What is the difference between the Pythagorean Sequence and Numerology?

There are variations in the algorithms, calculations, and interpretations of the system.

If you're a student of Numerology, you probably already know this: "Numerology" is a catch-all term that is used for many different schools and systems of knowledge. There is Chaldean Numerology, Hebrew Numerology, Chinese Numerology, and Pythagorean Numerology. Each have different formulas, different interpretations for the numbers, and different approaches to measuring everything from life cycles to personality. It is very common for these systems to disagree on the formulas and results.

You may be surprised to know that, even under the umbrella of "Pythagorean Numerology", there are multiple disagreements on how to calculate certain areas of a life map and how each result should be interpreted. One such disagreement is known as "January 1st Numerology" vs "Birthday-to-Birthday Numerology". They are two different schools with starkly different approaches to the interpretations and analysis.

All of this is to say: if you're confused by why the results in your Teledipity profile differ from those of other famous Numerologists or Numerology websites, that is because there are dozens of different schools of "Pythagorean Numerology" with dozens of different agreements about calculations and interpretations, though they all share the same roots.

Numerology, in the end, is a divine language, not arithmetic or a concrete science, and you should treat it as such. We are most aligned with "January 1" numerologists, but over 15 years of study and analysis, we've also developed our own unique approach and use of the formulas.

Each individual who learns these codes leaves their own indelible mark on them, and the important question is not "WHO IS RIGHT" but “WHOSE INTERPRETATIONS ARE HITTING THE MARK AND HELPING ME THE MOST?".

If you're an aspiring student of this system, you'll quickly find that most books disagree on multiple formulas and interpretations, and that you'll have to think critically and develop your own approach.
