Well, how does the numerology of your home address work and affect your life? Let’s understand this through some examples: Suppose your name is Rohan Sharma, and your residential address is 27/8 Patel Nagar, New Delhi.To calculate the numerological number of this address: First, let’s examine the street number, which is 27. Next, sum the digits: 2 + 7 = 9. Secondly, consider the house number which is 8. Last but not least, combine the digit sum of the street number (9) and the house number (8) – 9 + 8 = 17. If the final sum is a two-digit number, add those digits together – 1 + 7 = 8. Thus, the numerological number of the address 27/8 Patel Nagar is 8.
In numerology, every digit from 1 to 9 holds a special meaning and importance in the numerology chart. The number 8 is associated with wealth, business, money, and power. For a family living at this address, numerologists would posit that the number 8 can be auspicious in that it brings wealth, success in careers/businesses, and financial progress.
Numbers that are obtained from your home address through certain calculations are thought to play a huge role in the kind of energy and experience that one may encounter in life at that home.
Numerology and Vaastu for Home
Now, let’s look at this phenomenon a bit more deeply. Numerical values for houses have been in practice since the ancient Indian Vedic philosophies and cultures like India, China, Greece, and Egypt. This is based on the assumption that the environments we live in influence our lives and health through the frequencies they produce. In the Indian context, the principles of house numerology are based on the principles of Vaastu Shastra, which is the Vedic architectural science that deals with the construction of homes and buildings in geometric patterns and directions that will allow positive universal energy or ‘praana’ to flow.
In the ancient Indian knowledge system, various numbers are associated with ruling planets, elements, deities, and certain characteristics that can have an impact on human life in one way or another. For example, Number 1 is associated with the Sun – as for self, independence, and ambition. Number 2 is governed by the Moon – this means emotions, intuition and relationships. Number 3 is associated with Jupiter – which symbolises growth, enthusiasm, and creativity. So, depending on the number your home address is assigned to, practitioners are convinced that it can boost or suppress certain energies and aspects of your life. This is why many Indians take a lot of time and effort in choosing their house numbers, believing that the number will determine their fate.
Let’s examine how to arrive at the numerological number for your address in Indian house numerology systems. According to the Cardinal direction method, every direction, such as East, North and so on, is given a number, which is then added to the numerical value of the address. For instance, special numerical charts/codes such as the Kali Bhairavi numerology system can be used, where each alphabet name or street name is assigned a particular numeric value. Examining compounds that are built up from consecutive numbers in the address, such as 27, 35, etc., which are given new cumulative meanings. As per Vastu Shastra and beliefs, the North/East direction is considered more auspicious and preferable than other directions.
Comparing the numerical value of the address with other personal numbers such as Psychic/Life Path/Destiny numbers that can be obtained from the date of birth. Some also like certain ‘favourable’ ending numbers like 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 for addresses.
Vaastu Measures
If the numerological value of your home or office address is not very favourable, as per the principles, do not worry! Several Vaastu remedies and correctional measures are recommended.
Some objects, deities, symbols or geometrical yantra patterns related to the ruling number must be placed at the main door or inside the house. Paint the door/entrance areas in the colours corresponding to the aspired number. This can be done by writing auspicious alphabets and numbers or even fixing number plates with the lucky number on them. In commercial spaces, it is recommended to select merchandise brand names or logos that include those numbers.
We can perform invigorating rituals/pujas to invoke the ruling deities/ cosmic forces of the number at your doorstep. If possible, it may be necessary to change the street/house number entirely in extreme situations. Some Vastu practitioners recommend an energy recharge or shanti puja ceremony to be conducted at least once a year to reinforce the numerical strength of the house.
So, the next time you come across a house with a peculiar number on the plaque, you may want to think twice before dismissing it as a mere coincidence. It is probably not without reason, and there is certainly a numerological significance and cosmic calculation involved, as per the ancient Indian sciences.
