2 Personal Year | February is a 4 Personal Month
🤔 Reflection for February: How can you gain a different and expansive perspective about the foundations in your life?
February’s guided by the energy of the number 4 and this requires some hunkering down. This is your month to make work and organization a priority. It’s the time to get things in order and to get your vision board (or business plan) out, front and center.
This month, if you find yourself needing to deal with contracts, agreements or similar legal work, expect delays and extra negotiations. Bring in the experts to help clarify and navigate anything that you’re uncomfortable with or don’t altogether understand.
Around February 6th, keep a close watch on your projects and take advantage of any shifts that allow some forward momentum. When the 4 shows up (as it does for you as the energy of your month), take extra efforts to do your research and dig below the surface.
This month, it’s all about setting up the foundations you need to support you in order to flourish during the year. Don’t get stuck or bogged down in the myopic details—yet pay attention to the details. I know. What a juggle.
FEBRUARY IS A MONTH TO GET REAL WITH YOURSELF
Be prepared for delays and slowdowns throughout the month, but particularly on February 18th.
Meanwhile, pull some focus onto your health picture. The number 4 governs health and so this is a month where a few health issues might flare up or become a priority.
Don’t let this alarm you! The 4 isn’t the number of bad health, it’s the number of health maintenance. Why? Because the 4 is a hard-driving and accomplishment-driven energy, often to the point of burn-out of exhaustion. When the 4 shows up, make sure to pay attention to health through scheduling down-time for relaxation, nutrition, and some non-results oriented fun. Take time to relax.
February’s set up for you to painstakingly organize and prioritize. Get a longer-range view in front of you. It won’t happen on its own. This is the month to take the time and responsibility to get real and do the grunt-work.
Master 11/2 Personal Year
If you’re experiencing an 11/2 Personal Year, then you might wonder what the heck all this talk is of slowing down during the 2 Personal Year.
With the double number 1, chances are you’re not slowing down a lot, yet there will be many times where you will have weird delays, unexpected hiccups, and odd detours.
The Master number 11 also brings a certain force that can be intense in the spiritual illumination realm. You might keep in mind that the year holds out lots of gems for you if you can slow down enough to “get” them.
And sometimes these gems will show up in what initially doesn’t feel fun or illuminating whatsoever. They can show up as challenges or experiences that force openings, healing, and different approaches.
I also like to observe that when you’re experiencing an 11/2 Personal Year, there’s a lot more going on underneath the surface that it appears.
Many times the huge mind/body/spirit changes that are initiated this year won’t become apparent or obvious to you until months from now or even several years down the road.
CONTEMPLATIVE THOUGHT FOR FEBRUARY:
I listened to a brief podcast featuring relationship expert Esther Perel (a powerful 8 Life Path).
Here’s a quote from her that I’m grabbing as a mantra or affirmation for 2025 (and beyond…).
“CERTAINTY IS THE ENEMY OF CHANGE.”
>>If you want a reminder about the nuts-and-bolts of the 2 Personal Year, watch this video.
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:Â 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.
**For those of you who are new to the Monthly Forecast, each month I share pics of my Grand-Dogs! These are my daughters’ dogs: Oliver is the senior gentleman (with one blue eye and one brown eye). Oscar is the Wire-Haired Fox Terrier. Rio is a Pitbull-Mix. They are the Dynamic Trio!
