the author gets less and less detailed and basically writes about a paragraph of fluff about each heading. He even mentions the idea of twins but seems to fail to understand or explain that of course if they have different names that have different expressions. So in numerology twins wouldn't theoretically be difficult to distinguish whereas in astrology if you don't know the correct methodologies you could indeed have great difficulty.

Overall not a coaster but readers need to be VERY CAREFUL not to take the specific vocational advice too seriously. That was the most harmful part of the book, otherwise it was generally informative.

I found the imformation in this book to be very interesting and easy to follow. if you are thinking on trying out numerology for the first time or you have tried numerology before and would like to look into someone elses system of "weaving numbers" I would recommend this book to you.

Play with the numbers in this book. It is fun, it is simple to follow and if you are really honest with yourself you will be surprised at how characteristically correct it is.

I absolutely loved this book and it has become somewhat of my "bible" in interacting with other people. I read the book in two days and was just amazed with the information it provided. I really didn't know much about numerology before and I am just amazed at how accurate the numbers described myself and those around me. I found it pretty interesting that my first peak year is this year. Is it just coincidence that I found this book at this time? I honestly do not think so. This book explains that each number has a vibration and that we are born on days that fit our karma. If you pick up this book, be prepared to understand yourself and the people around you on a much deeper level!
