Webster, Richard. Numerology Magic. St. Paul, Minnesota: Llewellyn Publications. 1998. ISBN: 1-56718-813-3. Webster approaches numerology from a different angle—he shows you how to construct your natal numerological chart in a magic square format, called a ‘yantra’, which you can carry around with you for good luck, like a sort of talisman. Out of the numerology books I’ve read, Webster was the first numerologist who made me aware of the importance of double-checking the math, when the subject’s birth number appears to be a 2 or a 4.
Webster also touches on the subject of ‘arrows’, derived from the natal numerological square/yantra, which yield further insights into the subject’s character. You can have more than one ‘arrow’ in your yantra. I have one, and I think it’s accurate about me. Webster also has a bibliography and suggested reading section at the end of the book, for those interested in delving deeper into the subjects he mentions in his book.
Angeli, Amie. The Numbers in Our Lives: A Course in ACP Numerology. Westport, Conn: AngeLines Publishing, 1998. ISBN: 1-891333-00-3. Amie Angeli forges her own trail in numerology, even more than Nick Newmont. Her alpha-numeric chart is different from either the commonly-used Pythagorean chart or the older, Chaldean chart; she assigns letters a numerical value from 1 to 7. The front cover of her book declares her “The World’s Foremost Authority on Numerology” and on page 9 she says ACP Numerology is basically ancient Atlantean numerology, updated for current times. Setting aside these eyebrow-raising declarations, Angeli is the one numerologist I’ve come across who’s gone into depth about the significance of other important numbers in a person’s life, such as I.D. numbers, membership numbers, account numbers, social security numbers, driver’s license numbers, license plate numbers and what role these numbers play in a person’s life. For that alone, I think the book is worth it’s price.
One other really useful thing I’ve gotten out of this book is, Angeli assigns certain colors to certain numbers, and she encourages the reader to either wear the color associated with their personal day number, eat foods in that color, or at least have the color somewhere in their environment. This one tip has taken the guesswork for me out of the eternal ‘what do I wear today?’ question. She also makes recommendations for what activities go best with the energy of the day, for both waxing- and waning-moon days.
