With Primality, you now have the ability to contemplate a single number in order to elicit Numerological effects based upon its nature.

The known, stable numbers that one can contemplate are: Yuef, 1, the number of self. Ef'tig, 2, the number of pairs. Rafic, 3, the number of place. Jherza, 5, the physical number. Yi, 7, the number of mystery. Jhako, 11, the number of balance. Lgakt, 13, the number of uncertainty.

Each of these numbers has its own sphere of influence which can be learned about by reading through AB NUMEROLOGY <number>. You will not be able to contemplate multiple numbers at first, but as you learn more you will begin to understand the process behind utilizing them.

You can check NUMBERS any time to remind yourself of what numbers you are currently contemplating.
