     1 Personal Year

     An Active/Aggressive year

     Keywords:  New  beginning,  aggressive,  new  career,  new  residence, 
     overcoming obstacles, Life Begins A New 9 Year cycle.

     Tarot Association: The Magician: A year  for action,  recognizing your 
     potential, carry out plans, use your inner talents.

     You can wipe the slate clean and get ready for  a brand  new start  in 
     life under the influence of this personal year.   New friends  and new 
     experiences are  on the  way now,  so let  go of  all of  the negative 
     influences  of  the  past  and  get  ready to  start life  with a  new 
     enthusiasm. Be careful of indecision at this time because it  would be 
     a terrible year to sit back and do nothing. Remember to get your goals 
     set  early  in the  year so  they can  come to  fruition by  your next 
     birthday.

     Your need for independence is high now and you will want to  make your 
     own way in the world, pulling  yourself up  by your  own "bootstraps".  
     You will  not be  willing to  go along  with the  whims and  wishes of 
     others now. Be careful  in your  approach to  others because  business 
     partnerships and relationships can end if you come on too strong.

     Some numerologists say that Mars is the ruler of the  number 1,  while 
     others believe the Sun should be assigned to it.  The Hindu scriptures 
     agree with the placement of the Sun for the 1 personal year,  and find 
     that Sunday is the most favorable day.  The 1 year is masculine number 
     full of purpose, and it's favorite direction is  east. You  are likely 
     to find  that during  this year  you will  be a  lot more  aggressive, 
     showing some degree of anger when things don't go your  way, and  tons 
     of confidence to back it up. 

     The number 1 year might have you feeling somewhat lonely however, even 
     though you have family  and friends  at your  side. There  will be  an 
     overwhelming  sense  of  isolation  in  your  life  and  someone  very 
     important can enter your life who serves as a teacher for you  in some 
     way. Be careful who you choose as friends now, because they will be in 
     your  life  for a  very long  time. Partnerships  in business  are not 
     favored because this is a time to make your trek through life alone.

     Under  the  influence  of  the  number  1 personal  year, all  of that 
     aggressiveness and an overabundance of energy can have adverse effects 
     as well, usually through accidents or misfortune.

     You will find during the number 1 year that any problems, obstacles or 
     difficulties you have experienced in the past are  diminished and  you 
     will  feel  more  fortunate,  drawing  help  and support  from others, 
     especially people  located in  the government,  or people  who are  in 
     authority over you. There can be some important  changes in  your life 
     now, and consider that all changes will ultimately benefit you  in the 
     end.   You  can attain  a name  for yourself  now and  become somewhat 
     famous.

     Unforeseen  circumstances  will call  for creative  and organizational 
     abilities  and  this  year  brings  that  gift  to  you. Think  of the 
     opportunities you may be missing by attempting nothing at all. 

     You may be required  to make  some very  serious decisions  about your 
     future now, so take the time to find out just what it  is you  want to 
     do with your life and use that as a foundation for your future. Career 
     changes or moves are highlighted, needed and should  be welcomed  with 
     open arms.

     One of the dangers of this time period is giving to others  way beyond 
     the call of duty and denying your own needs in the process.  No matter 
     how much you give,  either consciously  or subconsciously  there is  a 
     dissatisfaction with the dependent side of  your nature.   It will  be 
     difficult to give advice to you at this time because your enthusiastic 
     and impatient nature won't  allow you  to hear  the opinions  of other 
     people around you.

     You may get involved with someone new in your life or want  to make  a 
     new start with the  relationship you  are in.   Associations with  the 
     signs Leo, Aries and Aquarius are highlighted.

     The  negative  side  of  this  personal  year is  being too  forceful, 
     aggressive, selfish, egotistical and ruthless.

     The number 1 personal year is  associated with  inventiveness, genius, 
     originality & intellectual capabilities.

     Vulnerable  areas  for  your  health  are  palpitations of  the heart, 
     headaches, irritations of the nose, mouth,  and teeth.   Make sure  to 
     have your blood pressure checked as  well, as  it can  be higher  than 
     normal at this time, and the eyes should  be examined  for astigmatism 
     as well. Sensitive times for your health and overworking the  body are 
     October, December and January.

     While studying the Hindu scriptures, I found that while in  the number 
     1 personal year, you  can find  friendship with  people born  with the 
     numbers 2, 3 or 9 as a birth  number or  with people  in a  2, 3  or 9 
     personal year. You will not get along with people who have 4,  6 or  8 
     as a destiny number or in a 4, 6 or 8 year. People who are in a 5 year 
     or have a 5 destiny number  will be  neither bad  or good,  but rather 
     neutral.

     Career possibilities: Any career  that makes  you the  head honcho  or 
     boss,  Military  officer, buyer,  editor, exporter,  foreman, manager, 
     jeweler,  financial  lender,  movie   director  or   producer,  school 
     principal, sales manager, designer, curator, librarian,  writer, start 
     your own business, inventions and contracting work.

     2 Personal Year

     A Passive/Non-aggressive year

     Keywords:   Cooperation,   Partnerships,   Slowed   down   activities, 
     Deceptions, Inactive, Material.

     Tarot Association: The High Priestess :  Non action,  withdrawing from 
     any involvement, becoming calm and passive.

     The number 2 is feminine and represents women, and it  is both  highly 
     emotional  and  intuitive.   Cooperation  is the  best way  to achieve 
     success in the 2 year, so work with others and share in the spirit  of 
     harmony. The 2 is slow by  nature and  hates to  be rushed  into doing 
     anything. She is warm by nature, but the negative side of the number 2 
     is DECEIT and SECRECY. The 2 year attracts new friends and experiences 
     by  pure  magnetism, and  the 2  energy brings  people together  quite 
     easily. 

     On the negative side,  you can  easily meet  someone during  this year 
     that is full of deceptions and  lies, but  paints a  wonderful picture 
     just the same.  It  is female  by nature,  full of  purpose, and  it's 
     favorite  day  is  Monday.   It  is  best  to  use  caution  with  all 
     relationships at this time until you are sure of their credentials and 
     intentions.   Relationships  will be  very unstable  during this  time 
     period and care should be exercised before making any commitments.

