Your Destiny Number can help to guide you toward living a life that really matters to you. As a tool to understand your life experiences, your Destiny Number describes ways in which you can best live in order to live up to your fullest potential. We all have experiences that we will pass through. Your own experiences will help to shape the person that you will become.
The Destiny number describes those situations, actions and decisions that you really are compelled to choose for growth in your life. At first, others may more clearly see which decisions are best for you. Consider their wisdom carefully. However, it is always up to you to decide what you really want to do with your life and how you want to live. But, sometimes those close to us can easily identify strengths within us, that we cannot yet see. Your choices and possibilities are limitless. Know that the knowledge that comes from living up to your Destiny Number can be vital to your personal growth.
Destiny Number and Emotions
Your Destiny number can also help to illustrate the general emotions, attitudes, moods, and personal characteristics that you bring into your life and to any situation. For instance, others might be aware of your strong sense of caring, empathy or tolerance and may guide you toward situations which call for a strong and caring individual.
As your Destiny number is tightly linked with your emotions, listening to your emotions can help to alert you when you are not necessarily making choices for your growth and betterment of the world around you. By paying attention to your inner needs, you can feel better about yourself. When you feel stuck, blocked or challenged that can be an indicator that you have strayed off of your path. Being aware of your emotions can also help you to continue to mature as a spiritual individual and lead to the development and expansion of compassion, acceptance, and tolerance too. All of which are important in helping to support and grow strong families, friendships, social networks and communities. Connecting with your inner self, can lead to a better outer world.
Confidence and Comfort
I have found that the greatest degree of inner tranquility comes from the development of love and compassion. The more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being. Cultivating a close, warm-hearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It is the ultimate source of success in life. == Dalai Lama
When you're confident in yourself, then you'll be closer to living up to your own true potential and the potential indicated by your Destiny Number. Whatever Destiny Number you have can be a source of personal motivation. It's like a inner natural talent. For instance, Destiny Number 8 is about ambition and authority, With a Destiny Number 8, you'll learn to value yourself and work with your drive for authority. Of course, authority can come from a position of power, especially within the business world, or it can come from a strong leadership position, especially with the political or educational world.
Balance
Any process of learning about yourself is about balance. Authority has its place, but so does tolerance and acceptance. We are all powerful. We all have a place. We help to build a better world when we utilize our power and strength for the betterment of everyone. It's about accepting that you are part of a connected world. It's about accepting that you are not alone. You're decisions matter, and can dynamically change the world around you. In fact, recent studies that measure happiness show just how connected we really are. The studies show that those people with many close social connections were the happiest.
Each additional happy person (in your social network) makes you happier, -- Nicholas Christakis, a professor of medical sociology at Harvard Medical School
Imagine that I am connected to you and you are connected to others and others are connected to still others. It is this fabric of humanity, like an American patch quilt. Each person sits on a different-colored patch. Imagine that these patches are happy and unhappy patches. Your happiness depends on what is going on in the patch around you, -- Nicholas Christakis
The results from the work of Nicholas Christakis makes it clear that the happier you are, the happier those people connected to you will be. The more you dedicate your life to discovering your true purpose, the more you will help yourself, and the people that you are connected to. Gradually as you become more conscious and alive, the whole world can slowly become awake, alive and connected.

Letter Chart
In Numerology, we use a letter chart to convert our names to a corresponding number. To Calculate your Destiny Number you will simply add up all of the letters in your birth name (or a nickname if you choose). The resulting number is then reduced to a single digit, by adding together its own numbers:
A, J, S = 1
B, K, T = 2
C, L, U = 3
D, M, V = 4
E, N, W = 5
F, O, X = 6

Example:
Paris Hilton : 7 + 1 + 9 + 9 + 1 + 8 + 9 + 3 + 2 + 6 + 5 = 60
(6 + 0) = 6
