What is a personality number?

A Personality Number (also known as the “Expression Number” or “Destiny Number” in some systems) in numerology provides insights into how one is perceived by others at first glance, essentially revealing aspects of a person’s personality based upon the numerical value of the consonants in their full name.

To calculate the Personality Number either use the destiny number calculator above or calculate it as follows:

1.Assign a specific number to each consonant in the full name. For this purpose, one typically uses the Pythagorean chart: A=0, B=2, C=3, D=4, E=0, F=6, G=7, H=8, I=0, J=1, K=2, L=3, M=4, N=5, O=0, P=7, Q=8, R=9, S=1, T=2, U=0, V=4, W=5, X=6, Y=0, Z=7

Note: Vowels (A, E, I, O, U, and sometimes Y) are excluded when calculating the Personality Number.

2.Add the numbers associated with each consonant in the full name.

3.Reduce this sum to a single-digit number, unless it results in a master number (11, 22, 33, etc.), in which case, the number remains as a two-digit.

How does changing my name affect my personality number?

When you change your name, especially due to significant life events like marriage or personal choice, it introduces a new energy to your life. While your birth name provides details about your inherent nature and life’s purpose, a new name adds or modifies those energies. However, the original vibrations of your birth name still remain influential.

Can I calculate my personality number using a nickname or a shortened version of my name?

While you can calculate a number using any name, for the most accurate and meaningful results, it’s recommended to use your full birth name. Nicknames or shortened names might provide insights into how you behave in certain circumstances or environments but won’t give the comprehensive view that a birth name does.

How do I calculate my personality number if I have multiple middle names?

Include all your middle names in the calculation. Each letter in your name contributes to your overall personality number, and each has its vibrational energy.

Why only the consonants of the name?

In numerology, your full name is divided into core elements, with each element being represented by a specific number. The consonants of your name describe your Personality Number (external self), while the vowels represent your Heart’s Desire Number (inner self). Together, they provide a complete picture of your soul’s intention and your path in this life.

I’ve recently undergone a name change. Which name should I use?

For an understanding of your inherent traits and life’s purpose, use your birth name. If you want insights into the energies and qualities you’ve added or altered due to a name change, then use that name for calculation. Remember, both names have significance, with your birth name having a more lasting and foundational influence.

Does the spelling of my name matter?

Yes, in numerology, every letter corresponds to a specific number and vibration. Even slight changes in spelling can affect the energy associated with the name.

Do special characters or hyphens in my name affect the calculation?

Special characters typically don’t have numerological values, but the letters around them do. If your name includes a hyphen, include both parts in the calculation.

Remember, numerology offers guidance and insights but should be used in conjunction with other forms of introspection and self-awareness. Always trust your intuition and personal experiences.

Is a life path number and a personality number the same thing?

No, a Life Path Number and a Personality Number are not the same thing in numerology. While both numbers are derived from an individual’s birth name and date of birth and provide insight into different aspects of a person’s life, they represent distinct facets of one’s character and destiny. Here’s a breakdown:

1. Life Path Number:
   • Derived from: Date of birth.
   • Calculation: All numbers in the full date of birth are reduced to a single-digit number, except in cases of the master numbers (11, 22, 33, etc.), which aren’t reduced further. For example, someone born on November 22, 1988 would have the date reduced as 11 + 22 + 1988 = 2021 -> 2 + 0 + 2 + 1 = 5. Thus, the Life Path Number is 5.
   • Significance: The Life Path Number represents the major lessons, opportunities, and challenges a person will encounter during their lifetime. It’s the most important number in a person’s numerology chart and gives insights into the nature of one’s journey through life.
2. Personality Number (sometimes referred to as the “Expression Number” or “Destiny Number” in some systems):
   • Derived from: Consonants in the full birth name.
   • Calculation: Each consonant in the full birth name is assigned a specific number using the Pythagorean chart. The numbers corresponding to the consonants are added together and reduced to a single-digit number, except in cases of the master numbers which are left as they are.
   • Significance: The Personality Number provides insights into how a person is perceived by others when first introduced. It reveals aspects of one’s personality that are immediately apparent to the outer world. It’s like the “first impression” number.

While both numbers provide valuable information about an individual, they address different aspects. The Life Path speaks to major life challenges, purpose, and the journey as a whole, while the Personality Number addresses external perceptions and interactions.
