The classical reading

18 reduces to 9, Mars's number, which the classical table names Rayed Moon Dropping Blood. Inside it 1 is Sun and 8 is Saturn, with Mars behind the pair as the reduced digit. On the surface a 9 name behaves as any 9 does: scale, force and manpower, with a short fuse on control. Practitioners read it as a total to keep off a business name; it is the brand-killer of the table, because the Sun and Saturn inside it oppose each other. Move a name off it by the smallest edit that leaves it, toward 27, 45, the good totals on 9.

Reading the compound and the digit together

  1. The compound is read before the digit is, and the digit is read as character rather than fate.
  2. Two names on the same digit differ by compound; 23 is not 41 and 18 is not 27.
  3. A compound is a planetary pairing: 19 is the Sun with Mars, 18 the Sun with Saturn in mutual enmity.
  4. 13, 14, 16 and 19 are the karmic totals; they are read unreduced.
  5. The nearest good compound beats the ideal one: a one-letter edit to 37 is worth more than a rebrand to 23, because the goodwill of the old name is kept.
