Expression Number (Destiny Number)

Definition

Also called the destiny number, it is the sum of every letter in your full name as given at birth, converted with a letter chart. Where the life path is the road, expression is the vehicle: the abilities you bring to it.

Common questions

Should I use my married name?

Numerologists use the full birth name for core numbers; a current name shows how its energy is modified.

What if my name is not in Latin letters?

Write it in Latin transliteration; the letter charts are defined for the Latin alphabet.
