Numerology is the study of numbers as meaningful constructs related to human consciousness. Numbers occupy our lives in many ways, starting with number values associated with the letters of words, especially our names.
We have the numbers of our birthday, month, and year. Most countries have a number sequence for citizens (in the United States, it is the 9-digit Social Security Number or SSN). Most of us have a phone number; if we drive a car, we have a number plate. Each word and sequence of numbers can be reduced to a number between 1 and 9, and each of those numbers has spiritual meaning.
This article will explore the number meaning of the specific day of your birth, numbers 1 to 31.
The calculation of your full date of birth (mm/dd/yyyy) is known as your life path number. In my case, I was born 04/12/1968, making my life path number a 31, which reduces down to a 4. The 4 is considered a number representing foundations, solidity, reliability, and responsibility. My day of birth is 12, which reduces down to a 3, which represents hard work, persistence, and service.
While the goal of numerology calculations is to get to the single-digit value, Morris Goodman, in his book Modern Numerology, provides a meaningful explanation of each day of birth without reducing the two-digit days to a single digit. In my case, a person born on the 12th day of the month has “a charming effect on people and Midas touch on situations” (34).
