The Attitude Number is a small number that solves a common complaint: people keep getting me wrong. It is worked out from your birth day and birth month only, and it describes the signal you put out in the first few minutes of meeting someone.
It is worth knowing because it often does not match your inner life at all. A gentle person can have an Attitude Number that reads as cold. A nervous person can have one that reads as arrogant. Once you know the gap, you can close it on purpose.
How to calculate your Attitude Number
Add the day and the month, then reduce.
- 1
Reduce your birth day to one digit.
- 2
Reduce your birth month to one digit.
- 3
Add the two together.
- 4
Reduce the total to one digit if needed.
Example for 14 November
- Day: 1 + 4 = 5
- Month: 11 becomes 1 + 1 = 2
- 5 + 2 = 7

How to use it
Compare it with your Personality Number, which comes from the consonants in your name. When the two agree, people usually read you correctly. When they clash, expect to be misjudged in first meetings and interviews.
The fix is not to change who you are. It is to add one deliberate signal at the start of a meeting that covers the gap. A cold reading Attitude Number is fixed by asking one warm question early. A scattered one is fixed by opening with a clear point.
Questions about the Attitude Number
Why does the Attitude Number not use the year?
Because it describes something immediate rather than something lifelong. The year contributes to your Life Path and your Generation Number, which cover longer patterns.
Can the Attitude Number explain job interview problems?
Often, yes. Interviews are decided in the first few minutes, which is exactly the window this number covers. If your interviews go badly despite good preparation, the gap between your Attitude Number and your Personality Number is worth looking at.
