Some time ago, I received a FAQ (Frequently Asked Question) about the number 33. I have received the same FAQ twice this week, so I thought I’d post my reply to the original FAQ.

“My birthday is 4-17-1965. If you add up these core numbers it comes to a 33. Is this a master number? Or should these two numbers be added to get a 6?”

Hi Michael

Your question is an interesting one and touches on some of the basic principles of numerology. Numerology in one form or another can be found all over the world. There are several systems fom Ki, which is an ancient Japanese system based upon numerology patterns in the birthdate, the Kabbalah and the more prevelant Chaldean and Pythagorean systems used in the west. Part of Pythagorean Numerology’s popularity arises from the fact that it is easy to learn how to translate numbers and master their meanings. It was created by the Greek philosopher Pythagoras, who was born around 590 BC. Like Chaldean numerology, Pythagorean numerology analyzes both the name and date of birth, and the interaction between the two. However, unlike Chaldean numerology, the numerology numbers are assigned to letters in sequence. It uses the numbers 1-9. The numbers 11 (Master Teacher) and 22 (Master Builder) are considered to be master vibrations and are not reduced. Some of the other systems include 33 and 44, but the Pythagorean system stops at 22 so 33 is not a master number according to this system and therefore should be reduced. A full numerology report would provide you with more information.

The life path numbers 11 and 22 can be reduced to a 2 or 4 respectively although the description would not be completely accurate. Even though you may not personally wish to reduce your 33 to a 6, you could read the number 6 profile in my blog for some insight, but I have prepared a short personal profile below for you.
