How is the destiny number calculated?
Turn letters into numbers
Each letter of your full name is turned into a number with the Pythagorean table (A=1, B=2 … I=9, J=1 …).
Add and reduce
The total of all letters is reduced to a single digit; 11, 22 and 33 are kept as master numbers.
Compare with the life path
The destiny number is compared with the life path number from your birth date; numbers from the same family are harmonious.
Planet, day and colour
Cheiro's correspondences give the number's planet (1 Sun, 2 Moon, 3 Jupiter, 4 Uranus, 5 Mercury, 6 Venus, 7 Neptune, 8 Saturn, 9 Mars); the lucky day and colour come from that planet.
What does the destiny number tell you?
The destiny number describes the talents you were born with and how you show them to the world. The life path number shows the road you walk; when the two are in harmony, your talents smooth your path.
Frequently asked questions
Is the destiny number the same as the life path number?
No. The destiny number comes from your name, the life path number from your birth date. Some sources also call the birth-date number a destiny number; we show the two separately.
