4 Personal Year | December is a 7 Personal Month

End-of-Year Reflection 🎁

December holds out a more pensive four-weeks for you. It’s time for reflection, introspection, and invites you to take inventory of all you’ve accomplished during the past almost twelve month cycle.

Take time to acknowledge how everything you’ve experienced in your 4 or 22/4 Personal Year has established a solid foundation for you to launch into greater success in the years to come.

It’s been a year of work, effort, and a strange brew of tenacity and endurance.

Given that it’s the holiday season, most likely you’re going to do your duty and show up to some of the festivities, yet most of that might feel like “whatever.” You might feel physically, emotionally, and energetically tapped out right about now.


 

December brings you to the close of the year in a rather introspective way.  Rewards come to those who wait — who says delayed gratification isn’t deliciously sweet?

If you’re honest with yourself, your true desire will be to curl up with a good book and enjoy some unplugged time.

If you’ve been doing the work all year long, you’ll begin to reap the rewards and benefits. If you’ve been sidestepping your duties, you’ll perhaps feel adrift, frustrated, or unproductive.

Be that as it may, December is set up for you as a month to recharge, reflect, and regenerate.

Since it’s holiday time, you’ll have to jockey with social expectations that you engage and your own strong desire to hibernate—or a least be a little on the quieter side.

You’re undeniably feeling the verve of the up and coming energy of freedom and adventure that the number 5 Personal Year brings to you starting next month.

Yet now is prep time, not action time.


 

Understand that there’s no need for urgent or rigorous activity at the moment. This entire year has been a test in reorganization. And so in many ways, December offers you some “white space”— some empty space that is opening between your old boundaries and your new ones. You’re smack dab in the middle of a new framework of potentials that are percolating and coming into manifestation.

December isn’t the time to dive into it all precipitously. There are still some growth experiences, conclusions, and new desires coming into play.

This actually might be a time where you get your office organized and ready for the New Year. Perhaps you’re feeling called to teach something you know a lot about and feel passionate about as well.


 

As you leave your 4 or 22/4 Personal Year and enter into your 5 Personal Year, take some time to consider what was the locus of your foundations-setting year. What did you focus on? What were your over-arching intentions?

Did you find yourself feeling more at home by moving or remodeling? Did you move one or more of your projects from point A to point B (or F or Z?)

Perhaps you struggled with a health concern. Maybe you dealt with some weird family stuff that kept coming at you all year long.

Maybe you’ve even had a year of major accomplishment and you’re beginning to reap the rewards for all your tenacity and hard work. I trust that’s the case!

You’re moving into a new year where you’ll be investigating your sense of freedom — what does freedom look and feel like to you? What levels of freedom do you want to cultivate?

The upcoming year is a time devoted to shaking it up, spreading your wings, and being open to dramatic change.

Your upcoming 5 Personal Year (2025) will have you tapping into more of a fun-loving spirit. It’s going to be a time where you can actually put “Having Fun” on your “To-Do” List. Be open to the unknown and curious about things that might be off your beaten path.  Start packing your suitcase!

I’m dropping some vital astrological information into this forecast. Although I’m not an astrologer (I leave that to my astrology experts, primarily among them Tali & Ophira Edut “The AstroTwins”), as a numerologist, I find that the information both numerology and astrology offer is always intimately connected.

Astrologically, we’re making a massive shift.

As of November 19, 2024, the planet Pluto moved from Capricorn (where it declared residency for the past 16 years — since 2008) and into the sign of Aquarius.  The AstroTwins offer this outline:

Pluto’s upcoming journey through Aquarius, a sign of revolution, innovation, and the collective. From November 19 to Jan. 19, 2044, Pluto will ignite a new era of transformation, one that could radically redefine power structures and usher in a future where equality and freedom take center stage.

Pluto’s return to Aquarius could usher in another wave of societal transformation, and astrologers already feel it brewing.

While that might seem like a far-off ideal, Pluto has been known to deliver extreme shifts when it enters a new sign. While Capricorn clings to tradition, Aquarius is all about breaking free from convention and embracing the future.

The last time Pluto moved through Aquarius was from 1778 to 1798, and the world went through seismic shifts, from the American Revolution to the French Revolution. This era also dovetailed with the early days of the Industrial Revolution, which completely changed how societies functioned as we replaced farmed and handcrafted goods with machine-made and processed ones.

Pluto’s return to Aquarius could usher in another wave of societal transformation, and astrologers already feel it brewing. There could be a push toward systems that are more egalitarian, tech-driven, and inclusive as we move away from top-down structures to a more collective, grassroots energy.

With that said, this coincides with a powerful and transitional 9 Universal Year. If you’d like to know more about the 9 Universal Year and how to maximize its potential, see my 2025 Numerology Guide.


Those of you who’ve followed me for a while know that I’m someone who offers different schools of thought as they show up in numerology—pointing out different modes of calculating the numbers and disparate ways different numerologist’s do things.

I have always pointed out that there are two schools of thought about the Personal Year. I’m hesitant to do constant reminders about it because, let’s be honest, it can be confusing! And let’s be honest again: Many people just want the 25-second byte of info without thinking much about it.

Be that as it may, I am going to remind you that there are two schools of thought about the Personal Year. Most numerologist’s use the January 1 – December 31st mode of thinking. Others proffer that the Personal Year is more like a solar return (for those of you who’re astrology-minded), instead running from birthday-to-birthday.

If you’re born at the first of the year, this doesn’t effect you as much. Yet once you hit mid-year and beyond, this can really make a difference. And how do you know what’s right and what’s not right?  BY HOW YOU FEEL! It’s up to each of us to feel it out and see what feels right to us individually.

**The key to avoid as much confusion if you want to explore the birthday-to-birthday scenario:  You would calculate your Personal Year based on the year of YOUR LAST BIRTHDAY. So if you’re reading this right now and your birthday is November 11, you would calculate your Personal Year by adding the Month + Day + LAST YEAR (2023).

In this example, it is 11 + 11 + 7 (2 + 0 + 2 + 3 = 7) = 29; and 2+9 = 11.  Up until 11/11, you’re in an 11/2 Personal Year and then you CHANGE INTO THE 3 PERSONAL YEAR on your birthday. Then you begin to read the forecast for the 3 Personal Year. Make Sense?  I don’t want to rock your numerology world, yet it’s only fair to consider both options and see what works for you.
