De Matrix van Bestemming

What is the destiny matrix

The destiny matrix reads your date of birth through the 22 major arcana of the Tarot. The day, the month and the year become numbers from 1 to 22 and fill an eight-pointed star made of two squares: 30 points, each with its own topic - character, love, money, talents, family lines and purpose.

In the centre of the star is your core arcana: an energy you meet in every area of life. The straight square speaks about your personal qualities, the diagonal one about what comes to you through your family.

How to calculate the destiny matrix by date of birth

Any number above 22 is reduced by adding its digits: 23 → 2 + 3 = 5. The example date is 14 augustus 1997:

1. Day of birth → point A on the left: 14.
2. Month → point B at the top: 8.
3. Year → point C on the right: 1 + 9 + 9 + 7 = 26 → 8.
4. A + B + C → point D at the bottom: 14 + 8 + 8 = 30 → 3.
5. A + B + C + D → the centre E, your core arcana: 14 + 8 + 8 + 3 = 33 → 6.
6. The corners are sums of neighbours (A + B, B + C, C + D, D + A), and every ray gets inner points on its way to the centre - that is how all 30 numbers appear.

The years ring: which arcana leads you now

Around the matrix runs the ring of age from 0 to 80. Its anchors are the outer points: A at birth, then every 10 years the next point clockwise - F at 10, B at 20, G at 30, C at 40, I at 50, D at 60, H at 70. Between two anchors the ring is halved three times, and each new point is the sum of its neighbours: 64 periods of about a year and a quarter.

The gold period is the one you are living now. Its arcana sets the tone of this time; in the app every period opens into four parts - what it is about, when it goes well, when it goes wrong and your task.
