From the author of Feng Shui for Beginners comes the latest in Eastern divination techniques. You'll travel back in time to the very beginnings of numerology, when people thought gods lived in turtle shells and the discovery of a tortoise containing the markings of a perfect magic square was an event of national importance. Chinese Numerology teaches you the traditional system still practiced throughout the East, where Chinese astrology, feng shui and the I Ching also originated.
Chinese numerology is the quickest and easiest method of character analysis ever devised. Early into the book, you will be able to build a complete picture of a person as soon as you know his or her birthdate. By the end of the book, you will be able to erect and interpret numerology charts in three different ways. In fact, with a small amount of practice, you'll be able to do this mentally, without the necessity of writing anything down.
You will know more about yourself and the motivations of others, as well as when to move ahead and when to hold back in different areas of your life. You can predict the success you'll have! Get a glimpse of the future, achieve greater success, and, most importantly, gain a better understanding of yourself and those around you.

As much information as the author places in this book, it is only scratching the surface of what can be learned. There is plenty here to feed the curious; applying a few Western forms, and the Eastern styles to numerology. Through each stage of methods, the author offers interpretations of the numbers in that circumstance. Selecting such areas as using one's birthday in solar, and lunar calendars, to help see the path of one's life, and what cures one may apply to improve the weaker aspects, or accentuate the strengths. Deciphering Personal Year, Month, Day, and Hour akin to finding one's Life Path. The author shared a form that utilizes a pyramid to determine the quality of the 9 year life trends one encounters. Exploring the numerology of one's name, and finding compatibility charts, or how a name change affects one's life. One of the more valuable aspects of the book for me is learning about he Arrows on Influence contained in the grid form of numerology. The second half of the book is a full appendix of converting a birthdate in the 20th century solar calendar, into the Chinese lunar calendar date. Regrettably, there is no information for the 21st century- which would have been very helpful for anyone using the book today, and well into the future. Happily, this information can be obtained with a simple search online.
