How to Calculate Your Life Path Number
The calculation is simpler than you think. It's an illuminating process of reducing your birth date down to its core vibrational essence.
Example Calculation
Date of birth: 14 August 1995
1 + 4 + 8 + 1 + 9 + 9 + 5 = 37
3 + 7 = 10
1 + 0 = 1
Step 1: Reduce Your Birth Year, Month, and Day
Write down your full birth date and reduce each component (year, month, day) to a single digit or a Master Number (11, 22, or 33).
Example: August 14, 1995
- Month: August is the 8th month. It's already a single digit. Month = 8
- Day: The day is 14. Reduce it: 1 + 4 = 5. Day = 5
- Year: The year is 1995. Reduce it: 1 + 9 + 9 + 5 = 24. Reduce again: 2 + 4 = 6. Year = 6
Step 2: Sum the Reduced Numbers
Add the three single-digit numbers together.
Example: 8 + 5 + 6
8 + 5 + 6 = 19
Step 3: Perform the Final Reduction
Reduce the final sum to a single digit (or leave it if it's 11, 22, or 33). This is your Life Path Number.
Example: 19
1 + 9 = 10
1 + 0 = 1
The Life Path Number is 1!
