4 Personal Year | May is a 9 Personal Month

🧭 Directive for May: This is the month to let go of some things that have outworn their usefulness in your life.

 

May is upon us and there’s no better time to circle back and offer a reminder about the key elements or themes you’re working with all year long in your 4 Personal Year.

I like to describe the Personal Year as knowing the theme to your party!  It’s so much more fun!

And I think it’s valuable to think of it in exactly that way.  As if you’re showing up for a party (that you happen to have to attend for an entire twelve months!), so most certainly you’d rather know if it’s a baby shower, birthday party, Bachelor (or Bachelorette) Party, Memorial service, or a drinking party with Charades.

Ah, yes. Don’t show up to the wrong party wearing the wrong outfit!

For you in your 4 or 22/4 Personal Year, the key themes are:  hard work and focused effort, dealing with limiting circumstances, and the solidification and implementation of longer-term goals.

If this is a Master 22/4 Personal Year for you, look back to the happenings and energy of the 2 Personal Year (and double it!) and mix that up with the foundations-setting energy of the 4.

And add a huge dash of spiritual growth and a focus on kicking up how you want your personal legacy to play out for you in this lifetime. (no pressure!  ha ha)

What I love about numerology is that it offers us the key elements that are always in play, supporting us and offering opportunities. So, if we know the themes and energies that are available to us, then we can focus and intentionally use that supportive energy to our benefit.

Either we can use the energy OR the energy can use us!


 

The month of May offers some finalizations and conclusions that may or may not be expected — and certainly may not be under your immediate control.

This feels vastly uncomfortable during your 4 Personal Year because you’re striving toward laying down the gauntlet and getting things under control.

Yet often this means — when we participate in the energy of the 4 — that we’re expecting it all to be linear and predictable. Dare I say, not so.

Yet don’t take this as ominous or bad! In fact, just the opposite! What I’m learning (and feel most of us are being invited to learn in the world right now) is that there is ultimate power in reinvention and in the ability to flow and go with transitions.

This transitional month is designed to get you closer to what you really want. It’ll offer opportunities to clear out some of the obstacles and clear out some of the old sticky stuff that could very well be holding up the progress you’re so intent on moving forward with this year.


 

The month of May is a time of surrender and completions — a month guided by the energy of the number 9. 

When the 9 shows up in a cycle (as it’s doing for you right now as the number of your Personal Month), its job is to move the needle for closure on certain things that are aching to be finalized.

May is a time for certain things to fall away. Yet the impulse might certainly be to reach out and grab for them as they disintegrate, leaving a strange sense of loss, if not emotional angst.

Your catch phrase for the month: “Every new beginning is another new beginning’s end.”


 

An enterprise or a phase of work may conclude during the week of May 6th. In addition, you also may reach a parting of the ways with a colleague or friend between May 9th and 15th. 

Either or both of these endings are likely to give you a good deal of freedom you hadn’t anticipated could even exist in your world. So lean into that aspect of the release as you walk through it.

The exit of these people or projects will remove a good deal of restriction you’ve been feeling for quite some time now. Just remember that as you work through the process it’ll take time to regroup and move forward.

It’s going to test your reserves to keep matters on an even keel, particularly between May 18th and the end of the month. Brace yourself!

Take command while releasing expectations of solid plans and outcomes. You’ll need to rely on a strong sense of flexibility, which will feel even more difficult than usual this year.


 

You may have been dealing with some health-related matters last month and perhaps some of that “proper care and maintenance” is spilling over into May as a priority.

It’s valuable to see how the month of May offers enormous opportunities to remind yourself to remain open — open to possibilities.  Open to letting go of what needs to go. Open to seeing things with fresh and open eyes.  Open to exploring a slightly different pathway in order to get where you want and need to go.

This is a pivotal month for purging what is no longer vital or useful to your overall endgame for the year. Yes, for the year.  Remember, the 4 Personal Year demands that you step back and consider the long-game.

Do what needs to be done with the full knowledge that it’s mandatory that you clear and organize your plate, so to speak, before you can fully engage with your next steps. Enjoy the release and relief you’ll get as you invite some moments of closure during the weeks of May.


Master 22/4 Personal Year

 

For those in their 22/4 Personal Year, May marks a “Come to Jesus” time where you’re offered the stark truth or the “cold hard facts.” This can show up as a project or relationship that simply isn’t “the one.”

It can also offer some “Eureka” moments where you’ll suddenly see the light, an epiphany (so to speak) and know in your heart and soul that something vital needs to be repositioned.
