Calculating Your Soul Number
The vowels in your name, along with their numeric values, combine to disclose your Soul Number. When calculating, remember that Y or W aren’t used as vowels—only A, E, I, O, and U. In the following steps, I walk you through how to calculate your Soul Number.
1. Print
each letter of your full name, exactly as it appears on your birth certificate.
It’s important to leave some space above your name, because that’s where the
numeric values of the vowels are written.
2. On
the top line, place the numeric value of every vowel (A, E, I, O, and U).
Remember: A is 1, E is 5, I is 9, O is 6, and U is 3.
3. Now
add up all of the numeric values of the vowels and reduce to a single digit.
You can either add the numbers horizontally all the way across the entire name
or, if it’s easier for you, add the first, middle, and last names separately
and then add the sums together—whichever way it’s done, you get the same
result. That number is your Soul Number.
4. Write
your Soul Number, also known as your heart’s desires, in the heart.
Here’s how this process is applied to the name
of former president Dwight David Eisenhower. I’ve provided the two ways
Eisenhower’s name can be added, so you can judge which way is right for you.
I first entered Eisenhower’s name in the chart.
I then inserted the values of the vowels at the top of the chart.
Whatever way you add it, Eisenhower had a Soul Number of 4. When calculating your Soul Number, you also have the option of “casting out” or ignoring the nines. Here’s how the calculation for Eisenhower’s Soul Number looks when doing so.
