What Your Birth Date Number Reveals

In numerology, every number carries a personality and a ruling planet. Your root number comes from adding up the digits of your birth date until you reach a single digit.

How to calculate it

For example, someone born on the 28th: 2+8 = 10, 1+0 = 1. Root number is 1.

Numbers 1 to 9 — a quick guide

• 1 — leadership, independent thinking (Sun)
• 2 — cooperation, emotionally sensitive (Moon)
• 3 — creativity, strong communication (Jupiter)
• 5 — change-loving, adventurous (Mercury)
• 9 — service-minded, idealistic (Mars)

How to use it

Making key decisions on days that suit your root number, and wearing its associated colour, is said to bring favourable results.
