Master No. 11

11 is the number of ordination--it means that you were born to walk a SpiritualPath and are held to a higher level of accountability than the ordinary individual.

You may find that when you choose to take the low road you are immediately faced w/ the Karmic repercussions--it can sometimes seem as though others get away with murder--while you are chastised for even the smallest trangression.

You are expected to seek your higher nature in everything--because you exist to set the better example and you will not be loved for it. You have most probably experienced a lot of jealousy from others and have been very bewildered by it.

To be born an 11 is to be born to the calling of the Priesthood--it is a journey of solitude--a journey to discovering your higher purpose.

Peace and Love on the path of your choice...

Blessed be...

I have a question. According to my birthdate, I am a life path 11. But the 7 one makes more sense to me and describes me better, I feel. [And I am the 7th child born on 7/27/52 (!yikes) at 7:14 in the morning.)

I know you can't "choose" your life path number, but the other one seems to "fit" me better!

According to the Numerology I was taught your a number 6.

07/27/1952

You start by condensing the multiple numbers to their lowest sum by adding;
2+7=9
1+9+5+2=17
1+7=8

then you add 7+9+8=24

then reduce (again) by adding 2+4

which equals 6.

Even though you are (technically) a 6--the number 7 can still be a very significant number for you--as it appears twice in your birth date and you were born in the seventh hour of the day.

Some people determine their life path number--based only upon their name--so you will find many different points of view concerning this topic.

Peace and Love on your path to doing your own research and forming your own opinions...

LadyTerra--

See this is what confuses me. When Lynn mentioned life paths the other day I went out to the internet to see how it is calculated. There are at least three different methods, each of which yields a different result.

Here is one, and, if I didn't do my math wrong, this one comes out a 7 for me. [But I keep remembering my mother doing numerology and telling me I was an 11.] I did find one method in which that's what it was.

Determining Your Life Path Number

Your Life Path number is derived from the sum total of the digits that make up your birth date. Begin by converting the month, day, and birth year to *single digits and adding them together. The total sum is further reduced by adding the remaining digits together until a *single digit is obtained.

[*The exception to this rule is with the 'Master Numbers' 11 and 22 - i.e. November the 11th month, birthdays on the 11th or 22nd, or sum totals of 11 or 22. These numbers are not converted to single digits.]

How do you know what method to trust?

IsleWalker - Lora

That is exactly the method I outlined for you and you are a 6--if you choose to use this method.

13 should (also) be added to your list of Master Numbers.

11=Ordination, or the Priest/ess

13=Transformation, or the Phoenix

22=Control, or the Master

However--you must remember to follow your instincts--this is only one facet of who you are--like your Natal Chart (for instance). You still have free will and there are other facets that make-up the total picture of you. Nothing is set in stone.

Peace and Love on the path of your choice...

LadyTerra--

No, I don't think this method is the same. By the method I found:

With a birthdate of 07/27/1952 the process would be:

07= 7
27 = 9
1952 = 27 = 9

TOTAL = 25 = 7

That is not a 6. And I could find at least four other "methods" proscribed on websites--all of which yield different numbers.

What is the basis for the computation? What is the guiding principal behind it? I'm still confused.

IsleWalker - Lora

We are computing differently--even between the two of us--so you can imagine how methods can vary from book to book and over the internet!

I compute 1952 as 1+9=10+5=15+2=17--then reduce further by adding 1+7--which equals 8. 7+9+8=24 and 2+4=6

There is no tried and true method--(instead) my best advice is that you explore each method that crosses your path--until you find the one that feels right to you. I believe that it is very important for you to discover a Numerological System that rings true to you and then you will be following your own instincts.

You can (also) try Numerology that focuses on your life path number as determined by your name--perhaps that might help to clarify things--since you feel out of step with what you have tried thus far.

Try wideninghorizons.com--they have a number/letter chart listed on their homepage.

Peace and Love on the path of your choice...
