Personal Year numbers.
Where your Life Path describes the road, your Personal Year describes the weather. It moves through a nine-year cycle — beginning, tending, expressing, building, changing, caring, deepening, harvesting, releasing — and then begins again.
How to calculate your Personal Year
- 01 — Reduce your birth month to one digit.
- 02 — Reduce your birth day to one digit.
- 03 — Reduce the current calendar year to one digit.
- 04 — Add all three and reduce to a single digit, 1 through 9.
Your Personal Year turns over on 1 January in the most common system — though many readers feel it shift around their birthday instead. Notice which rhythm matches your life.
