About your Personal Reading

This reading was composed for you personally, and is based on your full name at birth, your date of birth, and the name you now use to introduce yourself. Please check your birth data on the title page to make sure the names and date of birth used are correct.

If you have two or more middle names or last names, you may find the names strung together. This is necessary to make Transit and Essence cycles function correctly. For example, the name John Patrick Henry Hancock would appear on the title page as John PatrickHenry Hancock.

Your Personal Numerology Reading describes all aspects of your chart as they are understood in numerology, accurately and in-depth.

Each chapter starts with a short introduction telling you where this particular number is found and how it affects you. This is followed by the number itself. Often, you will find a double digit number followed by a single digit.

The meaning of your number is then explained in easy to read language. You don't need to know anything about numerology to be able to enjoy and benefit from this reading.

If you feel this reading would be a nice gift to someone, or if you are interested in other numerology products and services, see the order forms in the back of this book.

I hope you will enjoy your reading.

If ever there was a moment of total transformation, it was the moment of your birth. In that instant, you stepped through a door in time into a new reality -- the reality of human life. The most important number in your numerology chart is based on the date of your birth, the moment when the curtain goes up in your life.

Even at that moment, you were a person with your own unique character, as unique as your DNA. Everything that is you existed in potential, much like a play that is about to begin. Your entire life exists as a potential that has been prepared for. You have ultimate freedom to do with your life as you like: To fulfill its potential completely, or to make some smaller version of yourself. It all depends upon your effort and commitment. You make the decisions to fulfill, to whatever extent, the potential life that exists within you. That is your choice. In this sense, the possible you is implicit during the moment of your birth.

The Life Path number gives us a broad outline of the opportunities, challenges, and lessons we will encounter in this lifetime. Your Life path is the road you are traveling. It reveals the opportunities and challenges you will face in life. Your Life Path number is the single most important information available in your Personality Chart!

You are gifted with natural leadership and the capacity to accumulate great wealth. You have great talent for management in all areas of life, especially in business and financial matters. You understand the material world; you intuitively know what makes virtually any enterprise work. Your talent lies not with the bookkeeping or petty management, but with the greater vision, it's purpose, and long range goals.

You are a visionary and a bit reckless. You possess the ability to inspire people to join you in your quest, but often they are incapable of seeing what you see. Therefore, those around you need your continual guidance, inspiration, and encouragement. You must prod them into action and direct them along the lines of your vision.

You attract financial success more than any other Life Path, but effort is required.

Your challenge in life is to achieve a high degree of detachment, to understand that power and influence must be used for the benefit of mankind. Those born with the Number 8 Life Path who do not understand the real and relative value of money are bound to suffer the consequences of greed; they run the risk of losing it all!

You must learn to bounce back from failures and defeats. You have the character and resilience of a true survivor. It is not uncommon for a person with your Life Path to experience major reverses, including bankruptcies, financial failure, but you also have the talent and the sheer guts to make more than one fortune, and build many successful enterprises. More than most people, your failures in marriage can be extremely expensive for you.

Despite the difficulties that life presents, you will experience the satisfaction that comes from material wealth and the power that comes with it.

Business, finance, real estate, law, science (particularly history, archeology, and physics), publishing, and the management of large institutions are among the vocational fields that suit you best. You are naturally attracted to positions of influence and leadership -- Politics, social work, and teaching are among the many other areas where your abilities can shine.

You are a good judge of character, which aids you well in attracting the right people to you.

Most 8s like large families and sometimes tend to keep others dependent longer than necessary. Although jovial in nature you are not demonstrative in showing your love and affection.

The desire for luxury and comfort is especially strong in you. Status is very important. You must be careful to avoid living above your means.

Your Life Path treads that dangerous ground where power lies -- and can corrupt. You may become too self important, arrogant, and domineering, thinking that your way is the only way. This leads inevitably to isolation and conflict. The people you run the risk of hurting most are those you love, your family and friends.

Be careful of becoming stubborn, intolerant, overbearing, and impatient. These characteristics may be born early in the life of an 8 Life Path, who often learn these negative traits after suffering under a tyrannical parent or a family burdened by repressive religious or intellectual dogmas.

Those with the 8 Life Path usually possess a strong physique, which is a symptom of their inherent strength and resiliency.

The day you were born bears great significance in understanding who you are and where your talents lie. The day of birth indicates some special talent you possess. It is a gift to you that will help you along your Life's Path. Your day of birth is one of your four core numbers -- the Life Path, Expression, Heart's Desire being the other three. It is the least significant of the four core numbers, but perhaps the most finite, in that it reveals a specific ability you possess in a marked degree.

You possess a high degree of artistic talent that emerges in virtually everything you take seriously, your home, your cooking, the way you express yourself, and any artistic endeavor you commit to.

You are highly imaginative and quick-witted. You can be the life of a party, entertaining people with stories, jokes, or witty remarks. You have plenty of vitality, your body heals quicker than most people's.

You are especially talented in the verbal and writing skills. These areas, as well as acting and other performing arts, should be cultivated.

You have a great deal of enthusiasm and make an excellent salesperson. You can make the best out of a given situation and are easily satisfied.

You are emotional, friendly, sociable, and affectionate. You can also be moody and given to self-indulgence, especially when it comes to feelings of depression or self- pity.

Be careful not to waste time and energy on trivial matters and keep your priorities in perspective. The keys to your success are commitment and discipline. You must learn to focus your considerable creativity in a given area or field. This will keep from scattering your energies in an endless number of areas.

The Expression number reveals the talents, abilities, and shortcomings that were with you when you entered your human body. Your name, and the numbers derived from it, reveal your development, as well as the talents and issues you will be working with during this life.

For those for whom reincarnation is an accepted philosophy, the vibration of your full name can be seen as the totality of your personal evolution, the experiences, talents, and wisdom accumulated over many life times. Every experience, no matter how great or small, along this evolutionary path has influenced your development, and brought you to your current state of being.

The Expression is your being; the Life Path is the major lesson you are attempting to learn this time around. Time allows the gradual emergence of your personality. By reading the Expression number below, you will come to understand your basic nature and the abilities and issues inherent in your being.

You are a free spirit. You love change, adventure, and excitement. You love your freedom. Like a bird that needs its wings to live, you cannot exist without it. Freedom is the nucleus around which your life revolves. You need it for your very survival. By using freedom properly, you are able to explore and develop all of your varied talents. You will meet many types of people and travel great distances. Freedom is the atmosphere necessary for you to bring forth your many talents.

You are capable of doing almost anything, and probably quite well. Only by avoiding the imprisonment of illusory security are you able to bring forth your abilities.

You are unusually adaptable. In fact, change is a blessing for you. In the same way, you need challenge and variety. You hate the routine of life; being stuck is a catastrophe for you. You become miserable when you are held back or held down.

The taste and texture and color of life has an overpowering allure for you. From childhood, you dream of seeing foreign lands, experiencing the sensual and the exotic. You want to try everything at least once in life. All of life is a playground for your senses.

