Determine Your Angel Number

Calculate Your Angel Number by Birthdate

Your angel number can be calculated using your birthdate. Here's how:

  1. Write out your birthdate in numbers (e.g., September 9, 1989 becomes 09091989).
  2. Add all the digits together (0 + 9 + 0 + 9 + 1 + 9 + 8 + 9 = 45).
  3. If the result is a two-digit number, add those digits together (4 + 5 = 9).

The final single-digit number is your angel number. However, if you get 11, 22, or 33, don't reduce further. These are considered master numbers with special significance.

Your angel number is believed to offer guidance and insight into your life's purpose. Whether you get a stable four or a creative three, these numbers are thought to be messages from unseen guides, nudging you towards your true path.

Identify Your Angel Number from Your Name

Another method to find your angel number is through your name. Here's the process:

  1. Assign each letter a number: A=1, B=2, C=3, and so on up to Z=26.
  2. Convert each letter in your name to its corresponding number.
  3. Add all the numbers together.
  4. If the sum is more than one digit, add those digits together until you get a single digit.

For example, "Emily Rose" becomes:

E(5) + M(13) + I(9) + L(12) + Y(25) + R(18) + O(15) + S(19) + E(5) = 121
1 + 2 + 1 = 4

The resulting number is your angel number. As with the birthdate method, 11, 22, and 33 are considered master numbers and shouldn't be reduced further.

This number is thought to reveal aspects of your personality, hidden talents, or life challenges. It's seen as a cosmic guide, offering insights into your true nature and potential path in life.

As you explore these mystical numbers, remember that they're believed to be more than just figures. Each digit is thought to carry a message, gently guiding you towards your unique path in life.

"Most of what I see is that they bring confirmation and empowerment," Novalee Wilder, professional numerologist, tells USA TODAY. "I think lots of people are looking for signs. But sometimes, there's like a fork in the road."

Angel numbers can appear anywhere in your daily life – on clocks, receipts, license plates, or even in your dreams. Pay attention to where you see them and what's happening in your life at that moment to comprehend the full scope of their meaning.

Remember: The interpretation of angel numbers is subjective and deeply personal. Trust your intuition as you navigate the world of numerology and spiritual guidance.
