In Numerology your destiny number or purpose in life is determined from your month, date and year of birth.  In short, this destiny number tells what grade you're in, in the "school of life".  Therefore suggesting lessons to be learned or mastered in this present existence.  Take for instance, someone born January 28, 1987.   Do the following:

                                                              1
                                                            28
                                                               1987

                                                          ______
                                                               2016 = 9 (2+0+1+6=9 Destiny number)

So, to find your Destiny Number or purpose in life, take your full birthday like in the example above to determine yours.