But this can get you into trouble. You may fail to respect your natural limits, either biologically or socially. Any sort of boundary is anathema to you, which can blind you to your natural limits, and may cause you to overindulge your desire for food, sweets, alcohol, sex, and drugs.

You are gifted in your ability to communicate. Your facility with words is almost limitless. You can be a salesman, politician, lawyer, public relations person, and minister. You also possess the talent to share and advance new ideas. You are talented with your hands. You love the new and untried. Your field is the frontier. You are a bit of a gambler, and often play for very high stakes. All of this combines to give you a youthful enthusiasm, which others find infectious and attractive.

You like to work with others, but need to perform your task un-incumbered by the restraints of others.

You are a clever and a quick thinker, but your thought processes -- like your life in general -- can be unorganized and scattered. You must stay grounded and focused if you want to be successful.

You fall in and out of love frequently, especially early in life. You are naturally sensual and commonly have a strong sex drive. These characteristics usually make for a lively and exciting love life, but you must guard against shallow feelings and relationships. Your challenge is to develop mature and lasting relationships.

Self-discipline and setting healthy limits is the key to your success in virtually every area of your life. Ironically, you will find that as you learn to set appropriate limits on yourself, you will develop more self- mastery and realize even greater freedom.

This is especially true when it comes to finishing what you start. Your tendency is to give up once you've got a project or job under control; you grow bored quickly. You start to fantasize about a new challenge, or the rewards of your great accomplishment, long before the work is finished.

The 5 Expression desires the whole world. You are aware that you have many talents that can bring much success. But that success depends on your willingness to choose certain areas to concentrate on, and to bring them to perfection.

The Minor Expression number is based on the current (or short) name; the name you now use to introduce yourself including your last name.

For instance, a number missing in the full name may show up prominently in the short name; or a number (or numbers) that appears in excess in the full name can be compensated for in the short name. If a name change takes place later in life through marriage or for professional reasons, it adds or subtracts certain qualities. It can also focus and intensify existing characteristics or talents that may be latent.

Your short name makes you more practical, orderly, efficient, and dependable. You will feel more principled, honest, and determined. You will be a little more organized and capable of putting ideas into reality.

You are better able to work with details. Your conscientiousness will be enhanced, as well as your ability to work diligently and consistently over a long period of time. Discipline increases under the 4.

Your short name enhances your ability to be the pillar of society. Family and friends rely on your judgment more. However, you could become more rigid and inflexible.

Your Heart's Desire is the inner you. It shows your underlying urge, your true motivation. It reveals the general intention behind many of your actions. Consequently, it dramatically influences the choices you make in life. The Heart's desire is seen as part of the larger picture, called the core numbers, which includes the Life Path, Expression, Day you were born, and Personality. But each points to a different aspect of you.

The Expression number reveals your talents and abilities, and your general direction in life. The Life Path is the central lesson you came into the world to learn. The Day you were born is very closely connected to your Life Path. It reveals specific talents you possess, which will be helpful to you in dealing with your Life Path. The Personality reveals how people tend to see you. It also demonstrates what characteristics you are projecting to the world. The Heart's Desire demonstrates the identity of the soul that joined the earth -- you, the spiritual being.

Freedom is essential for your happiness. You love change, new experiences, meeting new people, adventure and travel. You love the exotic, far away places. Variety is more than mere spice of life -- you thrive on it. You are extremely flexible and adaptable. You have more curiosity than the proverbial cat. You have a sharp mind and a natural ability with words. You are a born communicator, clear, fluent, and imaginative in every area that interests you -- which are many!

Your Heart's Desire makes you very well equipped for life. Change -- the only constant in life -- doesn't threaten you, as it does other people. You are highly resourceful. Generally, you can think clearly in a crisis; you have good mental and physical reflexes. Whenever you fall, you tend to land on your feet.

You are highly enthusiastic. You get excited easily over a new idea or opportunity. Your nature is unconventional. You are a bit of a gambler, taking risks whenever you think the rewards are worth it.

You are very socially oriented and rarely, if ever, dull or boring. You are, of course, drawn to those people who, like yourself, are original thinkers and have exciting personalities.

You enjoy being involved in several projects at the same time. You need continual stimulation by the new and fascinating. You tend to discard boring pastimes quickly.

Your love of freedom and change can have numerous consequences. You can be irresponsible, especially when it comes to finishing tasks. You have a hard time persevering at a given project and bringing it to completion.

You must be careful that your love of sensory pleasure doesn't lead you to excessive indulgence in alcohol, food, sex, and even drugs.

You are a bit of a hero and want to save the world. This causes you to make promises you often cannot keep. Down deep, you long to please everyone, an impossible goal.

Many 5s can be emotionally superficial. They feel love passionately, but fear making deep and lasting commitments. As a result, they resist the depths of emotional attachments and remain on the surface where it is safe.

You will experience many changes and unusual events, but you learn best through experience. Therefore, your life will be full and you will make great strides in personal growth.

The Minor Heart's Desire number is derived from the vowels of your current name; the name you now use to introduce yourself. The current name is a refinement of the more complex qualities of your longer name (the full name at birth). It sharpens and bundles the energies that are reflected by your full name. It intensifies certain aspects of your being , and de-emphasizes others. For this reason, the short name often provides insight into what you truly want in life. It also often reveals the extent of your understanding of what you want from this life. It reveals both your strong desires, and the limits you place upon your potential.

Your feelings about your current name are different from your full name. It affects how you feel about yourself; it changes your identity slightly.

Your shortened name encourages you to seek more freedom and adventure in your life. You want to become less conventional and more individualistic. Your native intelligence and imagination are enhanced. You are more dynamic, enthusiastic, and flexible. You attract more excitement into your life. It is easier to adapt to changes with this Minor Heart's Desire.

Your Personality number is derived from the consonants of your full name at birth. Your Personality is like a narrow entrance hall to the great room that is your true nature. It is those aspects that you feel comfortable sharing with people at the outset of a relationship. With time and trust, you invite others into the deeper aspects of your nature; you reveal more of who you really are, in effect, your Heart's Desire, Expression, and so on.

Your Personality number often serves as a censoring device, both in terms of what you send out, as well as what you allow to approach. It discriminates in the kinds of people and information you let enter your heart and mind. For this reason, your Personality is usually much more narrow and protective in its definition than the real you. It can screen out some of what you do not want to deal with -- people or situations -- but it also welcomes those things that immediately relate to your inner nature.

Your Personality number also indicates how others perceive you. No one can be objective about himself or herself. Even our closest friends and relatives have trouble describing how they see us.

You have an impressive and aristocratic bearing. No matter how tall you are, you appear noble and upright. You are very much in control of the image you send out to others.

Many actors, dancers, and other performers have a 9 Personality Number. You are elegant, graceful, and charismatic. Many admire you.

You have the kind of stature that pulls people to you or repels them intensely. Some are jealous of you and may seek to belittle you.

You may encourage this to some extent by the amount of arrogance you radiate. This is a caution for all 9 Personalities -- they are sometimes aloof and hold themselves above the world.

Your challenge is to come down to earth with your fellow man.

