1000-9999
So far your database consists of 999 peg images. To increase this tenfold, it is necessary for you to learn the nine ‘Super Pegs.’ A cheesy name I know, but I like it :-)
The Nine Super Pegs
999-1999 = Ice
2000-2999 = Fire
3000-3999 = Rainbow
4000-4999 = Cloud
5000-5999 = Moon
6000-6999 = Volcano
7000-7999 = Earthquake
8000-8999 = Picture frame
9000-9999 = Boxing ring
I believe that the best way for me to explain precisely how the above super pegs operate, is by putting forward another series of examples. I have done precisely this below.
Examples
Using the above key, a vast amount of numbers may be easily visualised.
So in order to visualise the number 1, 241, you might for example imagine a block of ‘Ice,’ (to represent the 1000’s), with a large ‘Bee,’ caught inside of it (to represent the 200’s). The bee is frozen in the act of stinging a large, black rat (to represent the number 41).
To visualise the number 3, 576, you could try imagining an ‘Eagle’ (to represent the 500’s), flying beneath a brightly coloured ‘Rainbow’ (representing the 3000’s), with a trail of ‘Cash’ (76) leading away from it into the distance.
The number 5, 955, may be visualised by simply imagining a huge ‘Eye’ (900’s), staring out of a snow-white ‘Moon’ (5000’s), with a large ‘Lily’ (55), growing from its surface.
The number 7, 682 might be visualised by creating an image, in your minds eye, of a ‘Frog’ (600’s), cooling itself in front of a ‘Fan’ (82), when an ‘Earthquake’ (7000’s) begins, causing both the frog and the fan to tumble to and fro across the ground.
The number 8, 430 could be visualised by simply imagining an oversized ‘Dish’ (400’s), which is encased with ‘Moss’ (30), all of which is contained in a large bronze ‘Picture Frame’ (8000’s).
Finally, in order for you to visualise the number 9, 707, you first set the scene – a ‘Boxing ring’ (9000’s), in which an enormous ‘Key’ (7), rests on the top of a large pile of blue ‘Jeans’ (700’s).
Note that the zero in the final example is not converted into a peg image. This is because such an image would be superfluous and would just needlessly complicate your peg.
In fact in my database any zero, unless it is the last digit of a number, need not be visualised. This makes a number such as 6, 002 an extremely easy number to create a peg image for. To remember this number, you would link together the words volcano and knee. An incredibly easy image to recall.
So to summarise the above system. The numbers 99-999may be visualised by using the method outlined briefly below.
100-999
The basic pegs + A (hay) = 100-199
The basic pegs + B (bee) = 200-299
The basic pegs + C (sea) = 300-399
The basic pegs + D (dish) = 400-499
The basic pegs + E (eagle) = 500-599
The basic pegs + F (frog) = 600-699
The basic pegs + G (jeans) = 700-799
The basic pegs + H (age) = 800-899
The basic pegs + I (eye) = 900-999
The numbers 1000-9999, may be visualised as described below.
1000-9999
Ice + A-I = 1000-1999
Fire + A-I = 2000-2999
Rainbow + A-I = 3000-3999
Cloud + A-I = 4000-4999
Moon + A-I = 5000-5999
Volcano + A-I = 6000-6999
Earthquake + A-I = 7000-7999
Picture frame + A-I = 8000-8999
Boxing ring + A-I = 9000-9999
The above system should not take you very long to master. Providing of course that you are relatively competent at the arts of linking and pegging. If you are, then an hour or so should be sufficient enough time for you to become quick enough at bringing any peg image, from 0-9999 to mind, to be able to use the system in your day to day life.
