Numerology often involves vague or flexible interpretations that can be applied to almost any situation, a phenomenon known as the Forer effect (or Barnum effect). For example, a numerologist might describe a “Life Path Number” in broad terms (e.g., “you are a natural leader with challenges in communication”), which could apply to nearly anyone, leading believers to find personal meaning where none exists.
Practitioners and believers of numerology may fall victim to confirmation bias, where they focus on instances that support their numerological predictions while ignoring or rationalizing those that don’t. This selective attention reinforces the belief in numerology but doesn’t validate its accuracy or reliability.
