Determining the life number
The life number is calculated from the digit sum of the date of birth.
For example: If someone was born on 10.04.2010, the life number can be determined by adding the individual digits of the entire date of birth and reducing the result to a single-digit number. In our example, this means:
Example life number (LZ) from 10.04.20101 + 0 + 0 + 4 + 2 + 0 + 1 + 0 = 8
Determine the life number of your child and learn more about its concrete meaning in the following descriptions.
The description of the children's life numbers provides a brief insight into the numerological analysis. It should be remembered that a professional numerological personality analysis consists of several personal numbers. Only when all these figures of a child/adolescent/adult have been taken into account is it possible to produce a detailed personality profile or an analysis with concrete and effective assistance.
Life number 1 – Self-confidence and endurance
These children are already bundles of energy as babies. Sensitive, intuitive and strong, they have irrepressible power. They are good observers and have a quick comprehension, are persistent and consistent. They also have a tireless spirit of research, want to understand and grasp everything, are very sensitive and have a strong willpower. They often crave confrontation and do the opposite of what they are told.
The child with the life number 1 is sensitive and a fighter type. It often seeks confrontation and often claims the opposite of what it is told, because it has a very strong will and wants to enforce it. In education, it is important to avoid that this fighting and denying of whatever he is told develops into a pattern in the 1 Series. Therefore, it would make sense, especially when the child is getting older, to always offer him a certain choice. 1er children experience their limits through touch. Also, the physical contact makes her calmer.
Life number 2 and 11/2 – sensitivity and emotional intelligence
This child should be supported in developing his social competence at an early age. It should be encouraged to play with other children, not to withdraw and not to put up with everything from the outside. The same applies to the life number 11/2 and the life number 11 in childhood. Children of two should experience openness, especially in the first years of life, in order to open up and exchange ideas. At the same time, they should realize that it is not advisable to always do everything that others want them to do. If these children develop the pattern of "being good" at an early age, then a kind of inner restlessness arises in them or they somatize it in body language, have stomach or headaches. They have an emotional memory in the body, a certain part of the body or a certain organ, which then simply does not feel well or tend to bedwett. In this context, it is important to train with the child, to communicate and to show his will.
An essential aspect of puberty is also to make sure that these adolescents build and maintain a healthy relationship with their bodies, because young people with this life number often tend to reject their own bodies.

Life Number 3 – Creative Spirit and Liveliness
A child of three has a pronounced need for exercise and play until the age of eight or nine. These children often express difficulties at the beginning of their school career. At the beginning of school, for example, they struggle to adapt, sit down, study and do assignments, because they just want to play. They are and remain children for a very long time, want to experience and learn playfully or do a lot when the achievement of a learning goal is designed in the form of a game. It is imperative to respect this and not be too strict with the children. Of course, they must be taught that certain rules must be observed. From an educational point of view, setting boundaries is important on the one hand, but on the other hand, lightness and play are not negligible.
It is also important in this regard that the parents themselves live a certain lightness and serenity. Because these children feel it very strongly when someone in the family is burdened, because they themselves are very sensitive personalities. If they experience too much seriousness around them, they get into trouble, withdraw or become serious.
It is absolutely essential to encourage children of three in the realization of their abilities and not to stop developing their creative side: painting, making music or dancing, whatever the child or adolescent likes.
Life number 4 and 22/4 – obstinacy and implementation power
A strong perseverance, consistency, discipline and a pragmatic spirit are among the essential traits of this personality. People of 4 are already very determined as a child and have a pronounced stamina. If these children have something in their heads, they will pursue their goal consistently. This personality is amiable, helpful, even obedient and from childhood he has a certain down-to-earthness.
Some of these children live in a world of their own and want to do everything on their own. But sometimes they have exactly the opposite feeling: they don't feel good enough and overwhelmed with what they have to do, and they constantly ask for help.
Often children of four feel unfairly treated, often manifesting a conflict with one or both parents. They need someone at their side who responds to them and talks to them openly without blaming them for what they are doing wrong. Very often it may be that they deliberately do something wrong to get more attention, or do exactly what the parents do not want to be noticed.
Life Number 5 – Lively Spirit and Desire for Freedom
Children with the life number 5 are lively and curious beings who need a lot of variety. They are mentally and physically agile and flexible. You can adapt very quickly to new people, situations and places. These young people are very friendly, open, sociable and open to their peers as well as adults. Among the great strengths of these children are: a clear mind and a very good intuition. You are curious and want to know and experience everything.
