Calculating Your Expression

The Expression is the total of all the letters of the birth name.
-It’s an indication of the destiny or potential of a person, place or thing.
-It reveals your goals in life and your history at the time of your birth. This includes all the evolutionary steps that took place in order that your consciousness could arrive in the form of you.
-The Expression shows your talents, your characteristics, and where more focus is needed to reach your potential.
-Your Expression is how you express yourself and to some degree, why.
-Understand your expression to eliminate your shortcomings, utilize your strengths and to bring balance your life.

Most people also have Minor Expressions. These are the casual names they use socially and any name changes they adopt later in life.The minor expressions modify, support and sometimes accentuate the expression of the original birth name. The original birth name is always the underlying vibration.

If the name on the birth certificate is spelled differently than the spelling used by the parents, it’s usually the parents spelling that represents the actual Expression. However, if the person always uses a different spelling, it will most likely greatly modify the original vibration. A misspelling on a birth certificate does not count, unless it is then used by everyone from birth on.

How to find your Expression:

  • Write out your full name and write the numerological equivalents under each letter of your name.
  • Add the numbers of each name, reducing the sum to a single digit, unless the sum is an 11 or 22, leave these numbers as they are. 11 and 22 are called master numbers.
  • Then, add together the sums of each individual name. Reduce the answer to a single digit, unless the number is an 11 or 22. Leave 11 and 22 as they are.
  • Example:

Janet Aria Simpson
J a n e t A r i a S i m p s o n
1+1+5+5+2 + 1+9+9+1 + 1+9+4+7+1+6+5 =
14 + 20 + 33 =
5 + 2 + 6 =13/4 (1+3=4)
The Expression (vibration of the name) is 4

Lank Peterson
l a n k + Peterson
3+1+5+2 + 7+5+2+5+9+1+6+5 =
11 + 40 =
11 (don’t reduce + 4 (4+0=4) = 15 (add the 1+5 to get a single digit)
The Expression (vibration of the name) is = 6

Your Personal Year Number

You can easily find out what particular underlying focus your year has.
When I talk about the general trends for 2010, I’m referring to the general focus of the year, the one that pertains to everyone. But each person uses that energy in their own special way, Everyone is pretty intuitive about what they need to do in their life, about how to approach things, but a little help along those lines, never hurts!
I know you can have a year that runs smoothly and successfully for you!
According to numerology, everyone’s  life is divided into nine year cycles. When I look at a numerology chart I examine the cycle of years in three ways: first the standard numerological cycle, next, I take into account the Chaldean method of delving into meanings and finally I examine an esoteric study of cycle vibrations. But a lot can be found out with a simple calculation using brief number descriptions. I’ll show you how:
If your Birthday is 22 or 11, add it as that double digit, don’t reduce it to a single digit.
Add your birthday + the month of the year you were born + the actual calendar year.
Your Personal Year is the final single digit number you get when you add all those together.

Example 1: birthday: May 16, and the current year is 2010

  • 5+7+ 2010=   Next reduce the 2010 to a single digit
  • 2+0+1+0= 3   Next add the month, day and the single digit of the year together
  • 5+7+3= 15    Add the 1 & 5 together to make a single digit
  • 1+5=6   The personal year is 6
Example 2: Birthday: April 11, and the current year is 2010
  • 4+11+2010     Don’t reduce the 11 to a single digit, leave it as 11. Reduce 2010 to a single digit
  • 2+0+1+0=3    Next, add your birth month & day and the single digit of the current year together
  • 4+11+3= 18  Next add the 1+8 to make a single digit
  • 1+8=9           Your personal year is 9
1. time of new beginnings, new direction, break away from the past, make adjustments
2. time for cooperation, some limitations to work with which builds confidence for next year
3. possibilities are noticed, optimism is easier, creativity seems natural & projects begun, enlightenment, thorough & idealistic
4. work, details, responsibilities, set down roots, get organized, create stability
5. travel, expansion, new experiences – if all the foundations done in #4, if not, just catch up
6. look to service, work toward career advancement, build new family & friend relationships, re-think priorities
7. withdraw from hustle bustle a little bit, gather or build up inner & outer resources, become an expert, accept, invent or get comfortable with your life purpose and prepare to live it fully. Your life purpose here can be the immediate purpose, don’t stress over this.
8. Big work/activity year. Puts into play all your plans. It’s to be a busy time, lots of balls in the air. If you haven’t planned, or decided upon a goal, just work it now, all can be fine, just reflect, plan & move ahead, without getting hyper. Remember, there’s always more time, cycles repeat, you’re doing fine.
9. Don’t get nervous or anxious, lots of new ideas & plans now, future seems unknown. Just complete what you started as best you can, write down your ideas & find all the positive things you’ve done & learned, there are lots of them. Your nine year cycle is ending and you’re getting ready to begin things in a new way or to begin totally new things.
Do you think your year will be tough to handle? Well, I’ve got a 4 personal year in the midst of a general year calling for personal leadership & optimism & creativity. So, I’m smiling my way through the piles of files . .

if your number is 201-555-7796 =29 then 2+9=11 )do not reduce further)

House & Building Numbers

Your house numbers are important, they certainly affect you and you can use the archetype they represent to your advantage.–Add your house numbers together. If the result is a double digit number, add them together and use the resulting single digit number as the house energy number.  There is an exception: if when you add your house numbers, the result is either 11 or 22, do not reduce them to a single digit number – use them as they are.

If you have a suite or apartment number, don’t add that to the actual building number. Consider the apartment or suite number as a modifier of the house number.
