The following is an excerpt from a numerology page at globalpsychics.com on numerology calculation methods.

CHALDEAN/KABBALAH METHOD is said to be only true and reliable system. It was originated by ancient Chaldeans, passed on to the Hebrews. The knowledge became part of the Kabbalah (Jewish mysticism/mystical tradition). This system of numerological calculation was taught to Jesus by the Essenes.

Western/Pythagorean Method doesn’t work as well because the values aren’t based on sound vibration – the Western system is considered more of a "Parlour Game", partly because it doesn’t emphasize compound numbers (destiny).

There is scientific rationale correlating sound vibration with organic patterns.Pythagoras (Greek philosopher & mathematician 2,500 yrs ago) devised a system of numerological calculation that was lost when he fell from favour. Some years later a student of his assigned numbers to the letters of the alphabet, sequentially, instead of according to sound vibration. This system is damaged, as our modern alphabet didn’t exist then. Interesting, the Pythagorean system formed the spiritual basis for many secret societies e.g. the Masons.
