What is an Expression Number?
The Expression Number, sometimes called the Destiny Number, is a fundamental element in numerology. It is derived from the letters in your full birth name and offers deep insight into your personality, strengths, and the path you are meant to follow in life.

How to Calculate Your Expression Number
Calculating your Expression Number is a fun and enlightening process. Follow these simple steps to uncover your unique number:
Step 1: Write Your Full Birth Name
Write your full birth name exactly as it appears on your birth certificate, including first, middle, and last names.
Step 2: Assign Numbers to Each Letter
Each letter corresponds to a number based on the Pythagorean numerology chart:
Numerology Chart
A, J, S = 1 B, K, T = 2 C, L, U = 3 D, M, V = 4 E, N, W = 5 F, O, X = 6 G, P, Y = 7 H, Q, Z = 8 I, R = 9
Step 3: Calculate the Sum of Each Name
Convert each letter in your full name into its number equivalent and add them together. Do this separately for your first, middle, and last names.
Step 4: Reduce Each Name Total to a Single Digit or Master Number
Reduce each sum by adding the digits together until you get a single digit (1-9) or a Master Number (11, 22, or 33). For example, if your name total is 56, add 5 + 6 = 11 (which is a Master Number, so you keep it).
Step 5: Add the Reduced Numbers Together
Add the single digits or Master Numbers from your first, middle, and last names together.
Step 6: Reduce the Final Total
Reduce the sum to a single digit or Master Number. This final number is your Expression Number.
Example Calculation
Let’s calculate the Expression Number for the name Jane Marie Doe:
J A N E M A R I E D O E 1 1 5 5 4 1 9 9 5 4 6 5 Sum First Name: 1 + 1 + 5 + 5 = 12 → 1 + 2 = 3 Sum Middle Name: 4 + 1 + 9 + 9 + 5 = 28 → 2 + 8 = 10 → 1 + 0 = 1 Sum Last Name: 4 + 6 + 5 = 15 → 1 + 5 = 6 Add sums: 3 + 1 + 6 = 10 → 1 + 0 = 1 Expression Number = 1
