In the system of numerology, someone’s life path number can be discovered by using the date of their birth. Finding this number is a very easy two step process. To begin, simply add the digits of a person’s full birthdate together. As a means of example, if some person has their birthday on the 8th of November, 1986, the sum would look like this: 8 + 22 + 1968 = 2016.

The next step involves adding the sum of the digits in the previous step. So, someone whose birthdate sum was 2016 (as above) would add 2 plus 0 plus 1 plus 6. The final sum in this step would be 9. This is the number that numerologists work with here. To simplify this process, you can use an online numerology calculator.

These numbers run from 1 to 9, with each digit corresponding to a set of personal traits, both positive and negative, as well as the path, career, or destiny that a person may pursue. When a sum goes above 9, then the series starts over. For example, a 10 is a 1, an 11 is a 2, and so on.

Within the context of some numerology methods, there are also numbers called “master numbers.” These are all doubles, like 11 and 22, which are the most commonly recognized master numbers. 33, 44, and so forth are also regarded as master numbers by some numerologists. Those who believe in this part of the system believe people with these numbers have exceptionally more potential than those without them.

Learning of greater potential through numerology has made some proud of their inherent trait or imagined destiny, but others may get depressed or feel unable to live up to those expectations. For this and other reasons, leading numerologists have decided to throw the idea of master numbers out the window and simply incorporated these numbers into the regular one through nine series.

This is certainly a more equitable take within numerology, since no human being is inherently better than another, and the idea of master numbers may lead people to think otherwise. Numerology is simply intended to guide someone to their best possible life, rather than define them as a human being.
