Your Life path number describes the nature of your journey through this life. Calculated from the sum of your birth date, the number represents who you are at birth, and the native traits you will carry with you throughout life.
For our Examples we'll use US president Donald Trump. Born Donald John Trump, 06/14/1946.
To find the life path number, first thing we do is add the month, day, and year together. Reducing it down to a single number, except in the case of a master number (11, 22 or 33). Follow the example below:
06/14/1946
0+6/1+4/1+9+4+6
6/5/20
6/5/2+0
6/5/2
Now, add together the month, day and year to a single digit. Follow the example below:
6/5/2
6+5+2
13
1+3
4
The single remaining digit is your Life Path number. Continue reading below to discover what your life path number means.
