Your Numerology Personality Number: How the World Sees You

In numerology, your name holds many secrets. While we've discussed how the vowels reveal your inner Heart's Desire, the consonants of your name paint a picture of your outer self. This is known as your Personality Number, and it represents the side of you that you allow the world to see. It's your social mask, your first impression, and the traits people most easily recognize in you.

To calculate this number, you use only the consonants from your full birth name. Each consonant has a numerical value. The process is similar to calculating other core numbers: you sum the values of the consonants in your name and reduce the total to a single digit.
Let's use the name **R**o**B**e**RT** **J**a**M**e**S** **A**La**N** **S**Mi**TH** as an example (consonants are in bold):
- Extract the Consonants: R, B, R, T, J, M, S, N, S, M, T, H
- Convert to Numbers: (9+2+9+2) + (1+4+1) + (5) + (1+4+2+8) - a full numerology chart would be needed for all values.
- Sum and Reduce: You would sum all these values and reduce them to a single digit (or a Master Number 11, 22).
