Why Base-12
Why Base-12?
Traditional Western Numerology and Pythagorean Numerology use the base-10 (decimal) system that we're all familiar with to calculate your numbers.
Base-12 Numerology uses the duodecimal system to uncover your higher level vibrations, the esoteric and spiritually elevated ones, that drive your Life Choices. Base-12 exposes the awesome energies that influence how you move along your Life Journey (Life Path). The two extra digits of the Base-12 sequence add rich layers of dimensionality to your vibrations.
Base-12 does not replace Base-10. Rather, it complements the decimal system in more sensitive ways. The duodecimal (Base-12) number sequence adds two more digits to numerology tabulations (see image above); and those two digits allow for the expanded expression of higher resonance and frequency.
The decimal system used in Pythagorean and traditional Western numerology simplifies to a single digit:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 (with the exception of Master numbers 11, 22, 33, 44, etc).
The duodecimal (Base-12) system similarly simplifies to a single digit, but it has two additional single digits, which appear as:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B
Common
There are multiple reasons why Base-12 seems like a logical, and more elevated, tabulation system. It surrounds us every day; and in some ways it’s so common and ubiquitous that we hardly notice it. Base-12 encompasses us, and it may be a forgotten system.
It's Found
- To Be Mathematically Versatile
- In Nature
- In Time and Astrology
- To Have Religious Significance
- In Ancient Wisdom, Symbolism
- In Modern Measurements
- In Music
The repetition of the 12 can be found in many other sectors as well; but as you can see, this is enough to get us started. From music, to science, to religion, to metaphysics, 12 is at the core of how we measure, interpret, and understand this plane of existence.
A & B
The two additional digits of Base-12 (A & B) allow for more nuanced revelation and explanation; and they also show how raising your vibrations to another chromatic octave (to a higher level) affect you.
In traditional numerology, 9 is the highest single digit because the 10 represents starting over at the next elevated level (raising to the next octave and starting again). Thus, 9 symbolizes completion of the current octave.
In Base-12 numerology, B (with the numerical value of 11) is the highest single digit; and it’s the highest attainment at that level before a person’s vibrations are elevated to the next higher octave. Thus, the B (11) in the duodecimal system is two steps more of completion than the 9 of the decimal system. This B (11) digit incorporates a Master number (11), and it represents deeper understanding and “illumination” as the point of completion at the current level before ascending to the next.
Base-12 Numerology
Once Number Nymph expanded her Readings into Base-12, hidden, yet ever-present, levels of vibration were revealed. As with music, the black keys of a piano are often desired and complementary notes to the white keys. Likewise, by identifying the additional vibrations in the Base-12 numerology sequence, Number Nymph found that a person’s energy/vibrations became richer and carried more dimensionality.
Explore your higher energy vibration in Base-12 and discover more of your natural music, your personal vibe. You may be amazed at how these vibrations reveal your Driving Force.

Love Through Understanding
Live Your Life With Love
Number Nymph realizes that the concept of sound and vibration, as resonances of energy – your energy – are in many ways new-age philosophies, yet they are supported and substantiated in the old-school scientific method of discovery; and they’re corroborated by modern science. They’re also chronicled by ancient scribes in many religious texts.
Number Nymph subscribes to the idea that your energy, your ‘vibe,’ can be identified and better understood so that you, too, can live a healthier, more whole existence. You can learn to love deeper, respect others for experiencing this Life within their own unique frequencies, and find harmony and balance with them while they move along their Life Journeys.
