Cheiro saw 13 not as simply unlucky but as a number of change and upheaval: plans and places shift, and power comes to those who handle change well. The Western fear of 13 has no basis in Indian tradition.

How we wrote this: Astroly's astrology desk bases date readings on traditional Indian numerology (ank jyotish), the planetary friendships of Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra and, for compound-number meanings, the Western tradition recorded by Cheiro, which many Indian numerologists also follow. Numerology describes tendencies, not fixed outcomes.