     This will be a time of less strain, tension and worry in your life and 
     you will notice an increase in emotional expression. Benefits can come 
     from matters of real estate or you may decide to move to a new  house.  
     You will notice changes in your attitude and the way you perceive  the 
     world around you and notice that  your living  conditions take  a turn 
     for the better, but only through your own  initiative. Avoid  hurrying 
     around during this year, and learn how to slow down and try to be more 
     patient.

     The 2  Year is  very passive  by nature,  when you  will find  it very 
     difficult to make any decisions. Perhaps therein lies the key  to this 
     year, as the Universe is making it difficult for decisions because you 
     are  not  supposed  to  take action  at this  time. Instead  of making 
     formidable approaches in your life, stay more in the background and be 
     an  observer,  peacemaker  or  mediator for  others. Partnerships  can 
     prosper because you are  concerned with  the other  person as  well as 
     yourself. Creative and artistic  pursuits are  very inspired  and your 
     inspirations will come to you telepathically. In all areas of  life be 
     prepared for unexpected events. All good  deeds will  be blessed  with 
     positive results,  but wicked  intentions will  have equal  injustices 
     returned to them.

     Impatience  is  your  mortal  enemy  now  and  you  should  use   this 
     opportunity to watch and wait rather  than act.   Partnerships whether 
     marriage  or  business is  favorable IF  you use  your good  sense and 
     perception.

     The helping and healings  fields, charities  and community  groups can 
     benefit by your presence  and one  disadvantage of  this placement  is 
     denying your own needs over the  needs of  others. Shyness  can put  a 
     damper on making new acquaintances and contacts with others from which 
     you can ultimately benefit.

     Another danger of this time period is that you will be very  sensitive 
     to things around you.  Because of  this sensitivity  you may  withdraw 
     from others instead of  making a  contribution. You  will be  the last 
     person to try to  dominate situations  now.  Consideration  for others 
     and their feelings is very strong.

     Rather than launch new projects now, iron out all of  the little  bugs 
     that may be connected to it. If you don't, someone will only  throw it 
     up in your face later. It is the time to work out  all of  the details 
     you can think of and some that you can't.  When you are  finished with 
     your project and ready to submit it, reexamine  it very  carefully and 
     you will find some errors. You  will probably  feel defeated  but keep 
     the faith until next year, when the key is self-expression.

     Emotional matters can get  out of  hand like  they sometimes  do, just 
     don't blow them out of proportion.  Try to  stay calm  especially with 
     parents or older people. This year represents a challenge and a chance 
     to see how cool you can remain in the face of a storm. This is a  test 
     and only a test of your weakest point.  Friendships can  grow and  the 
     ones that have not been up to par or have been under  some stress  can 
     be  strengthened.   Pay  extra  attention to  the digestive  track and 
     stomach area as upsets can occur. Vulnerable times for your health and 
     overworking the body are January, February and July. Promotions can be 
     expected  inside  organizations or  work, and  traveling done  will be 
     short trips rather than long ones.

     Whatever you have started to do in the #1 year can expand  now. People 
     associated with the astrological  signs Cancer,  Taurus and  Libra are 
     indicated.

     This will prove to  be an  excellent time  for building  or remodeling 
     your home. Perhaps you will build a get away retreat  to get  away to. 
     Situations requiring you to use forcefulness  or work  with crude  and 
     mean people would upset you very much.

     While studying the Hindu scriptures, I found that while in  the number 
     2 personal year, you  can find  friendship with  people born  with the 
     numbers 1 or 3 as a birth number or with people in a 1  or 3  personal 
     year. You will not get along with people who have 5 or 4 as  a destiny 
     number or in a 5 or 4 year. People who are in a 6, 8 or 9 year or have 
     a 6, 8 or 9 destiny number will  be neither  bad or  good, but  rather 
     neutral.

     Career Opportunities: Any career that allows you to work out the small 
     details, catering, store clerk, chef or  cook, engineer,  housekeeper, 
     lawyer, real  estate agent,  accountant, negotiator,  jeweler, healer, 
     laboratory work,  electronics, bookkeeper  or computers,  post office, 
     telephone sales or equipment  operator, counselor,  waitress, domestic 
     and home products or secretarial work.

     3 Personal Year

     An Active/Aggressive year

     Keywords:  Activity,  Busy,  Advancement,  Nervous  Energy,  Sleepless 
     Nights, Impulsive Mistakes, Actions  Regretted, Confusion,  Schooling, 
     Technology.

     Tarot Association:The Empress: Abundance, rewards, relating to nature, 
     connections to earth, outdoor activity, fertility.

     News or opportunities that  arrive completely  out of  the blue  color 
     this  time  period.   Impulsive  responses  to  situations  are  to be 
     expected, but should be controlled to avoid mistakes.

     This can be a year of achievement and success unless you squander  all 
     the good  things you  acquire during  this year.   Social success  and 
     popularity will grow now, and you will enjoy spending good  times with 
     special friends. Jupiter is the ruling planet of the 3  personal year, 
     which expands good luck and good  fortune. Friends  can offer  advice, 
     good times and moral support when needed, and you can count on  people 
     in times of trouble. This is a great year to form new  friendships and 
     revel  in  the  old  ones. Long  distance travel,  the higher  thought 
     processes, philosophy and good  times are  accented as  well in  the 3 
     personal year.

     This  is  an auspicious  time to  finish projects  that you  have been 
     working on, and for  making new  friends. Make  sure you  put any  new 
     friends to the test before trusting them completely.  Should you  be a 
     writer or speaker, use caution under this influence to prevent  saying 
     or writing things you are sure to regret at a later date.  Although no 
     time is good for being involved  in a  law suit,  the 3  personal year 
     does not support a favorable outcome to it. This is an excellent  time 
     for getting a promotion  on the  job or  some kind  of advancement  is 
     indicated.

     The 3 personal year is a time to EXPRESS yourself,  become the  center 
     of attention, have people notice you and your  abilities, become  more 
     aware of your appearance and purchase a new  wardrobe. This  can be  a 
     very lucky time for you, so don't forget to play  $1 on  your favorite 
     numbers. Since the 3 is such a fertile number, there can be a birth of 
     a child at this time. If you can,  mix business  with pleasure  to get 
     the most out of your time spent with others. Self indulgences at  this 
     time will not only cost you if you over spend, but you can put  weight 
     on as well.

