Numerology

Numerology, explained simply

By Seema Rawat

Numerology is the belief that numbers have a special, cosmic connection to your life, personality, and future. In simple words, it's the study of how numbers shape who you are and what might happen in your life.

Just like astrology uses your birth date and the stars to read your nature, numerology uses numbers — such as your date of birth, or the numbers calculated from the letters in your name.

How it works

Single-digit reduction: in numerology, multi-digit numbers are added together until they form a single digit from 1 to 9 — except for special "Master Numbers" like 11, 22, and 33.

For example, if your birth date is 29, you add 2 + 9 = 11, and then 1 + 1 = 2. Your core number is 2.

Name numbers: each letter of the alphabet corresponds to a number (A=1, B=2, C=3, and so on). Adding up the numbers in your name reveals your personality traits.

Key numbers in numerology

Life Path Number: calculated from your full birth date. It represents your life journey, major lessons, and overall purpose.

Destiny / Expression Number: calculated from the letters of your full birth name. It reflects your natural talents, strengths, and potential.
