Life Path Number calculations

It is important to note that if you were born in either the month of October, November or December you must reduce your birth month to a single digit. For instance December = 12, but in numerology we would need to reduce that number to a single digit. We would do this by adding the 1 and 2 to get a 3 (i.e. December = 12 = 1 + 2 = 3).

February 26, 1975 becomes 02 26, 1975. We then add up all the numbers.

2+2+6+1+9+7+5
=32
=3+2
=5


The Life Path Number, then, is the number 5. We will separate each of the elements of our birth dates. You can add up your day of birth, month of birth, and year of birth and then add them together.

For example.

February 26, 1975

=2 + (2+6) + (1+9+7+5)
=2+8+(22)
=2+8+(2+2)
=2+8+4
=14
=5



When calculating the Life Path Number, yes, we want to reduce it to a single digit. But, the double-digit number also holds information from our past and the lessons we need to learn. Henceforth, the Life Path Number would be written as follows:
Life Path Number = 14/5


For another example.


Birth Date = April 25, 1975
= 4 +. (2 + 5) + (1 + 9 + 7 + 5)
= 4 + 7 + (22)
= 4 + 7 + (2 + 2)
= 4 + 7 + 4
= 15
= 6


This person's Life Path Number would then be 15/6. Now that we know how to calculate the Life Path Number, let's discover exactly what this numerological number has to say about each of us. Related to each number's strengths and weaknesses, the Life Path Numbers encourage us to perfect our imperfect selves.

3.1.1. Life Path Number One

Your life path will take you to the heights of independence and leadership. But before you can attain your destined success, you must learn to practice moderation, develop patience and accept your limitations. You must also resign yourself to the fact that the world does not revolve around you.

3.1.2. Life Path Number Two

Your life path is one of harmony, teamwork and co­operation; you are destined to unite people in common good. But in order to succeed in your life path you will need to learn to say "no," refusing to allow others to take advantage of your generosity and gentility. You also need to get your head out of the clouds - too much fantasy could keep you from actualizing your goals.
