chaldean numerology
<p>
Chaldean is believed to be the oldest of the systems of numerology. The use of numbers for predictive purposes were used by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaldea">Chaldeans</a>, Phoenicians, Hindus, Chinese, Hebrews, and early Christians.
The Chaldean System converts letters to numbers using numbers 1 to 8. Most of the symbology employed followed the progression of numbers, with Ones signifying a beginning or genesis, the higher numbers representing the progress through life, and Eights signifying completion.
The Chaldean System is sometimes called Mystic Numerology vs. the more commonly used <a href="http://www.crystalinks.com/numerologypyth.html">Pythagorean System.</a></p>
