Malefic numbers can appear in the personal chart either as a Soul number, Destiny Number, Personality Number, or Life Path Number. These numbers are considered to have karmic baggage behind them. The malefic numbers are 14, 16, and 19. Why are they so bad? When they appear in your chart, it signals that a power you possessed has been misused and abused in the past.

Robert is a young boy who suffers from mathematical anxiety due to his boredom in school. His mother is Mrs. Wilson. He also experiences recurring dreams—including falling down an endless slide or being eaten by a giant fish—but is interrupted from this sleep habit one night by a small devil creature who introduces himself as the Number Devil. Although there are many Number Devils (from Number Heaven), Robert only knows him as the Number Devil before learning of his actual name, Teplotaxl, later in the story.

Scholars argue that the beast cannot refer to Nero because this prophecy was written 30 years after his death. However, some Greek astrologers believe that Nero will be resurrected and reclaim his power. a b Pakenham, Michael (11 October 1998). "Does your head need exercise? Here's just the book for you".

In Christianity, 666 is referred to in (most manuscripts of) chapter 13 of the Book of Revelation of the New Testament as the " number of the beast." [1] [2] [3] In mathematics [ edit ]Over the course of twelve dreams, the Number Devil teaches Robert mathematical principles. On the first night, the Number Devil appears to Robert in an oversized world and introduces the number one. The next night, the Number Devil emerges in a forest of trees shaped like "ones" and explains the necessity of the number zero, negative numbers, and introduces hopping, a fictional term to describe exponentiation. On the third night, the Number Devil brings Robert to a cave and reveals how prima-donna numbers ( prime numbers) can only be divided by themselves and one without a remainder. Later, on the fourth night, the Number Devil teaches Robert about rutabagas, another fictional term to depict square roots, at a beach. The association of 666 with evil originates from a passage in the Book of Revelations in the New Testament of the Bible. As it reads in the King James Version (13:18): All dwelling earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
