Short Numerology Seminar - LIFE PATH NUMBER The most important number in your numerology chart is based on the date of your birth, the moment when the curtain goes up in your life. This number is called the Life Path number. It can be compared to the plot of a potential play. The Life Path number gives us a broad outline of the opportunities, challenges, and lessons we will encounter in this lifetime. The Life Path, as is the case with all numbers derived from your date of birth, has to do with the momentum, the direction, of your life. The Life Path is a cycle. Food for thought: This age-old method is founded on the concept that your Life Path is based on your three Period Cycles. Therefore, in order to calculate your Life Path number, you actually calculate your Period Cycles first. Your three Period Cycles are based on your month, day, and year of birth, and represent the early, middle, and later part of your life respectively. Your complete lifes cycle - your Life Path - has all the attributes reflected in the Life Paths number. However, the Life Path is also influenced by the properties and traits revealed in each of these Period Cycles. How to Find Your Life Path number. First, we reduce each unit (month/day/year) of the birth date to a single-digit or a Master number. Next we add each of the resulting digits (or Master numbers) together and reduce the total again to a single-digit. Example: October 12, 1936. October is the 10th month. Reduce 10 to a single-digit. 1 + 0 = 1 The day of birth is 12. We reduce 12 to 3 (1 + 2 = 3) The year of birth is 1936. We reduce 1936 to 1 + 9 + 3 + 6 = 19. 1 + 9 = 10. 1 + 0 = 1. The year 1936 reduces to 1. We now add the resulting single digits. month = 1, day = 3, year = 1. Total is 5 The Life Path number is 5. Another example: November 22, 1911 November is the 11th month. The 11 is a Master number and is not reduced. The 22nd day is also a Master number: 22. The year 1911 reduces to 12, which reduces to 3. month = 11 day = 22 year = 3 -- total = 36 We reduce 36 to 9. The Life Path is 9. INTERPRETATION No: 1 Many of our Generals, corporate leaders, and political leaders are men and women having the Life Path number 1.
