'''Numerology''' (known before the 20th century as ''arithmancy'') is the belief in a mystical relationship between a number and one or more coinciding events. It is also the study of the numerical value, via an alphanumeric system, of the letters in words and names. When numerology is applied to a person's name, it is a form of onomancy. It is often associated with [[astrology]] and [[divination]]. | '''Numerology''' (known before the 20th century as ''arithmancy'') is the belief in a mystical relationship between a number and one or more coinciding events.