Conversely, you have a great compassion for humanity and want to dedicate yourself to improving the lot of others. You are better when dealing with the trials of the many than the trouble of a single person. You are more capable of working on the grand scale, addressing the needs of society, than on a one-to-one basis.

You are kind and sympathetic, helpful and compassionate. Behind the controlled and calm facade, you are sensitive, vulnerable and emotional.

You have excellent taste. There is a good deal of artistic talent in you that shows in your home environment and your clothing.

You tend to see yourself as a guardian of society, a benevolent leader, guiding and directing your community toward a better world.

Your Maturity number indicates an underlying wish or desire that gradually surfaces around age thirty to thirty-five. This underlying goal begins to emerge as you gain a better understanding of yourself. With self-knowledge comes a greater awareness of who you are, what your true goals in life are, and what direction you want to set for your life. This, in a nutshell, is the gift of maturity: You no longer waste time and energy on things that are not within your own special identity.

No matter what your age is at present, your life is being channeled in a specific direction, toward a very specific goal. That goal can be seen as a reward or the fulfillment of a promise that is implicit in your current efforts, often without your knowing it consciously. While the characteristics of this number are usually visible during childhood, we tend to lose sight of these aspects until later in life. But our lives are always being affected by this influence, nonetheless.

Your maturity will find you increasingly practical, organized, and far more down to earth. You will be capable of putting your ideas into concrete form. Your latter days promise to be a time of accomplishment and activity.

You become more focussed and goal-oriented and less willing to discard details and cut corners. There is little interest in a quiet retirement. You are too involved in seeing your plans and efforts come to life.

Your family and friends will profit from your four maturity number because of your increasingly helpful and reliable nature.

However, you must guard against becoming rigid, narrow minded, and opinionated, especially if already several fours are found in your chart. If you are lacking 4s, or have only one or two of them, you will benefit by your increased understanding of systems, organization, and the rewards of a methodical approach to life.

It will do you good to take your time to relax and enjoy the flowers every day.

The Bridge numbers in your chart are the numbers that indicate how you can make the relationship between the individual core numbers in your chart easier and more compatible. Bridge numbers have the potential to "close the gap" between the Life Path and Expression number, or the Heart's Desire and Personality number.

In this chapter we will explain what you can do to make your talents, strengths, and specific abilities (Expression number) more easily available and fitting the needs of your main lesson(s), and expected direction of growth (Life Path).

Loosen up a bit. Have some fun; recharge your batteries. Be more generous to yourself. Communicate your deeper feelings without fear to those close to you. Be more creative, particularly in the areas of dancing, writing, acting, or poetry. Develop faith in yourself.

Several Bridge numbers can be found in your chart. The Bridge number between the Life Path number and the Expression number was described earlier in your reading. The following Bridge number relates to your Heart's Desire number and your Personality number. This Bridge number, the Heart's Desire - Personality bridge, explains how you can make your deeper self -- your needs and desires, your true nature -- more aligned with the part of your personality others tend to recognize when they meet you. With a little exaggeration, you could say that your Personality number is somewhat like your mask. It is the more superficial you; a protective shield and a camouflage of the deeper you. You can easily imagine how much more comfortable, and less self-conscious, the experience of life becomes when your deeper and more real you is closer and more fitting to the personality you reveal on a day to day basis.

Avoid procrastination. Try to be more reliable and punctual. Be practical, methodical, and systematic in your endeavors. Keep track of details; avoid chaos. Work on the basics of life. Physical and outdoor activities bring you closer to yourself, so get out in nature, work in the garden, or build a fence.

Numerology is based on the understanding that we enter life with certain strengths and weaknesses. Karmic lessons are areas that we are currently weak in and must be faced and worked on in this life. There can be more than one Karmic Lesson. These are indicated by the absence of certain numbers in your name.

The letters and numbers of your name point to talents and abilities that you possess. These characteristics can be compared to a workshop in which certain tools are available to you. Missing numbers, those that are not represented in the letters in your name, imply tools that are unavailable, and must be learned and mastered during this lifetime.

You may well recognize your Karmic Lessons as weaknesses you have learned to overcome in the course of your life, however, the challenges implied in your Karmic Lessons will continue to come up occasionally for the rest of your life.

You need to deepen your knowledge and talents in a specific discipline. You lack the will or determination to perfect yourself or a specific talent you possess. You must learn to be your own critic, without self condemnation, in order to bring your abilities to their full development.

You will learn not to take things at face value. A superficial understanding of important matters will prevent you from experiencing the satisfaction of your true potential.

The effects of this Karmic Lesson are diminished if you have at least one

7 among your core numbers (Life Path, Birthday, Hearts Desire, Expression and Personality Number).

Metaphorically, this talent can be seen as having a power all its own to shape your life. Its existence gives you a strong desire to develop and to express that particular ability. Having the talent demands that you express it, that you experience this part of you, and that you live according to its nature. In this way, the Hidden Passion shapes your personality, and guides your life.

You have a strong drive to stand out. You have a great ambition and desire to accomplish. You are highly competitive and want to be the best and the first in everything you do. You are highly energetic and creative. You are capable of influencing and even dominating others. You have highly developed political skills, and can succumb to manipulation unless your ideals are high.

Ironically, there are times when you lack confidence, especially at an earlier age, but you have the strength to overcome this obstacle.

You are a survivor, a warrior, a leader. Many great athletes and politicians have this number as a Hidden Passion.

Too many ones (6 or more in a name of average length), can make a person bullish, aggressive, violent, even tyrannical.

Each of us experiences life on four different levels: with our physical body; our mental faculty; our emotional makeup; and our intuition. Each of these areas has a specific means of perceiving information. The physical body is capable of touch, taste, pleasure, and pain. It provides us with a sense of the physical world. The mental body, like the emotional and intuitive natures, perceives the invisible worlds. Our minds deal with the world of thought. The heart, of course, is preoccupied exclusively with the world of emotion. Our feelings teach us many things about ourselves and about others. Finally, we have the capacity for direct contact with the higher realms by way of intuition. Intuitive insight comes in a flash. It is not rational -- that is the world of the mental plane -- but comes as if it were placed at the doorstep of our minds. Intuition, therefore, bypasses all effort.

These four faculties exist in all of us. But each of us depends more on one or two of them for the bulk of our knowledge. Some of us are possessed by our senses, while others live almost exclusively in our hearts, or minds.

Numerology indicates how we as individuals function on each plane.

The letters of the alphabet are divided in four categories: physical, mental, emotional and intuitive.

The proportion of each category in your name gives a good indication of which Planes of Expression are strongest in you, and which ones are weaker.

These Planes of Expression can greatly help you to understand your talents and abilities.

You have a strong presence. You are charismatic and have a dramatic flair in your personality, which may direct you to the theater.

You are also drawn to politics, publishing, promotion, and public service

-- any career that requires a certain amount of time before the public. You are attracted to doing things on a large scale.

You are a humanitarian. You are concerned about the well being of society. You have a great deal of compassion, tolerance and generosity.

