5 Personal Year | September is a 5 Personal Month
🧠Directive for September: This is a month that serves as a true pivot-point in your life!
September is a crescendo month in your 5 Personal Year!Â
September is a peak month to reflect and act upon all of your 5 Personal Year themes of freedom, adventure, fearlessness, versatility, sensuality, and change.
Simply put: This is a time where the energy (and issues!) related to your personal year come to a peak. If sudden shifts, unexpected twists and turns, and profound opportunities scare you—then get out the barf-bag.
Many “outside of the box” experiences are on tap, particularly around September 9th or 18th.
This promises to be a distinct pivot-point in your gyrating 5 Personal Year.
The thing is, you’re faced with the necessity to make changes that have been leading you out of your comfort zone, so perhaps you’ve been putting them off and placing them on the back burner. Or more likely, you’ve been juggling so many things that it’s been difficult (if not impossible) to gain clarity around what direction to commit to.
During the 5 Personal Year, new people, places, ideas, opportunities, and new all-the-things come at you like blazing comets. Most are meant to fly right on by and on to their own destination, yet your presence for a moment in time is crucial in their ultimate destination. Yet for you personally, you’ve been sifting through mind/body and heart/soul as you weigh in on determining a new course, a new trajectory.
In September, stuff starts to shake out. Action must be taken. Indecision, no more. The energy of the 5 (which you’re feeling with double intensity this month) thrives on constructive change, movement, and the focused manifestation of all things related to creating heightened levels of freedom in your life. This is your chance to shift your reality to be in more alignment with the real you and with what you actually want in your life.
Although you might feel a scattered focus, your task is to stop being sidetracked by the bright-and-shiny objects. Focus, focus, and more focus.
Just so you don’t think I’m a killjoy, may I also mention that September is a month for fun! Your sex appeal can’t be contained in September, so dive in and enjoy the romance that comes your way, particularly enhanced during the week of September 19th.
A vacation or travel for business or pleasure might come into view around September 25th. Yet with any luck and good grace, depending on where you’re located, you can find a way to shake it up with some kind of travel right now.
Oddly enough, you’ll need to initiate changes or take advantage of significant changes started by other people. An unusual agreement may start a domino effect of unexpected responsibility, although the full force of that responsibility might not be fully comprehended until next year.
The energy of the 5 challenges you in the areas of getting bored too quickly and giving up prematurely or hanging on to a project or relationship with ambivalence far after the shelf life has expired. If you opt for self-indulgence, you won’t gain the wisdom and momentum that’s meant for you this month.
If you hang on to something that isn’t what you need anymore, then you’ll be working with feelings of stagnation and maybe a bit of numbness and feeling of frustration and confinement. You’re literally/figuratively involved in a very real time of metamorphosis. I’m still enough of a “word nerd” that I look up definitions. I looked up the word “metamorphosis” and here are a few of the descriptions:
- Biology. a profound change in form from one stage to the next in the life history of an organism, as from the caterpillar to the pupa and from the pupa to the adult butterfly.
- a complete change of form, structure, or substance, as transformation by magic or witchcraft.
- any complete change in appearance, character, circumstances, etc.
- a form resulting from any such change.
And then there’s always Franz Kafka’s short novel of the same name, where Gregor Samsa wakes one morning having transformed from a human man into an insect. Make any meaning you might want to from the story (and there have been many papers and dissertations doing just that!), yet the reason I bring this up in your transformative 5 Personal Year is to highlight that way in which you might feel almost alien—almost as though the year has been spent with you trying to escape a trap, struggling to free yourself from the confines of whatever you feel is deeply tethering you.
While the 5 Personal Year is noted as a freewheeling, adventurous, and sensual time, I also find that it is a deep time of internal struggle in regards to the deeper levels of consciousness and how we do and don’t feel we’re acting with Free Will. Not to get too ponderous on you, yet there it is.
This month, you’ll be tested in learning how to flow with changing circumstances, embrace the unexpected, and look at life as an adventure. September is the apex for you with the theme of focused and forward moving transformation. Put David Bowie’s “Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes” on long-play. It’s time to break the mold and start creating a new one!
I see the month of September as a month of culmination of all that you’ve been working with in your 5 Personal Year. You’re at the top of the mountain and are now situating yourself to traverse down the other side of the mountain and into the energies that are coming up for you in your upcoming 6 Personal Year in 2025.
Yet not so fast! You still have the final three months where, if you’re somewhat sensitive energetically, you can feel the breeze of the next cycle coming to greet you. Yet you still have the next several months to really play out the highest and best use of your ever-changing 5 Personal Year.
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.
