About this tool
Destiny number 9 closes the cycle: it gathers a little of every number before it and is asked to give the mixture away. Art, healing, teaching and causes larger than one biography suit this path; clinging does not. The 9's mastery is the graceful ending — finishing chapters, and people, with gratitude instead of grip.
The expression number comes from the whole name: each letter is mapped to a digit with the cyclic A=1…I=9 table, the digits are totalled, and the total is reduced. A name whose letters sum to 45 is a 9, because 4 + 5 = 9.
See the rest of the picture in the calculator above: from any name it also draws the soul urge number out of the vowels and the personality number out of the consonants — letter by letter, fully in-browser.
Example. The name Ada maps to a=1, d=4, a=1 and returns expression 6, soul urge 2 from the vowels, and personality 4 from the consonants.
Limit. Only master numbers 11 and 22 are preserved for a name, and any character with no letter value is skipped.
