Subconscious Self Number

In numerology, the Subconscious Self number shows how you can use your natural talents and make the most out of opportunities you’re presented with in life, usually when you’re dealing with difficult situations or something new.

To get your Subconscious Self number, you check all of the numbers that are in your full birth name (including your middle name). Every letter in the alphabet corresponds to a number 1 - 9. Add together how many numbers are missing in your full birth name. Most people have at least 1 or 2 numbers missing in their birth name (these are your Karmic Lesson numbers). However many you’re missing, subtract from 9, and that’s your Subconscious Self number.

For example, if you’re missing numbers 3 and 8 in your name, you’re missing 2 numbers, so subtract 2 from 9, and your Subconscious Self number is 7. If you’re not missing any numbers, your Subconscious Self number is 9. Note that it isn’t possible to have a Subconscious Self number of 1 or 2 unless you only have a few letters in your name, so those aren’t included.
