How To Calculate Your Soul Urge Number
Calculating your Soul Urge Number is surprisingly easy. Follow these steps:
- Write down your full birth name (first, middle, last) on a single line.
- Pick out the vowels. These are a, e, i, o, u, and y – though y is only counted if it sounds like a vowel when the name is spoken aloud.
- Assign each vowel a numerical value: a=1, e=5, i=9, o=6, u=3, y=7.
- Add together all the vowels in your full name to receive your sum.
- If your sum is more than one digit, reduce it to a single digit by adding the two numbers in the sum together. If your original sum is one of the Master Numbers (11, 22, or 33), there is no need to reduce.
Example of a Soul Urge Number Calculation
For an example of a Soul Urge Number calculation, let’s take the name Alyson Tracy Merkl.
- The vowels in all three of her names combined are A (1), Y (7), O (6), A (1), Y (7), and E (5).
- This becomes the equation 1+7+6+1+7+5, which equals 27.
- Reduce 27 to 2+7, which equals 9.
So, Alyson’s Soul Urge Number is 9!
