Making a wish at 11:11, picking lottery numbers to match our childhood address, holding a whole world in your pocket built off of 0s and 1s — numbers massively influence our lives. In numerology, that influence extends to our love lives. We interviewed numerology experts to help you discover if you and your significant other (read: mildly-promising Tinder match, beloved fictional character, celebrity crush) are a match made in mathematical heaven.

Things You Should Know

  • Top numerology compatibilities are life path numbers 1 and 5, 2 and 9, 3 and 1, 4 and 1, 5 and 7, 6 and 2, 8 and 4, and 9 and 6.
  • Add the digits of your birth month, day, and year separately. Combine these sums and reduce the resulting number to a single digit to get your life path number.
  • You and your significant other’s life path numbers reveal your romantic compatibility. Individually, your life path number hints at your personality and purpose.

    First, reduce the month to a single-digit number by adding its digits together. Repeat this process with your day and year of birth. Next, add those three sums together. Reduce this final sum until you reach a single-digit number. [10]
    • Here is an example of finding the life path number for August 17th, 1999:
    • Reduce the month: 0 + 8 = 8 .
    • Reduce the day: 1 + 7 = 8 .
    • Reduce the year: 1 + 9 + 9 + 9 = 28
    • Add the three sums together: 8 + 8 + 28 = 44. Reduce this double-digit by computing 4 + 4 = 8. This birthday’s final life path number is 8.
    • For romantic compatibility, repeat this process for you and your significant other or crush. Then you’ll have both of your life path numbers!
    • Pause calculations if your three sums add up to 11 , 22 , or 33 . These are called master numbers and carry special significance for your life path.

    A life path number may show you certain aspects of your personality or what motivates you to work through challenges. Regarding romantic compatibility, your numerology life path number may reveal your core values and how they would mesh with a potential (or committed) romantic partner. [11]
    • However, having high compatibility doesn’t mean a perfect match in every situation, and low compatibility doesn’t doom your relationship. But insight into your numerology compatibility can help you navigate and communicate through any relationship.
    • Renowned numerologist Camber Hill recommends learning numerology “as a tool to understand your lover and understand your boyfriend, your girlfriend, your daughter, your son, your grandmother. If you understand just a little bit about their blueprint…it makes relationships which is what garner all the good fortune in your life.”

    Your life path number indicates your purpose, while your name number reveals how you’ll achieve your purpose. [18] Your internal compatibility is determined by comparing your name to your life path number. If these two sides of yourself seem at odds, it could mean a rocky road for your goals and life contentment. [19]
    • For example, a life path number 5 loves spontaneity and new experiences. If that person’s name number is a 4, defined by practicality and control, they may have a hard time achieving their life’s purpose of adventure and exploration. [20]
