Numerology is a wonderful tool for discovering and finding your destiny in life.
“My passion is to paint every day without judgment.” – Greer Jonas
Do you think you are truly following your life’s purpose and feeding the passion within? If not, then finding your destiny numerology number can direct you towards success and true joy.
Finding your destiny numerology number formula
To find your life purpose or destiny numerology number, you calculate the sum of your birthday digits. month + day + year.
To have an accurate calculation, add each number separately.
Example: Meryl Streep (born, June 22, 1949): 6+2+2+1+9+4+9=33. Your destiny is a 33/6.
33 is a master number (when the double-digit has the same number). The 33 is the mastery of creativity and self-expression in every form, be it acting, art, music, and speaking. The 6 is all about compassion and service. Doesn’t this describe Meryl Streep? She is an award-winning actress that also is full of heart.
Everyone does not meet their life purpose 100% of the time, especially if it is a master number. We are here to learn our lessons. We can use these lessons to strengthen our lives, or we can feel victim to “why me?” It is all about choice. And you can flip the switch at any moment in the day. One thing you can trust, even if it only lasts for an hour, when you are feeling satisfied, joyful and/or inspired, you are meeting your life purpose.
Finding your destiny or life purpose number through numerology
Formula: Birthday Month + day + year (remember to add each number separately to allow for a possible master number) There are no two people with the same destiny that approach life the same way. Even twins, born within minutes of each other with the same family seek their destiny differently.
For example, all 5’s are not alike, destined for fame. What you do with your life is up to you. That said, here are a few essential characteristics for each destiny numerology number. Once you have calculated your destiny numerology number, take a look at the themes and lessons below.
Note: if you do not feel aligned with your destiny numerology description, ask yourself, what is the shadow or lesson about the number that would help me in life?