You are highly idealistic and a bit of a dreamer. You are not particularly practical, however. Very often, you are not understood by others, and sometimes considered indifferent and aloof.

In some way, you want to please everyone and tend to give promises that may be impossible to keep.

If you develop your abilities, you have a significant chance to become famous.

You have a quick and highly versatile mind. You can absorb great quantities of information quickly and retain the important points.

You are impatient with routine procedures, and will rebel if forced to conform to any existing pattern for very long. You like to be involved in several projects at the same time. You are dynamic and resourceful.

You are highly emotional, yet you possess a rare degree of balance to which you can turn. You love family and close friends as few people are able. You worry too much and feel responsible for other peoples actions.

You take justice and honesty with extreme seriousness; however, you may be too disciplined.

You have artistic talent. You like to help others more than most, and are willing to sacrifice your own needs. You have an ability for teaching and healing.

You need much love and can give the same in return. You are highly idealistic, and very committed once you decide upon your soul mate.

You are very original, imaginative and sometimes have fantastic ideas about spiritual matters. You are very artistic and inspiring. You have a talent with words, and may be drawn to the pulpit.

Your intuition is above average but you tend to color and exaggerate your insights.

People experience different internal responses to life's challenges. Some withdraw from difficult situations to think them through; others withdraw from their emotions, to try and keep themselves from feeling anything. Some explode with emotions, but allow the explosion to pass quickly. Others linger with their feelings, holding on to them well past the time they should have let them go.

Very often, these are conditioned or emotional responses that emerge without thought or analysis. Maturity and self-development help us to learn new and more effective methods of handling our world and the problems we confront. Your Balance number provides you with the guidance on how best to deal with difficult or threatening situations.

You retreat into some safe haven within yourself and hope you will not have to deal with the issue at hand. Yet, the clarity and analytical abilities of your mind are sufficient to provide you with insight into the problem, and a clear path to its solution.

You have to work at confronting yourself and the issues you face unemotionally and calmly. You can be engulfed in the emotional aspects of the issue, which clouds your mind and prevents you from using your clarity to find an answer. Get past the emotion and you will find an answer.

Your Rational Thought number reveals what can probably best be described as the way you think. Are you a practical, methodical thinker, or a dreamer? Do you frequently allow your imagination to color your perception? Are you unconventional and original in the face of a practical problem, or do you stick to proven methods?

This is the kind of information revealed through your Rational Thought number.

You have a flexible and adaptable mind. You are quick with solutions, and you can think on your feet. You have the cunning of a fox. You can talk yourself out of the tightest situations, but your priority is often winning the contest, not being right.

You love to reinvent the wheel. You have no fear of trying an approach that seems far-fetched to others.

Your adaptability is unique and you often manage to turn a difficult situation around to make it work in your favor.

The first letter of your first name gives an additional indication to your character, particularly as to the manner in which you approach opportunities and obstacles. The first letter is called your Cornerstone.

Your J is for Justice. You are honest, loyal, reliable and sincere. You want to improve the lives of others. You may try too hard to please everyone. You have a clever mind and are very talented. However, you have to work at motivating yourself to make the most of your talents.

Your Subconscious Self reveals how you react to demanding situations. It indicates your ability to get the most out of your talents and opportunities, especially when you face new or challenging circumstances. The Subconscious Self also reveals the areas of our character that need to be strengthened.

You handle unexpected situations in an efficient manner and often manage to get the best out of it. You learn quickly and usually do not repeat the same mistakes. You want to be rewarded for your efforts and relate your success to the material aspects. You are dependable and solid in almost any kind of situation. You do not panic or scare easily. You have a business-like attitude to problems and realize quickly what needs to be done. You have a good understanding of money and matter. You are a survivor. You show leadership and organization and are physically courageous and competent.

Each of us is born with both strengths and weaknesses. Numerology looks at life as if it were an educational process that is meant to bring out and enhance our talents, and turn our weaknesses into strengths. This serves to complete our being.

The Challenges on your life's path provide specific lessons that you must attend to, and, in order to inspire and help you, life will place you in situations that require the specific characteristics of your Challenge numbers.

THE FIRST CHALLENGE

The duration of the First Challenge usually lasts from birth until approximately the age of 30 to 35.

This is a less demanding challenge. Growth is allowed to take place without one particularly serious obstacle. This does not mean that there will not be challenges on your path, but there is no single and consistent challenge during this period.

You are being challenged to stay faithful and focused on your highest ideals.

There is an opportunity to go deeper within yourself, and discover the inner being that is you.

THE SECOND CHALLENGE

The Second Challenge usually lasts until the age of about 35 to 40.

You must learn to be independent. You will be forced to stand up for yourself and your rights. You will be faced with situations in which you will have to choose between standing up for what you think is right versus giving in to another person's demands. You will have to struggle to strengthen and know your own will power.

You will have to learn to be firm and trust your judgment. Don't run with the crowd, be an individual. This whole lesson represents the frontiers of your consciousness. Therefore, you will have to experience much trial and error, sometimes exploding with bursts of aggression, other times being intimidated and letting frustration and anger build within you until you are ready to act on your deepest instincts.

You will learn your own set of values; you will develop into an individual with original and innovative ideas.

If you have 1s in your core numbers or in your Hidden Passion this challenge will not be as difficult to learn, nor as strongly felt.

THIRD CHALLENGE

This Challenge carries much weight and will be felt throughout your life. For that reason, it is also called the Main Challenge.

As you master this challenge, your life will come more and more under your own control. You will incorporate the positive aspects of the challenge into your character. This is it's purpose in the first place. Therefore, there is implicit in the challenge a chance for great reward.

In short, this may be the secret to your success.

(You are repeating this challenge. See earlier description.)

THE FOURTH CHALLENGE

The Fourth Challenge is most strongly felt during the latter part of our lives, beginning at the age of approximately 45.

(You are repeating this challenge. See earlier description.)

The Pinnacles are four long-term cycles, or periods, on our Life Path. Each Pinnacle represents a particular lesson we are working on. The first Pinnacle usually lasts from birth to between the ages of 30 and 35 (your specific Pinnacle periods are provided below). The middle two Pinnacles each last nine years. The last Pinnacle will stay with you for the remainder of your life.

The Pinnacles are very important. The transition from one Pinnacle to the next is always strongly felt. Your Pinnacles reveal the general conditions and events you will experience during the period. The Pinnacle describes the atmosphere, or the essential challenge you will be faced with.

You can prepare yourself for the times ahead by knowing your approaching Pinnacle number.

The transition from one Pinnacle to the next is usually prepared for approximately 2 years in advance. The latter part of that two year period is particularly strong. You will likely make some life-altering decisions -- marriage, job or career change, or any number of major changes in your character.

Perhaps the most strongly felt change -- internally as well as externally

-- is the transition from the first to the second Pinnacle. This change usually takes place in your late 20s or early 30s -- the exact date depends on your Life Path number and is provided below. You begin to feel the impact of this coming change approximately two years prior. This is usually a difficult transition, but once crossed usually provides a clear sense of direction in one's life. It also gives you a much firmer sense of your identity. It is a gateway to maturity.

