Notable Numbers Derived from Your Birth Date

All of the numerology values derived from your birth date deal with elements of timing, whether it’s a lifetime, a year, a four-month period, a month, or a day. You can use these periods of time to look back, look forward, or even look at where you are currently. Numbers calculated using your birth date advise you what to do and when to do it based on certain time periods.

For example, you may find out that this year is about new beginnings, which can mean looking for a new job, changing your appearance, or moving on to a new relationship. The overarching goals can then be broken down into smaller time frames, such as months or days, so you can work to reach your goal. Think of these calculations as your personal highway, guiding you down life’s path.
