The Complete Guide to Date of Birth Numerology
Numerology is the ancient study of numbers and their influence on human life. Your birth date contains powerful numerical vibrations that reveal your life path, personality traits, and spiritual purpose.
What is a Life Path Number?
Your Life Path Number is the most important number in your numerology chart. Calculated from your full birth date, it represents:
- Your core personality and natural talents
- The major lessons you're here to learn
- The general direction of your life journey
- Your innate strengths and challenges
To calculate it manually, add all the digits of your birth date (day, month, year) and reduce to a single digit (unless you get 11 or 22, which are master numbers).
Understanding Your Destiny Number
Your Destiny Number (sometimes called Expression Number) reveals:
- Your life's spiritual purpose
- The talents you should develop
- Your potential achievements
- The legacy you might leave
This number is calculated by summing all digits in your birth date. For example, January 1, 1990 (01/01/1990) would be 0+1+0+1+1+9+9+0 = 21, then 2+1 = 3.
