1 Personal Year | November is a 3 Personal Month
November is a 3 Personal Month:
This is a month to tap into your inner optimist and focus on expressing yourself in the most authentic way possible. It’s time to unmask your true intentions – to yourself and to others.
Optimism, communication, and networking are highlighted in November.
This is a great time to enjoy yourself with friends—for both large and small get-togethers—so tap into your sense of fun. You might even find yourself throwing a party or two. If there’s ever a month where you can channel your “Host or Hostess with The Mostest” vibe, it’s now.
November is the perfect month to get some of your pre-holiday groove on. This is a month to tap into your inner optimist and focus on expressing yourself in the most authentic way you can.
The 3 (the month you’re experiencing) is all about self-improvement. Or rather than self-improvement, think of it more as an opportunity to clear away some of the debris that’s plugging up the flow for you in whatever way.
It may be pushing the envelope to suggest that your best line of action for November resides in garnering every ounce of optimism you pull out of a hat. Yet this will be the attitude that will sustain you and move you through the tail-end of the year.
In order to maintain sanity, opt for focusing on some lighter elements of life.
This is a great time to enjoy yourself with friends and in finding some sense of community and connection when and where you can find it. You might even feel compelled to take the lead and organize some get-togethers while bringing your unique version of fun and creativity into the mix.
Focus on bringing enjoyment into your life now, as November offers you a wonderful canvas from which to cultivate things large and small that bring you a deep sense of gratification and happiness.
As we’re all continuing to learn, it’s the small things that matter most. And finding happiness or at least a feeling of “being ok” in the midst of it all comes down to making a conscious choice to place your energy in the “good feeling” container rather than the “hades-in-a-handcart” container.
It’s also a time where you’ll need to be extra careful about how you communicate and how other people are communicating with you. Check your sources more than once. And don’t become a source of misinformation for others.
Clear, honest, and authentic communication is needed and will be tested all month long. Stay away from the gossip game and measure your words carefully.
When I worked in real estate, a wise teacher (he was a well-known real estate lawyer) made a huge impression on me that I take with me to this day. He suggested to a review every email (or even conversation) with the idea: How would the judge in a court of law view this communication?
Of course, business email is one thing and personal interactions are another. Yet when I can slow down and keep my wits about me, I like to make sure that whatever I’m saying or writing about someone I would say it in their presence. That’s a tricky one, isn’t it? I don’t achieve this all the time, certainly, yet it does pop into my consciousness when I’m sliding into a direction that isn’t in alignment with that “golden rule.”
Back to the energy of the 3 for your month: This is a perfect time to the arts in whatever form you love. You might very well feel moved to take a song writing course or commit to that on-line course you’ve been putting off.
November is the time to engage in anything that feeds your creative soul.
There also may be opportunities to meet some intriguing people around November 9th. Chances are that some of these folks will be “creative types” and you’ll get to enjoy that added dimension to your conversations and interaction. You may even find a few visionaries who have business leanings similar to your own who can prove to be valuable partners or contacts in the future.
Even though it might be a challenge to shed as much stress as possible and bring your relaxed sense of joy to the surface, it’s imperative for your mental, physical, and emotional health at this juncture of your 1 Personal Year.
You can’t deny that this has been a turning-point year for you both internally and externally. Are you at a place right now that you could never have envisioned before?
Many of your business-related ventures are likely to be in hover-mode right now. So don’t attempt to force it. This is a month to focus on anything related to spiffing things up. Get that haircut. Purchase a few new pieces for your wardrobe. Widen your horizons in whatever way you can. The energy of the month also supports getting down-and-dirty with your emotions—the highs and the lows. It’s all about figuring out what your emotions are—how and what you’re actually feeling—and then expressing your feelings and telling your truth in a healthy and clear way.
This can take on many forms, of course. So be ready for some potential quasi-emotional meltdowns, blockages or breakthroughs. The breakthroughs are obviously the goal. Yet you might need to experience a few of the former in order to make it out the other side.
Some new business opportunities may come your way around November 16th that hold distinct possibilities for future development. Your focused enthusiasm, creativity, and imagination make all the difference in brainstorming ideas and potentially getting these projects under way.
There may be some important groundwork to do with these projects starting around November 28th.
Be prepared to act—walk the walk and talk the talk.
This is still your year of taking action and for planting the seeds you want to see grow for years to come. So, when something comes your way that needs a “let’s do it!” or a “let’s shelf this idea,” take the appropriate action rather than languish in indecision or procrastination.
Just a word of caution: If there’s something you just know you’ve been avoiding, denying or procrastinating about—be it a divorce or a tweak in your resumé or business plan—if you can gain the resolve to follow-through on closing it out or changing it up, this is the time!
Often I observe that when we don’t clear the slate and really start fresh within the 1 Personal Year, whatever is left over or not cleared away tends to linger in some capacity for the entire next cycle. Yes, the next eight years. So, just sayin’. Take a deep breath and DO IT.
Overall, November opens the dance floor for you to do a little freestyle and perhaps a little improv! Tap into your sense of lightness and humor. Infuse that attitude into everything you do this month, even when (or especially when) things feel bleak or despairing. Identify the problem and yet become the solution. The energy of the 3 supports everything related to using your creative self-expression to inspire and to create emotional connection.
**Note: There are two schools of thought regarding the Personal Year.
The first is that it runs from January 1 – Dec. 31 of each calendar year.
The Personal Year is derived from adding together your MONTH of birth + the DAY of birth + the CURRENT YEAR.
Therefore, the logical flow is that it takes place for the calendar year for which it is being calculated.
**Remember: If you subscribe to this mode of thought, your Personal Month RESETS and CHANGES on January 1.
The second mode of thought is that the Personal Year runs from birthday to birthday, somewhat like a Solar Return in Astrology.
If you know my work at all, you’ll know that I’m someone who simply attempts to point out the different schools of thought and then the ball is in your court. It’s up to each of us to determine method makes the most sense to us and feels right or correct.
It’s like anything else in life. People can get really adamant about the correct diet (keto? paleo? vegan? gluten-free? vegetarian? and on and on).
You can go to different doctors with the same condition and get different courses of treatment. You can study Pythagorean numerology, or subscribe more to Chaldean numerology, or other modalities.
I don’t mean to belabor it, but it might surprise you how many people contact me and leave comments insisting that their particular methodology is the only right way to do it.
If you subscribe to the birthday-to-birthday way of thinking, you calculate this way: Using your birth date, add the MONTH + DAY + YEAR OF YOUR LAST BIRTHDAY
Just know that you’ll change into a new Personal Year on your BIRTHDAY, meaning that you’ll also change which Personal Year you read for your Forecast! This mode of thinking is more confusing until you wrap your brain around it. 💥
So I just want to be clear. It’s up to YOU to determine what school of thought feels right to you. And it’s ends up being just that: HOW IT FEELS. Sit with it. Ponder it. Feel into it.
If you feel the Personal Year runs from birthday-to-birthday, you will still reference the forecast for your Personal Year, yet the flow of it is a bit more wonky. Meaning: On your birthday, it switches gears and might feel as if it’s more of a dramatic or abrupt shift.
Either way, the forecast still applies to you. Just use your own mind, body, and spirit to make the most out of the information.
