How to Understand Your Pinnacles in Numerology

Numerology pinnacles divide a lifetime into four distinct compartments. They're significant for special lessons, experiences and development during periods of time sometimes referred to as the springtime, summer, autumn and winter cycles of life. You can begin to understand the pinnacles by first calculating the numerology number that matches up with each pinnacle, then determining when each cycle begins and ends; it varies from one to eight years.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

1. Derive the numbers for the four pinnacles using the digits for the month, date and year of birth as follows.

2. Add together the digits for the month and the day of birth for Pinnacle One.

3. Take the sum of the day of birth plus the year of birth (using all four numbers for the year) for Pinnacle Two.

4. Add together the final numbers of Pinnacle One and Pinnacle Two for the number for Pinnacle Three. Pinnacle Four is the sum of the digits for the month and year of birth.

5. Calculate the time spans and beginnings and endings for the four pinnacle cycles using the following rules.

6. Take the Life Path number, which is the sum of the month, day and year of your birth.

7. Start with the number 36 as nine is significant in numerology, and 36 is nine times four.

8. Subtract the Life Path number from 36. This result gives the last year of Pinnacle One, and so tells you when Pinnacle Two begins. Pinnacles Two and Three both last nine years. Pinnacle Four begins the year after Pinnacle Three ends and lasts for the rest of your life.

9. Interpret the specific and detailed influence of each numerology pinnacle and its number by looking up this information in numerology books or online (see "Resources" below).
