Soul Urge Numbers

Your soul urge number, also called the heart's desire number, comes from the vowels in your full birth name. It reveals your inner motivation — what you truly long for and what genuinely fulfills you. Give each vowel a value from 1 to 9, add them up, and reduce to a single digit — unless you land on a master number (11, 22, or 33).
