Learning the meanings of NUMBERS in Numerology is a key that opens the lock to the doors of numerous other forms of divination; e.g. Dice, Aura, Cartomancy, Angel, Zener E.S.P. cards, Astrology, etc.
Readings with a 20-sided Die:
Invite the Sitter to think of and ask an important question that they don’t know the answer to while they roll the 20-sided die.
Use the Numerological meanings of the number(s) to answer their question.
Roll again if more clarification is needed.

Number 11: Illumination & Inspiration
The “Master Designer”. Great ideas but slow to manifest them. People with this number have access to all sorts of high-level awarenesses that most of us do not receive. They are extremely capable and get wonderful ideas, but need to make sure that these ideas are practical.
They are idealistic dreamers and seldom achieve more than a minute fraction of what they are capable of achieving.
Everyone is aware of their superior capabilities, and often expect more than these people feel capable – or willing – to give. There is often a great deal of tension associated with master numbers.
Number 22: The “Master Builder”
Not all that creative, but able to take existing ideas and make them possible. This number is known as the Master Builder. These people have the awareness of the eleven, but also have the necessary practicality to carry the ideas out.
They are extremely capable and have the opportunity to make their mark in life.
They are practical and have an unusual approach to problems, often using lateral thinking to create unique solutions.
They are often charismatic and can inspire and motivate others. They are usually at their peak fairly late in life. The pressures and nervous tension of a master number make it very difficult to achieve well early on in life. The keyword is MASTER BUILDER.
Number 33: The “Master Teacher“
Represents pure love, compassion, and spiritual understanding. It embodies the energies of both 11 and 22, making it a powerful number associated with nurturing, creativity, and a deep desire to uplift humanity.
