Complete guide: Numerology
Updated:
Life path adds every digit of the birth date and reduces the total. For example, January 1, 1990 totals 21 and reduces to 3. This tool uses a direct sum, not separate reduction of day, month and year: other methods may differ.
Expression number uses cyclic values A=1 through I=9, J=1 and so on through Z=8. Every letter of your entered name is added; spaces, hyphens and apostrophes are ignored. Accents are removed and Ñ is treated as N; other alphabets are not transliterated.
Personal year adds birth-day and birth-month digits to the selected year's digits, always reducing to 1–9. It uses January–December calendar years, not birthday-to-birthday years. Life path and expression can preserve 11, 22 and 33 during reduction.
Entertainment and symbolic reflection: there is no scientific evidence that these numbers or signs predict personality, the future or relationship success.
