===> Calculating your Effort Number

Your Effort number is calculated by taking the last (2) digits of your birth year (excluding the century digits) and subtracting (2). We then reduce the sum by using fadic addition to get either a single digit, or one of the master numbers (11 and 22) which we don't reduce.

Note that it is possible to have a negative result or zero if you were born in the years (2000) through (2002).

For example, actor Johnny Depp was born on June 9th, 1963; so his Effort number would be calculated as follows:

Effort Number = (63 - 2) = (61) = (6 + 1) = (7)
