How the Chaldean method works

Common questions
Quick answers for readers and search engines alike.
What’s the difference between Chaldean and Pythagorean numerology?+
Pythagorean numerology assigns letters values 1–9 in simple alphabetical order. The Chaldean system assigns values 1–8 based on the vibration traditionally linked to each sound, reserves 9 as sacred, and places heavy emphasis on the two-digit “compound” number behind your root. Many practitioners consider Chaldean the older and more intricate of the two.
Should I use my full name or the name I go by?+
Traditionally, the name you are most widely known and addressed by is analysed, because that is the name carrying the most everyday vibration. Many people calculate both their full birth name and their common name to compare them.
What is a compound number?+
Before a name is reduced to a single root digit, it produces a two-digit total — the compound number. In Chaldean tradition each compound number carries its own distinct meaning, which is why two names sharing the same root can still be read quite differently.
Can I use this for a business or brand name?+
Yes. The same method applies to business names, brands and domains. In practice, founders often compare a business name’s number against their own to explore alignment — a dedicated tool for that is on the Numbers Compass roadmap.
