Numerology is the study of numbers in your name and birth date to explore personality traits, life direction, and destiny patterns. Core numbers include the Life Path, Destiny, Soul Urge, and more — each number carries unique energy and meaning.

How do I calculate my Life Path number?

Your Life Path number is calculated by adding the digits of your birth date (year, month, day), then reducing to a single digit (1-9) or master number (11 or 22). For example, if your birthday is 1990-05-15: 1+9+9+0+5+1+5 = 30, then 3+0 = 3. Your Life Path is 3.