Under this Pinnacle you will be very involved with family, friends, and your community. You will face an increase in responsibilities and duties, but you have a greatly enhanced sense of balance and perspective that allows you to handle emotional issues well.

Your family demands much of your attention. Matters involving spouse and children require much security, love, and sacrifice. You are the centerpiece of your family, the one people come to for solace and understanding. You may feel an increased burden, as you carry the cares of many. You will experience a deep sense of being needed.

This Pinnacle is full of love, closeness, and warmth, but you must rise to the challenges that close relationships bring. You must settle and bring harmony to personal conflicts between others. You are often the only one with perspective in a conflict. It is as if you are the keeper of justice, bringing understanding and compromise to situations that are polarized.

Under the influences of this Pinnacle -- especially at its outset -- people are often married or start families. Children are born, in-laws come into your life. You are the nucleus of a little world.

You must maintain your dignity. This is a period that makes it easier to sacrifice, but you can overdo it, becoming a doormat for others to step on simply to maintain a degree of peace. Know your limits and maintain healthy relationships.

This is a fine period for growth in business and financial matters. You attract people with resources who can help to further your personal goals. Moreover, you are balanced in your approach to business affairs. This can bring many rewards.

Your heightened sense of harmony and your genuine compassion makes you an excellent counselor and healer, especially if you already have native talent in any of these areas.

Personal health matters can also surface, causing you to reflect on diet, exercise, and other health habits.

Your desire to help others is also increased. But this can lead you to poke yourself into situations where you do not belong, or delve too deeply into other people's personal affairs. Be careful not to meddle or interfere.

The 6 Pinnacle is a time of progress and growth as a full human being. You are capable of developing yourself in many different directions -- as a loving mate and parent; a sound businessperson; and as a pillar of your community. The time requires the balance you possess, since you can easily stretch yourself in too many directions and ultimately feel burned out by the demands in your milieu.

This is a period that will teach the realities of freedom and expansion. You will travel great distances, meet many new and interesting people, experience many adventures, and essentially come to know the world. You are in a period of accelerated experimentation and learning. Experience is your teacher.

Your ability with words is greatly increased. You can write and speak with ease. You are also able to successfully promote yourself. In fact, this is the source of much adventure; new opportunities for work, travel, and exotic experiences present themselves with regularity.

Your challenge is to prevent yourself from becoming a rolling stone. You need to ground yourself in a particular discipline, career, or relationship. This will not limit your freedoms so much as give you a base for operation. Otherwise, you may find yourself skipping from one meaningless job to the next, one superficial relationship after another. You can also fall victim to the abuse of food, alcohol, sex, or drugs.

You may fear being anchored or tied down, which can cause you to skim the surface of a pursuit you enjoy, or important relationships.

You must come to know the true meaning of freedom, which is unconditional love. You give your love and energy without the condition of holding on to a place, a person, or an occupation; and you expect the same in return -- to be loved for what you are, rather than someone who belongs to another. There is a highly spiritual path offering itself that requires detachment without loss of love.

Many turn away from this and instead choose to maintain a superficial relationship with the world, or with other people.

You must cultivate your talents, especially your verbal and writing abilities. You are likely a gifted salesperson, or promoter.

You must accept limitations as a necessary base for your freedom. Freedom cannot exist without limitations, otherwise you would be without identity, and without existence.

This is a challenging period in which you are at a high point of sensitivity and intuition. There is so much going on in your psyche that you can suffer much confusion over direction and identity. On the other hand, there is a wide open channel between the personal consciousness and the higher realms of the unconscious. You are constantly being inspired and even assaulted by information and insight.

Because of the intensity of these revelations, you must learn to ground your life in faith and a practical vocation that keeps your feet on the ground everyday.

This is a period of enormous spiritual and personal growth. You will come out of it with a highly uncommon clarity and understanding of life. At the same time, it is a period of enormous demands, emotionally and spiritually. Any attachment you might have to specific identity traits -- who you think you are and why you are here, for example -- is constantly challenged.

There is a desire to settle into some field or way of life to attain stability, but the energy of this Pinnacle is not allowing it. It is as if there is a destination, or destiny, to which you are being driven. You do not feel in control of this process. Instead, you are acutely aware of the forces that are shaping your life. You must surrender to them.

Meanwhile, you experience the emotional turmoil that can come with this highly charged period.

There is a definite, even compelling, sense of being different. You are aware of a feeling of receiving special attention from spiritual forces. Your perception of life is somehow more acute than others; you see more clearly and more spiritually due to your high degree of sensitivity. It is as if you have a perfectly accurate peripheral vision, in which everything stands out in sharp relief. At times you may feel that you can see into the souls of things.

At the same time, you may feel like a foreigner to the earth. You are completely impractical. Sometimes you may feel that you do not understand the workings of the physical world. Practical things escape you. You feel awkward and clumsy at times, and are aware perhaps how fluidly other lives are going. This increases your sense of being an outsider.

More important than all the awkwardness and feelings of being different is the overwhelming sense of having a purpose or a message to reveal that will make other people's lives happier, healthier, and more at peace. You want desperately to bring this out.

The challenge of the 11 Pinnacle is to remain grounded and attached to this dream. You must find practical and useful ways to be of service to others, at the same time developing yourself so that one day you may be able to bring forth that which is within you.

The influences of this period make you highly creative, innovative, and inventive. You have a completely unconventional approach to problems. Trust your intuition, seek harmonious settings to restore your sense of inner peace, and work hard to keep your feet on the ground. This period will bring great rewards on all levels, and with perseverance you will find your rightful place.

This is a period that will teach the realities of freedom and expansion. You will travel great distances, meet many new and interesting people, experience many adventures, and essentially come to know the world. You are in a period of accelerated experimentation and learning. Experience is your teacher.

Your ability with words is greatly increased. You can write and speak with ease. You are also able to successfully promote yourself. In fact, this is the source of much adventure; new opportunities for work, travel, and exotic experiences present themselves with regularity.

This will not limit your freedoms so much as give you a base for operation. Otherwise, you may find yourself skipping from one meaningless job to the next, one superficial relationship after another. You can also fall victim to the abuse of food, alcohol, sex, or drugs.

Many turn away from this and instead choose to maintain a superficial relationship with the world, or with other people.

You must cultivate your talents, especially your verbal and writing abilities. You are likely a gifted salesperson, or promoter.

You must accept limitations as a necessary base for your freedom. Freedom cannot exist without limitations, otherwise you would be without identity, and without existence.

Like most stories, there are three great divisions of our lives: the First, or opening period, finds us groping to find our true nature; at the same time, we are trying to cope with the powerful forces that are present in our environment, our parents and the socio-economic conditions of our family, for example. The Second Cycle, or middle period of our lives, brings about the slow emergence of our individual and creative talents. The initial part of this cycle -- the early and mid 30s -- represents a struggle to find our place in the world, while the late 30s, 40s, and early 50s, sees us with a greater degree of self-mastery and influence over the environment. The Third, or final Cycle, can represent a flowering of our inner being, such that our true nature has finally come to fruition. It is during this period that one has the greatest degree of self-expression and power.

