諸如此類的發現使畢達哥拉斯學派得出了“一切皆為數”的結論。根據一種解釋，這意味著人們可以測量世界上的一切，并用數字和比例來描述它。這是一個合理的想法，它對科學和數學產生了很大的影響。但根據另一種解釋，“一切都是數字”意味著世界上的一切都是由數字組成的，可以簡化為一個數值。

【雙語閱讀|數字命理學是什么？】

Greek philosopher Pythagoras believed that everything in the universe could be explained by numbers. 希臘哲學家畢達哥拉斯認為宇宙中的一切都可以用數字來解釋。

In their study of mathematical concepts, the Pythagoreans sorted numbers into categories. Numbers like one, four and nine are square because a corresponding number of dots or pebbles can be arranged in a perfect square. One, three, six and 10 are triangular — one, three, six or 10 dots can be arranged into regular triangles. Two, six and 12 are oblong, since the corresponding number of pebbles form rectangles.
畢達哥拉斯學派在研究數學概念時，把數字分類。像1、4和9這樣的數字是正方形的，因為相應數量的圓點或鵝卵石可以排列成完全正方形。1、3、6和10是三角形的——1、3、6或10個點可以排列成規則的三角形。2、6和12是長方形的，因為相應數量的鵝卵石形成矩形。
Along with describing numbers in terms of math and geometry, the Pythagoreans also described them in terms of non-numerical traits. These traits had more to do with intuition and mysticism than science or mathematics.
畢達哥拉斯學派不僅用數學和幾何來描述數字，還用非數字的特征來描述它們。這些特征更多地與直覺和神秘主義有關，而不是科學或數學。
For example, odd numbers are masculine and even numbers are feminine. The No. 1 is creative, since the addition of multiple ones can create any other number. Two represents duality and is female, while three is male. As the sum of two and three, five represents marriage, and since it falls exactly in the middle of the numbers one through nine, it also represents justice.
例如，奇數代表陽性，偶數代表陰性。數字1是有創意的，因為多個數字相加可以得到任何其他數字。二代表二元性，是女性，三代表男性。五是二加三的和，代表婚姻，因為它正好在數字1到9的中間，所以它也代表正義。
Ten is a sacred number, largely because it is the sum of the first four digits.
10是一個神圣的數字，很大程度上是因為它是前四位數字的和。
After the death of Pythagoras, interest in mathematical mysticism faded. It reappeared in the late 1800s when Mrs. L. Dow Balliett published several books on number vibration, music and colors. According to Balliett, each number has a specific vibration. People, foods, objects and colors also vibrate. In order to live a productive and harmonious life, people should make sure their environment vibrates in harmony with their own vibrations. This concept appears frequently in other new age practices, some of which describe it as an affect of the movement of subatomic particles. However, there has been little scientific study to identify or quantify such a vibration or to analyze its affect on human existence.
畢達哥拉斯死后，人們對數學神秘主義的興趣逐漸消退。它在19世紀后期重新出現，當時L. Dow Balliett夫人出版了幾本關于數字振動、音樂和顏色的書。根據Balliett的說法，每個數字都有特定的振動。人、食物、物體和顏色也會振動。為了過上富有成效和和諧的生活，人們應該確保他們的環境振動與他們自己的振動和諧一致。這個概念經常出現在其他新時代的實踐中，其中一些將其描述為亞原子粒子運動的影響。然而，很少有科學研究來確定或量化這種振動或分析它對人類生存的影響。
