What Is a Life Path Number in Numerology?

In numerology, your Life Path number is the most important number in your chart. It comes from your full birth date, reduced to a single digit — or one of the master numbers 11, 22, and 33.

Think of it as the through-line of your life: the core personality you were handed, the strengths that come easily, and the same lesson you keep circling back to. It is the number this whole site is built around.

To find yours, add the month, day, and year of your birth and keep reducing until one digit remains. Or skip the math and use the Life Path number calculator above.

What are master numbers?
