If something in your house feels...off, it may be more than just your gut. House numerology tells your home's energy based on its address number. We interviewed expert numerologists and astrologers for special insight into what these numbers mean and how to integrate them into your life. We'll start with how to find your house number before diving into what it means for you and your home.

Understanding Your House Number in Numerology

Numerologist Novalee Wilder says you can find your house number by adding up the digits in your street or apartment number. For example, if your street address is 256, your house number is 13. The house number affects the energies of the building you live in, which may make your home more or less compatible with you.

How to Calculate Your House Numerology

1. 
   Reduce your house number to a single digit with addition. Add together the individual digits of your address number to find your house numerology number. If you get a double-digit number, add those digits up as well. Continue until you get a single-digit number. This final sum is your numerological home or address number.

   • Example: For an address at 1615 Candy Street, add 1 + 6 + 1 + 5 = 13. Then, add 1 + 3 = 4. This house’s numerology number is 4.
   • If your home number has a letter, include it in your calculation. For example, the house number 12B is calculated as 1 + 2 + 2 = 5.
   • Each letter has a matching number: 1 (A, J, S) - 2 (B, K, T) - 3 (C, L, U) - 4 (D, M, V) - 5 (E, N, W) - 6 (F, O, X) - 7 (G, P, Y) - 8 (H, Q, Z) - 9 (I, R).
   • If you live in an apartment, use your apartment number instead of the building address. If your address is 180 Harvard Ave, Apt 4D, only add 4 + 4 = 8.
   • If you live on a numbered street (for example, 5th Avenue), do not include the street in your calculation.

   Number 1 A number 1 home promotes innovation, creativity, and independence. It symbolizes new beginnings; you will likely grow and change a lot while living in this home. It may be the first place you’ve lived on your own or the first place you’ve lived with your significant other.

   • Number 1 homes are great for self-employed people, remote workers, or those who value space and autonomy.
   • Number 1 houses are challenging for very social people who enjoy spending time in other people’s company more than being alone.

   Number 3 A number 3 house is all about parties, romance, and fun. Number 3 houses radiate a cheerful, creative, and friendly energy. They bring a low level of commitment, making a number 3 house the perfect short-term spot for spontaneity and adventure.

   • Number 3 homes are great for people who enjoy throwing parties, networking, or having a place to hole up with their newest fling.

   Number 4 A number 4 house may not be a forever home, but it sets you up for the next important chapter of your life.

Alternatively, moving into this house with a significant other might lead to marriage or a permanent shared home.

   • Number 4 homes are great for those who enjoy stability and activities like investing, gardening, or spiritual education.

   • Number 6 homes are great for creative couples or families with pets or children.

   • Number 7 houses are great for tranquility, reflection, and spiritual exploration. These homes are a good fit for yoga coaches and therapists to host clients.
   • Number 7 homes won’t be a good match if you like to party or socialize. They may be isolating for people who enjoy being around others, having material possessions, or who struggle with addiction when alone.

Karmic Debt House Numbers

Download Article

1. 
   The karmic numbers in numerology are 13, 14, 16, and 19. If one of these numbers shows up as a sum in your house numerology calculation, your home has a karmic debt. That doesn’t mean anything bad about your home, but you may have an extra obstacle to overcome.

   • Number 13 is linked to laziness and self-indulgence. This debt may be paid with hard work and improved self-control. The number 13 may mean your home needs a lot of structural or maintenance work.
   • Number 14 indicates an excessive enjoyment of life using tools like food, alcohol, and sex to avoid responsibility. You may have to repay this debt by reigning in impulsive tendencies and practicing modesty.
   • Number 16 represents challenges like difficulty developing meaningful relationships or sabotaging existing relationships. Put extra effort into your relationships and abstain from behaviors that would betray your loved ones.
   • Number 19 may show previous patterns of being a bully or hurting others for one’s own gain. If your house has this energy, work hard to care for others and spread kindness however you can.

   Add a house number inside your door to change your home’s energy. For example, if you live in a number 2 home but want a number 6 home, add the number 4 to the inside of your door. Since 2 + 4 = 6, a number 6 house is now yours!

   • You may feel incompatible with your house’s personality, or its numerological meaning may not match your life. If moving isn’t an option, this is a good alternative.
   • To learn more, life coach and numerologist Camber Hill recommends using numerology to find your friends’ house numbers so that “you begin to build…an opinion about [those] number[s].”