A time of heightened self expression and much social support. Any ability you possess in the arts, especially in writing, acting, or dance, will be brought to new heights and meet with much reward. You are socially active as never before. You will appear to others as charming, attractive, even charismatic. Be careful not to waste your energies on too many superficial projects or relationships, however. The time requires discipline and focus in order to make the most of the great upward energy that is filling your life.

(You are repeating this cycle. See earlier description.)

This is a period of slow and patient development. You are acutely sensitive to your surroundings and highly intuitive. You possess a gift as a peacemaker and have tremendous power through gentle persuasion. Cultivate the talents of tact and diplomacy. Cooperate with others. Musical and other artistic talents come to fruition. Partnerships are important, requiring understanding and compromise. You need patience and flexibility, but you are under a gentle and benevolent influence in which others are happy to support you. Seek out beauty and harmonious environments, spend time in nature, and enjoy the peace of close companionship. This is a period of slow but steady progress.

The Transits are the individual letters of your name that combine to form the Essence, which is the number that reveals a great deal about your year ahead. Your name can be seen as a piece of music that vibrates in time. Each note, or letter, has a specific duration and influence over the course of your life. Your life, therefore, can be seen as a musical score, with the individual letters making specific contributions at given points, just as notes in a musical piece are played at specific points to give a piece of music its rhythm, character, and nuance.

The Transits appear as part of your Progressive Chart and will tell you much about specific influences taking place in your life during given years.

This is a time of strong emotional experiences, which can affect your health if you let it. You may find yourself worrying unduly. There is much responsibility placed on your shoulders, with sensitive emotional issues involved. You will find yourself more interested in religious and physical studies. Your leadership abilities are enhanced during this time.

(You are repeating this cycle. See earlier description.)

Your mind will be very active during this year. Your thoughts are surprisingly unconventional. You come up with original, even inventive ideas. This is an ambitious time and self-promotion will pay off. Advancement and success are possible. You have self-discipline and a clear understanding of what you want. Emotionally you are a little vulnerable and in need of love and attention.

Your leadership abilities are enhanced during this time.

(You are repeating this cycle. See earlier description.)

(You are repeating this cycle. See earlier description.)

This is a very emotional time with many ups and down's. You are high-strung and vulnerable to stress. You are somewhat accident prone. You need to develop calmness, centeredness, and an acceptance of life. You must control your moods and not slip into feelings of self-pity and insecurity. At the same time you are very competitive and have the opportunity to achieve success and financial reward.

(You are repeating this cycle. See earlier description.)

(You are repeating this cycle. See earlier description.)

The Essence Number and the Personal Year Number are the two essential indicators of the forces that will influence your life during the course of any year. While the Personal Year runs from January to January, the Essence is most strongly felt from birthday to birthday. For example, if your essence number is 8 for the year 1988, you would begin to feel the influence of that

8 most powerfully after your 1988 birthday. The influence would begin to wane during 1989 and would finally end at your birthday of 1989.

The Essence number indicates the lessons you will be dealing with during that year. It says a great deal about how you will perceive your environment. It also gives clear advice on how you can be most successful during the year, that is, which types of behavior will be supported by your milieu, and which ones will be less effective.

Your ability to express your self will reach an all-time high. Any talent you possess in the arts -- especially in writing, acting, or other performing arts -- will be greatly enhanced. This is a period of success through personal creativity. You have much opportunity to advance yourself and career through your own personal expression, charm, and creative talent.

This is a social time, filled with much fun and friendship. You will feel lighter, fresher, more alive than in previous years. It is as if life has relieved you of a burden, allowing the more creative, upward, and joyful energies to flow more freely.

People are naturally attracted to you. They sense your joie de vivre, your spirit, and creativity.

Your challenge is to focus your heightened creativity on a worthwhile task. Discipline is essential. Choose a goal worth reaching. Pour your energies into something that will last. In this way, you will emerge from this period having accomplished something worthwhile, and learned to harness your creative abilities.

If you fail to focus, you will likely spend your opportunity and creative urges on loose talk, superficiality, and socializing.

This is an emotional period. The upward, heart-centered energies are peaking, bringing with them many old emotional issues. You can easily exaggerate the importance of an unkind word, or react too emotionally to a troubling situation. In short, you need perspective now.

You are in a highly volatile period, making you highly creative, sensitive, and given to emotional mood swings.

You are highly romantic and given to fantasy. There can be many wonderfully romantic times; however, it is important to avoid being swept away by your fantasies. Do not fail to see people for what they are.

This is a time when you will learn the value of your personal expression, and your own uniqueness. It is a time of personal accomplishment and advancement.

(You are repeating this cycle. See earlier description.)

This is an important time of progress and advancement along the lines of your talents. You will experience a relief from burden and increased personal freedom. Any talent you possess in writing, public relations, and the arts will be greatly enhanced. At the same time, business matters flow quickly and new opportunities for expansion seem to arise out of nowhere.

People are attracted to you and seek to help you achieve your goals. You possess an almost magical ability to promote yourself. Your fluency with words is greatly increased. You are more charming and attractive, which opens many new doors.

This is a period of travel and much learning. Opportunities to visit distant lands, encounter foreign cultures and peoples, and learn about life will come to you. Your personal growth will speed up considerably.

As such, many old habits and outdated methods will fade from your life. It is as if you are being catapulted from the old and outworn, into a new and fast-paced period of personal growth and development.

Your desire to satisfy your senses will also increase dramatically. You must be careful not to overindulge in food, alcohol, sex, and even drugs.

Sudden events and chance occurrences will come your way. You must be alert to your opportunities. This is not a period of sitting back and waiting, but a time to move ahead rapidly.

Your challenge is to remain focused on your more long term goals. Be disciplined in your work. Don't have too many irons in the fire. Sort out the important projects and endeavors and see them through from start to finish. Focus, discipline, and completion are the keys to your success.

Your Personal Year number is a strong indication of the trends and circumstances you will experience during the year ahead. Your Personal Year cycles are based on the Universal Year cycles and therefore run concurrent with the calendar year. Transit and Essence cycles are based on the letters of your name and run from birth date to birth date.

There are nine personal year numbers, which makes up a complete Epicycle. Each Epicycle reveals the progression or evolution of a specific part of your growth. Your progress along this Epicycle can be seen very logically, from the infancy or beginning of a growth period in your life, to the conclusion or culmination of that process. The 1 personal year indicates your first steps in a new direction. The years that follow indicate your progress along this path, concluding with your 9 Personal Year, which completes the cycle. Below is a description of your current Personal Year. It indicates where you are on the 9 year Epicycle.

