Personal Year 1
A Year of New Beginnings
The seed year — plant boldly.
A Personal Year 1 opens a brand-new nine-year cycle. Whatever you begin now carries unusual weight, because you're setting the tone for the entire decade ahead. The energy leans hard toward independence, courage and fresh starts — it favours the people who act rather than wait.
This is the year to plant the seed: launch the project, make the move, start the thing you've been circling. You may feel more self-reliant and forward-driven than usual, and that's the point — the universe is asking you to lead your own life rather than follow someone else's script.
It can feel lonely at times; beginnings often do. Trust it. What you start this year, however small it looks now, is the root system of everything that grows over the next eight.
