How the life path number is calculated
Reduce your birth month, day and year to a single digit each, add the three results and reduce again. The numbers 11, 22 and 33 are called master numbers and are not reduced further.
Example, 1990-08-22: month 8; day 22 stays 22 (master number); year 1+9+9+0 = 19, then 1+9 = 10, then 1 = 1. Then 8 + 22 + 1 = 31, and 3 + 1 = 4. This person is a life path 4.
