Unlike Pythagorean numerology — which assigns letters in strict alphabetical order — the Chaldean system measures the true phonetic sound frequency of each letter. It is the original numerological psychology.
The Chaldeans were an ancient people who occupied southern Babylonia (modern Iraq) from around 900 BCE. Their mastery of astrology, mathematics, and esoteric arts gave rise to what many consider the world's most accurate and psychologically nuanced numerological system.
Where Pythagorean numerology reduces everything to single digits (1–9), Chaldean numerology places equal — sometimes greater — emphasis on compound (two-digit) numbers. The compound number reveals the deeper karmic story behind your root vibration. A name totalling 19 is very different energetically from one totalling 28, even though both reduce to 1.
The system uses numbers 1–8 for letter assignments, with 9 treated as sacred — the number of divine completion, kept separate from ordinary alphabetic associations. This makes Chaldean analysis more complex to master, but correspondingly richer and more precise.
At NumericalPsychology.com, we integrate Chaldean numerology with modern psychological frameworks — combining ancient Babylonian wisdom with the insights of NLP, cognitive science, and behavioral psychology for a truly holistic understanding of the self. Explore the foundations in our article on Pythagoras and the Hidden Dimensions of Reality.
For those interested in the philosophical and mathematical underpinnings of numerological systems, our deep-dive article on Pythagoreanism: The Mystical Union of Numbers, Philosophy, and the Cosmos provides essential context.
Values are assigned by the vibratory resonance of each letter's sound, ensuring deeper psychological alignment with your actual spoken identity — not just its written position in the alphabet.
Preserved for millennia through an oral tradition from master to disciple, Chaldean numerology traces back to ancient clay tablets at least 2,500 years old. Cheiro — arguably history's most famous numerologist — used this system to predict global events.
While other systems collapse everything to a single digit, Chaldean numerology reads the compound number first — revealing the specific karmic flavour of your vibration. A 19 and a 28 are both "1," but carry entirely different life narratives.
Each compound number (10–52+) carries a distinct archetypal character — a karmic narrative that shapes the soul's experience far beyond what the root number alone can reveal. Learn more about numerical archetypes in our article on The Psychology of Numbers.
