5 Personal Year | March is an 8 Personal Month

🤔  Reflection for March: How can you allow yourself to get serious about finances and focus on expanding any career or business-related activities?

 

March is a number 8 Personal Month for those of you experiencing a 5 Personal Year. I have to come clean with you. While the 5 Personal Year offers ample opportunities for change and transformation, it’s not without its rough edges. There’s quite a bit of velocity to be experienced during a 5 Personal Year and it can be somewhat disorienting sometimes.

Numerologically speaking, these first two months of the year haven’t really offered the full frenetic richness that the freedom-filled 5 brings into your world.

Why?

January was a month where responsibility was at the forefront, which is somewhat counter-intuitive with the fun-loving 5.

Last month brought in the contemplative and lower-energy of the 7 to prep you for the expansion heading your way. Did you give in a take a few power-naps in February? Just know that you might not quite be feeling the full ignition of the 5 Personal Year quite yet!

 

Even so, you should be feeling the energy of change and are beginning to expect the unexpected. It’s the year to embrace all that’s new and it’s definitely a year for change and transformation.

Even though there’s an element of uncertainty, the month of March pressures you to plan a definite goal for your advancement and then be resourceful enough to tweak and adjust along the way—because at the end of the day, you’ll be required to have something to show for it.

Understand that you’ll be required to step into your sense of self-confidence and empower yourself in every way possible. It’s certainly the time to check out business and financial possibilities that come your way.

You’re thinking finances this month, even more than usual.

It’s time to consider new opportunities — possibly between March 6th and 20th — so that both the new and existing prospects will be far more in alignment with what you really want.

 

March is your month to bring out the most business-like aspects of yourself.

During the week of March 14th, you’ll enjoy meeting new friends and potential business associates, so make sure to say “yes” to invitations and connect with other people in whatever way you can. Overall, this is a “movers and shakers” month for you.

Since the number 5 is all about freedom through self-discipline, part of the task when engaging with the 5 is to face fears and blaze past (or through) them. And while that might sound so easy when I say it here, certainly as it applies in your own life, it won’t feel so easy-peazy.

And fear can show up in ways that surprise you.

You’ll feel so incredibly more in line with the magic of the number 5 when you minimize distractions from the bright and shiny objects and find some focus and determination to create more freedom in whatever aspect of your life you want.

This is the month to buckle down and get things accomplished.

 

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:  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.  đź’Ą

 

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.
