Which type of karmic debt are you carrying?

January 22, 2009 by Andrew 9 Comments

Pythagorean numerology believes in reincarnation. 

Each reincarnation helps our spiritual self inch closer to a state of higher awareness however in some incarnations we make mistakes and may even commit crimes. These mistakes manifest themselves as karmic debt.

The double-digit numbers 13, 14, 16 and 19 represent this karmic debt. They are most important when they manifest in your core numbers and in particular your Life Path, Heart’s Desire, Personality and Birth Day.

Each of the karmic debt numbers has its own special meaning, its own characteristics and each represents its own unique challenge.

Pythagorean numerology often reduces numbers to a single-digit so how can these double-digit numbers occur?  The number 1 is reached by adding 1+0, 2+8 or 3+7 for example. 3+7 totals 10 which in turn becomes 1+0 and 1.

In addition, the numbers 1, 4, 5 and 7 can be preceded by certain two-digit combinations in order to highlight the karmic debt number. When the number 7 is preceded by the number 16 we count the 16, when the number 5 is preceded by the number 14 we count the 14 and when the number 3 is preceded by the number 13 then we count the 13.

The number 13 in karmic debt

People with carrying the karmic debt of 13 may often feel that for every two steps forward they take one step back. As a result, some give up and others succumb to laziness. However, hard work is the watchword of the number 13 and with focus and concentration, those burdened by the number will succeed.

The number 14 in karmic debt

This karmic debt is often accrued through overindulgence in previous lives. As a result, those burdened by the number may once again fall prey to the temptations of drugs, alcohol, too much food or other heady delights. The watchword of the number 14 is commitment. This karmic debt is overcome by leading an ordered but flexible life.

The number 16 in karmic debt

The number 16 represents revolution, the pulling down of the old establishment in favour of something new. It stands for regeneration as much as it does for destruction. Those burdened by the number 16 will experience this; they will experience a great fall but will regenerate and recover with strength.  Humility is essential and the ego is a great weakness.

The number 19 in karmic debt

This karmic debt drives people towards the extremes of independence and sometimes isolation. The challenge faced by those carrying this burden is to open up and accept help from others.  Lessons are often learnt the hard way by those living with the number 19.

In Pure Spirit

Do you carry any of the karmic debt numbers? What does it mean to you? Do you think one of these numbers might be in play in your life?

    The 16 karmic debt occurs in my Life Path (16/7) and it has me already experienced rise and fall more than once in this life. The falls are never happy but it also plants seeds for huge spiritual growth..

    I have a few questions to clarify. So if your born in the 20th Century, is that considered a Karmic Debt number, so therefore everyone born in the 1900's was born with some sort of Karmic Debt during the last Century? And lets say if a number in your B-date is 17 then do you count just the 7 as a root number or only when is it transformed into another number by using the formula equation (1+7) and disregard it as part of the Karmic debt? I did an equation with 17 and 19 in it and after doing the Karmic Debt Equation the base number I came up with is 8. So then that means there's no Karmic Debt am I right?

    I have a karmic debt 16 it seems and its apparently because i abused some love affairs and didn't allow myself to develop my own talents/ not honest about my feelings..something along those lines i think. .It sucks because i try to figure myself out and help others in the process and i have had past life regression which says i was controlled through previous lives. My conclusion is that this must have shut away my ability to have close intimate relationships with others in this life leading to a lot of strops, moodiness, depression, resentment, loneliness, anger and confusion and i do admit something it seems things just don't work out for whatever reason and you keep trying to find answers but they just don't come to you that easily and you feel exhausted after a while. You also try and find people that might understand but you don't seem to and it feels like things happen that way just to piss you off whereas others around seem to not have the same issues. Guess i need to start trying to find the meaning behind "letting go and letting God" Does it mean doing nothing???? Everyone has an ego and it sucks cos it's not easy to shed but it's true it's got to be let go off to climb up spiritually. I'm glad there's others on here with the same number. Am not too much into numerology but it gives a perspective on things :P

    I have a 16. I have called myself a phoenix so many times. I go through extreme times, I rise and I fall, and I am destroyed, but I ALWAYS rise higher after every fall. My understanding deepens, I become stronger. I completely out of touch with the physical world, i.e, money, bills, schedules, the concept of time, monetary responsibilities. I try but just can’t seem to pull it together. I read somewhere that I hurt people through my love affairs that I used to gain wealth and to serve my own needs. Makes sense, I have seen myself repeating this same pattern most of my life and yet, before I gain the rewards, I throw a wrench in my own plans. Not consciously. but looking back, I can see the pattern repeating. I am on my way to being married. I don’t want to destroy this too. I want to be happy, and successful. I want a chance to really embrace this life for more than a few months at a time. I am tired of destroying all that is around me. I am tired of burning in my own fire.

    The 19… is so true. Always i get a friend i really do get along, we become best friends, then when i realize im all alone, i become mad and i’m too proud to get help. So i get someone close again, and become good friends, and the cicle is coming again! I have a dependency problem and hate to be alone. When i remember all i have till now, i just remember being alone. this so true, some time i feel isolated. Before reading this i already felt i was no lucky with friends and stuff, no i can see why! And its hard to show need of help, it atacks right away our ego, proud. Showing being selfless. I swear, every relationship i kinda become co-dependent without noticing it, it won’t last a year. For somehow i will end up alone.
