What does number 4 mean in numerology?
Number 4 is ruled by Rahu and stands for structure: practical, hard-working, systematic. You are a Mulank 4 if you were born on the 4th, 13th, 22nd or 31st of any month.
Which planet rules number 4?
In Indian numerology 1 to 9 are ruled by the Sun, Moon, Jupiter, Rahu, Mercury, Venus, Ketu, Saturn and Mars in that order, so 4 belongs to Rahu. The day and colour follow that planet.

How are Mulank 4 and Bhagyank 4 calculated?
Mulank (driver number) is the day of birth reduced to one digit. Bhagyank (destiny number) is every digit of the birth date added and reduced to one digit. The Western life path adds the reduced month, day and year and keeps 11, 22 and 33.
Example, born 13 August 1990: Mulank = 1 + 3 = 4. Bhagyank = 1 + 3 + 8 + 1 + 9 + 9 + 0 = 31 → 3 + 1 = 4.
Which numbers are friendly with 4?
Friendly: 5, 6, 8. Not friendly: 1, 2, 7, 9.
Two numbers are friendly when their planets are natural friends both ways, or friends one way and neutral the other (Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra, chapter 3, with Rahu treated as Saturn and Ketu as Mars). This is the rule the app’s Numerology tool uses.
