What is Numerology?
Numerology is the ancient study of numbers and their mystical significance in our lives. Based on the idea that the universe is mathematically precise, numerology reveals how numbers derived from your name and birth date influence your personality, life path, and destiny.
Dating back thousands of years to ancient civilizations including Babylon, Egypt, and Greece, numerology gained modern prominence through mathematician Pythagoras, who believed "all is number." Today, numerology helps millions understand their life purpose and make aligned decisions.

How Numerology Calculations Work
Numerology uses a simple reduction method to calculate your core numbers. For your Life Path number, you add all digits of your birth date and reduce them to a single digit (or Master Number 11, 22, 33). For example, if you were born on July 14, 1990: 7 + 1 + 4 + 1 + 9 + 9 + 0 = 31, then 3 + 1 = 4. Your Life Path number is 4.
Expression and Soul Urge numbers use a letter-to-number conversion chart (A=1, B=2, C=3, etc.) based on the Pythagorean system. Each letter in your name converts to a number, then all numbers are added and reduced.
Master Numbers (11, 22, 33) are special and don't get reduced further. They indicate heightened potential and spiritual significance, though they also come with greater challenges.
