We think that we know ourselves better than anyone else.
Yet, other people often point out things about us and our personalities that we haven’t noticed before.
Your personality number, which is derived from the consonants of your full birth name, is the personality that they see.
This number projects the characteristics others are most likely to see about you before they know you.
Destiny, or Expression Numbers are divided into two main categories.
The Personality Number is among the least known of these types when compared to the Soul Urge number which can be calculated using only your vowels in your name at birth.
What Is a Personality Number?
In numerology, a personality number is a master number, or a single-digit number derived from the consonants of your full birth name as it appears on your birth certificate.
Numerology personality numbers unravel the layers of your personality and lets you know how others see you.

A Manual Personality Number Calculator
Write Down Your Full Name
Write down your first name, middle name, and last name.
Then take out the consonants from all of them. For example, if your name is Johnny Wilson.
The consonants are J, H, N, N, Y, W, L, S, and N.
Note that this name must be the name on your birth certificate from the date you were born.
Even though your name is misspelt on your birth certificate, use that to calculate your numerology personality number.

Calculate your personality number: Add the Consonants Numbers Together
In Johnny Wilson’s case the total will be 1 + 8 + 5 + 5 + 7 + 5 + 3 +1 + 5 = 40.
Make It One Digit
Most personality numbers are single-digit numbers except numbers 11, 22, and 33. These numbers are called master numbers.
Since Jonny Wilson’s result is 40, the sum of 4 and 0 is 4. So, Johnny Wilson’s personality number is 4.
Master Numbers
11, 22, and 33 are master numbers because they are supercharged and rare.
Master numbers are the first three double-digit same-digit numbers because 1, 2, 3 are included in the triangle of enlightenment.
Note that 44, 55, 66, and so on are not master numbers.
If you end up with one of the master numbers as your personality number, you hold traits of the numbers that make up the double digits and the sum of the double digits.
This means a person with the number 11 will have the traits of personality numbers 1, 2, and 11.
And that is how a personality number is calculated.
