Your Expression Number, taken from the consonants in the full name by which you are usually known, represents how you appear, act, and are in life - you as others see and know you. Therefore, the expression number is the key or major number to keep in mind when examining your name. It is the combined inner forces of guidance as they work with and use the outer you - your personality to live and express your life.
