What are Karmic Lesson Numbers ?
A person may possess more than one Karmic Lesson Number. These numbers range from 1-9 and do not go higher than that. Each letter of the English alphabet is associated with these numbers. 'A-I' of the alphabet is associated with numbers from 1 through 9 and with 'J' again the number cycle starts from 1-9 and so on.
Karmic Lesson numbers are found from the name of the person. These numbers are those from 1 to 9 that are absent from our names.
For example: the name ANGELINA JOLIE consists of the following numbers:
ANGELINA JOLIE
15753951 16395
The numbers that are absent are 2, 4 and 8. Therefore, 3 and 8 are the Karmic lesson numbers for a person with this name.
Each of these missing numbers is associated with a specific talent that a person lacks. A missing number indicates a vacuum that needs to be filled in this lifetime by mastering the required Karmic lesson. Thus, karmic lesson numbers provide a direction to life by helping us find our weakness, and to focus on overcoming it.
A person who has the number 1 missing from his or her name has the Karmic Lesson number 1. This person is weak-willed and not firm. Thus such a person needs to learn to show more initiative and determination.
These individuals need to start making their own decisions and be less dependent. They will come in contact with many strong-minded people and thus one will either need to learn to be self-confident and insistent or get suppressed. This karmic lesson number is missing from the name only to teach these people to be more dynamic and assertive. Learn to uphold yourself among others and exude confidence.
Learning not to be timid in front of others and being concerned with what the other person thinks needs to be shirked off. Be more confident about your abilities, decision- making and rationality.

The effect of any karmic lesson diminishes if this number is present once in any of the other core numbers such as Life Path, Destiny number, or Birthday.
