How it works

Reduce the day, the month and the year of your birth to one digit each, add the three results, then reduce again. The numbers 11, 22 and 33 are master numbers and are not reduced further. For example, 14 August 1992: the day 14 gives 5, the month is 8, and the year 1992 gives 21 and then 3, so 5 + 8 + 3 = 16, which gives a Life Path of 7.

Common questions

What is the most important number in numerology?
The Life Path. It describes the general direction of your life, and it comes only from your birth date, so it never changes.
What are master numbers?
11, 22 and 33 are kept as they are because they are read as stronger versions of 2, 4 and 6, with more potential and more pressure.
Does my name change my Life Path?
No. Your name gives other numbers, such as Destiny and Soul Urge. The Life Path uses only the date.
