Chaldean Numerology is based on the Chaldean Alphabet which assigns only “eight” root numbers (numerical values) to the sound-syllables (letters) of their alphabet. The Number “9” was considered to be sacred in and of itself. It was sacred not only because it was symbolic of the highest level of spiritual attainment, but also because it’s level of creative energy was higher than all numbers. Therefore the Number “9” could never be assigned to represent a single “letter” (sound-syllables). As a consequence, the Number 9 is not included in the number assignment of the letters (sound-syllables) of the Chaldean Alphabet.
