6 Personal Year | February is an 8 Personal Month

🤔  Reflection for February:  How can you focus on galvanizing your financial plan and mapping out the necessary steps to get from where you are to where you want to be?

 

One of my daughter’s favorite meme’s is:  “Well, well, well. If it isn’t the consequences of my own actions.” 

This can be a humorous (and sobering!) entry-point into some of the deeper contemplation you’ll face this month.

During your 6 Personal Year of relationship evaluation across the board, this is the time to see both your areas of strength and review the areas where you might need further development and renewed focus and commitment.

 


FEBRUARY IS A MONTH THAT WILL TEST YOUR (WILL)POWER AND COMMITMENT


 

The energy of the number 8—the vibe for your month—promotes a certain intensity across the board, so don’t expect February to feel light and airy. This is a testing month for you where you’ll be pushed into stepping up and stepping into your power, however that might show up in your world for you at this given moment.

It’s all business for you in February.  During these four weeks, you’ll have amped up experiences that play into and intensify where you would benefit from stepping up and taking yourself seriously.

There’s an intense spotlight on your financial life and how you would like to improve it, change it, or at least tweak it. Around February 2nd or 5th, a new opportunity may come to your attention with unusual potential for expansion.

During your family-focused 6 Personal Year, you might receive some unexpected support from a family member. Or you might mitigate interference of some significant family matters that may conflict with your agenda, particularly during the week of February 18th. Adjust your expectations and plans so that both business and home/family matters can be dealt with fully.

In February, the focal point is on your work or career and your overall financial health. Dig in, move it forward, and make it a priority this month.


 

CONTEMPLATIVE THOUGHT FOR FEBRUARY:

 

I listened to a brief podcast featuring relationship expert Esther Perel (a powerful 8 Life Path).

Here’s a quote from her that I’m grabbing as a mantra or affirmation for 2025 (and beyond…).

“CERTAINTY IS THE ENEMY OF CHANGE.”

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.  💥


 

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.
