HISTORY OF NUMEROLOGY

European History

Pythagoras, the Greek mathematician who live from 569-470 B.C., is said by many to be the originator of much of what we call numerology today.
In the twentieth century, the old science seems to magically reappear in the form of a series of books published from 1911-1917 by L. Dow Balliett and it was helped along in the 30s by Florence Campbell, and within the next few decades a wealth of literature was available to the public. Indeed, if you look at the past 90 years, it would seem that the interest has moved very rapidly.

Roots in the Middle East

The actual origins of Eurpean numerology predate Pythagoras. The roots ly in the Middle East, the most popular being the very old Hebrew Kabbala. In the middle age the old Greek traditions were almost forgotten. The concept of numerology was reintroduced due to Hebrew and Arab sources.

Asian History

The Chinese philosophy and numerology is based on the over 3000 year old I Ging.

Indian Yogi and Tantra practices rely an the same numerological concepts.

Ancient American History

The culture and philosophy of ancient Maya, Aztec, Inca, etc. were strongly directed by numerological concepts.
