Choosing an auspicious phone number is a practical application of Auspiciousness analysis. The key principles are: (1) Avoid endings in 4 — in Cantonese and Mandarin, 4 sounds like death, and phone numbers ending in 4 are considered inauspicious for personal use. (2) Favour endings in 8, 6, or 9 — 8 (prosperity), 6 (smooth sailing), and 9 (longevity) are the most auspicious endings. (3) Check the digit sum — add all digits and reduce to a single number. A sum of 8, 6, or 9 is ideal. (4) Look for embedded phrases — 518 (我要發), 168 (一路發), 138 (一生發) are highly sought after. (5) Avoid 514 (我要死, "I want to die") and similar inauspicious phonetic combinations. Enter your candidate phone number and ask TIAN for a full score and analysis.
