Perhaps the major key to your life is how you work with your friends and loved ones; your family. Many of us can't see how we deal with those closest to us. Numerology can help you find out what your basic approach is to working with your friends and loved ones. You just need to calculate your Key number.

The Key number has several names: Core, and First name number to name a few. This number shows us how we interact with close friends and loved ones. It is similar to your Destiny number, which shows how you react to people in general.

It's also considered fortunate to have a Key number different from your fadic Birthday number. Traditionally, your Birthday number is the lock on the door of your Life. If your Key number matches this number, then you will need the help of others to unlock this door and pursue your Life Path.

Key Number Calculation

Your Key number is calculated by summing the number values of the letters in your first name, and then reducing the total by fadic addition. The number values are determined by each letters position in the alphabet. For example actor Johnny Depp's Key number is (5) as shown below:

Johnny = (10 + 15 + 8 + 14 + 14 + 25) = (86) = (8 + 6) = (14) = (5)
