How to Learn about Numerology, Psychics and Astrology

By Teddy Jacobs

Astrology is a practice dating back thousands of years, with origins in the cultures of the ancient Mediterranean peoples. The Babylonians were particularly noted for developing much of the astrological methodology and doctrine that was later mixed with Egyptian methods to form the foundation of the horoscopic astrology used by many psychic readers today. This horoscopic astrology is centered upon the influences of various celestial bodies in the lives of every man, woman, and child.

Among the common myths surrounding psychic readings based upon astrology is that people who seek information from a horoscope have first reached a point of desperation in their lives. Nothing more could be farther from the truth. For thousands of years and countless generations, rich and poor alike have sought to understand their lives and the world around them by seeking the counsel of learned psychics proficient in astrology. Many are the kings and nobles who dared not lift a hand in war without assurances that the cosmos were in alignment to approve their actions. Even the wife of one United States President took counsel with a noted astrologer - a decision that put her on the receiving end of many late-night jokes.

The various forms of face-to-face psychic readings all involve the belief that a person's energy - and thus their character and history (both past and present) - can be read, sometimes with the use of tools like tarot cards, runes, or customized astrological charts. While proponents of such readings hold fast to their belief that this information is in fact garnered via paranormal means, skeptics allege that it is more likely that the person being read provides subtle, unconscious signals to the psychic. These signals are believed to manifest in changes of expression, body language, and even verbal responses as the psychic makes one statement after another while observing the target individual's reaction to determine accuracy and thus hone the message even further.

It is difficult to provide precise assignations for each number, as different schools of thought hold a wide range of beliefs as to what each number means. However, most systems have at least a few things in common. For instance, the root numbers used in numerology are all essentially equal to one another in importance. In addition, every number has a wide range of both positive and negative traits.

For example, in one system the number 1 indicates the positive traits of an inventive, independent, courageous, strong leader. It also indicates the negative traits of aggressiveness, impulsiveness, egoism, and willfulness. A similar dichotomy is seen when evaluating the meanings of the other numbers. This can provide those who perform numerological psychic readings broad parameters for reading a person's character and future.

In that respect, astrological psychic readings differ from many other psychic attempts at fortune telling. It primarily allows you a greater perspective that enables you to better understand yourself and your potential. So the next time you pick up the newspaper or log onto the internet to see your daily horoscopes just keep in mind that its merely guidance rather than what will happen in your life and shouldnt be taken to the heart!