     Be careful of what you sign, put in writing, or what you say to others 
     now, and examine all documents carefully for content. If you  have any 
     questions about contracts or anything in writing, make  sure they  are 
     clearly explained  to your  satisfaction to  avoid potentially  costly 
     mistakes.  Profits  can come  to you  from something  you write  or by 
     giving lectures, or perhaps you can  even sell  a play,  script or  an 
     idea.   This  year  is  wonderful  if  you have  something to  sell or 
     merchandise and a good year to sell merchandise you no longer need  or 
     have any value to you. It is also  a time  of achievement  or failure, 
     according to the effort that you apply to this fortunate year, or  the 
     lack of it.

     It would drive you up a wall if you couldn't mingle with  others, were 
     confined to a very boring conventional routine, or have your  creative 
     ideas restrained. The down side here is expecting too much  reward for 
     too little work.

     One  danger  of  this  time period  is retreating  into yourself,  and 
     finding that social situations are far  too uncomfortable  for you  to 
     handle. You may very well choose to keep  your feelings  hidden inside 
     although there is plenty of warmth and friendliness to be found.

     Since entertainment of any kind is also a side effect of this  number, 
     then you may find comfort in the silver screen and  movies as  well as 
     night clubs and any other places that people gather in a group.

     Positive attitudes will win the day now, so avoid excess  worrying and 
     unhappiness  as  well  as  people  who  may  try  to  bring  you down. 
     Opportunities  for  love and  romance are  right, but  they are  to be 
     considered flirtatious rather than the lasting kind, or they can leave 
     you very UNDECIDED in which way to go.

     Stress,  overworking  the  physical  body,  nervousness  and emotional 
     disturbances can  be expected.   Vulnerable times  for the  health and 
     overwork are December, February, June and September.

     On the negative side, this will be a difficult time for making up your 
     mind on a direction in life, as "confusion"  colors this  time period. 
     What direction in life do I take or which job do I  choose, what  kind 
     of work do I want to do? These all fall under the indecisive nature of 
     the 3.  The very job that you depend on for security can easily become 
     difficult to bear now, and your  responsibilities to  them may  wither 
     and die  to some  degree leaving  you with  the eternal  question "Who 
     needs the aggravation?". The Universe is  supplying lots  of questions 
     for you now, but will not be so  generous with  the answers,  probably 
     because "confusion and loss of direction" are positive things to  deal 
     with from time to time, so that we can get a clearer  perspective when 
     the 4 year, cycle or month arrives.  That is when we put all of  those 
     thoughts into concrete form.

     You may consider including more rest  this year  because of  the tasks 
     and hard work that are in store for  you next  year.  Your  ideas will 
     begin to take real form then, but only through difficult work.

     While studying the Hindu scriptures, I found that while in  the number 
     3 personal year, you  can find  friendship with  people born  with the 
     numbers 1, 2 or 9 as a birth  number or  with people  in a  1, 2  or 9 
     personal year. You will not get along with people who have 5 or 6 as a 
     destiny number or in a 5 or 6 year. People who are in a 8 or 4 year or 
     have a 8 or 4 destiny number will be neither bad or  good, but  rather 
     neutral.

     Career Opportunities: Administrator, civil service, corporate  lawyer, 
     engineer,  judge,  juror,  pastor,  philosopher,  politician,  trouble 
     shooter, arts and crafts,  advertising, sales,  real estate,  cooking, 
     travel or commercial art, the entertainment industry, acting, dancing, 
     florist, clothing design, beautician, hostess, photography,  educating 
     or working with children, jewelry.

     4 Personal Year

     A Passive/Non-aggressive year

     Keywords: Hard work and Earned Money,  The home,  Stress, Frustration, 
     Health, Tired, Money very  tight, Be  practical, Progress  in life  on 
     hold.

     Tarot Association: The Emperor  : Organized,  applying the  intellect, 
     staying with plans, strict regimen.

     The 4 personal year  can put  "stress" into  your relationships,  make 
     your  job  difficult or  unbearable, make  life very  frustrating, and 
     teach you to live within a very structured and limited  lifestyle. You 
     will look at your life in a much different way, causing you to be much 
     more mature and responsible. Every aspect of life  can be  challenged, 
     and this will be quite a change from the easygoing  lifestyle of  last 
     year. A lot will be required of you this year,  and you  will have  to 
     give until it hurts in any situation, and then a bit more.

     The 4  year represents  a year  of hard  work, but  accomplishments to 
     match for your strenuous efforts. Whatever you do, remain practical in 
     all undertakings. Organize your goals first and then see them  through 
     to  their  conclusion. You  may look  at the  work you  are doing  and 
     question whether you want to finish  it, or  if it  is right  for you. 
     Build strong foundations NOW in anything you do  if you  want them  to 
     stand the test of time. The 4 is cold, intellectual and slow in nature 
     and legalities  without mercy,  kindness or  understanding can  occur. 
     Ruled by Saturn the overseer, the 4 is  the teacher  and the  stopping 
     mechanism that brings you back to reality. Since you had so many great 
     ideas last year (3 Year), this is the time to  make them  real as  the 
     time for fun is over! Expenditures are sure to outweigh income now but 
     you can make it if you think everything through first.   The potential 
     for accomplishments  are outstanding  as the  4 is  a busy  year, when 
     money  comes  in  and  money  goes  out!   Look  into making  some new 
     investments for the future during this year.

     You can  easily overcome  any obstacles  and unforeseen  problems that 
     arise now by virtue of your own strength  to endure  difficulties that 
     surround you now. Financial gains and  increases can  come to  you, or 
     you may choose to move to a new home now as well.   You may  choose to 
     marry at this time, or move in with someone on  a permanent  basis. If 
     you are married, a child can come to you. If you have to deal with the 
     government or people of authority, this is an excellent time to do so. 
     Spiritual and religious aspirations are favored as well.

     The 4 year is an auspicious time for cleaning and working on  areas of 
     your home that need work.  There will be an increased desire for money 
     to make changes and corrections in your present  environment. Physical 
     fitness,  jogging,  joining  a  gym or  other physical  activities are 
     favored. Physical relationships will be stimulating  and rewarding  as 
     well, and one reward (If you are a male) is fatherhood.  Remember that 
     in monetary affairs, the proportion you expend in efforts, will be the 
     direct proportion you receive for those efforts. This is because the 4 
     represents EARNED money. The negative side of this need for  money and 
     possessions is DEBTS that now must be satisfied. So, if  you got  into 
     debt easily at this time, it will take a lot of work to get out of it! 
     In addition to working on the home, your present living conditions and 
     your  relationship  with  family  members  will  take  on   a  greater 
     importance as well.

