What Is Numerology

Long before modern science, ancient scholars believed numbers were more than symbols for counting, they were the language of the universe. Among them was the Greek mathematician and philosopher Pythagoras, who taught that each number holds a unique vibration capable of shaping our personality, influencing our choices, and revealing our destiny. 

Numerology is the art of decording these vibrations. By reading the numbers hidden in your birth date and name. It unveils your strengths, challenges, and life purpose, like a cosmic GPS, guiding you toward the path you were meant to walk and helping you avoid life’s hidden pitfalls. 

How to calculate your life path number

Your life path number is found by adding together all the numbers in your birth date until you get a single digit (1-9)

For example

If your birthday is 18 December 1995:

Write it as numbers: 1 + 8 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 9 + 9 + 5

Add them up: 1 + 8 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 9 + 9 + 5 =36

Reduce to a single digit 3 + 6 = 9

Your life path number is 9

Tip: Some methods add year, month, and day separate before reducing. Either way, you’ll get the same result
