About the author
Hal A. Lingerman is the author of two Weiser Books titles on numerology and personal growth, Book of Numerology: Taking a Count of Your Life and Living Your Destiny. Both books treat numbers as a practical framework for self-understanding rather than simple fortune-telling, using birth dates and name numbers to examine relationships, career direction, and spiritual focus. Living Your Destiny draws explicitly on the Pythagorean tradition, setting out a ninefold spectrum of energies that readers are guided to identify and work with in daily life. Lingerman's approach treats numerology as a language for describing recurring life themes and cycles, aimed at readers already familiar with divinatory or self-help systems who want a numbers-based method they can apply to their own chart, relationships, and decisions rather than a historical or academic study of the subject.
