Ive read several ways of calculating the life path, though I'm unsure of the correct way to interpret it.

April 13, 1987

4+1+3+1+9+8+7=33/6

4 4 7=15/6

4+13+1987=2004=6

I'm not sure if I should consider my life path to be a master number vibration or not.

focus on the 6 vibration  this energy can not be denied  .and if in fact you are destined, the 33 master level energy will show itself in time . master level energy is a long and hard road  .many fail and fall short, i am a optimist  but we can not forget the hardships that can come with such power . in Christianity jesus would be a example of 33 master level energy  ,buddha ,ect

i was born 1990 on november 30th now i was toldy you dont split 11

so if i do it like that my sequence is like this

11+3+0+1+9+9+0=33=6

but if i split 11 it looks like this

1+1+3+0+1+9+9+0=24=6
which am i im still a 6 either way but what am i?

on self analysis i fit into the 33 description

i have a friend whoes numbers are 1+2+9+1+9+9+2=33
and we are very similar in nature so just let me know [/quote]

11/30/1990   11/3/1=  15/6   or 2/3/1= 6  


reference :   How to Find Your Life Path number

First, we reduce each unit (month/day/year) of the birth date to a single-digit or a .
Next we add each of the resulting digits (or Master numbers) together and reduce the total again to a single-digit.


Food for thought:
This age-old method is founded on the concept that your Life Path is based on your three Period Cycles.  Therefore, in order to calculate your Life Path number, you actually calculate your Period Cycles first.  Your three Period Cycles are based on your month, day, and year of birth, and represent the early, middle, and later part of your life respectively.  Your complete life's cycle — your Life Path — has all the attributes reflected in the Life Path's number.  However, the Life Path is also influenced by the properties and traits revealed in each of these Period Cycles.

While there are three ways to calculate the Life Path, most numerologists, consider those methods flawed, because they are not based on the Period Cycles, thereby ignoring the logic on which this science is based.

A: The method used in our examples and considered correct by most numerologists.  Example: May 15, 1949 would be 5 + 6 (the 15th day reduced to 6) + 5 (the year 1949 reduced to 23 and then 5) = 16/7.

B: Adds the month + day + year = sum, and then reduced.  Example: May 15, 1949 would be 5 + 15 + 1949 = 1969, which reduces to 25/7.  This method is used by very few numerologists, if any.

C: Adds each single digit as it appears in the date of birth.  For example, May 15, 1949 would be
5 + 1 + 5 + 1 + 9 + 4 + 9 = 34/7.

Notice that we used the same date in all three examples but the results were different in each case: 16/7, 25/7, and 34/7.  Using the prevailing method reveals a 16 Karmic Debt number.