After last year's constant involvement with yourself and very possible occasional doubts about the state of your business or career you will find this year to be a relief. Things finally work out. Long postponed checks and promotions come through. You see the light at the end of your financial tunnel and an inner strength and confidence is breaking through. This is your year of harvest and , depending upon the effort you put out in the past seven years , your reward will be equally large. There is a beauty in these cycles we can recognize and understand and in doing so we find ourselves "in the flow" and there is no more need to try and struggle upstream. So this year you will have an opportunity to involve yourself fully in work and material growth and bring home the rewards, at the same time a certain detachment is also necessary, for you and for the experience you have because it is not the reward that brings you happiness but your experience of life, which is why before the rewarding eight year you have had such opportunity for growth during the soul-searching of a seven year. Give in to your ambitions, you will find yourself more clear and focussed and able to pursue and reach your goals. Your power is visible and strong, mental creativity is high, vision and intuition will guide you, and at the same time you are more efficient and focused. There can be loss, serious loss, bankruptcy and failure, because always the rewards are directly proportionate to your effort and motivation, however you know the effort you put out and you know your motivations, so there must be no room for fear and doubt, only for success and winning and this year will undoubtedly turn out to be a very satisfying year.

This is your year to finish up all unfinished business, to clean house and make room for new things. On a material level this is a good time to get rid of unnecessary weight, to give away or sell what you do not need anymore and to pay off old debts. On a spiritual level you will experience a different mode altogether. Your attention should turn to others and their needs, find ways to be of help and give time and energy to worthwhile causes. You must lighten your burden of questions and doubts and the best way to do so is by directing your attention to another direction, away from yourself and you will find yourself becoming lighter and more in touch with your self. This is a time of completion, problems can be solved and over with, strained relationships relax or disappear, the sources of stress in work or business can be better understood and dealt with. Be social and communicative, enjoy music and other arts. Your creativity is higher than usual. There can be some difficulties this year due to your desire to face obstacles and overcome them, decisions have to be taken and your courage and strength may be severely tested several times, this is not going to be an easy year all the time but you will feel relieved and on the brink of a positive breakthrough by the end of this year. This is the end of a nine year epicycle and will you will feel many times the excitement of a new and promising era when optimism is your friend but you will also experience the fear of letting go, however the more you let go the more room there is to be filled during the next epicycle.

Be ready for major changes. You will be inspired to start new projects or enterprises. You will feel a strong forward push toward new goals.

This is a time for vision and planning. Share your dream with others; make plans, get the necessary support, but, above all, rely on yourself as the driving force. Be decisive!

You are starting a new nine year Epicycle. Everything you do now will affect your future. Do not hold back the inner force of creation. Be direct, daring, bold.

You will have more confidence and determination this year, particularly in comparison with last year, which was a time of letting go. This year represents a time of birth. It's a time to take charge and to apply yourself to your dream.

This is also a good time to make the personal changes you have long wanted to make: start a diet, an exercise program, begin a new course of study.

There may be some emotional turmoil, especially in the first two or three months. It takes a while to get the ball rolling. There are many changes you must make and much work to be done.

Be open-minded, organized, and focused. Avoid distractions and procrastination.

You are at a crossroads. You will need courage and a clear head to stay on the right track.

This is a year of opportunities.

The key months in your year ahead are March, in which you are able to lay the foundation to your plans; April, in which changes take place such as a change of residence or career; July and August mark a time in which you will see the fruits of your labors begin to take place; October represents a major turn in events, often fraught with emotional turmoil; the fall marks a coalescing of your plans into more concrete form.

December is a 2 Personal Month in an 8 Personal Year and shifts the focus to relationships and all affairs of the heart.

Co-workers are demanding, not only in work-related matters, but also in personal areas. You may catch some flack, or become involved in conflicts that don't appear to have anything to do with you. All your tact and diplomacy are needed to maintain harmony in the work place. However, you are better equipped to deal with sensitive affairs than usual and you manage to diffuse most of these potentially explosive affairs.

Pretty much the same experiences await you regarding relationships with relatives and friends, but here too, you are able to keep the peace.

Your intuition and sensitivity are your strongest assets during this month.

There is, however, also a need to stand up for yourself. Someone is about to claim credit which rightly belongs to you. Again, diplomacy and tact are required to solve this problem.

This is also a good month for negotiation and financial affairs, particularly concerning loans and mortgages.

Romance can be powerful, but may cause problems when money is involved.

January is a 1 Personal Month in a 9 Personal Year. It brings progress as well as some turmoil. Your career offers opportunities that should be taken advantage of, but you may also be wondering if you want to continue on the path you have chosen. A change of course may be taking shape. You may want to focus more on the ideas you had at the beginning of your professional life. Even if you do not have a career, a return to the idealistic views you had at an earlier time cannot be avoided now.

A similar desire for purity and idealism influences your relationships with friends and relatives. You find yourself confronting some of the people close to you. You may decide that some of your relationships are no longer desirable.

You experience emotional ups and downs, caused by a need for confirmation of your love on one hand, and a tendency to be critical and judgmental on the other. You are aggressive and emotional at times. This combination may shake the foundations of many of your relationships. Undoubtedly, some of these foundations may crack, but others will prove to be strong and remain undamaged.

Financially, this is a time to be extremely careful.

February is a 2 Personal Month in a 9 Personal Year. It awakens you to many of the underlying factors that influence your career and personal life. You are highly intuitive; you experience strange and vivid dreams; and you gain insights that border on psychic premonitions. At the same time, you continue to be vulnerable in the emotional area. Any kind of criticism can devastate you. You should avoid confrontations. You are in a position where you can gain considerable understanding of the motivations and desires that influence you, as well as others.

This is an important and valuable time, because you are learning much about the true nature of human beings, including yourself. The challenge here is to see yourself and others in a spiritual light, with love and forgiveness.

Some people who go through this particular cycle experience bitterness and anger. For others, this cycle brings faith and gratitude. For everyone, the impressions are lasting.

Romance is powerful; you see and hear and feel more fully than usual, which brings an added intensity to the experience of love.

March is a 3 Personal Month in a 9 Personal Year. It lightens things considerably. You are not nearly as vulnerable as last month. You are more playful. You express yourself easily and you manage to inspire and motivate others.

You receive some positive information about your career and your financial status. Meanwhile, you are considering some big changes in these areas of your life. You may want to keep your thoughts to yourself, or share them only with one or two of your most trusted confidants. You are not ready to make decisions or take steps that are irreversible, but that time will come soon.

This is an exciting time, when everything seems more intense, more alive. You are more creative and communicative.

You should take the time to enjoy yourself. Go on a vacation. Visit friends. Be social. Give yourself a break.

Romance is favorable, but you have to guard against irresponsible and superficial behavior.

April is a 4 Personal Month in a 9 Personal Year. It requires hard work, an eye for details, and dependability. Your career is a top priority and requires much of your attention. This is a difficult month with frustrations and a sense of urgency. Perseverance is the key.

There is another feeling that starts moving to the foreground. You feel a little tired, ready to surrender. Your energy level is lower than usual and this makes it harder to keep up with your duties and responsibilities.

However, this is not a good time to slow down. It is a time that can bring opportunity and an unexpected insight into a new direction in life. You are at a point in your life when you feel that you have been stagnant. Change is needed.

This month will bring some practical insight and ideas as to how this change can be accomplished. This is a good time for business ventures and investment. It's also a good time to work on the house and garden.

