Numerology: Find Your Power Number

What’s Your Number for Personal Power?

Your Power Number also known as the Goal/Reality Number reflects the energy available to you to build your career and to accomplish your goals in life. In other words, it’s how you make a difference in the world and find satisfaction in life.

Find Your Birth Path Number

To calculate your Power Number, first use your birth date to find your Birth Path Number:

Example: August 4, 1961 = 8+4+1+9+6+1 = 29. Break that down to 2+9 = 11. Further break that down to 1+1 = 2. Your Birth Path Number is 2. Now, calculate yours.

Calculate Your Name

You then calculate your full birth name as it appears on your birth certificate, applying a numeric assignment to each letter and adding them together.

Letters to number are this simple:

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

Example: Barack Hussein Obama II =

[Most modern systems disregard Jr., II, III, etc. as part of the name.]

Barack: 2+1+9+1+3+2 = 18, 1+8 = 9
Hussein: 8+3+1+1+5+9+5 = 32, 3+2 = 5
Obama: 6+2+1+4+1 = 14, 1+4 = 5

Next, take all the numbers together: 9+5+5 = 19, 1+9 = 10. His Destiny Number is 1 (Zero doesn’t count.). Now, calculate yours.

Combine your Birth Path Number and your Destiny Number to get your Power Number. Make sure it is reduced to a single digit (same process as above). You should reach a number from 1-9.

To calculate your Master Number, take the two digits from the second to last step of calculating your Destiny Number. So in the example above, the Master Number would be 19. It could also appear as 19/1.

As master numbers 11, 22 and 33 are considered very important numbers in numerology and are often referred to as 11/2, 22/4 and 33/6. People with these numbers have a special ability and challenge to fulfill and are often quite significant figures in life.

Power Number Meanings

Power 1

You are action-oriented and highly focused on your goals. Others count on you for protection in difficult circumstances. If you are a 10/1, you are more focused on the structure that makes things happen. If you are a 19/1, you integrate a way of life that is ending with the new one beginning.

Power 2

You are the person who must bring opposing people and groups together to find a common ground in order to bring success. You think about special gifts and how they might work to connect with others. This is particularly emphasized with those have an 11/2 vibration.

Power 3

Creative flow is essential to your success in life. This may be the flow of life as a loving mother or father, a devotion to the arts, or a dedication to the bounty and beauty of our planet. Rebirth is part of your success story through your inventive efforts that recreate a part of you.

Power 4

You love composition and revere the important structures of family, organization and government. You are practical in your approach to these forms of life and are effective working in a material way to serve yourself and others. Those with a strong 22/4 are often extremely powerful individuals in business or government.

Power 5

You success story is through being the innovator, the improvisational actor in the theater of life. You shine among friends with your unconventional approach and can be incredibly successful when you manage these talents well. If you have a strong 14/5 or 23/5, you have a talent to reinvent yourself to meet any situation at hand.

Power 6

You are devoted to relationships in all forms. You are beloved for all that you do as a lover, a parent, a nurse or doctor—someone who creates in a hand’s-on manner. If 15/6 is strong in your numbers, you are required to let go of others, who return with greater love. The 33/6 vibration brings very selfless teachers who can master life.

Power 7

You are constantly creating intellectually and bring whole new ways of thought to others. You may find your calling as a spiritual leader or other vocation known for deeper and higher thought. Your illumination of others requires breaking old thought patters, particularly if 16/7 is strong for you.

Power 8

8 is a highly desirable, beloved number to the Chinese culture. Seeking and achieving this power number requires that you recognize and become a part of the eternal flow, as 8 serves as the symbol for eternity. This is often the number of great leaders. Those resonating to the 17/8 can find incredible joy in life.

Power 9

Your Power Number offers you awareness of wholeness as a human. A particular stage of your karmic path is nearing completion. You achieve this by enlightening others through your personal experiences. If you have a strong 18/9, you may experience a “dark night of the soul” just prior to an amazing new life.

    I followed the instructions and identified my master number. I have never had a numerology reading, I was surprised that even in a general since how accurate the summation of the numbers were. Yasmina, thanks for the tip. I may call you one day in order to receive more detailed information based on my power number. Have a great day.

    i suspect you think you explained this well. but you can see from the comments, that your explanation is confusing. the confusion begins here: To calculate your Master Number, take the two digits from the second to last step of calculating your Destiny Number. So in the example above, the Master Number would be 19. It could also appear as 19/1.

    looking at the comments, i can see it’s not me. it’s a lot of us. so it’s confusing.

    I have a question~ What did our Master number have to do with this? All the different types of numbers we had to calculate was enough without adding another area that we did nothing with here. Also, let me get this straight…Date of birth broken down = Birth path #, Letters of our name given numeric values = Destiny #, Power # is final breakdown of path and destiny #, and our Master # is the step before totally breaking down our Destiny #; is this correct? I’d like to make sure of the calculation areas. Thank you so much,
    Respectfully,

    Interesting article. I have had my name changed so I no longer use the name on my birth certificate. I calculated my number with both my given name and chosen name.

    I was surprised to find that back when I used my given name (which gave me a number of 2) the description given for 2s seemed appropriate.

    Now that I use my chosen name (which gave me a number of 7) I find that I have changed and I do fit the info given for 7s.

    I don’t know if this is consistent with numerological theory or not, but it was interesting enough that I thought I would share.

    Look to Jess Christ for your salvation, there is no other way. Depend not on man and physic readings because it is of the devil. Only God knows the future. Save yourself by faith in Jesus alone. I was down for the count, blood pouring out and my body torn up by a exploring roadside explosion in Iraq, I cried out to Jesus and two angels appeared preventing me from dying then and there. Jesus is the answer, not physic readings and false predictions. Hear me for your own sake.

    Aloha Yasmina,
    I am Russian, was born in Russia. I assume I mast calculate my numbers using Russian alphabet.
    I got my name in Russian language when I was born and if I calculate it in English, the different number comes up, be cause of a different spelling. So what do you think?

    Thank you,
    Natalia Gonzales
