Did you know that the motivation number is one of the most critical numbers in numerology?
No?
Well, let’s start from the beginning, then. Have you ever stopped to think that everything in our lives involves numbers?
When we are born, we already have a date, a document, and an address. The hours, months, days, and years are numbers.
This is why numerology is essential in our lives. It can tell us the energy of our personality, our love, and even our professional side. Want to know more?
The importance of knowing your Motivation number
You may have heard the saying: “In the company, you are just a NUMBER.”
Many people tend to say this in conversations when they want to show that the relationship between employee and employer is superficial, that you are not essential, and that you can be replaced at any time.
But are we really just numbers when we are in the professional market?
The truth is that not always. The question is, what needs to be added for your professional to cease to be?
How to calculate your motivation number?
Just add up all the digits of your birth date until you reduce it between a number between 1 and 9. Here is an example:
Suppose you were born on January 28, 1992. Then:
2 (day) + 8 (day) + 1 (month) + 1 + 9 + 9 + 2 (year) = 32 (add it up again!)
32 = 3+2 = 5
Therefore, 5 is your motivation number.
Attention: If you add the numbers and the result is 11, don’t add them up again because 11 is a master number and has its interpretation. If your number results in 10, add the digits 10=1+0=1.

AI Summary!
Numerology is an ancient practice that delves into the mystical relationship between numbers and events in our lives. Among the various numbers derived in numerology, the Motivation Number—also known as the Soul Urge Number—reveals your innermost desires and what drives you. Understanding this number can provide profound insights into your true motivations, guiding you toward a more fulfilling life. Here’s how you can calculate your Motivation Number and interpret its meaning.
Step 1: Understand the Basics
The Motivation Number is derived from the vowels in your full birth name (as recorded on your birth certificate). Each vowel corresponds to a specific number in numerology:
- A = 1
- E = 5
- I = 9
- O = 6
- U = 3
- Y = sometimes considered a vowel if it sounds like one in the name, assigned the value of 7 in such cases.
Step 2: Identify the Vowels in Your Full Name
Write down your full birth name and identify all the vowels. For example, let’s use the name “Elizabeth Anne Johnson”:
- E, I, A, E, A, A, E, O
Step 3: Assign Numerical Values
Assign the corresponding numerical value to each vowel:
- E (5), I (9), A (1), E (5), A (1), A (1), E (5), O (6)
Step 4: Sum the Values
Add up all the numerical values of the vowels:
- 5 + 9 + 1 + 5 + 1 + 1 + 5 + 6 = 33
Step 5: Reduce to a Single Digit
If the sum is a double-digit number, reduce it to a single digit by adding the digits together:
- 3 + 3 = 6
In this example, the Motivation Number is 6.

Each Motivation Number from 1 to 9, and the Master Numbers 11 and 22, has a unique meaning:
- 1: You are driven by independence, leadership, and the desire to be original.
