Numerology 101: Discover the Hidden Code Within You
Discover how the ancient power of numbers can help you better understand your life.
Hello number seeker,
Have you ever seen the same number again and again—like 11:11 or 333—and wondered why?
Or felt like life had patterns you couldn’t explain?
Numerology might hold the answer.
At its heart, numerology is the study of how numbers carry energy. These energies shape who we are, guide our choices, and connect us to something bigger. Numbers aren’t just about math—they are the language of your soul.
What Is Numerology?
Numerology is an ancient system that helps you understand life through numbers. People from cultures like Babylon, Egypt, and Greece used numbers for more than counting. They believed numbers had special meaning and power.
The most well-known name in numerology is Pythagoras, a Greek thinker who helped shape the system we still use today.
Numerology teaches:
Every number has a special energy (a vibration)
That energy affects your thoughts, traits, and life path
Your name and birthdate reveal the numbers that guide your journey
Key Numbers in Numerology
Here are three key numbers that form your personal roadmap:
Life Path Number
This number is the most important one in your chart. It comes from your birthdate. It shows your life’s mission, gifts, and challenges.
Expression Number
This number is based on your full name at birth. It shows your true talents and how you express your inner self.
Soul Urge Number
This number is based on the vowels in your name. It shows what your heart longs for—your deepest desires.
Each number has its own meaning. When you learn them, you gain insight into who you are and how to live in alignment with your truth.
How to Find Your Life Path Number
Let’s walk through an example. Suppose your birthday is March 15, 1987.
Month: March = 3
Day: 15 → 1 + 5 = 6
Year: 1 + 9 + 8 + 7 = 25 → 2 + 5 = 7
Now add: 3 + 6 + 7 = 16 → 1 + 6 = 7
So your Life Path Number is 7.
Note: If your final number is 11, 22, or 33, don’t reduce it. These are called Master Numbers. They carry a stronger spiritual energy.
