it is considered witchcraft which is forbidden in the Quran. A lot of Americans think that numerology is a part of Islam, because of Louis Farakhan and the Nation of Islam's use of numerology and astrology, but that is not even close to being an orthodox form of Islam. Not to say that astrology and numerology aren't common in Islamic countries (part of the old Pagan customs which have continued), but technically it is forbidden.
