To calculate a life path number, all you need to do is add the value of your numerical birthdate, however, calculating your destiny number is a little trickier. First, you have to figure out the numerical equivalent of each letter in your full name (first, middle, last). According to Allure, 1 = A, J, and S; 2 = B, K, and T; 3 = C, L, and U; 4 = D, M, and V; 5 = E, N, and W; 6 = F, O, and X; 7 = G, P, and Y; 8 = H, Q, and Z; 9 = I and R.
After you figure out the value of each letter, you must then add them up to get a total for each name. Each respective total should then be reduced to a single digit, and then added all together. Subsequently, you reduce that remaining value to single digit value UNLESS you're left with an 11 or 22, which do not get reduced further. To put this into practice, we will use Jacqueline Kennedy as an example. The formula for her first name would look like 1+1+3++8+3+5+3+9+5+5=43, with 43 being reduced to 4+3=7. Her last name would look like 2+5+5+5+4+7=33, with 33 being reduced to 3+3=6. We then add up those totals, so that 7+6=13, with 13 being reduced to 1+3=4. Therefore, Jacqueline Kennedy's destiny number is 4.
