7 Personal Year | November is a 9 Personal Month
November is a 9 Personal Month:
This is the month for closures, exits, and wrapping something up.
November is guided by the energy of the number 9—all about completions, letting go, and transitions. Even if it doesn’t quite feel like it yet, it’s all opening—it’s all there. This is a month for deep introspection and for letting go of whatever we’re holding onto for dear life that needs to be freed.
Can it be!? More introspection? More levels of surrender and letting go?! By now, I’m sure when you hear me say that, you’re throwing any kind of blunt object at me!
It’s almost ready to take form and shape. It’s ready to be birthed.
You’ll feel heightened intuition right now and so be grounded and ready to listen to the subtleties. Know that your intuitive voice doesn’t speak with as much volume as the practical/brain/earthly voice.
As Steven Spielberg says: “Your intuition doesn’t shout, it whispers.” So quiet down and listen. And the trick of it is not to try to listen. Just relax. Just clear yourself. Just be.
I read a great quote the other day that truly applies here: “We’re called Human BEINGS, not Human DOINGS.”
Haha. Indeed.
A phase of your inner growth that you’ve been working with all year will culminate during the week of November 7th.
You might find yourself shedding something that’s worn-out its welcome in your life. For real and for good. What would it look like if your life took a direction you could never, ever have possibly dreamed it would or could take?
Overall, November is an intriguing month for you.
It’s as though you’ll be able to take a step back and look deeply into the mirror and make healthy, detached decisions about your life. Or alternately, you can possibly feel victimized and sad.
You can convince yourself to cling onto what’s no longer working for you. As someone said (is it Paulo Coelho?): “Sometimes your mind needs more time to accept what your heart already knows.”
It’s time to pull together the different strands that you’ve been working with throughout the year.
On or about November 16th, some spiritual insights that you’ve been working on may finally gel for you and you’ll receive an “Ah-ha!” moment.
Expect terminations or regrouping of some important matters or significant relationships sometime between November 18th and 27th.
You’re being offered opportunities to put some of the ponderings and issues of the year to bed and prepare yourself to “snap out of it” and come back to terra firma with both feet firmly planted on the ground.
Next year is the beginning of what I call a three-year “push” time—it’s all about taking action, focusing on the material aspects of life. The year after is earmarked for releasing the old to make room for the new. The year after is the start of a new cycle.
I say this not as a crystal ball! Far from it. Just to outline a basic trajectory so that you can really know and understand that this is a significant transition and transformation that doesn’t happen overnight. There’s power in pacing yourself.
You might feel disconcertingly emotional this month. Allow it. Invite it. Be it. Create your own private space to work with these deep emotional moments and transitions.
It’s vital and important that you face them, embrace them, move through them, and express them in an empowering way.
Understand that November still isn’t the time to start anything new.
I know, I know. You’re itching to move forward and yet the timing isn’t right yet. This isn’t to say that you can’t be involved in life and doing things.
What it does mean is that the energy of November isn’t supportive of taking flight. It’s supportive of wrapping up loose ends, saying good-byes, and letting go of what needs to go. You’re not quite ready to launch.
Whenever I mention endings, people cringe. I hope that you aren’t feeling that way. Know that when something—perhaps an ongoing endeavor or relationship—doesn’t exactly work out right now, it’s always for your higher and greater good. Deep down you know this, yet going through the transition is still difficult.
Think of it more like a commencement. It’s a month where you’re graduating from one segment of life and moving into another. It can have its bittersweet moments, yet the endings mark new beginnings.
Although you may have wanted to avoid these endings, you may find that they give you considerably more freedom than you would have ever expected.
Your key for November?
Be sensitive, understanding, and compassionate—with others and, more specifically—with yourself. You’ll feel compelled to take inventory of the things you have gratitude for in your life.
You might consider writing out a Life Review for yourself in order to illustrate what you’ve learned, what you’ve endured, what your stumbling blocks are and where you have scored major victories. This is a great time to see where you’ve been so that you can become much clearer about where you want to go.
Next month, new doors open. This month is the time to walk through and close a few doors behind you.
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.
