Introduction to Vedic Numerology
Have you ever noticed that you keep seeing the same numbers on clocks, license plates, or receipts? Or perhaps you feel a strong connection to a specific number? In the ancient science of Vedic Numerology (Ank Jyotish), numbers are not just mathematical symbols; they are cosmic vibrations that influence our personality, career, and relationships.
Everything in the universe vibrates at a certain frequency, and numbers are the code to understand these frequencies. By analyzing your date of birth, you can unlock hidden aspects of your character and potential.
The Two Pillars: Mulank and Bhagyank
In Vedic Numerology, your life is primarily governed by two major numbers derived from your date of birth.
1. Mulank (Psychic Number)
This is calculated from the day of the month you were born. It represents your basic nature, personality, and how you view yourself. It is most active between the ages of 0 to 35.
- How to Calculate: If you were born on the 14th of any month, your Mulank is 1 + 4 = 5.
- Significance: It defines your immediate reactions, your likes and dislikes, and your compatibility with friends.
2. Bhagyank (Destiny Number)
This is calculated from your full date of birth (Date + Month + Year). It represents your destiny, your life path, and the challenges you will face. It becomes more prominent after the age of 35.
- How to Calculate: If born on 14-05-1990:
- Add Date: 1+4 = 5
- Add Month: 0+5 = 5
- Add Year: 1+9+9+0 = 19 -> 1+9 = 10 -> 1+0 = 1
- Total: 5 + 5 + 1 = 11 -> 1+1 = 2.
- So, Bhagyank is 2.
