The history of chinese numerology!
Chinese numerology is considered to be one of the earliest forms of numerology.
The origins of Chinese numerology date back 4000 years ago.
A famous tale is that the first of the five mythical emperors of China, Wu of Hsai, was working on the banks of the Yellow River trying to find a method to prevent the floods.
It was during the course of this work that Wu found a tortoise shell, which at the time was considered to be a very good omen.
This shell, however, was extremely rare, unique and special because it had fascinating markings on it: a magic 3x3 square.

This square later became known as the 'Lo Shu Grid'.
The 'Lo Shu Grid' is particularly remarkable because every row, column and diagonal on the grid add up to the number '15'.
Chinese numerology is based on mystical traditions, including the I-Ching.
The common premise is that certain numbers are associated with 'good' or 'bad'.
The element that makes a number 'good' or 'bad' is the punning and word play possible in this many-tone language.
Over time chinese numerology evolved into three different systems that are being used today.
There is the Western version of chinese numerology, the traditional chinese numerology and the Ki system.
The following presents an introduction to some basic concepts used in chinese numerology.

Six basic concepts in chinese numerology!!
YANG NUMBERS:
Examples of a 'yang number' are the 'odd numbers': 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, etc.
YIN NUMBERS:
Examples of a 'yin number' are the 'even numbers': 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, etc.
LUCKY NUMBERS:
A 'lucky number' is a number which is based on chinese words that sound similar to other Chinese words.
The numbers '6', '8', and '9'' are believed to have auspicious meanings because their names sound similar to words that have positive meanings.
For example: Number '8' is a lucky number because it sounds like the 'prosperous' (in Cantonese language).
UNLUCKY NUMBERS:
Number '4' and number '13' are an 'unlucky number' according to the principles of Chinese numerology. The number '13' adds up to '4'.
The number '4' sounds like the word 'death' (in Cantonese languge). One should notice here that you do not have to worry much about the number '4' if the pronunciation of this number in your language does not sound similar to the word 'death'.
FENG SHUI HOUSE NUMBERS:
The chinese numerology is based on homophone principles. Homophone refers to having the same sound but different meanings.
Therefore, according the Feng Shui, words with similar sounds make a number lucky or unlucky.
KUA NUMBERS:
The calculation of the 'Kua number' is based on the year of birth (the last 2 numbers), but is different for men and women:
- For men: add the last two digits until you get a single number. Then deduct this single number from 10. For example: a man who is born in 2008 has the 'Kua number': 2 (10 - (0+8) = 2).
- For women: add the last two digits until you get a single number. Then add this single number to 5. For example: a woman who is born in 2008 has the 'Kua number': 4 (= (0+8) + 5 = 13: 1+3=4).
