Numerology
Numerology is another powerful way to gain valuable information
about your purpose in life. The date you were born was no accident;
it translates into a blueprint of gifts you came here to give
to the world.
I highly recommend Dan Millman's book, The Life You Were
Born to Live, as an excellent guide to finding your life purpose.
Below you’ll find directions on how to calculate what “number”
you are based on your birth date, plus a summary of the main
attributes and challenges of that number.

How to Calculate Your Number
Write out your birth date numerically, using all four digits
for the year you were born. For example, if you were born on
May 5, 1945 you would write down 05+05+1945. Next figure out
the sum of all these individual digits when added together.
For example, 5+5 +1+9+4+5=29. Then add the digits of this number
together until you reach a single digit. In our example, 2+9=11,
1+1=2, so this person’s birth date would make them a “2.”
