Today, numerology is often associated with the occult, alongside astrology and similar divinatory arts.
Numerology is any of many system, traditions or beliefs in a mystical or esoteric relationship between numbers and physical objects or living things. Numerology and numerological divination were popular among early mathematicians, such as Pythagoras but are no longer considered part of mathematics and are regarded as psedumathematics by most modern scientists. This is similar to the historical development of astronomy out of astrology, and chemistry from alchemy.
About Chaldean method:
Numerologists often reduce a number or word by a process known as digit summing, then reach conclusions based on the single digit that is produced. Digit summing, as the name implies, involves taking the sum of all of the digits in a number, and repeating the process as necessary until a single-digit answer is produced. For a word, the values corresponding to each letter's place in the alphabet (A-Z) are summed. Examples:
▪ Hello → 5 + 5 + 3 + 3 + 7 = 23 → 2 + 3 = 5
