Discover Your Numbers

What do you tell people when they ask you what your number is?

Hint: It would be your name number.

Your name number is referred to as your destiny number. It is one of core numbers in your numerology chart.

The names of the core numbers are destiny, life path, heart's desire, and personality. Information about the energies represented by each of the core numbers is further below.

You'll discover what each of your core numbers are.

Each of the core numbers is important. But there are degrees of importance.

The energies represented by the destiny and life path numbers are the most important. The heart's deire and the personality numbers, slightly less important. The four are the basic, core numbers of numerology charts, the numbers upon which readings are based.

There's a reason why the destiny number is the one to think of as your number.

It's because the destiny number is about you and the life path number is about your experience. Although both of those numbers are of equal importance in your numerology chart, it's the destiny number that's the most about you as a person.

Here is a description of each of the core numbers so you'll know what they represent when you discover yours.

1. Destiny Number

   This number represents the numerology energy that influences the whole person — characteristics, outlook on life, that which makes the individual a unique person. Because it is the most important number that's exclusively about you as a person, the destiny number is referred to as your number.

   The destiny number is calculated from all the letters of the person's name.

2. Life Path Number

   The energy this number represents influences the types of events and circumstances that tend to occur intermittently or persistently as the person lives their life.

   The life path is calculated from the numbers of the person's birth date.

3. Heart's Desire Number

   The energy represented by the heart's desire number determines what is likely the deepest soul urge the person persistently experiences, generally as a low-key tendency that can affect life decisions the individual makes.

   The heart's desire number is calculated from the vowels of the person's name.

4. Personality Number

   The energy represented by the personality number affect a person's approach to life goals and situations. The effects generally are more noticeable to people than are the effects of the rest of the core number energies. Thus, the personality number energy can influence the first impression others get of the person.

   The personality number is calculated from the consonants of the person's name.

Those are the core numbers.

The core numbers are numerology chart positions. The number of positions a numerology chart has depends on the type of numerology reading that was obtained.
