The Core Numbers in Numerology — Part III: The Attitude Number — Our First Impression

The Attitude Number

The next core number we will explore is the Attitude Number — sometimes called the Sun Number. The Attitude Number is a very revealing number that most numerologists — surprisingly — don’t include in the set of core numbers. This omission is confounding to me as the Attitude Number influences every aspect of a person’s life and often determines success in all types of relationships. The Attitude Number indicates the first impression a person makes on others as well as a person’s attitude toward life situations — how they approach/react to problems, solutions, etc. In addition, the Attitude Number points to energetic patterns that an individual has developed during their formative years that either seemed to work well, or were reactions to situations that became deeply ingrained. Sometimes these behaviors can disguise an individual’s true nature.

To calculate the Attitude Number, add your Month and Day of birth and reduce the sum to a single digit — if you come up with a Karmic Debt Number — 13, 14, 16, or 19, or Master Number — 11, 22, 33 — make sure to make a note and then reduce to a single digit. For example, you can write 22/4 or 14/5 next to the Attitude Number.
