A 1 Personal Year begins a 9-year cycle and a 9 Personal Year completes the major work of that cycle. After your 9 Personal Year, your next year begins again with 1.

Personal Year 1       New Directions Emerge; Start of New 9-Year Cycle

Personal Month 3     Enjoy special moments; get away for the weekend; socialize

You may find your daydreams are increasing. You may be feeling frisky and willing to try something that is completely different than your normal playlist. On the other hand, you may ironically be bored stiff! To add to the dilemma, co-workers or others close to you may tend to give mixed messages this week, creating some frustration or annoyance. If making a big decision, take time to see if you are asking the right questions; do research (rather than just accept face value comments). Clarity tends to come as you get closer to the new 4 personal month vibration in March. Just when you feel clueless, an amazing inspiration could strike when you least expect it. If restless, simplify wherever possible. Investigate something that you have been wanting to check out-- such as a new piece of sports equipment, personal growth seminar, professional training, or travel option. A window of opportunity could open for a few days! DO: Ask: What is intuitively calling now? What do you keep thinking about? DON’T: Put off dental work, car repairs, or housekeeping chores—at least make a note in your calendar before you forget completely. KEY: Ironically, a feeling of freedom and optimism comes through getting organized.

Personal Year 2      Make Relationships a Priority; Nurture Contacts

Personal Month 4    Practice self-discipline; get organized

This early part of the year tends to put some restrictions or limitations in your path. Your mood is easily influenced by the weather, traffic delays, and less money in the bank than you had thought. In a few days, however, March will bring your new 5 personal month (think change!) If waiting on something to jell, you could likely hear something encouraging or definite in the next ten days or so. Even if you are feeling a bit uncertain about your future, your gut feeling is that things are changing for the better (even thought you couldn't prove that at the moment.) You might even be getting ready to heat up a relationship or find one. All it takes is a little inner willingness-- and the courage and discipline to follow-through—as well as giving up that old resistance to change! There’s also a good chance that you could be clearing debts this week, financial or otherwise. DO: Be alert to a new idea that could make a big difference in your life. DON’T: Let routine keep you from exploring one new thing this week. KEY: Be open-minded, but not gullible.

Personal Year 3        Give Yourself a Little Love; Be Creative; Enjoy More Free Time

Personal Month 5      Meet new people of like-mind; stay flexible

This month could have created some chaos, conflict, or unexpected detours. After the balancing act of February, you are beginning to move into a more settled vibration of the 6 personal month in March After the complications and busyness (or uncertainties) of the last few weeks, your thoughts could be turning to handling issues around home, family, obligations, or a personal relationship. It’s possible that you might receive news of an old relationship, which could make you see your current situation in a different light. Be spontaneous, but don't do anything you'll regret. Generally,you can expect to feel a little up-in-the-air for the time being. If you feel a conflict between your personal freedom and what others want from you, do what's necessary to be responsible, but also save time and energy for your own self, too. A decision that you make toward the end of the week is likely to bring a sense of relief. DO: Start a new project as long as it will probably add to your security or peace of mind. On the other hand, I suggest that you take another look at your to-do-list and ask yourself: What can I drop? Streamlining your life could be a very big positive step. DON’T: Resist a change of plans at the last minute, as there is a reason for it. KEY: Spontaneity and very positive communication.

Personal Year 4        Plan with An Eye to Long Term Gains; Make Practical Decisions

Personal Month 6     Work to improve conditions; group activities

No doubt about it, you've had to deal with more than your share of duties, drama, and doo-doo in the past few weeks. As February winds down, you probably will begin to crave more time for yourself, especially around the weekend as you enter your 7 personal month in March. The many things you would like to accomplish this year could feel a little overwhelming unless you break things down into small steps. If, at times, you feel discouraged or think that things are not going the way they should, call a friend and have a cup of tea. It’s okay to share your feelings, but try to avoid the doom and gloom talk. Your spiritual lesson now is to realize that whatever is currently happening in your life is purposeful. Events—happy or dark--are causing you to think at a deeper level. An important insight (about budgeting, career, or domestic life) could come toward the end of the week. DO: Take things one step at a time. Refresh yourself with quiet time, a good book, or snuggling with someone special who understands your moods. DON’T: Overeat out of boredom or discouragement, but if you feel like vegging out for awhile, it’s okay! KEY: Things are progressing, so keep a positive attitude.

Personal Year 5        A Year to Make Adjustments and Handle Changes

Personal Month 7      An interesting message or coincidence opens doors

Okay, maybe the past few weeks have been somewhat of a lull before the storm. If you have been in a relatively quiet mood this past month, expect to feel more motivation as you move into an 8 personal month in a few days. New information, professional guidance on a sticky situation, or taking needed action now is likely to help you feel more confident. Your ability to rise gracefully and powerfully to a challenge is growing stronger over the next few weeks. If you’ve been waiting for a positive movement in career (or clearing up legal matters,) it’s almost certainly coming during March. As you increase effective efforts by week’s end, you may finish a project, or be ready to take on something new and interesting. Finances definitely improve—if you continue to be prudent and practical-- under your 8 Personal month in March. DO: Anything that makes you feel more organized and ready for action. DON’T: Procrastinate. KEY: Be open to opportunity.

