Life Path Number Compatibility

We all have our very own life path number in numerology based on our birthday and time of birth. The best way to find out what yours is and what it means is to talk to a numerology expert one-on-one. But you can do this even on your own, at least to an extent.

In this article, we will discuss how to calculate your life path number. Then, we will talk about why life path numbers are crucial to determining compatibility. Finally, an example of compatible and incompatible life path numbers will be given.

What’s a Life Path Number and How It Works

One’s life path number has the strongest effect on numerology compatibility. This is because the life path number tells us what is at our core, meaning our key characteristics, our emotions, and how we relate to others. Some numbers are simply more compatible when put together than others. The life path number is a single-digit number (1-9) or a master number (11,22,33). However, with regard to numerology compatibility, only single digits are used.

Before checking your life path number compatibility, you need to calculate your life path number. The life path number is based on your birthday. Let’s say your birthday is June 18, 2003. Let’s see what your life path number is.

Step 1: Reduce the month (06)

Step 2: Reduce the date (1+8 = 9)

Step 3: Reduce the year (2+0+0+3 = 5)

Step 4: Add the three remaining numbers (6+9+5 = 20)

Step 5: Reduce (2+0 = 2) Your life path number is 2!

Life Path Number Compatibility For Different Numbers

Once you calculate your and your partner’s life path numbers, you are ready to figure out your compatibility. Certain numbers are more compatible than others.

Each number has its own set of characteristics, meaning they are only compatible with numbers that possess traits that complement them. Also, if you’re interested in a more comprehensive analysis, we recommend you talk to a real psychic reader who specializes in numerology.

Life Path Number 1 Compatibility

If your life path number is 1, you are dynamic and ambitious, which is why you are compatible with life path numbers 5 and 6. These are the numbers that value creativity and adventure; they balance out your intensity.

You are the least compatible with life path numbers 1, 8, and 9. You have clashing leadership styles with these three, which means that conflict is almost inevitable, and compromise will require a lot of work.

Life Path Number 2 Compatibility

People with life path number 2 are diplomatic and sensitive. They can form very harmonious partnerships with number 6, which is incredibly nurturing, and number 8, known for its inner strength.

On the contrary, if your life path number is 2, you likely won’t succeed in a relationship with number 5. People with this number are relentless, and the amount of patience and empathy you two will need to make things work is just too much.

Life Path Number 3 Compatibility

Number 3 is creative and communicative, and they pair well with people who can appreciate their artistic flair and social nature. This explains why the best partners for number 3 are the joyful, adventurous, and intellectually curious numbers 5 and 7.

The relationship between numbers 3 and 1 is bound to be challenging because of the desire for leadership that number 1 has. At the same time, it might also be very rewarding and productive. If you two learn how to compromise, you can change the world together.

Life Path Number 4 Compatibility

People with life path number 4 are the equivalent of earth signs in astrology. They are grounded and appreciate stability and structure more than anything. This makes them compatible with numbers 1 and 8, who bring the ambition that number 4 lacks at times.

However, if your number is 4, you will likely struggle in a relationship with the number 5. People whose life path number is 5 are the Gemini of numerology. They are too spontaneous and flexible for number 4’s liking.

Life Path Number 5 Compatibility

Number 5 is adventurous and free-spirited. They connect best with those who respect their need for freedom and excitement, which is why numbers 1 and 3 make great partners for number 5.

In contrast, numbers 2 and 4 aren’t good matches for number 5. They are simply too different to find common ground.

Life Path Number 6 Compatibility

If your life path number is 6, you are caring and nurturing. The things you look for in a potential partner are empathy and family values. As a result, you pair well with number 2, who has unparalleled emotional depth, and number 9, who is a true humanitarian at heart.

On the other hand, your relationship with number 7 has a low chance of working out. People with life path number 7 value solitude, which will likely frustrate number 6, who desires constant connection.

Life Path Number 7 Compatibility

People with life path number 7 are intellectual and introspective. They make exceptional partners for numbers 3 and 5, who have the most curious minds (after number 7, of course).

In turn, as an introvert, number 7 is unlikely to be happy with numbers 6 and 8. They are too outwardly oriented for number 7’s liking.

Life Path Number 8 Compatibility

Individuals with life path number 8 make excellent dictators, but not necessarily in a bad way. They are very ambitious and authoritative, which makes them vibe well with the supportive and practical numbers 2 and 4.

The worst partner for number 8 is definitely number 1. Two leaders in a couple is a recipe for never-ending conflict. Your relationship will be a battlefield instead of a safe haven.

Life Path Number 9 Compatibility

Finally, if your life path number is 9, you are compassionate and humanitarian, and you need a partner who shares your altruistic values and depth. That’s what makes you compatible with numbers 2 and 6.

On the contrary, the practical nature of number 3 will likely frustrate you. Their practicality isn’t a good match for your idealism.
