Frequently asked questions
How is the Life Path Number calculated?
The Day, Month, and Year of your birth date are each reduced to a single digit (or master number 11, 22, 33). These three numbers are then added together and reduced again until a single digit (1-9) or master number remains.
What are Master Numbers in numerology?
Master Numbers are 11, 22, and 33. Unlike other double-digit numbers, they are not reduced further because they carry high energetic vibration, heightened intuition, and great leadership potential.
Can my Life Path Number ever change?
No. Because your date of birth is permanent and fixed, your Life Path Number remains constant throughout your entire life.
