Numerology is nothing less than a tool which aids us towards psychological self awareness.
A little remembered music teacher, living in Atlanta City, came to some startling conclusions. In her studies of harmony, Mrs L. Dow Balliett came to realize that the letter name applied to each note had the same vibratory qualities as the note itself. It was this simple observation, she later claimed, which led to her interest in the application of numerical science. The handful of books which she published on the subject essentially defined the modern method of relating names and numbers to acquire insight to the character and personality of the individual. It should be well noted, that no such system existed before the time of Mrs L. Dow Balliet. Any individual, or organization, claiming otherwise is at best misinformed, and at worst deliberately misleading. Around the turn of the century (from 1800 to 1900 A.D.) Mrs. L. Dow Balliett combined Pythagoras' work with Biblical reference.[1]
Her ideas could easily have been quickly forgotten, but for the efforts of one of her students.
