Numerology is an ancient method of analyzing one self and one’s life’s directions and gain guidance on the basis of numbers and their vibrations. To do that, one must construct, what is known as, a Numerology Chart.
A Numerology chart includes several numbers that are calculated on the basis of two sets of data: your name and your date of birth. It is with the help of this data that your Numerological calculations are made.
Let us look at the various components of a typical Numerology chart:
Name Number / Expression Number
According to Numerology, all the alphabets in the English language have been assigned numerical values. They are:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
A B C D E F G H I
J K L M N O P Q R
S T U V W X Y Z
The Name Number or the Expression Number is the sum total of the entire name, reduced to a single digit.
It describes how you interact with other people, how you express yourself and where your talents are.
Motivation Number
This is the sum total of the numerical values assigned to all the vowels (a, e, i, o and u) within the name, reduced to a single digit. This explains the motive behind the decisions that you take and the reasons behind how you act.
Inner-Self Number
This is the sum total of the numerical values assigned to all the consonants within the name, reduced to a single digit. This describes what you are all about from within, how you look at yourself, and what your first impression may be like on other people.
Karmic Lessons
These are the lessons you are supposed to learn in this lifetime. The Karmic Lesson Number(s) are those numbers which are completely absent from your name.
Subconscious Response Number
This describes how you will instinctively react in an emergency. To find this number, subtract the number of Karmic Lessons from the number 9.
Hidden Tendencies
The Hidden Tendencies Number(s) are those which are present in your name in large amounts – i.e., the number appears several times in your name. This means that you are likely to go overboard with the qualities or tendencies that are described by that number.
Destiny Number
This is the sum total of your date of birth reduced to a single digit. This number shows you what is the ruling force in your life, and what you must do so as to achieve harmony in your life.
Birth Number
This is the sum total of your day of birth, reduced to a single digit. This number shows you what influences are prevalent in your life.
Life Cycles
This is the calculation of the inherent cycles of one’s life. There are totally 3 Life Cycles, according to Numerology.
First Cycle:
This is the sum of your month of birth, reduced to a single digit. This cycle lasts from the time of your birth till you attain maturity. To find out when this cycle ends, subtract your Destiny Number from 36 and then add 1 to the result.
Second Cycle:
This is the sum of your day of birth, reduced to a single digit. This cycle lasts for 27 years after the First Cycle has ended.
Third Cycle:
This is the sum total of your year of birth, reduced to a single digit. This cycle lasts from where the Second Cycle ends till the rest of your life.
Turning Points
This describes the events that may occur during a given Life Cycle. There are 4 Turning Points.
First Turning Point:
This is the sum total of the day of birth and month of birth, reduced to a single digit. It lasts during the time of your First Cycle.
Second Turning Point:
This is the sum total of the day of birth and year of birth, reduced to a single digit. It begins where the First Turning Point ends, and goes on for 9 years.
Third Turning Point:
This is the sum total of the First and Second Turning Points, reduced to a single digit. It begins where the Second Turning Point ends, and goes on for 9 years.
Fourth Turning Point:
This is the sum total of the month of birth and the year of birth, reduced to a single digit. It starts where the Third Turning Point ends, and goes on till the rest of your life.
Challenges
These describe your weaknesses and the hurdles that you will face in life. There are 2 Minor and 1 Major challenge in life.
First Minor Challenge:
Take the day of birth and month of birth, and reduce them to a single digit each. Then subtract the smaller number from the bigger number.
Second Minor Challenge
Take the day of birth and the year of birth, and reduce them to a single digit each. Then subtract the smaller number from the bigger number.
Major Challenge
Take both your challenge numbers, and subtract the smaller number from the bigger number.
Let us take an Example
Now let us look at an example, so that the entire process is clarified even better:
Name Number / Expression Number:
1 + 6 + 8 + 5 (for ‘John’) + 1 + 4 + 9 + 2 + 8 (for ‘Smith’) = 44 and 4 + 4 = 8. Name Number / Expression Number = 8.
8
Motivation Number
The vowels present in the entire name are: ‘o’ and ‘i’, so, 6 + 9 = 15 and 1 + 5 = 6. Motivation Number = 6.
8
Inner-Self Number
The consonants are ‘j’, ‘h’, ‘n’, ‘s’, ‘m’, ‘t’ and ‘h’, so, 1 + 8 + 5 + 1 + 4 + 2 + 8 = 29 and 2 + 9 = 11 and 1 + 1 = 2. Inner-Self Number = 2.
9
Karmic Lessons
In the entire name, the numbers 3 and 7 are absent. Karmic Lessons are 3 and 7.
4
2,6,8,9
Subconscious Response
There are 2 Karmic Lessons. 9 – 2 = 7. Subconscious Response Number = 7.
5
Hidden Tendencies
In the entire name, the numbers 1 and 8 are present the most. Hidden Tendencies are 1 and 8.
0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8
Destiny Number
16 April 1982 is the date of birth. 1 + 6 + 4 + 1 + 9 + 8 + 2 = 31 and 3 + 1 = 4. Destiny Number = 4.
4
Birth Number
Day of birth is 16. 1 + 6 = 7. Birth Number = 7.
7
Life Cycles
First Life Cycle
Month of Birth = April = 4. 36 – 4 (Destiny Number) = 32 + 1 = 33. First Life Cycle is 4, and lasts from 1982 to 2015 (till age 33).
4 | 1982 | 2015 | 33
Second Life Cycle
Day of birth is 16. 1 + 6 = 7. Second Life Cycle is 7, and lasts from 2015 to 2042 (27 years after First Cycle ends).
7 | 2015 | 2042 | 27
Third Life Cycle
Year of Birth is 1982; 1 + 9 + 8 + 2 = 20 and 2 + 0 = 2. Third Life Cycle is 2 and lasts from 2042 to the rest of his life.
2 | 2042 to the rest of the life
Turning Point
First Turning Point
Month of Birth = 4, Day of Birth (reduced) = 7. 7 + 4 = 11 and 1 + 1 = 2. First Turning Point is 2 and lasts from 1982 to 2015 (duration of First Cycle).
2 | 1982 | 2015 | 33
Second Turning Point
Day of Birth (reduced) = 7, and Year of Birth (reduced) = 2. 7 + 2 = 9. Second Turning Point is 9 and lasts from 2015 to 2024 (9 years).
9 | 2015 | 2024 | 9
Third Turning Point
First Turning Point = 2 and Second Turning Point is 9. 2 + 9 = 11 and 1 + 1 = 2. Third Turning Point is 2 and lasts from 2024 to 2033 (9 years).
2 | 2024 | 2033 | 9
Fourth Turning Point
Month of birth = 4, and Year of Birth (reduced) = 2. 4 + 2 = 6. Fourth Turning Point is 6 and lasts from 2033 to the rest of the life.
6 | 2033 to the rest of the life
Challenges
First Minor Challenge
Month of Birth = 4, Day of Birth (reduced) = 7, and 7 is greater than 4. So 7 – 4 = 3. First Minor Challenge is 3.
3
Second Minor Challenge
Day of Birth (reduced) = 7, and Year of Birth (reduced) = 2. 7 is greater than 2. So 7 – 2 = 5. Second Minor Challenge is 5.
5
Major Challenge
First Minor Challenge = 3 and Second Minor Challenge is 5. 5 is greater than 3. So 5 – 3 = 2. Major Challenge is 2.

Hopefully, with this example, the process of making a numerology chart has become clearer.
