1: Your Life Path Number
ОглавлениеThis is the number you were born with. It is like a code that you can refer to time and again as you go through your life. With it, you’ll know if you’re doing what you are meant to be doing. As it’s based on the date of your birth, it’s the most important number of all, for it can never change. Your Life Path Number tells you what you need to do in your life so that you can fulfil your destiny. The word ‘destiny’ is really the same as ‘destination’ or ‘path’. When we’re on the right path, we’re sure to get to the right destination! The secret is to find out what that path is, and the first step is to find out your Life Path Number. The Life Path Numbers are numbers 1 to 11. What each number means is shown further on.
It’s simple: just write down your full birth date and add up all the figures. Look at the following examples to see how it works. The chart below shows the months of the year and their numbers.
January | 01 |
February | 02 |
March | 03 |
April | 04 |
May | 05 |
June | 06 |
July | 07 |
August | 08 |
September | 09 |
October | 10 |
November | 11 |
December | 12 |
Example 1:
Amy was born on the 16th of December 1960. Write down the numbers of her birth date as below:
Now add them up, two digits at a time:
(Note, when two numbers add up to the number 10, it becomes a number 1, because 10 breaks down as a 1 and a 0: 1 + 0 = 1.)
So that final figure, 8, is Amy’s Life Path Number.
Example 2:
Jack was born on the 24th of April 1943. Once again, set out the numbers as shown below, and add them up two digits at a time:
So Jack’s Life Path Number is 9.
Example 3:
Sarah was born on the 12th of March 1974. As we see below, her numbers require an extra piece of addition. This is because the last two digits in 1974 – that is, 7 and 4 – add up to 11. Because this is not a single number, we must add these two numbers together. 1 + 1 = 2. So on the second line, the number 2 appears, rather than the number 11 (as you can see in the box below).
Sarah’s Life Path Number is 9.
Now work out your own Life Path Number following the method above. As you now know, that final digit is your Life Path Number. Remember to add up the full date, such as 1948, not just ’48. Always write out the numbers in sets of 2 digits and add them up in a downward pattern as shown above, like an arrow pointing downward.
The best way to show your Life Path Number is to put it into a special symbol which is like the head of an arrow pointing down, for example:
This shows that you came down from heaven onto the earth. You brought with you a ‘blueprint’ or ‘map’ to follow which is set out in your Life Path Number. Now all you have to do is find out what it is that you’re meant to be doing by learning what each number means.
