Numerology reference
Life Path numerology turns a birth date into a symbolic number associated with recurring themes and questions. Use it as a language for reflection—not a personality test, prediction, or limit on who you can become.

Add every digit in the birth date, then add the digits of that total until a single digit remains. In the commonly used system followed here, 11, 22, and 33 are retained as master numbers.
Example: October 24, 1990 becomes 1 + 0 + 2 + 4 + 1 + 9 + 9 + 0 = 26, then 2 + 6 = 8. Different numerology traditions sometimes calculate or interpret numbers differently; this page states its method so the result is reproducible.
