Numerology is the belief that specific numbers have mystical significance in your life. With Numerology, several languages and cultures represent the same values worldwide. The notion of Numerology began with the Greek mathematician Pythagoras, who was fascinated by exploring the mysteries of life in numbers.
Calculating your personality and life path numbers will give you a valuable tool to help you move through your life with ease, clarity, and answers. Your personality number determines how the world and others view you, and your life path number determines your life's path and soul's purpose.
Numerology 101: The Basics will give you the equations to calculate and discover both numbers. You can then research more on your own to find out how to use these numbers to your advantage, helping you succeed in every area of your life.
Calculate and Discover Your Personality Number by Using Your Name
Each letter of the alphabet is assigned a number, and the list below is what you'll use to calculate your personality number. Keep it handy!
Here's the alphabet with each letter's number.
1– A, J, S ……………… 2– B, K, T…………….. 3– C, L, U…………… 4– D, M, V…………. 5– E, N, W
6– F, O, X …………….. 7– G, P, Y……………… 8– H, Q, Z ………… 9– I, R
Step One:
Write your full name on paper, including your first, middle (if you have one), and last names. Then, using the list above, assign a number to each letter of your name.
For example, if your name is Abe Smith, you would write Abe as 1, 2, 5 and Smith as 1, 4, 9, 2, 8.
Step Two:
Add all of the numbers of your name to get a large number. Then, take that large number and reduce it to a single-digit number. This single digit is your name number.
In Abe Smith's example, you would add together all the digits to get a total of 32. Then, reduce this to a single digit by splitting it into 3+2=5. Abe Smith's name number, therefore, is 5.
For another example, if all the letters of your name added up to 88, you would reduce it by splitting it into 8+8=16, and then 1+6=7. The number 7 would then be your name number.
Step Three:
Learn about your personality numbers below and research, as there are several interpretations; I've given you the basics. Remember also, because people sometimes change their names, your name number can change throughout your life, just like your personality can grow and evolve. Your name number is not a rigid definition of your personality but rather an indication of traits you might have.

Calculate and Discover Your Life Path Number by Using Your Birthday.
Write your entire birthday on a piece of paper. In the calculations below, there'll be two examples: December 14, 1957, and March 2, 2001
Step One:
Add the digits of your birth month to get a single number.
For example, if you were born in December, the 12th month of the year, you would add 1+2=3 and use 3.
For another example, if you were born in March, the 3rd month of the year, use 3.
Step Two:
Reduce the digits of your birth date to get a single number.
For example, if you were born on the 14th day of the month, you would add 1+4=5 and use 5.
For another example, if you were born on the 2nd day of the month, you would use 2.
Step three:
Reduce the year of your birth to a single number.
For example, if you were born in 1957, add together 1+9+5+7=22. Then split the 22 to 2+2=4 and use 4.
For another example, if you were born in 2001, add 2+0+0+1=3 and use 3.
The goal is to reduce your birth month, birth date, and birth year into three single-digit numbers so that you can add them together.
Step Four:
Add the single-digit reductions of your birth month, birth date, and birth year to get your Life Path Number.
Following the example above, if you were born on December 14, 1957, you would add together 3+5+4=12. Then, you would add together 1+2=3. Therefore, your Life Path Number would be 3.
Following the example above, if you were born on March 2, 2001, you would add together 3+2+3=8. Therefore, your Life Path Number would be 8.
Step Five:
Keep the numbers 11, 22, or 33 in your final step.
For example, if the sum of your birth month, birth date, and birth year is 11, 22, or 33, do not reduce the number any further. 11, 22, and 33 are considered master numbers in Numerology with special significance; please leave them as they are.
For example, if your birthday is March 5, 2001, you would get 3+5+3=11.
You do not need to reduce 11 to 1+1=2. Leave the number 11 as is.
Step Six:
I've given you the basics of life path number meanings below; interpret these as an outline and do research. Numerologists believe that the life path number predicts the course of one's life. It can hint at the challenges and victories ahead of you. Because it's based on your birthday, it will hold constant throughout your life and is a steady guide for you to revisit when needed.
==>Life Path Number Meanings<==
LPN 1
Number 1s are on a lifelong mission to exert their independence and step into their power. They carry a natural air of authority as a leader who likes to be the first to try something new. A strong desire for manifestation keeps them moving and improving. They're born to act quickly and have no problem changing or starting a new path, and their secret fear of failure makes them ultra-driven in every endeavor, often reaching victories one after the other. They always have their eyes peeled ahead and are the early birds to take advantage of and reap the rewards of new opportunities.
Number 1s may come across as isolated, impatient, or short-sighted. Cooperation with others at work or in romantic relationships can be challenging because they prefer to go their way. They don't identify much with others' pursuits and only feel free when unattached. A thriving love life is only sometimes one of their goals.
While others weigh their options and make long-term plans, Number 1s are already in motion, confident they can make things up as they go along.
