Sacred Synergy of Your Birthdate & Ayurveda
A Path to Health Through Linking Your Birth Number and Ayurvedic Wisdom : The Occult Connection Between Numerology and Ayurveda
By Jyotsnaa G Bansal
Each human is born on a specific date, marking their unique entry into the world. This date is more than just a calendar moment; in numerology, it holds a powerful connection to who we are. Numerology, through our birth numbers, links us to the energies of planets that influence our personalities, strengths and life paths.
Each birth number, from 1 to 9, connects with a unique planet, giving us insights about our natural traits and possible health tendencies that shape our everyday experiences. When we combine these insights with Ayurveda’s energy-balancing doshas—Vata, Pitta and Kapha— we can create simple routines & habits that support health and well-being.
Knowing our birth number helps us understand what our bodies and minds need. Each birth number links to a planet and a specific dosha—Vata, Pitta, or Kapha.