     If you have just ended a relationship, you might want to take the next 
     couple of years off and put the events in the past under a microscope. 
     What is it you require from another person? What is  it that  you need 
     for yourself? How was this relationship different from others? What do 
     you need from the next one?  This process  should apply  to all  areas 
     that may have failed for some reason or another.

     Business, emotional and physical limitations can be expected in the  4 
     year and sensitive areas for your  health are  pains in  the head  and 
     back,  bladder  and  kidneys.   There can  be some  disabling problems 
     associated with the back and spine as well.   The vulnerable  time for 
     health and overwork are January, February, July, August and September. 
     You  will  easily  attract  weird  and  unusual or  people older  than 
     yourself as well as  people from  former relations.   The astrological 
     signs Gemini, Aquarius and Leo are highlighted and  any travel  may be 
     due to the illness of someone.

     A time of feeling weighed down, but think of the compensation for  the 
     effort.  It  would drive  you crazy  if you  couldn't work  within the 
     confines  of  a  structured  environment  or   in  an   undefined  job 
     description.   Tireless  efforts are  your cup  of tea,  and temporary 
     setbacks in plans will not stop you from succeeding once you put  your 
     mind  to  it.   You  will  gladly  open  your  home  to   friends  and 
     acquaintances but carefully schedule  your time  so that  all projects 
     can be done on time. You  will be  very cautious  in your  spending to 
     make ends meet and  you can  be somewhat  stubborn and  rigid in  your 
     thinking.

     One danger  of this  time period  is being  totally irresponsible  and 
     disorganized,  creating  chaotic conditions  for yourself  and others. 
     Learn to live with LIMITATIONS in your life to get the most out of the 
     4 energy. There are  many rewards  that will  come through  service to 
     other people in practical and down to earth ways and methods.

     If you use this year in a "Chaotic" way causing  problems for  others, 
     you may see yourself in some legal difficulties or even face some jail 
     time or confinement in some way.

     Romance  and  emotional  ties  can be  formed along  with friendships, 
     cementing family relationships and getting engaged or married.  People 
     will see you as rather serious rather than your normal happy self.

     While studying the Hindu scriptures, I found that while in  the number 
     4 personal year, you  can find  friendship with  people born  with the 
     numbers 5, 6 or 8 as a birth  number or  with people  in a  5, 6  or 8 
     personal year. You will not get along with people who have 1,  2 or  9 
     as a destiny number or in a 1, 2 or 9 year. People who are in a 3 year

     5 Personal Year

     An Active/Aggressive year

     Keywords: Changes, Breaking free from restrictions  - Quite  Suddenly, 
     Creative, Travel, Make decisions, Popular, Magnetic relationships.

     Tarot Association: Hierophant : Education, looking for deeper meaning, 
     search for knowledge.

     Changes fall under the influences of the number 5. Ruled by the planet 
     Mercury  it  indicates  travel  for  business  or  pleasure.   Another 
     indicator for Mercury is the use  of words  in any  form. Perhaps  you 
     will render  services for  others using  a word  processor or  write a 
     book. Lecturing, teaching, radio,  television, advertising,  telephone 
     sales  and  writing as  well as  any communication  career or  job are 
     highly favorable at this time. Consider turning some  details of  your 
     life over to other people if it becomes too much for you to handle. If 
     you write a book, you may want to let someone  else do  the publishing 
     or distributing.

     This is a year that will be financially stable for  you and  brings an 
     increase of friends. The 5 is  supportive of  business and  travel and 
     can  increase  your  appreciation  of  your   surroundings.   Business 
     partnerships can begin now, but be cautious when signing any new deals 
     or contracts without careful scrutinization.

     The communications fields such as writing, speaking or  lecturing will 
     enjoy success through popularity with the masses.  It's okay to take a 
     few risks or compete with others  now providing  you don't  overdo it. 
     Any business that is started within the 5  year will  go through  many 
     changes before  it settles  down, and  this is  a year  to expect  the 
     unexpected!

     The 5 year is a time  to make  some important  decisions, experiencing 
     increased  sexual  magnetism  and  finding  yourself  extremely  busy.  
     Meetings, appointments, errands, telephoning people, public  functions 
     and social occasions are favored.  You will find that suddenly  people 
     need your special expertise, which can leave you overwhelmed for  some 
     time off!  Communications are  sure to  increase, and  restless energy 
     will keep you very active.  Sexually, you may become quite magnetic to 
     the opposite sex, so  make sure  to surround  yourself with  desirable 
     people. Your nerves will be more on edge, so refrain  from any  drugs, 
     alcohol or stimulants. Be sure to keep your mind on what you are doing 
     to prevent accidents. Any marriages started under the 5 year  can face 
     difficulties through changes.

     Expect the  mind to  be stimulated  and the  gateway to  your thinking 
     processes to swing open for new data, knowledge and understanding. Use 
     this  time  to read,  write, compose  music, work  in the  theater and 
     institute physical exercise to gain the full potential of this energy.

     Your popularity is at a high  point now,  and every  effort should  be 
     made to take advantage of all opportunities that come to  you at  this 
     time. You have so many different activities going on that it might  be 
     difficult to  stick with  just one.   Any emergencies  or crisis  that 
     arrive can have you nicknamed "Johnny on the Spot", as you jump  in to 
     save the day.

     Friendly, well  intentioned, jovial  and social  impulses should  be a 
     welcomed relief from the rigidity of last year.   Are you  seeking the 
     appropriate  time  for  getting  rid  of  the past  and welcoming  new 
     experiences?   Well,  this  is  the  time!   Get out  of that  rut and 
     experience the world around you. See what exists  in the  world beyond 
     your present  understanding. The  5 has  the blessing  of getting  you 
     moving and you may very well  physically move  your home  or at  least 
     travel about.

