Alexander III of Macedon (born July 356 BC) is best known as Alexander the Great. He succeeded his father, King Philip II, to the throne at the age of 20. Once king, he conducted military campaigns through Greece, Africa and even as far as India.
At the age of thirty, he created the largest empire of the time, stretching from Greece to northwest India. He was undefeated in battle and died of illness or poisoning around the age of 32.
This article examines his numerology to see how he expresses his numbers.
Life path number
The life path is the total of a person’s birthday (mm/dd/yyyy). Since Alexander’s specific birthday is unknown, we will look at his birth month and year to determine his life path number. He was born in July 356, so 07/356, which is a total of 363, which goes back to 12, which goes back to 3. If the numbers are added consecutively, the total is also 21, which goes back to 3.
A person with life path number three is creative and romantic. That’s why they have passion and energy to bring creative ideas into the world, solve problems and imagine. Their personality develops through their creative activity.
As creative people, they embrace new ideas, change, risks and opportunities at a much higher level than any other number. So they become successful by finding and fulfilling needs in society. Because they create to succeed in life, they overcome challenges that come their way by thinking outside the box or building a new box.
In Alexander’s case, he would represent both the creative and hard work aspects of this song through his military skill and success. He was a military commander ahead of his time, which led to his undefeated record in all his battles as king, from 20 years old to 31 or 32 years old.
Lot number
The destination number is the total of the full birth name. Alexander is not identified by a surname, just Alexander, so his lottery number is the total of his name, which adds up to 39, which makes a total of 12, which reduces to 3.
An individual with destiny number three attracts creative and romantic individuals. That is why they are often the muse of a writer, musician, painter, photographer or any other type of artist.
Their energy inspires others to embrace new ideas, change, risks and opportunities because they want the other to be creative. Destiny wants them to encourage creativity in others and support art as the spark that makes the artist shine.
His life path number and destiny number are both 3. Since he was known by a ruling title and famous name, it is worth looking at the numerology of Alexander III, King of Macedon, and Alexander, the Great.
Alexander III, King of Macedonia
This name and title total 105, which adds up to 6. An individual with destiny number six attracts nurturing and caring people. So they learn how to help others find ways to support their community and share what they know will help others.
They understand the value of service and want others to know how to serve. Their innate understanding of compassion, empathy and consideration provides guidance to others who wish to follow this path in life. As fate would have it, they show people the power of service and the grace of duty.
Alexander the Great
This name and title total 78, which is a total of 15, which reduces to 6. The same number as his other title, Alexander III, King of Macedon.
Active number
You live life with your first name, and therefore its numerical value is your active number. Some people use their first name, others adopt a nickname given to them by a family member or peer, and some people choose a nickname or even an alternate name. The “real” active number is the given birth name.
Even if you legally change your first name, the active core number is the birth name your parents gave you. A legally changed name is more powerful than a nickname. And every name used to identify a person in the world is a variation of an active number. In Alexander’s case, his active number is 39, which makes a total of 12, which goes down to 3, the number for creativity and hard work.
An individual with an active number 3 is creative and dynamic. That’s why they love learning, solving problems, expressing ideas and working creatively. A child with a 3 first name prefers to engage in creative activities and be as active as possible throughout the day. When they are focused, they achieve amazing feats, but when they are disinterested, no threat or reward moves them.
Hereditary number
There is no hereditary number for Alexander. He had no surname from his father Philip.
Soul urge number
The Soul Urge Number is the total of the vowels in a name, especially the full birth name. The Soul Urge is like an energy charge within a person’s numerology. The Soul Urge number ’empowers’ the Destiny number. In Alexander’s case, his number is 12, which reduces to 3.
An individual with a Soul Urge Number 3 draws energy from creative endeavor. Therefore, they work with the need to create energy. These individuals are often imaginative, visionary and smart. Accepting that you have to be creative to get what you want and make things happen can help you become more successful in your relationships and endeavors.
Personality number
The personality number is the total of consonants in the name, specifically the full birth name. The personality number is how people meet and interpret someone. It’s like the clothes you choose when you plan to go out, which makes people react to you in a certain way. For Alexander, his number is 27, which reduces to 9.
A person with personality number 9 presents themselves as wise towards others. Therefore, others see them as altruistic or as a ‘pushover’. People who value wise counselors expect a Personality 9 to fulfill that role in life. Don’t be surprised if people treat you as someone who will listen to their concerns and problems, even if you want someone to listen to you.
Soul purpose number
Your life path number reveals your numerical engine; it is the energy that drives you. Your destiny number reveals the numerical energy the world desires from you. When you combine them, you get your Soul Purpose Number, which reveals the ‘why’ of your existence in this life.
In Alexander’s case, his Soul Purpose Number is the total of his Life Path Number 3 plus his Destiny Number 3, which is a total of 6. With a combination of 3 + 3, he is here to “serve through creativity and entertainment”.
Alexander’s total numerology is:
- LPN = 3
- DN=3
- A=3
- HN = N/A
- SUN = 3
- PN = 9
- SPN = 6
The most interesting thing about Alexander’s numerology is the factor of 3 in all his numbers. He has four 3s, a 6, and a 9. His Soul Purpose Number seems unusual considering his role as a military leader and conqueror.
If you use the destiny number 6 for Alexander III, King of Macedon, and Alexander the Great, the soul purpose becomes 9, which changes its energy into “creative sharing through service.” It is difficult to know his creative energy beyond the battlefield, or his philosophy as a ruler. Many profess ideas of brotherhood while acting as tyrants.
You would expect a great leader to have at least a 1 or 8 in his or her numerology, but that is not the case with Alexander.
