Example Calculation 1: John Winston Lennon

i] Assign a number from the chart to each VOWEL in your FULL BIRTH NAME. This should be done separately for your First Name, Middle Name (if you have one), and Last Name (surname).

ii] Add the numbers, and if needed, reduce them down until you have a single digit value. 6 = 6

9 + 6 = 15 = 6

5 + 6 = 11

iii] Add these results together and again reduce until you have a single digit value to get your Heart's Desire/Soul Urge Number