LPN 2
Number 2s thrive in being part of a team -romantic, business, family, or friendships- and will do everything possible to make it a happy, easy, and prosperous union. They're incredibly giving and do well at creating long-lasting connections with others. Every action and decision of a person with a Number 2 is geared at creating a harmonious and peaceful existence. They're blessed with nurturing, beautiful hearts that they use to bring beautiful relationships into their lives. Number 2s have high intuition that gives them understanding and compassion to address and get in front of problems before becoming off balance.
Number 2s can be so passive that they miss out on their full potential. Whether this means staying silent about things that upset them or not asking for a raise or promotion to avoid rocking the boat, the challenge of Number 2s is always to put others' needs first and never their own.
LPN3
Number 3s are charming, romantic, and full of creative energy; they know how to embrace life and wiggle their way into anyone's heart. They see the world through rose-colored lenses, where everything looks like an opportunity and expression and enjoyment are endless. They're skilled communicators and natural extroverts who develop and share original brilliant ideas and make excellent journalists, bloggers, social media influencers, and authors. Number 3s enjoy an active social life. Their light is warm and exciting, drawing many friends and admirers, and they embrace any chance to show off their stand-out personality.
Number 3s are great at attracting others, keeping things fun and positive, and living in the moment. Yet, forming authentic, long-term, committed, and deep spiritual bonds with others can be challenging.
They genuinely enjoy who they are and what they do and want to keep things fun and new, yet could benefit from surrendering to a deeper, more spiritual, vulnerable, intimate side of life. They know there's a myriad of untapped experiences, ideas, and emotions that exist. Having the courage to explore and engage with their unique thinking will allow them to see the silver lining- no matter what comes their way.
LPN 4
Number 4s are dedicated, down-to-earth, hardworking, and a great stability source. They rely on constant, steady work effort to reach their goals- think tortoise and hare. They're consistent, composed, and practical in processing emotions and feelings, keeping them from extreme swings of moodiness. Number 4s speak confidently and clearly and are natural teachers. They are honest, loyal, trustworthy, committed, and prosperous. Others easily accept what Number 4s say due to their vast world knowledge.
The challenge for Number 4s is that they must remember that they're also students and always have more to learn. As a result, they can often make firm, outdated, misinformed decisions about what is right, close the door to anything new or different, and may need more time to reach their full potential.
Number 4s require fidelity from a partner and someone who shares their religious perspectives and values; they will not waste their time with someone they're incompatible with. When they find that special someone, they will do everything to make the relationship successful and commit to it long-term.
LPN 5
Number 5s are on a lifelong adventure, and while they might not always know where they're going, they're guaranteed an epic journey throughout life. They're ready for anything; to them, life is about experimenting, engaging, learning, and enjoying – they want to soak up every experience this world offers. Number 5s learn by living, are social extroverts, enjoy meeting new people, and want to share everything with everyone. Having the ability to decide to change careers that will allow them to travel and explore the world is essential to them and gives Number 5s the freedom and satisfaction they crave.
Routine is unbearable for Number 5s due to their fickle and flighty nature, and they don't allow themselves to get stuck in any situation that has outworn their interest. When things get humdrum, they'll move on to something more fascinating, yet this brings a challenge when maintaining long-term friendships or relationships as they'll tend to lose focus and bow out before there's a chance to create a deeper connection.
A Number 5's life will never be boring, mundane, or ordinary.
LPN 6
Number 6s embrace their emotions, lead with their hearts, have infinite love, and give off a warm and inviting energy that others want to be around. They enjoy romantic and friendly relationships, and when they meet anyone, they'll treat them with kindness, respect, and support as they can see and accept the many shades of grey between them. Number 6s easily connect with others, offer emotional support, protection, and advice, and do well as professional counselors, mentors, and teachers. They're genuine humanitarians eager to speak up, raise funds, and embrace the meaning of –a candle loses nothing by lighting another candle.
While Number 6s are realistic in knowing that lifelong relationships don't always last, they're devoted to love and committed to creating long-term, harmonious romantic relationships. They're refreshing to partners who are used to lovers who don't relate as well to their feelings, yet they must remember that while it may be noble to sacrifice oneself to love, it's also unhealthy.
It's vital for Number 6s to recognize their individuality in the relationship and to direct the same attention they give others-kindness, respect, and support- to themselves, which only then will they feel genuine and balanced.
LPN 7
Number 7s are analytical, curious, and eternal students of the Universe, are reflective individuals with an unquenchable thirst for knowledge, and enjoy looking into the inner workings of things. They're brilliant thinkers who can skillfully combine their brains with their intuition to learn about, process, and make sense of life. Number 7s are connected with their higher self, spiritually wise, and love gaining book smarts. They thrive in getting to know people, asking questions, and exchanging ideas. They are naturally skilled researchers and problem-solvers, making them an essential part of any team.
