The most important number in your numerology chart is based on your birth date. This number is called the Life Path number, and it gives us a broad outline of the opportunities, lessons, and challenges we’ll encounter in our life.
Your Life Path number is the sum of the month, day, and year of your birth. For example, if you were born on July 13, 1986, your Life Path number is 8. 7+1+3+1+9+8+6=35. Then, 3+5=8. The Life Path number consists of a single-digit number, so continue adding until you reach the single-digit number.

Note the shape of the number 8, which, when rotated by 90 degrees, changes into the infinity symbol, infinite strength. Those born with the 8 Life Path are gifted with natural leadership and the capacity to accumulate great wealth. They experience the satisfaction that comes from material wealth and the power that comes with it.
The number 8, “The Master,” or “The Powerhouse,” is associated with strength. Individuals with Life Path number 8 are natural-born leaders and do well in a position of authority. They are also good at organizing, have a great talent for management in all areas of life, especially in business and financial matters (business, finance, law, real estate, science, politics), and they like being in charge and tend to be ambitious. They are likely visionary and very good at inspiring others by their own actions.
Their talent lies not with petty management or small goals but with the greater vision, purpose, and its long-range goals. People often recognize those born with Life Path number 8 as efficient and capable, able to analyze what’s needed in any situation, and efficiently manage people to accomplish the task.
If they don’t understand money’s real and relative value, they risk losing it all. They must learn to bounce back from failures and defeats and learn to recognize what’s worth their time, energy, and effort, too. They can be extremely determined and driven, and they can see the potential even there where others do not see it, but if an insurmountable obstacle appears, these individuals may fall into severe stress or depression, and their drive may turn into stagnation.
Although you will likely butt heads with others due to your bluntness and uniqueness of vision, you feel very deeply, and you can judge the character of others very well. You are also good at influencing and engaging those around you. This is another one of your strengths that can help you to move forward with success and become a great leader.
On the downside, you might be prone to being materialistic, a workaholic, egotistic, and excessively stubborn. People with Life Path number 8 are sometimes blinded by their own vision and do not let others get close to them. On the bright side, you tend to be protective of those you love and possess great inner strength and fantastic determination. It is important for those with Life Path number 8 to learn patience and humility and embrace their true identity and ambitions.
Life Path 8 & Love
People with life path number 8 are afraid of possible emotional injury – that’s why they prefer to close their hearts at the beginning of the relationship as they need to explore the “ground” first. If they trust you, they will be able to open up, but they certainly need time to do so.
They like challenges and generously give gifts or compliments. Mostly they like to show off and boast of their achievements and what they have.
They can be great partners who will provide safety and comfort to their second half. The ideal partner could be the one with Life Path number 7. The seven is a spiritual world, while the eighth is the material world. Combining these two numbers is ideal for balancing the qualities of these two partners. An infinity ring could be a great gift for your loved ones.
