What it describes
Your natural way of acting is to open a path where none existed yet. The 1 carries the beginning, the origin, the first step, and in concrete terms that shows up as a reflex to initiate rather than follow, to propose a direction rather than wait for one to be proposed to you.
This way of acting carries a real demand for autonomy in the execution itself: even when you accept an idea that came from elsewhere, you need to carry it your own way, with your own mark on it, otherwise it never really belongs to you. It is not pride, it is the very meaning of the 1: nothing really counts until it has passed through you.
This talent shows itself through one precise reflex: faced with a new situation, you rarely ask “who is handling this?”, you more often answer that question with your own move, before it has even been asked out loud.
Nothing really counts for me until it has passed through my hands.
In which recent situation did you feel the need to do things your own way, even when another method already existed?
How it is calculated
Each letter of your full birth name — first names and surname, the name you were given at birth — is given a value from 1 to 9, following the order of the alphabet: A is 1, B is 2, and so on to I is 9, then J starts again at 1.
All those values are added together, then reduced to a single digit — except 11, 22 and 33, which are kept as they are.
Your married name, a chosen name or a nickname does not change this number. It is calculated from the name you were given.

A worked example
Take the name JONAS ANN OSEI. Every letter of the name is counted.
J 1 · O 6 · N 5 · A 1 · S 1 · A 1 · N 5 · N 5 · O 6 · S 1 · E 5 · I 9
Added together, that gives 46, then 4 + 6 = 10, then 1 + 0 = 1 — expression number 1.
