c numerologyyour soul number aka The number of the heart’s desirereveals to you your basic desires, motivations and personal truth what drives you from your soul’s point of view. Unlike other numerology numbers that focus more on external expressions, the Soul Urge Number brings to the fore what makes you work—your inner emotional forces that drive your activities, choices, and sense of accomplishment.
The soul urge number is derived from the vowels in your full birth name. In numerology, each vowel is said to have a soft, intuitive energy associated with the inner world of the person born and their unconscious desires. To calculate this number for you, translate the vowels in your name into numbers using the letter-to-number numerology system: A = 1, E = 5, I = 9, O = 6, U = 3. Add these numbers and add them up all but one number or what we call a prime number like 11 or 22.
For example, if your name was “Emily Jane Smith, you would focus only on the vowels: E, I, A, E, I; then add their respective numbers to determine your Soul Urge Number.
Your soul number tells you what your soul needs to be happy. It is a guide that shows you which experiences in your life will bring fulfillment or satisfaction. A soul urge number of 2 means that you need harmony, partnership and balance, while a soul urge number of 5 means that you need freedom, adventure and change.
Your soul number tells you what brings you joy that aligns with your heart’s true purpose. This makes it clearer why some activities or environments feel satisfying and others do not, even those that are objectively rewarding. It leads you to decisions that will respect the deepest needs of the heart. And so this number is said to represent a powerful insight into a person’s deepest motivations, a path to further self-awareness, fulfillment and even spiritual balance.
This is the number of the heart.