In childhood, children with the life number 5 need a lot of exercise. They are very restless, want to know everything, put everything in their mouths, taste everything and eat everything. Children of five need – especially in the first three years – a lot of physical contact. In addition, they need a certain regularity from the family: regular eating and sleeping times give them the feeling of security and a balanced and regular daily rhythm.
The best toys for children of five are those used for motor pedagogy: large balls or those stools and armchairs that children can shape with their hands. Also highly recommended are large toys, a large teddy bear or a slide from the bed, so that the children can be physically active and their room can be their kingdom.
Life number 6 and 33/6 – maturity and need for security
Children with this life number are rational and reliable beings who already possess mental and psychological maturity in early childhood. A familiar environment, clear structures and a regular daily routine offer these children the opportunity to develop according to their nature. These children are realistic and down-to-earth, from an early age they are very determined and hold out until they have achieved what they want. Their natural endurance and stamina are accompanied by willpower and a certain inner security.
In childhood, you have to pay attention to two things in children with the life number 6: First, that this child is not too serious and too adult and takes on too much responsibility; secondly, that this child is not too fixated on the family and the parents and approaches others too little.
It is important to really let these children be children and to motivate them to play again and again. Sometimes children of 6 or 33/6 also have communication difficulties, as they are often more mature than their peers and are not understood by them. As a result, they seem far too serious and have a certain tendency towards perfectionism.
By sending these children out into the world, they can be supported and motivated to play. Children of 6 feel comfortable helping others; they sense what doesn't fit and want to fix it.
Life Number 7 – Meditative Spirit and Acumen
A child with the life number 7 is often precocious, prefers contact with adults and does not like to play. It is therefore essential to convey to this child that play is important. Children of 7 like to ask questions, demand the attention of others and at the same time their willingness to answer their questions. In addition, these children have a certain mediumship, are characterized by their empathy and special perceptions.
Children with this life number should definitely be taken seriously when they say they see or feel something. Visiting places of power or places with special vibrations with them can strengthen this ability. Also, a 7-child needs a lot of attention, an open ear that listens to him, and especially he needs time alone with a parent.
Children of 7 often become independent at an early age. It is important to take these adolescents seriously during puberty, especially if they have special ideas. Furthermore, they should be supported when they try to realize their ideas. At the same time, the Seven are people who seek dialogue. As a parent or guardian, you should take this need into consideration. It is also important to make an effort to ensure that these children and adolescents do not feel isolated, because then they do not feel taken seriously, reject the family and later find little or no access to it.

Life Number 8 – Strength of Character and Life Force
Children with the life number 8 are full of vitality, energy and joie de vivre. Full of self-confidence, they conquer their environment. Their positive attitude as well as their strong innate self-confidence make them persistent and enable them to achieve any set goal.
These children appear full of confidence when parents are able to embrace and nurture their strong personality. They like to be the center of attention and a modest background role is not satisfactory for them. In childhood, the child with the life number 8 touches on the following two topics: Firstly, the child needs an immense amount of movement and secondly, it has a great need for harmony. Accordingly, it is important to clarify conflicts that arise in the family system. If this has happened and the relationship between the parents also fits, the child is doing well. This child is often exhausting – especially in the first years of life – because he is very strong and constantly moving. It takes very little sleep and often keeps parents busy with questions. Moreover, it has a tendency not to do what it is told.
You should set clear boundaries for this child, but at the same time appreciate it – because unfortunately 8-person children are often made small and insecure, just to give them rest. Children of eight are very balanced when their parents are balanced and the family system is clarified.
Life number 9 – empathy and sense of community
Children with this life number are very sensitive and bear responsibility for others. Similar to children of 7, they always feel a lot. These children need someone to approach them, spend time with them, and support them in learning to communicate themselves and their needs. This sharing concerns everything the child wants and thinks, including what he would like to have, since this child also has a tendency to adapt. In addition, this child often wants to be the center of attention. Overall, a balance should be found between the child's need to be the center of attention and the response to the child.
Children with this life number need love and affection, especially in the form of touch. It is very important to allow a lot of contact with nature, with the animals and with other children, because 9-person children show the tendency to be know-it-all and grow up quickly.
If the child shows a mediumistic talent, it is essential to support it, because often these people are suitable for therapeutic and healing professions.
