Frequently asked questions
What is a Life Path Number?
Your Life Path Number is calculated by reducing your birth month, day, and year each to a single digit (or a "master number" — 11, 22, or 33 — which is traditionally left unreduced), then summing and reducing those results again.
What are master numbers?
In numerology, 11, 22, and 33 are considered "master numbers" and are traditionally not reduced further to a single digit the way other totals are, because they are believed to carry amplified significance.
Is Life Path Number the same as gematria?
No — it uses only your birth date (no letters at all), unlike gematria and other numerology systems that work from names. It shares numerology's reduction technique, but is calculated entirely differently. See Gematria vs. Numerology for the full distinction.
