Your birth date describes who we are, what we
are good at and what our inborn abilities are.
It also points to what we have to learn and the
challenges we are facing. To figure out your
Birth Number, add all the numbers in the birth
date together like in the example until there
there is only one digit... A Birth Number does
not prevent you from being anything you want to
be, it will just color your choice differently
and give you a little insight. Once you have
discovered your Birth Number, forward this email
to the rest of your friends, including the one
who sent this to you ...Have fun!

Example: March 20, 1950: 3 + 2+0 + 1+9+5+0 =
20 = 2 + 0 = 2 >>>> 2 is the Birth
Number to read for the birth > date in the
example. > > See below for who you are: Your
number is _____,
