Build Your Numerology Chart Pt 5: How to Calculate Your Birthday Number
A 15-Part Series on Building Your Own Numerology Chart
Welcome back! This is Part 5 of a 15-part series where I’m walking you through how to build your complete numerology chart, one number at a time. So far, we’ve covered your Life Path Number, Destiny Number, Soul Urge Number, and Personality Number.
Today, we’re diving into the Birthday Number (also called the Day Number).
Unlike the other numbers, your Birthday Number is straightforward and easy to calculate. It reveals a special strength, talent, or gift that you were born with—something uniquely yours.
Think of your Birthday Number as a hidden gem within your chart—a talent or strength that you can always rely on, even if it’s not always obvious.
How to Calculate Your Birthday Number
Your Birthday Number is simply the day of the month you were born.
If you were born on a single-digit day (1 to 9), that’s your Birthday Number.
If you were born on a double-digit day (10 to 31), reduce the numbers by adding them together until you reach a single digit or a Master Number (11, 22, 33).
Example Calculation
Born on the 6th? Your Birthday Number is 6.
Born on the 15th? 1 + 5 = 6 → Your Birthday Number is 6.
Born on the 22nd? 22 is a Master Number, so it stays as 22.

Your Birthday Number highlights a unique gift, talent, or strength that you were born with. It often shows up as a natural ability, special skill, or inner power that supports you throughout your life.
