Types & Traits ​
In the 1930s, some research numerologists, led by Dr. Juno Jordan, claimed that man is fourfold, with a body, brain, heart, and spirit. They discovered that letters and their corresponding num-bers can be grouped into four categories based on those “planes of expression,” as Dr. Jordan called them: physical, mental, emotional, and intuitive.
Physical Letters ​
Physical letters(4 and 5 number values) represent the body and are ruled by instinct. Concerned with the tangible and real, common sense is the keyword associated with the physical. The number of the worker and builder, 4 is economical and practical. The 5 value is less practical and suggests curiosity and security.
Mental Letters ​
Mental letters (1 and 8 number values) represent positive states of mind, analysis, reasoning, facts, executive ability, and leadership qualities. Determination is the keyword associated with the mental. These letters also suggest only accepting things that are obvious and can be proved. On the mental plane, 1 is the number of imagination and strong will. The 8 value is about control of the mind via practicality and logical reasoning.
Emotional Letters ​
Emotional letters (2, 3, and 6 number values) represent the heart of man. Feeling is the key-word associated with the emotional—facts give way to inspiration, imagination, and vision. The letters aren’t based on practical or logical foundations, but rather deal with sentiments over rea-son. They also represent feelings and imagination, as well as sympathetic and sensitive responses to human emotion. Sensitive to timing, 2 is the number of ideas and sharing love with others. The 3 value centers around imagination in relation to emotion, while 6 is the number of truth, beauty, and harmony.
Intuitive Letters ​
Intuitive letters (7 and 9 number values) represent the spiritual part of mankind that uses intuition to delve into the unknown and uses the “inner guidance” to reach goals. Metaphysical is the keyword associated with the intuitive. Dealing with technical facts, 7 is about analysis and research. Deeply sensitive and imaginative, 9 works on a higher plane to impress the universe.
Think of the four categories as four levels of consciousness; the Type and Traits Chart delves deeper into those levels and shows how you are unique from others, looks at how you view life, and provides insight into your character. The Type and Traits Chart also looks at what talents and skills you were born with and what kind of work you might enjoy or be successful doing

If you have nine emotional letters in your name, you enjoy receiving attention from others and may get pouty when you don’t receive the attention you crave
Number of Intuitive letters ​
If you have no intuitive letters in your name, you’re apt to lack interest in world affairs and prefer to see things in black and white rather than trusting impres-sions. Those who have one intuitive letter are inspired—solutions and ideas come to you quickly. If you have two intuitive letters in your name, you may be a bit extreme in your thinking but are sensitive to the feelings of others. Three intuitive letters indicate you may get psychic hunches, have the ability to inspire others, and are good with words. If you have four intuitive letters, you tend to enjoy the ceremonies connected with religion or tradition and like facts more than fiction. Those with five intuitive letters can think outside the box, are curious, and like to know “why.” If you have six intuitive letters in your name, you have high ideals and could succeed as a minister or in a creative profession. Those with seven intuitive letters are perfectionists and sometimes want to mold others the way they think they should be. If you have eight intuitive letters in your name, you have intuitive instincts and can excel as a researcher or historian. It is not only unlikely, but almost impossible, to have nine intuitive letters in your name; however, if you’re the one in a million who happens to have nine intuitive letters, you’re a very unique person. You dwell in the abstract, are highly impressionable, and are a dreamer rather than a doer.
