You’re here because your life path number is 11. But wait – how did you get that 11? Was it by adding 2+9, or 3+8? Believe it or not, there are subtle differences between these two paths to 11 that are worth understanding. Both are highly intuitive numbers, but approach life in slightly different ways.
Master Numbers In Numerology
If your birthday adds up to 11, you have not only life path number but master number. There are three master numbers in numerology – 11, 22, and 33. Life path 44 is not considered one, though. Master numbers are amplified versions of the single digit numbers. They’re thought to have special significance or meaning compared to regular life path numbers.
- Master number 11 is associated with intuition, inspiration and visionary abilities. Those with a life path 11 are said to have a spiritual mission in this lifetime. They often see the big picture and have a strong desire to make the world a better place.
- Master number 22 is the most spiritual and spiritual master number, symbolizing power, leadership and manifestation abilities. Those with a life path 22 are here to inspire and influence others in a spiritual way.
- Master number 33 is the most rare and highest expressing the qualities of all the other numbers. Those with a life path 33 are here to serve humanity on a large scale and help raise the consciousness of the planet.
Life Path 11 (2+9)
If you calculated your life path number, and it came out to be 29, that means you’ve got a combination of master number 11 and the energies of numbers 2 and 9.
Having a life path of 11 indicates that you really feel a strong sense of purpose and destiny in your life. You’re here to achieve something big and make an impact in a major way. Though at times you may struggle feeling a bit isolated or like an outsider.
The 2 that’s part of your 29, aka master number 11, means you’re capable of great things whether it’s with someone else like through a partnership, relationship or love actually inspiring you to do great things. You probably want to achieve great things for people, not necessarily because of people.
You view the world a little differently than others, and that can make relating to folks a challenge at times. Especially with that 9 in the 29, you’re sort of like an old wise sage, a true master. You’re insightful, maybe even feel like an old soul. You can really see deep inside things, below the surface.
Your life path number is calling on you to develop your intuition and follow your inner voice. You’re here to share your spiritual wisdom and insights with humanity. Unlike a life path of 38, the 29 is a more unique and powerful path. You can accomplish great things, especially those that will positively influence or help others.
And let’s not forget you’re also known as an inspirational leader, showing you’re here to make a big impact through innovative ideas and humanitarian work. You naturally have charisma, vision, and confidence in your purpose. Again, either your partner or love can inspire your work and purpose, or maybe you want to bring people together.
Also, since 11 is an inherently spiritual number, there’s a good chance you may lead some type of spiritual movement or somehow influence and inspire others through spirituality.
Life Path 11 (3+8)
if you’ve got a life path number 38, you’re super intuitive and sensitive. You’re really here to inspire others and help raise awareness. 38 can be a bit more practical than the number 29, though, which tends to be more spiritual.
Someone with a 29 life path might want to help people grow mentally or spiritually, whereas a 38 is aiming to help with more concrete growth.
38s are also more grounded and common sense. They’re determined to get real results. It’s like a good balance between spiritual ideas and making things happen in the real world. Communication is also a strong suit – people listen to 38s and find them motivating.
And with the number 8 in there, 38’s lives revolve around giving and receiving. Not that they expect something back, but they believe if you do good then good will come to you eventually, however it may appear.
When it comes to spirituality, life path 38s are also spiritual, just like 29s. But 38s either need to study spirituality to really understand it or they may even question it sometimes. For 29s, spirituality comes naturally. 38s have to read about it, study it, and question themselves. Sometimes, they feel like they need “proof.” Later on in life, though, 38s may discover their gifts and start using them.
The Difference Between The Two
For 11/29, those people have amazing creative talents. They’re also incredibly intuitive and spiritual, and good at collaborating with others. Relationships and friendships seem to be huge inspirations for them.
The 11/38 crowd, they tend to be natural leaders. When they speak, people listen. They really embody that karma concept of putting good out into the world and getting good back. They may not be overly spiritual, but they definitely have some gift. And they’re more practical in their approach to things.
Both life paths 29 and 38 can face a lot of challenges or even hard times during their lives. But that’s what makes them the masters – that’s why they call it the master number 11. They’ve figured out how to inspire other people and help others out. Life path 29 needs to focus more on being idealistic while also being practical, whereas life path 38 has to stop being so skeptical or questioning everything. But usually, in the later part of their life, they’ll discover their real reasons for being here. Late 20’s or 30’s is typically their turning point.