     You can act somewhat irresponsible and reckless now, which can lead to 
     accidents.  Resources can easily go out the window  while spending  on 
     mindless inconsequentials to satisfy the ego and pleasure centers. You 
     can easily make financial mistakes as well that cause you to be  short 
     when you thought you were ahead of the game.

     Be prepared for romantic encounters of all kinds to find  you, usually 
     in people much younger than yourself.  The astrological  signs Taurus, 
     Gemini, Virgo and Libra are highlighted. All of  these good  times can 
     take its toll on you through insomnia, nervous  dysfunctions or  total 
     exhaustion. The months of June, September and December  are vulnerable 
     time for health and overwork.

     Go out and enjoy yourself now, as you  have earned  it. Here  is where 
     the compensation for all of that  hard work  from the  4 year  will be 
     found.  An interest in religion or spiritual matters can also  develop 
     during this year. The 5 personal year is quick in nature and  somewhat 
     careless  in  actions, so  check all  details twice  before completing 
     projects.  Do  some research  into something  you've always  wanted to 
     know about.

     Tedious routines would drive you up the wall now, so find something to 
     do that won't bore you because restlessness is  a major  factor to  be 
     dealt with under the 5.  Uncertainty is the sister to restlessness and 
     you may be questioning if you have made the right moves (especially if 
     you have moved to a new area), or taken a giant step  forward if  only 
     by the hair on your chinny-chin-chin or pulled yourself up by your own 
     bootstraps. You can get in trouble scattering your energies unless  of 
     course  many  different  areas  of  life  keep  you  active and  allow 
     departures from the norm, whatever normal is?

     One danger of this 5 energy is being overpowered by  the opportunities 
     that come to you now.  You may be  very inconsistent  in your  actions 
     and people will not be able to keep up with you. The real lesson comes 
     through getting on track with your life and staying with it. You  have 
     the ability to do many things now and be very gifted at  all of  them. 
     You also have the ability now to do anything you want and  will always 
     be involved in something new that will drive you and people around you 
     crazy. CHANGE is the  key, in  travel, unusual  places and  people and 
     above all an adventure or 3. The 5 has the  blessing of  returning to, 
     or finding your lost youth!

     Relationships can undergo the theory of  "change" as  well, especially 
     if they have become unbearable.  You may be making some decisions this 
     month about your relationship, perhaps it is in danger of  ending. The 
     6 year, month or cycle that follows can see that end finalized.

     While studying the Hindu scriptures, I found that while in  the number 
     5 personal year, you  can find  friendship with  people born  with the 
     numbers 1, 4 or 6 as a birth  number or  with people  in a  1, 4  or 6 
     personal year. You will  not get  along with  people who  have 2  as a 
     destiny number or in a 2 year. People who are in a 9, 3  or 8  year or 
     have a 9, 3  or 8  destiny number  will be  neither bad  or good,  but 
     rather neutral.

     Career Opportunities: Agent, Ad  writer, aviation,  columnist, writer, 
     secretary, clerk, publisher, speaker, proof reader, feature or comedic 
     writer,  salesman,  sound engineer,  translator, reporter,  lecturing, 
     dancing,  exploring  something  wild  and  different,   TV  or   radio 
     announcer, teaching, aviation and any kind of trouble shooting.

     6 Personal Year

     A Passive/Non-aggressive year

     Keywords:  Stable,  Protection,  People  come, People  leave, Divorce, 
     Services  for  others, Finances  protected, New  Jobs or  Careers, New 
     Loves.

     Tarot  Association:  The  Lovers  :  Bonds,  unions, getting  close to 
     others,  connections,  intimacy,  physical  attractions,  temptations, 
     choices made between right and wrong.

     Domestic matters directly pertaining to your  home are  the key  focus 
     now and responsibilities can come that  you may  not have  encountered 
     before.  Balance that checkbook, budget yourself  and be  realistic in 
     expenditures.  Cut  out all  but the  necessary now  and find  ways to 
     survive that not only feed the intellect, but the pocket book as well. 
     Turn down a thermostat,  put a  timer on  the hot-water  heater, limit 
     phone  calls,  eliminate  subscriptions  to magazines  you never  read 
     anyway, throw away those mail order flyers before  you read  them, put 
     away your credit cards and pay  cash, turn  off the  shopping channels 
     and avoid anything that says "free". Use cheaper brands of  foods than 
     the very best available, eat meals at home or brown bag it  instead of 
     eating out all the time. Find ways to  amuse yourself  at home  rather 
     than going out.

     This  is  an  excellent  time  for  family relationships,  romance and 
     conceiving a child should you desire to. It is an auspicious time  for 
     decorating, entertaining or enjoying  your surroundings.   If you  are 
     looking for a job, you can find one now, so be on the lookout. Sensual 
     or sexual  enjoyment is  heightened and  you can  find new  sources of 
     pleasure in that department. Unexpected wealth  and increases  in your 
     salary can easily occur as well.

     You may find family members leaving the nest as they go off  to school 
     or get married, babies arriving, relatives  needing help  can move  in 
     temporarily, family members can use your support during an illness  or 
     emotional crisis.  You may decide to settle down with a  relationships 
     in the day to day living sense.  This is an excellent time to firm  up 
     some muscles or investigate  new beauty  techniques. Expect  people to 
     seek you out for advice or tell you their problems. There can  also be 
     some court or government legalities that  arrive as  well. If  balance 
     has not been attained  in your  personal relationships,  there can  be 
     irreconcilable differences that can end or alter it in some way.

     While the 6 is a number of service, don't allow yourself to get caught 
     up in meddling or interfering in the lives  of others,  either through 
     pure intentions or self-satisfying purposes. In actuality, you will be 
     most  effective  by being  somewhat "detached"  from others  and avoid 
     distress over the smallest details.

     Housecleaning, repairing  and seeing  to the  needs of  your immediate 
     environment are all under the number 6. An  additional note  should be 
     made in the 6  year. Expect  by the  second month  of the  year to  be 
     helping  out  anyone  who  crosses  your  path, from  friends, family, 
     neighbors  and  the person  who is  looking for  $1. for  a drink  and 
     cigarettes. Help all that  you can  unless of  course it  infringes on 
     your own survival and well being.   Allocate a  very small  amount for 
     that person or persons who will eventually find you and hit you up for 
     money. This is one of the tests of the 6 year.

