How to calculate your Life Path number.

Your Life Path number is the number numerology starts with. Practitioners treat it as the number that runs your whole chart — the core pattern underneath everything else.

Here's the math: take your full birth date — month, day, and year — add every digit together, and keep reducing until one digit remains.

Example: July 4, 1990. Seven plus four plus one plus nine plus nine plus zero is thirty. Three plus zero is three. That's a 3.

One exception: the Master Numbers — 11, 22, and 33 — are not reduced. If your digits add up to 11, 22, or 33, you stop there. In the tradition, 11 is the intuitive channel, 22 is the master builder, and 33 is the master teacher. They carry their own meaning.

Once you have your number, each one has a character: 1 is the leader, 2 the diplomat, 3 the communicator, 4 the builder, 5 the freedom seeker, 6 the nurturer, 7 the seeker, 8 the powerhouse, and 9 the humanitarian. We'll cover each one in this series.
