4 Personal Year | March is a 7 Personal Month
🤔 Reflection for March: How can you find ways to carve out time for contemplation, planning, and organizing?
March is a number 7 Personal Month for those of you experiencing a 4 or 22/4 Personal Year. March is the time to study, research, and collect the necessary knowledge and data that will inform the developing situation you’ve been considering. If all your data feels like a green light, then make preparations to launch your efforts in April.
March is the time to go inward and allow some time to ponder, question, and plan. Talk about a month for the slow boil.
It’s your 4 Personal Year after all, a time where you’re getting everything organized and color-coded. Are you considering a new venture, a relationship shift or expanding an existing project?
It’s your task to lay the foundation for security and lasting systems for the future, whatever that means for you at this time in your life.
You may want to spend a good part of the month on your own contemplating your desires, motives, and what you want to see come to fruition.
Perhaps a short retreat is in the mix. Or you sign-on for that extended training or workshop you’ve been putting off. Is it time to get serious about finding a therapist or to explore different healing modalities for a consistent health issue or nagging spiritual crisis?
This is a month of planning and pondering rather than “get it done right now.” This is a time for collecting the data, analyzing the data, and then making decisions about how to actually use the data.
To put this into practical terms, this is a time where you’re being called to gather more information and then take time to digest the information rather than pulling the trigger on something. This can be through actual research for a problem or project you’re concerned with — by reading a few books, taking an on-line course, digging into some ideas about how to reconfigure something that you’re working on.
This isn’t the best month for igniting something. It’s a better time for tweaking, planning, filling in gaps, and organizing. This month, get it in order and add richness and depth to it. Next month is more optimal for launching and initiating.
This is a perfect time to recalibrate on an internal level.
What does that mean exactly? It means to invite and allow yourself to ponder your life’s bigger questions. Who am I? What do I want? How am I doing? What’s working for me? What’s holding me back? How am I doing with all of this weird uncertainty and transition that the past few years have thrown at me?
The energy of the number 7 — the vibe guiding your month — is spiritually probing and yet it can also offer opportunities to retreat from ourselves in various ways. This escape-hatch can show up through any superficial activity we might use as a default when we start heading into some uncomfortable places within our psyche.
This can show up as obsessive thoughts, turning to drugs or alcohol for solace, or scrolling through social media for hours on end. You know. The usual ways to numb or opt-out.
The number 7 prepares you for an eventual outcome. It’s not about an immediate quantifiable result. So this might also be a theme for the month.
Allow the time necessary — possibly during the weeks of March 8th or 22nd — to engage in the “proper care and maintenance” of your relationships.
Another area to be highlighted this month has to do with your health. Get those check-ups scheduled and follow through with them. If you need to have a little dental work done (or any other procedure) that will require a few days of downtime, make sure you mark out the time this month.
Master 22/4 Personal Year
If this is your 22/4 Personal Year, understand that there’s always an added intensity on every realm. The occurrences all year long highlight additional emotional and intuitive sensitivity and spiritual lessons and opportunities to step more firmly upon your spiritual path.
It can feel like you’re riding a roller coaster, yet a weird one that goes really fast, screeches to a halt, and then chugs along at a snails pace.
If you feel a certain sense of nervous tension or feel that this year holds some deeply profound and unspeakable levels of intensity for you, you’re most likely knee-deep into the Master 22 energy — a double number 2 vibe.
A quick example of how this looks mathematically:
If your DOB is June 17 you would calculate the Personal Year like this:
June = 6
Day = 17; 1 + 7 = 8
Year (2024) = 8
6 + 8 + 8 = 22
This is a Master 22/4 Personal Year
It’s time to tart looking at your life with a longer-range lens. The year insists that you not only take yourself seriously (#BIG-GOALS), it also demands that you truly lean into a begin building upon higher spiritual principles.
The 22 Personal Year offers heightened spiritual advancement coupled with a lot of hard-work and effort — not to mention some annoying and recurring mud being thrown into the spokes!
As you settle in to your spiritually-activated 22/4 Personal Year, know that forging a spiritual pathway to your material success is the “core” theme you’re working with.
Yet the double 2 (22) offers a competing agenda.
You’re also feeling emotionally and energetically sensitive and might struggle between needing to be laser-focused on work and getting things done and then feel very much drawn to helping and being supportive behind the scenes within both your relationship life and your professional life.
The moral of the story for your 4 Personal Year is this: Slow and steady — with breaks and self-care — wins the race. March is your month to unplug a bit.
Give yourself a permission slip to take some time off and recharge. This is the month to take some time for yourself and to contemplate next steps.
CONTEMPLATIVE THOUGHT FOR MARCH:
It feels downright wrong not to mention all of the Astrology that’s happening right now! On February 28, 2025 SEVEN PLANETS fell into alignment, which is, well, it’s a big deal!
See what my colleagues and Astrology experts The AstroTwins have to say about it!
March itself is a wild and dynamic month of Mercury in Retrograde from March 15 to April 7 , not to mention two eclipses. And I’m sure there are other aspects that I’m not mentioning here, and yet you get the picture.
There’s A LOT of cosmic energies being shaken (or stirred!) up in March! So just understand that all of us will benefit from going and flowing right now. Release expectations (remember the 9 Universal Year!) and be open to possibility.

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.