     You will be called on to help others under the 6 year.  Accept this as 
     a way of giving back all the nice things that have been done to or for 
     you.  A time of tithing either  monetarily, physically  or materially. 
     People may require more of you than you are willing to give,  but give 
     until it hurts and then some without regretting it. Yes, even to  that 
     one person who makes you cringe when they ask you for a favor. Do even 
     more for them to receive the full benefits and blessings of this year.  
     By the end of the year things will  have settled  down some.   You are 
     being tested in the  area of  love, unselfishness  and generosity.  It 
     cannot come back to you if you don't give it out first, then expect it 
     ten fold.

     A wonderful year for  romantic episodes,  love and  marriage but  also 
     separations, divorce, births and abortions. This  is also  a time  for 
     miscarriages of pregnancies as well. People in the  astrological signs 
     Taurus, Cancer and Libra  are accented.   Health problems  can develop 
     affecting the tonsils, vocal  cords, lungs,  heart, nose,  breasts and 
     throat. Vulnerable times for health and overwork are May, October  and 
     November. Recognition  and improvements  in circumstances  are favored 
     but travels are likely to be limited now.

     Romance is sure to be in the air now, as you strive  to be  married or 
     have  friends  near by  to talk  to.  Crude  behavior in  any form  is 
     stifling to your sympathetic nature and you will stay as far away from 
     rude or  obnoxious people  as possible.   You may  buy new  clothes or 
     engage in a new  appearance to  reflect your  loving and  affectionate 
     moods and marriages that  take place  during a  6 year,  stand a  good 
     chance of lasting. Make commitments to love and relationships now.

     Actually, it isn't a bad year if you get into a routine and accept the 
     fact that you are taking care of things around you that have supported 
     you. Get into harmony with your life and the universe will assist your 
     endeavors.

     Employment  prospects  are  deemed  excellent  and   occupational  and 
     financial burdens should be lessened due to the  beneficial protection 
     of  the  number  6.   You  may  not save  very much,  but you  will be 
     comfortable and prosperous. this is an excellent year to promote  your 
     business and enjoy the rewards from it.

     Educational matters can advance now, and perhaps you will take a class 
     or teach one. Learning is favorable whether through  school or  day to 
     day experiences that will prove to be very uplifting. Perhaps  a study 
     course at home on the educational channels would be different.  At any 
     rate you will try to improve yourself on any level you feel  deficient 
     in.  It would drive  you close  to insanity  to feel  unappreciated or 
     underpaid for what you feel is fair compensation for your efforts.

     Marriage  will  bring  you  happiness now  because of  your harmonious 
     attitude, and Venus is the traditional ruler of  the 6  personal year. 
     This is an excellent year for marriage, home,  family and  loved ones. 
     Financial protection in some way will be with you this year.

     One  danger  of the  6 personal  year energy  is being  overpowered by 
     RESPONSIBILITIES  and  becoming  a  door  mat   for  people   in  your 
     environment.   You  are so  willing to  help others  that you  may not 
     realize that people may be taking  advantage of  your good  nature. Be 
     willing to help others out of love and friendship and  help others  to 
     stand on their own two feet. You can easily be  called upon  to be  of 
     service to others way beyond the call of work and service and feel you 
     are being used, or perform a service that defies explanation.  You may 
     be used, but I believe you are being "tested" in the area  of strength 
     of character. Perhaps being used is  a tool  that the  universe judges 
     you by and sets up positive circumstances for the future. The work and 
     service  that  you perform  for others  can leave  you with  a lot  of 
     unanswered  questions,  but  provide  positive  side  effects  in  the 
     process.   If  you  provide  help  for  someone else,  see it  through 
     unemotionally and then be on your way. Expect very little  thanks, but 
     know you have done something to help another human being.

     Sacrifices  involving  forgiveness,  compassion,  service  to  others, 
     understanding  and  love  are  emphasized.  Humanitarian  efforts that 
     demand a great deal of your  time and  dedication such  as counseling, 
     teaching or educating others will be fulfilling, but exhausting.

     There can also be difficulties in relationships with  others. You  can 
     become  a  very effective  teacher for  others if  you so  choose, and 
     artistic and creative abilities are heightened. You may also seek  the 
     intimacy of marriage, learning to balance your life through hard  work 
     to make it work.

     While studying the Hindu scriptures, I found that while in  the number 
     6 personal year, you  can find  friendship with  people born  with the 
     numbers 4, 5 or 8 as a birth  number or  with people  in a  4, 5  or 8 
     personal year. You will not get along with people who have 1 or 2 as a 
     destiny number or in a 1 or 2 year. People who are in a 3 or 9 year or 
     have a 3 or 9 destiny number will be neither bad or  good, but  rather 
     neutral.

     Career  Opportunities:  Acting, artist,  beautician, singer,  teacher, 
     tutor, professor,  drama coach,  make-up specialist,  interior design, 
     entertainment director, beautician, writer of how  to do  it books  or 
     videos,  gourmet  cook,  nutritionist,  exercise  trainer   or  coach, 
     domesticated,  medical  fields  and  counseling, volunteer,  scouting, 
     social work, waitressing, music, management.

     7 Personal Year

     An Active/Aggressive year

     Keywords:  Withdrawn,  Depression,  Spiritual,  Health, Money  losses, 
     Vacations, Legal issues, Nursing or caring for others, Spouses health, 
     Thefts.

     Tarot Associations: The Chariot  : Reaching  goals, winning,  success, 
     rising  above  any  temptations,  a master  of one's  emotions, curbed 
     impulses, holding back anger, in possession of the reins of power.

     The  pace  slows  down  from  the  affairs  of  last  year,  so expect 
     postponements in business and financial affairs. Physical energy  will 
     be on the low side so learn to pace yourself. You will easily affected 
     by worrying, annoyances from  others, skin  problems, pimples,  rashes 
     and  digestive  problems.   Vulnerable  months  for  your  health  and 
     overworking the body are January, February, July and  August. Problems 
     in health can also occur in close family members as well.

     You may find that  more misunderstandings  and difficulties  arrive in 
     your  life  at this  time and  business matters  will suffer  setbacks 
     requiring more work for less wages. Court cases and law suits and  the 
     settlement thereof are favored now. Put  your friends  to the  test to 
     see if  they are  true friends  at this  time. I  have also  seen this 
     number  come  up several  times in  people who  look outside  of their 
     current relationship for comfort (infidelity).

