7 Personal Year | March is a 1 Personal Month
🤔 Reflection for March: How can you find ways to jump-start anything you’ve been thinking about putting into action?
March is a number 1 Personal Month for those of you experiencing a 7 Personal Year. How to optimize the energies of the contemplative 7 Personal Year with the independence and initiation of the 1 Personal Month?
You’ll most likely feel somewhat pushed-and-pulled in March given that it’s an initiating month with a focus on independence and bold moves forward.
This is seed-planting month. It’s a time to define yourself and follow your unique pathway. Or at least allow yourself to veer off the familiar beaten path.
The energy of your 7 Personal Year begs the question: Who am I on a soul level? Why did I check into physical form on planet Earth right here and right now?
The energy of your 1 Personal Month begs the same question, yet with a more real-world spin. Who am I in this real material world in which I find myself? How do I identify with my Ego? What is my level of self-confidence on a scale of 1 – 10?
These two similar yet disparate questions will merge right now.
March is perfect for spending time meditating, contemplating art or nature or simply sharpening your skill set in any way you desire.
By March 9th or so, please spend some time by yourself doing something that feels good and as though it’s feeding you from the inside out.
Take the time and grab any opportunity you can to study or research areas that you’ve been putting off or on hold. Choose to work on intellectual affairs or spiritual matters. It’s always research time during the 7 Personal Year.
It’s time to collect the data you’ve been considering — are you wanting to change careers or jobs? Then this is a superb month to reboot your resumé or CV and possibly do some added research about places you’d like to apply. Or it’s supportive of taking some new training to add to your skill-set.
Thinking about going back to school? Get serious about applying. Devote a certain amount of time this month to getting all of your application materials together.
Do you have a strong desire to open up to attracting your “one” or to up the ante with your current relationship and feel the need to delve into some new relationship-building tools, no matter what they might be? March supports your efforts to get real with yourself and act with self-confidence.
Or are you feeling empty on a spiritual level and hitting a point of real and urgent need to define your sense of meaning and purpose? Are you experiencing a “dark night of the soul” and know that this is a deep point of reinvention and yet the journey has only just begun? This is the bigger kahuna of the 7 Personal Year and will be an underlying theme all year long.
Perhaps this 7 Personal Year doesn’t feel slower for you. I have found that life swirls and twirls at a clip, even during the 7 Personal Year of introspection and soul-searching.
A good way to understand it is to think into the notion that many of the activities you’re involved in during your 7 Personal Year are — optimally — extensions of something you already put into play.
For instance, you could be a writer. You had some great ideas last year, got a few things in line. Now your agent calls and says someone is interested in your book, screenplay or manuscript yet they want some re-writes.
So, you can feel busier than ever, yet the work is still in process. It’s still in the creation case, it’s just a little father down the line. You can work your butt off this year writing, re-writing, and getting things in line. You might even have a great idea for a new project that you start writing or researching.
See how that might work?
Then if your numerology plays out as I would bet it would, next year (your career and finance-focused 8) is when your manuscript actually gets published or produced. Next year is implementation and launch time. This is creation and research time.
Does that make sense? And of course that’s just one example.
A yoga teacher of mine carried this theme for several months as the foundation for his classes. And that theme is: “Rest as awareness.”
This is a heady concept and yet perfect for your 7 Personal Year.
It doesn’t mean that you can only be aware when you rest or stand still. It doesn’t mean that rest equals awareness. It means that we have the capability to rest as awareness during any activity and through any emotion. It’s simply a matter of desire and practice to place mindfulness in that container. Or to point ourselves into that direction.
March brings you a surge of forward momentum in an otherwise rather heady year where you’re learning to (as Numerologist Dr. Juno Jordan says) “develop the right state of mind.”
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
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:Â 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.
