PUBLIC DATES, PUBLIC ARITHMETIC
Charts of the dead
The same arithmetic, run on birth dates that are a matter of public record. Every step is shown so you can check it — which is the only reason these pages are worth anything.
Only people who have died are listed. The readings on this site are written in the second person and are not always kind; publishing them about a named living person would be a different thing entirely.

This is what the system produces from a date. It is not a claim about the person: nobody here sat for a reading, and a birthday is not evidence of a character. What the numbers are said to mean is a tradition, and it is described on its own pages rather than asserted about someone who cannot answer.
What any of it is said to mean is on the eleven ruling numbers and the fifteen arrows.
You have read about it. Now have it read.
None of this is worth much in the abstract. Give the teacher the day you were born and he will tell you which of these you actually carry.