Personal Year 6       A Very Focused Time of Responsibility, Results, and Putting Down Roots

Personal Month 8     Success is certain; pass an exam; invest

It's likely that the last few weeks have brought to a head any outstanding issues regarding money, investments, property deals, or career. You have had to be quite attentive, hard working, and set good boundaries. The last few days of February continue to require a business-like attitude. Use logic rather than emotions to make decisions. You are doing what you must, not always what you want. It's possible that some old issues may bubble up towards the end of the week, as you begin to enter into your 9 personal month in March. Notice that you might be thinking coulda, woulda, shoulda instead of What do I want now? It's important to remember that, despite what life has thrown you, you ALWAYS handled each challenge in the past. By acknowledging your progress you help stimulate creativity and resourcefulness. Considering options that are not truly viable is not helpful. Don’t worry. March should bring unexpected pleasures or rewards (even money repaid from an old loan.) DO: Clear away anything that is half-finished—or eliminate it from your to-do list altogether. Be generous in spirit. Be philosophical in looking for the purpose of this time. DON’T: Worry if unemployed—this period is definitely in your favor even though this week tends to be slow. KEY: Feel your feelings, but don’t get too attached to how things are unfolding. Appearances may not always be what they seem.

Personal Year 7        Enjoyable Time of Inner Development; Research; Slower Pace

Personal Month 9      Handle problems philosophically; avoid ruminating on the past or masking emotions 

It's likely that your emotions have been quite up and down recently as some parts of your life are changing. You may even have reached for a book onyour shelf, opening it up randomly to look for guidance! The coming transition between February and March could be one of the most important weeks of your year. This week you are leaving the 9 personal month (which tends to give you an opportunity to clear away out-moded conditions), and entering your 1 personal month in March (bringing the glimmer of a possible new direction.) It’s time for a new beginning, personal decisions, or re-thinking your goals. Unexpected news or actual changes could rock your world sometime in March—maybe the first week. With this inventive new energy of the 1 arriving, original ideas and solutions to problems should appear intuitively. Listen to those whispers! DO: Improve your attitude (especially, if you’ve been discouraged) and appearance (if you’ve stopped healthy habits.) The time is coming for action. DON’T: Be negative or resistant to suggestions. KEY: Bury the past, please.

Personal Year 8          A Period Bringing Achievement and a Sense of Control and Satisfaction

Personal Month 1        Certain advancement; hard decisions; improved finances

During the last few weeks you might feel that life suddenly has more possibilities than you would have imagined, after all. If working, you could have been more of a dynamo than usual, but this week requires you to fit in some fun and emotional nourishing time, as well. With this new wind at your back, you could have been under a lot of pressure in February (especially, if you've had any hardware glitches or unsettling news on the work front). However, a feeling of peacefulness comes as you approach your 2 personal month in a few days. Don't be afraid to show your feelings or ask for support from friends or family. Because of recent stress, you may wish that others would bear a little more responsibility—or just be nicer once in awhile. This is a great week to get out and meet new people, personally and professionally. DO: Be loving to a spouse; if single, take time to communicate with friends or potential new love interests. DON’T: Let fear or self-doubt cloud your mind, especially when you are tired at the end of the day. KEY: Work/life balance, and concentrating on SMALL steps.

Personal Year 9        A Transition Time to Another Level of Life; Review; Complete

Personal Month 2      Relationships take the focus; use tact and kindliness

Even though you felt you were ready for a big change in the past few weeks, you could have had some delays or just felt the time was not yet quite right. February could have had you cooling your heels, and waiting on others. This last week is a good time to patch up an argument, visit friends, or spend time with your significant other. It's also a good time to spruce up your appearance; change your hair style and sell or give away the items you never wear in your wardrobe. In March, you move into your 3 personal month, where the emphasis is on creativity and increased communication. Wow, are you ready to feel good, feel nourished, and to feel super-attractive? This coming month could be one of your best all year. You may be starting to think about improving your social life, or spending money or a trinket. Low feelings start to dissolve like clouds now as you read a good book, laugh in a movie, or go for a walk with a friend. If you can get away this week, (or during the next month,) it’s a lovely time for a spontaneous, refreshing mini-get-away. Why not! (But don’t break the bank, either.) DO: Be cheerful and uplift friends who need your support. DON’T: Get into pity-party conversations. KEY: Fun; spending time with younger people; dancing; charitable work.