     This is not a good time to take risks and use care in matters  of love 
     and romance to avoid tarnishing your reputation. The difficulties that 
     arrive now are designed to test you through obstacles. People involved 
     in healing, occult fields or astrology will find good fortune. You may 
     find work in legal fields or in nursing or caring for others as well.

     This  is  a  wonderful  time  for  research,  occult  philosophies and 
     spiritual  aspirations.   The  intuitive  process  is  on target,  and 
     mystical tendencies can emerge.  While this  is a  time of  withdrawal 
     from others, make sure to be in touch with the needs of others so  you 
     do not  hurt someone's  feelings. Relationships  entered into  at this 
     time should not be analyzed to death, but enjoyed for  what they  are.  
     Keep  your  needs practical  and your  relationships with  others more 
     personal. One of the dangers of the 7 year and  relationships, is  the 
     person you  are interested  in may  already be  married. You  probably 
     won't marry this year, but when  you come  into your  8 year,  that is 
     quite a different story.

     The 7 year is a time to be patient and don't force  issues. Vacations, 
     retreats  or  being left  alone are  favored as  outer activities  and 
     interests are  lessened as  you become  more aware  of your  spiritual 
     side. You have done your work, now let the universe take over. Worries 
     should be put aside, because despite whatever you  think, things  WILL 
     work themselves out. The Universe is telling you to stop  your efforts 
     and rest, but if you don't, then you will be forced to rest through an 
     illness. All metaphysical studies are favored  now and  your intuition 
     and  dreams  will  be  correct. Some  true telepathic  experiences are 
     possible. Make sure to check the fine print in all  legal papers  that 
     you sign during the 7 year.

     The 7 also represents  the ultimate  in sacrifices  for other  people, 
     whether they are your children or  other members  of your  family that 
     you feel responsible for. You may literally "nail yourself to a cross" 
     to see to the  comfort and  caring of  others, and  although there  is 
     nothing wrong with this, don't forget your own needs in the process.

     Know  when  sacrifices for  others becomes  self abuse,  and recognize 
     "guilt" from past actions that can manifest as  caring for  others. At 
     some point in your efforts, learn to let go and let God!

     You might notice that at the time of the transition  from the  6 to  7 
     year  you  are  able  to "give"  more, and  if this  coincides with  a 
     marriage  you  will  notice  that making  changes or  adopting to  new 
     circumstances will be easier to do. You may be sacrificing space for a 
     new  "live  in"  partner  now  or  find you  are required  to give  up 
     something of yourself for another.

     You can expect some  sort of  recognition to  find you  this year  and 
     rocket you into new areas and new possibilities.  This is  a time  for 
     corrections to take place within and should not be used to expand your 
     present conditions. Take advantage of all  opportunities that  come to 
     you from a distance, as unexpected good fortune can come  your way.  A 
     career dealing with travel, communication or distances would be ideal.

     Because you are in more of a spiritual mode, everyday social life will 
     not appeal to you. Philosophy, new age subjects and mysticism are much 
     more to your forte. You will  benefit from  searching quietly  within, 
     then  venturing  into  the  outside  world   for  answers.   Spiritual 
     revelations are sure to have quite an impact on who  and what  you are 
     and how you fit into the grand scheme of things. Learn how to meditate 
     to  put  your  life  in  balance,  become  more  in harmony  with your 
     surroundings  and  become more  focused. You  will gain  intuitive and 
     spiritual wisdom as a result, as you are trying to  perfect the  inner 
     self.  You  will  be  misunderstood  especially  by  loved   ones  and 
     associates  and  explaining  yourself  may  be  helpful  to  alleviate 
     inharmonious attitudes.

     Secrets that you did not want others to know about may appear.  Do not 
     expect love and romance to flourish in this time of  isolation but  if 
     it should come up, it will  probably be  with a  Cancerian or  Piscean 
     personality. Do not hope to be productive in your work as interests in 
     far off places will be much  more appealing  to you.  The Moon  is the 
     ruler of Cancer and the number  7, but  Neptune is  sometimes assigned 
     here as well because of the very high spiritual vibrations.

     Loneliness may find you as well, that is okay, you can't listen to the 
     inner beatings of your soul if you are talking all of the time.

     Let the past remain  the past  NOW, let  it go  and get  on with  your 
     destiny. Money vibes are good if you remember  to take  what you  need 
     and let the rest go, as material aspirations will be frowned upon. New 
     conclusions to old problems and a new outlook on life can now develop.

     The number 7 does not support relationships because it is a number  of 
     separation and not commitment. There can be a sense of never belonging 
     and your need to grow in the marriage can easily be stifled.

     Under the influence of the 7 you will be able to take a step back from 
     family problems and disagreements  and see  the whole  picture without 
     getting personally involved. This can be  good for  you especially  if 
     you haven't learned to "lovingly detach"  yourself from  circumstances 
     that you are too close to  emotionally. Now  you can  be a  successful 
     mediator who is unemotionally involved in other peoples problems. This 
     is the universes way of giving you a tranquilizer.

     One danger of the 7 energy is becoming a recluse and not  allowing the 
     influence of being around others to help you grow. The  material world 
     becomes more important and dealing with new found problems that arrive 
     can remove you from inner growth. If you get your life back  on track, 
     then  and  only  then  life  will  have  more  meaning  for  you. Work 
     effectively in teaching, counseling, researching or fields that  allow 
     you to use and trust your INTUITIVE side  and spiritual  knowledge and 
     do not put importance on material gain. In that way  you will  be both 
     fulfilled  and  satisfied  with  the results.  This can  be a  time of 
     ultimate wisdom, perceptions and faith to  become part  of your  total 
     being.  Learn  to  spend  quality  time  by  yourself  without feeling 
     isolated. Your ultimate development depends on  getting into  yourself 
     and finding your own faith and peace. Going  after opportunities  will 
     not work now, as you must wait for them to find you.

     People will have a difficult time getting to know you now, choosing to 
     keep your private life very private. People may  see you  as cold  and 
     reserved, perhaps with a hardened exterior. Others may not realize  it 
     is just surface protection, but they  will find  it very  difficult to 
     penetrate. You may rely more on yourself now because you are afraid to 
     trust others, and you will not  ask others  to trust  you either.  You 
     will not adapt to things very  well, choosing  to do  things your  own 
     way.

