AIQ-BEKER [Kabalah of Nine Chambers] is the process of reducing numbers and letters to their component parts to determine their essence. Gematria is the traditional Hebrew name for it.
The method of AIQ-BEKER is often used to reduce large numbers to a single number from 1 to 9. To use this method, add up the individual numbers in each digit position of the large number. If this sum has more than one digit, add these numbers together. Keep adding in this way until only one digit remains. For example, the number 1234 reduces to 10 (1+2+3+4=10) which gets reduced to 1 (1+0=1). After the final digit from 1 to 9 is determined use the following table to uncover the occult significance.
Numeric Meaning AIQ-BEKER
The "Letter to Numeric" chart, on the next page, shows you how to take entire words or even sentences and break them down to their core meanings. You look up each letter of the word (or sentence) in the table below and then add all the individual values to get one large number. Next use AIQ-BEKER to break this number down to its 1 to 9 digit equivalent and use the Numeric meaning chart to look up the quality.
Take the word "spirit" for example (using the Enochian column). This word breaks down to: 7+9+60+100+60+9=245 2+4+5=11 1+1=2 and 7+9+60+100+60+3=239 2+3+9=14 1+4=5. So the word "spirit" has the quality of 2 and 5. The reason I did it twice was because the letter "T" has a dual value. Words containing dual or multiple values have more than one quality.
Please note that there are several different Gematria systems in use today. Each one may give different results. The chart below lists the most common occult systems.

You can also use AIQ-BEKER to determine the quality of a person. Just add up the digits of a person' name and see what number that name is associated with. People with nicknames can have multiple qualities connected to them. Use the following interpretations for the meaning of each numeric personality type.
Interpreting the Numbers for Personalities:
The number one stands for the Sun and all that is strong, individual, and creative. Number one people are born leaders. They are ambitious and active, and are often dominant and aggressive. One is a powerful number, and it augurs success. It is the number of innovators, leaders, winners -- but also of tyrants! Number one people can be very self-centered, ruthless, and stubborn if crossed, and their chosen career or activity will probably receive more energy and attention than their personal relationships. Sunday is the day associated with the Sun and with the number one.
The Moon and Mondays are associated with the number two. Number two people are more gentle, passive, and artistic than the stronger number one personality. Number two people are more geared to thought then to action and, although they are inventive, they will be less forceful in carrying out their plans. They are likely to have charm and power of intuition but they may suffer from a lack of self-confidence. Number two people can be changeable (perhaps even deceitful) and may be over sensitive and depressive. Number two people get along well with their opposites, the number one people.
Energetic, disciplined, talented, number-three people often achieve success in their chosen fields. In fact they are seldom satisfied with less, as they are conscientious, very proud, independent, and love to be in control. They may be too fond of telling other people what to do but they have many good qualities. A superficial show may hide considerable spirituality since three is the number of the trinity. Number three people have good relationships with other number three people and with those born under six and nine. Jupiter is the planet of this number and Thursday is the luckiest day for number three people.
Number four (the number of the seasons, the elements, the points of a compass) is oriented to the earth and number four people may be steady and practical, with great endurance. Yet the number four (the square) contains its own opposite, and number four people often see everything from the opposite point of view, making them rebellious and unconventional. They are seldom interested in material things. Making friends is hard. Number four personalities often feel isolated. People whose numbers are one, two, seven, and eight are the best friends or partners with number four people. The number four is associated with the planet Uranus and with Sundays.
Number five (the number of the senses) symbolizes the planet Mercury and people born under this number are mercurial in all their characteristics. Lively, sensual, pleasure-seeking, impulsive, quick-thinking and quick-tempered, these highly-strung number five people may have trouble with their nerves. They are good at making money, especially through risk or speculation, and they bounce back easily from any failure. They make friends easily with people born under any other number, but close friends will probably be fellow number five's. Wednesday is the luckiest day for the quicksilver number five.
Six is balance and harmony and is associated with family,
love, and domestic matters. Number six people are romantic rather than sensual.
They have a great love of beauty. They are usually attractive and have a great
ability to make friends with any other number. Despite disliking any sort of
discord, they can be obstinate fighters. The luckiest day for number six people
is Friday.
The number seven is thought to have occult significance, and people born under its influence often have a strong philosophical or spiritual outlook; they are not usually interested in material things. They may be highly intuitive, even psychic. Number seven people often exert a mysterious influence over others, but may also have a tendency to become too introverted. They are original thinkers and have luck associated with their number. Their planet is Neptune, which is associated with water, and number seven people often have a restless love of travel and of the sea. Monday is their luckiest day.
Number eight is a strange, difficult number. It is twice four, and so incorporates the rebellious contradictions of that number. Number eight can often imply sorrow because of its energy connections, yet it is also associated with worldly success. Number eight people have great willpower and individuality, but they may appear cold. In fact, they have deep intense feelings and are often misunderstood by others. Their planet is Saturn and Saturday is their most important day.
Number nine is sometimes considered the ultimate number, with special or even sacred significance. When multiplied by any number, it reproduces itself (i.e. 3 x 9 = 27, 2 + 7 = 9). Number nine symbolizes the planet Mars and its people are fighters. Active and determined, number nine people usually succeed after a struggle. They are also prone to accident and injury and may be quarrelsome. But at its best, number nine energy instills the highest qualities of courage and brotherly love. Number nine people should try to carry out their plans on Tuesday, the day governed by their planet, Mars.
Special Secondary Numbers
Note: The numbers eleven and twenty-two are master vibrations, and therefore when dealing with personalities these numbers are not reduced any further. The numbers twelve and thirteen are not normally part of numerology but they do have use within AIQ-BEKER so they are listed here.
Number eleven incorporates special mystical awareness and the balance between good and evil. Number eleven people normally reside mentally on the high spiritual plane and are intuitive, filled with illumination, ideas, and dreams. The negative side of eleven people is insensitivity and fanaticism.
The number twelve is a powerful sign of completeness because the number is affiliated with the signs of the zodiac, the months, the Apostles, etc. Seeing twelve may mean that a word or number has come full circle and is complete. Also "1 + 2 = 3" and three is the number of the trinity; so twelve also carries with it the quality of divinity.
The number thirteen is one more than the perfect twelve. This number is usually associated with ill fortune and the black arts, but it can also be a positive force when used in its 12 + 1 configuration. The Christ Consciousness is a twelve-plus-one (12+1) energy: the twelve Apostles (earth) plus Jesus (Godhead) form earthly perfection governed by brotherly love, truth, justice, perfect harmony.
The number twenty-two is another powerful number that suggests completeness. In a personality it is the mark of a master builder: large endeavors, powerful forces and leadership. On the negative side it can lead to impractical idealism, get-rich-quick schemes, and viciousness.
