When I first found out my personality and soul card, I wasn’t 100% sure how exactly it implies to my life, but it definitely rang true to me. It turns out I’m an The Empress. That day I’ve starred at The Empress card for a long time, I noticed all the details and my life purpose and my personality started to emerge. It become my favorite card of the tarot.
As the years pass by, I feel like I am slowly becoming more and more aligned with the Empress card and I see that the steps I take are very much in line with what this cards represents. It like the fuel that gets my engine going. It’s not the purpose in itself.
I have a feeling it would help you as well to find out your personality and soul cards.
But first: What do Personality and Soul cards describe?
Personality card – indicates what you have come here on Earth to learn in this particular life time. What important task you have set up for yourself to accomplish and to learn. These are large concepts, they don’t just talk about your job or family. This is so big that it can keep you busy your whole life.
Soul card indicates your soul’s purpose throughout all your lifetimes. You have one soul that reincarnates into different persons over the years, centuries and millennia. The deep trait along which your soul is evolving is just one. And that’s what this card talks about.
Step 1: Determine your Personality and Soul Number.
Add together your month, day and year of birth.
For example:
If your birthday is
October 3rd 1979
10 (month) + 3 (day) + 1979 (year) = 1992
reduce the number even further by adding together all the digits.
1+9+9+2 = 21.
When you get 2 digit number which is lower than 22, that’s your personality number.
To find out your soul number, reduce the number even further.
2+1= 3
Your personality number is 21 and your soul number is 3
It is not uncommon to come up with only 1 number for personality and soul (meaning when you add your birthday together, you just get one number):
March 3rd 1981
3+3+1981 = 1987 = 25 = 7
Since 25 is higher than 22, I added 2 + 5 and came up with only one number – 7
In this case your personality and soul numbers are same. If that happens to you, it means that in this life time you are working on your soul’s purpose and that makes you more that much more direct and focused.
If you get number 22, you’ll notice that there isn’t a card corresponding to it. What that means is that your personality number is card 0, the dreamer, and your soul number is 4, the emperor.
There is also a chance that you get 3 numbers. If your first number is 19 you will have 3 numbers 19, 10, 1
This is especially creative path in which all three numbers operate as both personality and soul.
Please calculate your number and than find a corresponding card below.
Step 2: Find the card corresponding to your number(s)
I chose Angel Tarot cards for this reading but any major arcana cards will do. I like that these cards are positive, don’t have frightening images on it and that you also get a little description underneath as well. Please don’t rely on a description too much though :).
Images of cards are below the article.
Step 3: Write down all your impressions.
Write anything that comes to your mind about your relationship to your card(s). Please don’t censor yourself. Look at the pictures closely. Use your intuition, notice any feelings, ideas, sounds and images that flash through your mind. Trust yourself and your notions and your personality and soul expression will be revealed to you.
Your personality and soul card will become even clearer to you as the time goes by. You might want to meditate on it once in a blue moon 🙂
In case you are completely lost, next week I will reveal more descriptive meanings behind these cards.
But I do want to give you time to figure it out on your own 🙂
Please share in the comments below what insights did you get from your cards. Do they ring true to you?

20 and 2, interesting – would like to know more.
Hi Marirose, Think about it this is your life and your card. But next week I will share more details about the cards.
hi. i seem to be lost. my birthday is october 11, 1983. if i add all three digits it is 2004. and if i add it again it is only 6. does that mean my soul and personality number is 6?
thank you.
Yes absolutely your personality and soul number are the same and that means you are working specially more focused along your soul trait line.
Personality is 10, soul is 1: I thought the 1 card was so beautiful and lush and wondrous; I thought the 10 card was FIERCE. And coincidental that Archangel Michael is my card/s: that is ny dad’s name and my son’s.
That’s a powerful combination Therese. And yes seems like a coincidence with Archangel Michael but it is not 🙂 magician is amazing card I love it. I’ll give you more feedback next week.
My personality number is 28. Do I reduce that again? To 10? So 10 is my personality and 1 is my soul number?
Yes you are right Tanya. Your personality is 10 and soul 1
well… 19,10, and 1… thanks for this! ahhhh more questions!
Yes it’s complicated but know that you are so powerful. Magician is an amazing card.
Mine is 7 – self discipline & willpower stands out, something that’s coming up a lot for me! Public recognition and a major achievement, don’t know, obviously not there yet. Look forward to more info next week.
7 for both…Chariot. Looking forward to next week!
9. The Hermit. I definitely feel like I have been and still am on a mission of self-discovery, but I am not sure about spiritual teaching or how that fits or might transpire in my life.
The Lovers, Archangel Raphael. Number 6 is both my Personality and Soul. So much light! Love it!
