Career

The Personal Year Number represents the tendencies and trends which impact your work path and career choices. It indicates your strong potential for a specific career path. Although it is not a guarantee of success as there are other (larger) cycles and factors to take into account, if you put in the effort, the chances of you progressing and flourishing in these careers are higher.

Career Advice for Personal Year Number 1

Being at the beginning of a new nine-year cycle, the energy of Personal Year Number 1 brings change. There will be unavoidable changes at work, whether subtle or overt. You will also feel a strong urge to take your career to the next level, whether it is through new projects, embarking on a new career path, or simply finding new challenges in your current job. It would be beneficial to plan and set your goals properly so you can work towards them positively and not lose focus, be frustrated, or side-tracked by challenges which come your way.

Under the influence of Personal Year Number 1, your inner leadership qualities will be revealed, especially if you are already in a leadership role. You may feel impatient and be compelled to effect change at a faster pace, even overnight if possible. However, you must get these feelings under control as you do not want your frustrations to project negative energy nor offend other people in your haste.

Taking the time to learn the ropes, do things properly and treat others with care will smoothen your path to success. It will also allow you to properly channel the inventive qualities triggered by Personal Year Number 1 to think of new ways to work more effectively and positively.

Under the influence of this Personal Year Number, you may lose focus as you constantly feel the need to re-evaluate work direction and are tempted by many new opportunities. Hence, the significance of the earlier emphasis on having clear career and work goals. It will also do you good to keep any sense of self-importance and superiority in check, to avoid future problems especially with colleagues.

With the energy of Personal Year Number 1, you may wish to explore a career as an adviser, researcher, writer, politician or a position of leadership in an organisation. You may also wish to start your own business.

Health

The importance of health is not just physical, but also mental and spiritual. Good health requires a balance of mind, body and spirit, but achieving this delicate balance is usually easier said than done. One could be free from physical sickness yet suffer from severe depression. In short, illness is an indication that the three components (body, mind and spirit) are out of sync and there are life issues which must be addressed. Thus, knowing the health trends associated with your Personal Year Number will give you a better insight into the factors that influence your overall wellbeing.

Health Advice for Personal Year Number 1

Being at the forefront of the Personal Year Number cycle, the Personal Year Number 1 signifies a new beginning and you are likely to be inspired to get a head start on your health goals and targets. However, if you do not know where to start, this feeling can overwhelm you and your body can go out of balance without focus or direction.

The energy of Personal Year Number 1 is very dynamic and you may feel a need to work 100% for your health goals. However, it would be best if you set practical targets rather than being overly enthusiastic to avoid burnout and to ensure you continue working towards your goals long term.

The dynamic energy of Personal Year Number 1 is also likely to influence your resolve to engage in more physical exercise to keep your body fit and healthy. Physical exercise also helps release your pent-up emotions, mental worries, stress and toxins. The energy of Personal Year Number 1 also means you are likely to stick with your resolutions in the long term.

Furthermore, the energy of Personal Year Number 1 emphasises thinking. The bad news is that it may stimulate your tendency to overthink. Thus, you must be careful as too much mental stimulation may overload you and if left unchecked, can even result in a mental breakdown. The good news is that this energy can help you think through matters logically, especially if you tend to be impulsive. For example, when you hear of a new miracle crash diet, Personal Year Number 1 will help you to consider the consequences, pros and cons of this diet before deciding to engage in it.

It will be beneficial for you to learn new mental activities to keep your mind healthy, which in turn influences your physical health. With the influence of Personal Year Number 1, it will be easier for you to train your mind to focus on your goals. With focus, you are mentally in charge and your physical body will be able to keep up, even with very little sleep. It will also be easier for you to give up habits which no longer serve you.

Due to the negative impact of Personal Year Number 1, you may find yourself prone to illness, which in turn stops you from progressing. However, it is still possible to turn things around. Each time you fall ill is an opportunity to withdraw and work out your plans for a new direction. You can take the downtime to gather your strength and focus on the next step forward instead of being defeated. Other areas for you to look into are your adrenal stress levels and your digestive system.

Relationships

The Personal Year Number reveals the potentials, challenges and qualities of your relationship that may develop during that given cycle. By understanding the various effects of the nine Personal Year cycles, you will be able to face your relationship challenges with more clarity.

Relationship Advice for Personal Year Number 1

The beginning of a nine-year cycle is likely to bring new developments to your love life. If you are not in a romantic relationship, you are likely to encounter new opportunities. If you are already in a romantic relationship, you may find yourself exploring new developments which are likely to turn things around for the better.

You may discover that people you know have qualities you were not aware of. However, this is likely because having encountered these qualities within yourself, you become more aware of such qualities in others.

On a general level, the energy of Personal Year Number 1 is likely to bring life changing experiences and open up new and exciting chapters. Each new relationship you foster not only helps you understand yourself more by revealing new aspects of yourself, but is also a useful gauge of your progress in life.

Even if you decide to move away from certain relationships, there are lessons to be learnt. Conflicts and issues may occur in old relationships as part of a natural process for you to move on. Compassion for yourself and others will help with this process.

As Personal Year Number 1 influences the mental aspect, you may find yourself wanting to connect with others on a deeper level. You may also be inspired to deepen your relationships with them since Number 1 energy moves you forward in the best possible way in all relationships. It is also likely to push you to go for what you want in life, like a new job or higher education.

On the other hand, your fears may create obstacles that prevent you from moving ahead with your life. People around you may also become obstacles if you allow it. For example, you may feel let down in your relationship with your partner because of your unfulfilled expectations and your inconsideration. It may be good to openly discuss matters so that both of you can learn from it.

Sensitivity is part and parcel of Personal Year Number 1 and you may feel victimised when you feel you have no choice but to comply with others’ expectations. However, situations like these can make you a better person who puts others’ needs before your own. You can also turn this trend around in a constructive way by speaking up.
