Explanation:
Determine letter numerical values from chart:
J = 1, O = 6, H = 8, N = 5; S = 1, M = 4, I = 9, T = 2, H = 8
Sum the numerical values of names:
JOHN = 20 and SMITH = 24
Change the values to single digits:
20 = 2 + 0 = 2, 24 = 2 + 4 = 6

Life Path Number
We determine this number by calculating the sum of the month, day and year of birth.
This is the most important element in a numerology reading. It represents who you are at birth and the native traits and abilities that you will carry with you through life. Although a majority of people relate well to their life path, a few have little interest in pursuing that course.
The Life Path is the sum of the birth date. This number represents who you are at birth and the native traits that you will carry with you through life. The most important number that will be discussed here is your Life Path number. The Life Path describes the nature of this journey through life.
Life Path of John Smith
John Smith was born in December 24th 1953 (12/24/1953 or 24/12/1953)
The first method is to place the month, day and year in a column and do simple addition. Then, take the result and add the numbers together.
12 Number of birth month
24 Day of Month
1953 Year of birth
1989 =1+9+8+9 =27=2+7= 9
Therefore, the life path number is 9.
The other method is to first add the numbers of the day and get a result. Then add the numbers of the month and get a result. Then add the numbers of the year and get a result. Reduce any double digit numbers by adding. You will then add the three results to come to the final number - the Life Path number:
Month 12 = 1+2 = 3
Day 24 = 2+4 = 6
Year 1953 = 1+9+5+3 = 18 = 1+8 = 9
Then you add: 3+6+9 = 18 = 1+8 = 9
You will notice we arrived at the same number. However, by using both methods, should the final number be 11 or 22, which are considered master numbers you will not automatically reduce them.
Interpretation:
The Life Path Number of John Smith has a numerological value of 9. From the Chart of Characteristics of Numbers, 9 has the characteristics of spiritual and mental achievement.
