Numerology: work out your numbers by hand

The full Pythagorean method on one page: table, steps and examples — plus the honest note on what this language is (and isn’t).

The Pythagorean table

Each letter is worth a number from 1 to 9. With this table and your birth date you can work everything out by hand:

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

Accents change nothing, and non-English letters map to their base letter (ñ counts as n).

step by step

Your life path, step by step

It’s the main number: the background theme of your journey, calculated from the birth date alone. Example with 15 April 1996: reduce each part separately — day 15 → 1+5 = 6; month 04 → 4; year 1996 → 1+9+9+6 = 25 → 2+5 = 7 — then add them: 6+4+7 = 17 → 1+7 = 8. Life path 8.

The one exception: if an 11, 22 or 33 appears in the sums, it is not reduced — those are the master numbers.

The master numbers

11, 22 and 33 are read as intensified versions of 2, 4 and 6: more potential and, at the same time, more demand. An 11 is intuition asking for a channel; a 22 is vision asking for works; a 33 is care asking for scale. Not better or worse than the rest — just higher voltage.

name and vowels

The other numbers

From your full name and the table come three more: the Expression (all letters: your talents), the Soul urge (vowels only: what moves you inside) and the Personality (consonants only: how you come across). And your birth day gives the birthday number, a nuance of the path.

13 · 14 · 16 · 19

Karmic numbers, briefly

If 13, 14, 16 or 19 appear in the intermediate sums, tradition calls them "karmic debts": specific lessons (persistence, moderation, humility, autonomy). Take them as underlinings, never as sentences.

honesty

What numerology is not

Like astrology, numerology is a symbolic language: a game of mirrors for self-reflection, not a science or a prediction machine. If a number doesn’t ring true, your experience wins — always.
