Vedic Numerology
Ancient Indian Wisdom from the Vedas
What is Vedic Numerology?
Vedic numerology, also known as Indian numerology, originates from ancient Hindu scriptures and is closely connected to Jyotish (Vedic astrology). It links numbers to planetary energies and karmic influences.
This system focuses on two main numbers - the Mulank (root number from birth day) and Bhagyank (destiny number from full birth date) - to reveal life purpose and karmic lessons.
Vedic Origins
Vedic numerology comes from the Vedas, ancient Hindu scriptures dating back over 4,000 years. The system was developed by sages who observed the connection between numbers, planets, and human destiny.
Core Numbers
Mulank (Driver Number)
Your birth day number (1-9) reveals your personality, natural talents, and how you approach life. It's your driving force and represents your outer self.
Bhagyank (Conductor Number)
Calculated from your complete birth date, this number reveals your destiny, life purpose, and karmic path. It shows what you're meant to achieve.
Kua Number
Used in Feng Shui and Vedic practices, your Kua number determines your favorable directions, colors, and elements for prosperity and well-being.
Numbers and Planets
In Vedic numerology, each number 1-9 is ruled by a planet (Graha) that influences its characteristics:
Nakshatra System
Vedic astrology divides the zodiac into 27 Nakshatras (lunar mansions), each with specific characteristics, ruling planets, and lucky numbers. Your birth Nakshatra provides deeper insight into your nature and destiny.
Your Nakshatra is determined by the Moon's position at your exact birth time.
Vedic Remedies
Vedic numerology offers remedies (Upaya) to balance challenging numbers:
- Wearing specific gemstones to strengthen planetary influences
- Chanting mantras associated with your ruling planets
- Fasting on days ruled by beneficial planets
- Charitable activities aligned with planetary energies
Calculation Example
Birthdate: 25th August 1995
Mulank: 25 โ 2+5 = 7 (Ketu - spiritual seeker)
Bhagyank: 25+8+1995 = 2028 โ 2+0+2+8 = 12 โ 1+2 = 3 (Jupiter)
This person has spiritual depth (7) with a destiny for growth and teaching (3)
