The study of numbers and their possible meanings is
referred to as numerology. There are many different
techniques. We used the method of digit summing.
It’s exactly what it sounds like. Generally, you’d
take the date of birth and add each digit separately,
once you have your sum, if it’s a double digit, you’d
add those two digits until you get a single number.
Each number is assigned a meaning. The following are
the most common or the definitions most widely
accepted...generally. These are taken from wikipedia.

For the Chinese, a number like 89 would be a very lucky number as
it translates to something like “you’ll have a lasting fortune”
or “you’ll prosper for a long time”.
it translates to something like “you’ll have a lasting fortune”
or “you’ll prosper for a long time”.
So let’s use, for example, Hermione. Hermione’s birthday is
19 September 1979.
19+9+1979 = 2007 = 2+7 = 9 = Completion (Long in time)
There is also a method of designating numbers to each letter of
the alphabet, then can you digit sum from those values.
19 September 1979.
19+9+1979 = 2007 = 2+7 = 9 = Completion (Long in time)
There is also a method of designating numbers to each letter of
the alphabet, then can you digit sum from those values.

So, for example:
|
| Hermione Granger |
Hermione = 87 = 8+7 = 15 = 1+5 = 6 = Reaction(Smooth path)
Granger = 70 = 7 = Thought (Together)
To be thorough, you can add in the middle name:
Granger = 70 = 7 = Thought (Together)
To be thorough, you can add in the middle name:
|
Jane = 30 = 3 = Communication (Live)
In total: 6+7+3 = 16 = 7 = Thought (Together)
In total: 6+7+3 = 16 = 7 = Thought (Together)
| Arithmancy: Hermione |
Full Name Digit Sum: 7 = Thought (Together)
Birth Year Digit Sum: 9 = Completion (Long in Time)
Birth Year Digit Sum: 9 = Completion (Long in Time)
| 19 September 1979 19+9+1979 = 2007 = 9 Completion (Long in Time) |

Lucky
6 – Flowing, Smooth; “everything goes smoothly”
Considered one of the luckiest numbers
8 – Fortune or Prosperity
9 – Longlasting, enduring, long-term
Unlucky
4 – It’s pronunciation in Chinese, Korean, and Japanese sounds
similar to the words for death in each language. It is
considered the unluckiest numbers.
14 – In Cantonese, the word is “sap sei,” which sounds like
“sat sei.” Sat sei translates into “certainly die.”
The trepidation towards, and subsequent aversion of, the number
14 in Eastern cultures is very similar to the Western idea of 13
being a bad sign. The fear of the number 14 is called
Tetraphobia.
The fear is so strong in that part of the world that 4 and all
other numbers containing it are avoided, especially in the
presence of sick or dying people.
The 4th, 14th, 24th, etc. floors are usually skipped in hotels,
hospitals, offices. In restaurants, or at social gathering such
as weddings, the 4th table is passed over.
