The Life Path Number

The Life Path is the sum of the birth date. This number represents who you are at birth and the native traits that you will carry with you through life. First, convert the month to a single number or a master number (November stays 11 rather than 2).
Next, add the total digits of year and reduce this sum to a single digit or master number. The individual digits representing the month, day, and year, be they single digits or master numbers, are then added together, as necessary to reduce the sum once again to a single digit 1 through 9, or to the numerology "master numbers," 11 or 22. These master numbers, as components of the date or as a final result, are not reduced any further.
Example: If a person was born on November 12, 1972 (11-12-1972), add the month 11 to the day 12 (1+2=3) plus the year 1972 (which reduces to 19, then to 10 and finally to 1). Then the total of the month, day, and year is 11+3+1=15; 1+5=6. This date is a 7 Lifepath.
