Your karmic number interpretation tells you what you need to do in order to correct your actions from previous lives. It can also help provide invaluable instruction as to what to do so that you can reap the rewards of the seeds that you sow in this life.

To divine your karmic number, you must first add together all of the letters of your full birth name.

For example, let’s take the example of actor Brad Pitt, whose full name is William Bradley Pitt.

Using the chart below we would take all of the letters of his name and assign them the numerical equivalents as designated on the chart below.

A J S 1
B K T 2
C L U 3
D M V 4
E N W 5
F O X 6
G P Y 7
H Q Z 8
I R 9

The resulting equation for William Bradley Pitt would look like this:

5+9+3+3+9+1+4+2+9+4+3+5+7+7+9+2+2 = 84

This number would then be redid to a single digit in the following manner:

8+4 = 12

1+2 = 3

Therefore Brad Pitt’s Karmic Number would be 3.

Your Soul Number, which defines your very essence or heart’s desire, is calculated using the vowels in the name that appeared on your birth certificate.

This reading describes what you value or want most in life. This is often very different from what your Life Path number (that represents who you are from birth) or your Destiny number (that represents your potential) says about the self.

First of all, eliminate all the consonants from your birth name by adding together the numerical equivalents displayed on the chart below.

A 1
E 5
I 9
0 6
U 3

For instance, let’s take Pamela Anderson, born Pamela Denise Anderson.

First we would eliminate all the consonants from her name. The result is

aea eie aeo

We would then add the number equivalents of all these letters together and reduce them to a single digit as in:

1+5+1+5+9+5+2+5+6 = 39

3+9 = 11

1+1 = 2

Pamela Anderson’s is a master number 11 as well as a 2 so she would read the interpretations for booth as described below.

Your personality number describes how you have shaped your self-expression so that you can survive and thrive in society. Sometimes this number is interpreted as being the mask that you wear in public. Many people are surprised to discover that their personality number varies greatly from the “real you” that is expressed by Life Path, Destiny and Soul numbers.

To divine your personality number you must first take your name and reduce it down to all of its consonants.

For the purposes of an example, let’s use the name of Michael Joseph Jackson. Reduced to its consonants Michael Jackson’s birth name is reduced to:

Mchl Jsph Jcksn

Using the chart below you would then find the numerical equivalents of all of these letters and add them all together.
.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
- B C D – F G H -
J K L M N – P Q R
S T – V W X Y Z

Mchl Jsph Jckson becomes the equation:

4+3+8+3+1+1+7+8+1+3+2+5 = 46

This number is reduced down to a single digit by adding 4+6 = 10

And then 1+0 = 1

Michael Jackson’s Personality Number is a one.

Your Destiny Number, which describes all of the talents and potentials that are at your disposal in this lifetime, is calculated from the letters that compose your full birth name. This is not your married name, but rather the name that is found written in full on your birth certificate. If your name is misspelled on your birth certificate, use that to configure your destiny number.

The interpretations of your Destiny Number below are an indication of the things that you need to live up to or accomplish in this lifetime. Unlike the Life path Number, which is more about your limitations due to your ancestry or physicality, this calculation offers you a glimpse of what opportunities should be available to you as you travel the Life Path. The value of your Destiny Number is that it shows you what you are truly capable of or what you should look for when it comes to realizing your highest potential.

To calculate your Destiny number treat each of your names separately and add up the values according to the conversion chart below.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
A B C D E F G H I
J K L M N O P Q R
S T U V W X Y Z

For instance if your name is Britney Jean Spears your numbers would add up and reduce to

Britney 2+9+9+2+5+5+7 = 39
3+9 = 11
1+1=2
Jean 1+5+1+5 = 12
1+2 = 3
Spears 1+7+5+1+9+1 = 24
2+4 = 6

You would then add up the three sums that represent each of the three names. In Britney Spear’s case, the equation is:

2+3+6 = 11

All double digits are reduced to a single number by adding them together. Britney is a master number 11. However for the purposes of the destiny reading her double-digit number would also be reduced to:

1+1 = 2.

As Britney is both an 11 and a 2, she would read both interpretations as outlined below.

The Life Path is determined by the sum that is arrived at after reducing your birth date by adding digits together. This number represents the traits and talents that you were born with and the probable journey you will take during your lifetime.

First convert the month you were born in to a single number. Let’s use Angelina Jolie Voight who was born in June 4, 1975 as an example.

First convert the month to a single number or master number. Note that when calculating months, double digit months such as September, October November and December do not reduce down to a single digit. For example November which is the 11th month equates to the number 2 after you add 1+1 together.

Angelina Jolie’s birthday does not reduce down to a single digit. Her birth month is the sixth month of the year. Her month number is 6.

Your next step is to convert your day of birth to a single digit. For instance, if you were born on the 17th then you would add 1 and 7 together to reduce the number to 8. If you were born on the 29th you would reduce to the master number 11. In that case, further reduce the number to 1.

Angelina Jolie’s birthday does not have to be reduced as she was born on the 4rth, so her number is 4.

Next, add the total digits of the birth year and reduce them to a single number. Jolie’s birth year is 1975 so you would add 1+9+7+5 to arrive at a sum that represents the year number. In Jolie’s case the year is the master number 22. This would be reduced to simply 2.

Now add the month sum, birth sum and year sum together. For Jolie it would be:

6+4+2 = 12

If you get a double digit, as is the case with Angelina Jolie, reduce the number down further.

1+2 =3

Angelina Jolie’s Life Path number is a 3.

Reduce your own birthday down to a single number and then find the interpretation below that describes your journey. Those configurations that also result in a master number such as 11, 22 or 33 should read the life path prediction for that number as well. For instance if your birthday reduces to 22 and then down to a 4, then you should read the interoperations for both the numbers 4 and 22.
