Life Path number
Life Path 1: The Initiator
Life Path 1 is about independence and starting things. It learns by leading, and its lesson is that strength includes letting others help.
Your Life Path is the sum of every digit in your birth date, reduced until one digit is left. 11, 22 and 33 are kept as master numbers.
It is the most quoted number in Pythagorean numerology: the shape of the road more than the destination.