Romance is understated, but emotional stability is hard to maintain. Don't make many any big changes or decisions in the emotional realm for now.

May is a 5 Personal Month in a 9 Personal Year and brings many changes and ideas that start you in a different direction.

You are restless and impatient. Your energy is scattered but you are ready to make a big step forward. A move of residence or a travel will bring inspiration.

You are at an important stage in your life where you feel a bit in limbo, but you also know that a change for the better is imminent. You feel excited and confused at the same time.

You do not really understand what is going on, and the motivations that have guided you for many years now seem outdated. You question your underlying values and desires. You feel a loss of direction. Your best approach is to wait things out. Do not start any new endeavors unless you are very sure you will follow through on them.

Social events are highly favorable. You need to be around people. You need to be loose and enjoy yourself. As I mentioned earlier, you are going through enormous changes this year and next year, and for that reason, interaction with others is therapeutic. It helps you deal with the turbulence that takes place inside.

June is a 6 Personal Month in a 9 Personal Year and brings stability, strength, and understanding of yourself and the many roles you play in this life. Some relationships may undergo a test this month. This whole year is a time of letting go of certain people, behaviors, and roles that you have outgrown. June is particularly important in sorting out your feelings for others. Relatives and friends seek your company, but you may respond with aloofness and indifference.

An important challenge this month is to be honest and open in your relationships. You may tend to bottle-up your feelings.

This is a good time for career and finances, even if you feel a lack of interest for these matters. Romantic relationships are particularly fragile right now. However, if your love-relationship survives this period, you know that it is based on true substance. It will be stronger and lasting.

July is a 7 Personal Month in a 9 Personal Year. It represents a time of insight and awareness. You start to realize the magnitude of the deep inner changes that are taking place and this fills you with a combination of fear and excitement. You know that the time has come to face up to important decisions that will effect your life, as well as the lives of those close to you for a long time to come.

Your fear is based on your indecision and inability to know if what you want to do is right. Your excitement comes from the knowledge that at least something is happening. In this situation, the key is to choose what feels right. Rely on your heart and your intuition, and have faith in yourself and your Creator.

Your career and finances are not priorities, except when they relate to plans you may have for the future.

This is a time to prepare for the long-term, not to reach for immediate rewards.

August is an 8 Personal Month in a 9 Personal Year. It brings financial matters to the foreground. Take a close look at your financial situation and adjust your lifestyle accordingly. Pay off debts. Tie up loose ends. Clean up this area of your life.

Often, an 8 Personal Month, 9 Personal Year brings a stroke of luck; a payment from a forgotten source, or an inheritance.

Use any extra income you might have to pay off your debts.

You are facing a future that requires some risk taking, or investment. Perhaps you have been thinking about a complete career change, or starting your own business. Either way, you need to get a clean slate before the end of the year.

You also receive recognition and compliments for effort put out in the past, which may result in a promotion.

Romance is in better shape than the last two months. If you are committed to someone and have experienced some troubles in the relationship, you will find stability and comfort this month. If you are single, you may meet someone through work or business.

September is a 9 Personal Month in a 9 Personal Year. Now your desire for change reaches a climax. You are taking steps to implement changes you have been considering for some time. Nothing is stable right now, but that should not worry you.

You are making progress in hidden ways. You feel insecure about the future but you rightly know that these changes have to be made. There is a lot of adjusting that has to be done, not only for you, but also for the people close to you.

More than at any other time this year, you let go of the old and prepare for the new. This takes place in every area of your life; spiritual, emotional, and material. However, this is not a month to make impulsive decisions and starting anything new should be postponed until very late this month or next month.

A disappointment in romance is possible but will clear the air for future engagements.

October is a 1 Personal Month in a 9 Personal Year. It is a month of new beginnings, new people, and renewed energy.

While most of this year feels like the end of a long day of hard work, with low energy and a desire to put your feet up, October feels like you just had cup of coffee. You are ready to get started, to roll up your sleeves and tackle whatever project is in front of you. This is a time to aggressively pursue the plans you have made in the past. It is a time to act, not to dream or question. Take a chance. Show courage.

This is also a time that requires independence and self-confidence. Don't let the cautious words of others slow you down.

There is some danger connected to financial wheeling and dealings. Be very careful who you trust with your money. Friendships are renewed. You may also meet someone you haven't heard from in some time and this person will play a role in your plans for the future.

Romance is favored, particularly if you are single. You may meet someone who becomes a permanent fixture in your life.

November is a 2 Personal Month in a 9 Personal Year. You may find yourself wondering what happened to last month's energy. You feel a little burned out and you are not sure about the direction your life has been taking in the past several months. You may question whether you are trying to change too much of your life. You are moodier than usual and don't seem to be able to get things started. You are extremely sensitive and take the opinions of others more serious than usual. This is a time to take things slowly, to spend time in self-reflection and contemplation, to find strength and stability in yourself instead of in the circumstances around you.

Your relationship to the people close to you improves and a lot of healing takes place there.

Romance also is highly favorable, particularly if you do not try to make the impression that you are stronger than you really are.

You are more susceptible to illness and would do well to refrain from alcohol or anything else that weakens your system.

December is a 2 Personal Month in an 8 Personal Year and shifts the focus to relationships and all affairs of the heart.

Co-workers are demanding, not only in work-related matters, but also in personal areas. You may catch some flack, or become involved in conflicts that don't appear to have anything to do with you. All your tact and diplomacy are needed to maintain harmony in the work place. However, you are better equipped to deal with sensitive affairs than usual and you manage to diffuse most of these potentially explosive affairs.

Pretty much the same experiences await you regarding relationships with relatives and friends, but here too, you are able to keep the peace.

Your intuition and sensitivity are your strongest assets during this month.

There is, however, also a need to stand up for yourself. Someone is about to claim credit which rightly belongs to you. Again, diplomacy and tact are required to solve this problem.

January is a 1 Personal Month in a 9 Personal Year. It brings progress as well as some turmoil. Your career offers opportunities that should be taken advantage of, but you may also be wondering if you want to continue on the path you have chosen. A change of course may be taking shape.

A similar desire for purity and idealism influences your relationships with friends and relatives. You find yourself confronting some of the people close to you. You may decide that some of your relationships are no longer desirable.

February is a 2 Personal Month in a 9 Personal Year. It awakens you to many of the underlying factors that influence your career and personal life. You are highly intuitive; you experience strange and vivid dreams; and you gain insights that border on psychic premonitions. At the same time, you continue to be vulnerable in the emotional area. Any kind of criticism can devastate you. You should avoid confrontations. You are in a position where you can gain considerable understanding of the motivations and desires that influence you, as well as others.

You are at an important stage in your life where you feel a bit in limbo, but you also know that a change for the better is imminent. You feel excited and confused at the same time.

You do not really understand what is going on, and the motivations that have guided you for many years now seem outdated. You question your underlying values and desires. You feel a loss of direction. Your best approach is to wait things out. Do not start any new endeavors unless you are very sure you will follow through on them.

Social events are highly favorable. You need to be around people. You need to be loose and enjoy yourself.
