How to Understand the Numerology of Your Birthday
- 1
  Determine your primary personal number. Start with your numeric birthday. For instance, if your birthday is July 3, your primary number is 3. If your birthday falls on July 11 or 22, you have a "master" number, which has special significance. Check a reference, such as Astrology-Numerology, since meanings can vary (see Resources below).
- 2
  Reduce your numeric birthday if it has two digits (other than 11 and 22) by a formula called digit summing. Simply add the two digits together. If your birthday is July 14, add 1+4=5. Your primary number is 5. If your birthday is July 19, you have to reduce it twice: 1+9=10, and 1+0=1. In that case, 1 would be your primary number.
- 3
  Understand the meaning of your birthday number by consulting your reference. Each of the "core" numbers in numerology, 1 through 9, have traits or powers associated with them. Now that you have your primary personal, or birthday, number, you can get insights into your personality so you can make better decisions. You can also find out about the people you live and work with, so you can improve your relationships too.