Number 7s love the freedom of going it alone and not having to explain themselves. They also enjoy the control and possibility of solitude; if given time and a quiet space to think and work, they'll often come up with the most profound, valuable, and viable solution to any issue.
Their social circle is small and comprises people with like-minded interests. They may initially be awkward in groups or find it challenging to connect emotionally or romantically with others. However, if allowed to go off independently, they will be great partners for those willing and patient to understand them.
LPN 8
Number 8s are supportive, hardworking, authoritative, supremely confident leaders who direct all their energy into creating a life of success and abundance. They love to gain their worth by providing, accomplishing, and reaching significant goals and taking on challenging lessons -the more critical the purpose or task, the more satisfying it feels when they achieve it. Prosperity, self-sufficiency, and material goods are essential to Number 8s because they're the direct rewards, proof, and reminders of their efforts to provide.
Number 8s are challenged when dealing with people in positions of authority; they often don't take kindly to being told what to do. They'd be wise to pay attention to their health because stress is an all-too-familiar companion for them, and if allowed, it will slow down or deter them from reaching their goals. Practicing a healthy lifestyle will help bring balance to these situations.
Regarding relationships, Number 8s will put in the same work and dedication they put into everything else. They do well in long-term romantic relationships, yet they may look more like business arrangements than passionate love affairs. They must learn that these relationships are about harmony and give and take.
LPN 9
Number 9s connect deeply to spirituality, religion, and sage-like wisdom. They're natural humanitarians, have big hearts, are confident, and have heightened awareness and intuition. Number 9s are devoted to their fellow man, supportive of those who feel unequal or unworthy, knowledgable, and known for enduring challenges with immeasurable strength and courage. They are natural counselors, spiritual advisors, and mediators, often with profound knowledge that helps others immensely along their life journey.
Number 9s often rely on gut reactions, which may sometimes outweigh logical thinking.
Because Number 9s have become accustomed to enduring their challenges on their own, unfortunately, they have a challenge asking for help. They must realize that asking for help is part of a cycle of give and take, and with as much support as Number 9s give, it's their karmic responsibility to receive assistance in return.
LPN 11
Master Number 11s are unbelievably intuitive and exhibit uncanny, accurate psychic abilities. They are lovely, spiritual souls with the unique awareness to use their abilities to better humanity. They believe in a higher power that has more to do with accessing higher truths about life rather than following the dogma of organized religion. Master Number 11s must openly acknowledge, accept, harness, and lean on their spiritual and psychic abilities; doing so will help them reach great spiritual enlightenment and life purpose.
A common challenge of Master Number 11s is trusting and having confidence in their abilities. These abilities can be sharpened and maximized with the daily practice of channeling their intuition and emotional awareness since these energies naturally course through their veins without struggle. As a result, they do well as healers, massage therapists, counselors, bodyworkers, artists, entrepreneurs, and other creative freedom-based careers.
Master Number 11s easily attract others and do exceptionally well in romantic relationships because they are highly attuned to their partner's emotions, wants, and needs. They often anticipate what their partner requires well in advance- think Twilight Zone in a good way. 🙂
LPN 22
Master Number 22s are spiritually connected, responsible, and dedicated individuals. They're hardworking, feel allegiance to others, and do their best to serve and improve the future of humankind. Master Number 22s have the uncanny ability to lead themselves and others with unparalleled drive. Often referred to as the Master Builder, Master Number 22s possess the extraordinary power of turning vague, indistinct dreams into concrete realities, and this is what they excel at, often using and mastering their unique cosmic gift to their advantage to achieve exceptional results in whatever they choose for work.
They understand the value of cooperation in all romantic and otherwise relationships and that those who go far in life go far together. They don't rely on their emotions and often come across as all work and no play, which can lead to a sudden fear of failure. Master Number 22s gain motivation to keep pushing forward when challenges present themselves.
Master Number 22's fulfillment comes from seeing how their hard work has come to fruition. These individuals have unmatched ambition, and nobody sets the bar higher than they do. Knowing they've done an excellent job is essential to them, and by embracing their abilities and knowledge, they'll readily do just that.
LPN 33
Master Number 33s are rare and are known as Master Teachers. They have a selfless spirit and can experience spiritual understanding and empathy that most people cannot comprehend. They're phenomenal healers and great spiritual leaders devoted to showing others how to connect to their hearts and consciousness.
Master Number 33s must face challenging life obstacles that will surely test them, and it can often feel like they're living a blessing and a curse. One of their most important lessons is to learn to heal themselves before they can exercise their spiritual ability and power to heal others. While it can take almost their entire lives to master being a Master Number 33, all the work will be worth the potential they can achieve through creativity, independence, spontaneity, and a solid grasp of the real world.
Master Number 33s also make excellent long-term romantic partners. They can and will listen intently to their partners and offer unparalleled emotional support.
