What Is a Personal Year?
The Personal Year is the chapter you are in — Life Path plus the current year, birthday to birthday.
The chapter
The year is the chapter. The month is the scene. The day is the weather. A Personal Year 1 is a start-over chapter. 4 is a build year. 9 is a finish-and-release year. Do not take a year number as an order to sign, leave, or marry.
How it is calculated
Personal Year = Life Path + the current calendar year, reduced, masters kept. On this site the year runs birthday to birthday — not January 1. Someone born in March is not in the same Personal Year in February that they will be in April.
Then Personal Month = Personal Year + calendar month. Personal Day = Personal Month + calendar day.
Universal weather
Universal Year / Month / Day are the same reductions without your birth date — the public room. When your Personal Day and the Universal Day agree, life feels easy. When they clash, you need more intention.
The numbers
Gift, shadow, and practice for every core and master.