     While studying the Hindu scriptures, I found that while in  the number 
     7 personal year, you  can find  friendship with  people born  with the 
     numbers 8, 6 or 5 as a birth  number or  with people  in a  8, 6  or 5 
     personal year. You will not get along with people who have 1,  2 or  9 
     as a destiny number or in a 1, 2 or 9 year. People who are in a 3 year 
     or have a 3 destiny number  will be  neither bad  or good,  but rather 
     neutral.

     Career  Opportunities:  Arbitration,  astrology,  scientist,  musician 
     using modern technology, psychic  investigator, researcher,  inventor, 
     healer, public leader, computers, publishing, law, history, insurance, 
     philosophy,  architecture,  medicine,  antiques,  marine  research  or 
     study,  sailing,  the navy,  the clergy,  detective, money  advisor or 
     judge.

     8 Personal Year

     A Passive/Non-aggressive year

     Keywords: Advancement, Power, Luck,  Travel, Insensitive,  Standing up 
     for oneself, Strength, Energy, Overcoming Obstacles, Selfishness.

     Tarot Association : Strength  : Endurance,  stamina, patience,  taking 
     one's  time,  refusing  to  become  angry,  tolerance,  self  control, 
     strength of love.

     Success in finances and business affairs are indicated  by the  number 
     8. Remember to share the wealth with those  in need  to reap  the full 
     benefit of this very powerful number.  Be practical  and efficient  in 
     all you do at this time. Sometimes circumstances will not be easy  and 
     you  have  to  take  care  to  be  honest  in  applying  your energies 
     precisely. Employ justice with mercy in  every area  of your  life and 
     remember, what goes around, comes around. Energy and endurance are  in 
     abundance  this  year.  The  vibration  of  the 8  is intellectual  so 
     prepare, think and apply the power that is yours. Now is the  time for 
     action, so stop deliberating and do!  Physically you  will be  feeling 
     good  and  have  the  energy  to  bring  all  tasks  to  a  successful 
     conclusion.

     Remember that the opportunities  for success  are here  now, but  like 
     everything else there are stipulations. One of them implies that  just 
     because a certain degree of "luck"  has arrived  in your  life doesn't 
     mean you can sit back on  your laurels  and it  will come  to you.  In 
     certain ways it will, but for the most part, you have to work for your 
     rewards.  Another  area  that  is important  is learning  to carefully 
     balance your money or  material side  with your  spiritual side.  Your 
     spiritual side will require you to look at your life and come to terms 
     with how and where  the abundance  that has  been thrust  upon you  is 
     used. If you make money through the misfortune of others for instance, 
     are you turning a certain amount of that money back to the unfortunate 
     to keep the influences turning full circle, or  are you  using it  for 
     your own greed. Fear not, the universe will be the final judge!

     Social work and politics are favored,  but health  matters may  suffer 
     somewhat and  precautions are  advised, especially  around stress  and 
     worry. It might be helpful to  drink more  fluids and  juices and  use 
     more spices such as GARLIC to rid the blood of  toxins and  strengthen 
     the  heart.  You will  be victorious  over your  enemies and  in legal 
     matters, the odds turn in your favor.

     Great rewards, job advancements,  recognition, raises,  honors, awards 
     and legacies are possible if your KARMA has been positive, BUT, if you 
     have been bad or  used your  life in  the misfortune  of others,  then 
     material losses, financial problems, unemployment or  total bankruptcy 
     will occur. This can  be a  time of  greatly increased  workloads that 
     brings greater obligations and stress into your life to deal with. You 
     can receive an inheritance, win the lottery or smaller amounts at this 
     time. You will find that your sexual needs build or reach a  peak more 
     than  at  other  times  which may  overwhelm you,  as well  as others, 
     needing a  constant outlet  for its  expression. Understand  that this 
     outlet for your sexuality must be spiritually fulfilling  at the  same 
     time, or it will be a very unfulfilling experience.

     Large  corporations  and  organizations  have the  greatest chance  of 
     success for  you now.  Impatience to  reach your  goals, along  with a 
     constant need to scheme to get ahead are avenues you should avoid. Let 
     things progress at their own pace.  This goes  for love  relationships 
     that start now as well. Don't push it,  let it  become unglued  all by 
     itself.

     Advancements can be seen  in personal  power, business  agreements and 
     contacts with the outer world. Emotional decisions will  work to  your 
     detriment as well as forcing issues which cause injury to yourself. It 
     would be much better  for you  to stay  "unemotional" and  detached in 
     matters of love until you are  sure where  the relationship  is going. 
     Avoid  being  too  demanding  and  dominant  over others.  Use a  more 
     peaceful form of persuasion.  This is  a difficult  time for  handling 
     emotional problems pertaining to the family as your  emotions will  be 
     out of whack.

     Saturn, the ruler of Capricorn, is the ruler  of big  business. Money, 
     power and recognition are yours but like everything else, if you apply 
     it destructively, you lose the effort. Anyone who holds you  back from 
     using your analytical prowess would drive you crazy.

     Although this is a wonderful year for the big break  to come,  you can 
     expect  past  debts  to  be  called  due  as  well. Associations  with 
     marriage, divorce, intimate relations and pregnancy will be  issues to 
     be dealt with. New relationships can very well  find their  beginnings 
     here, or you may want to rekindle relationships from your past. Health 
     issues   include   bones,  knees,   headaches,  blood,   liver,  bile, 
     constipation, or  teeth. Avoid  any animal  foods and  eat vegetables, 
     fruits and  herbs. Vulnerable  months for  health and  overworking the 
     body  are  December,  January,  February and  July. Associations  with 
     Capricorn or Libra people are accented. This is not an auspicious time 
     to travel and if you try to, blocks will be put in your way  that will 
     prevent it every time.

     One danger of the 8 energy is a stubborn and rigid nature. You will be 
     more efficient in your  work and  filled with  energy. Organizing  and 
     administering  abilities  are  heightened.  You  can  easily  be   the 
     inspiration for others to follow. Be careful in  your quest  for money 
     now, you may be VERY successful, but find little pleasure  in what  it 
     can do for you. You may abuse the  power and  influence you  have over 
     others and be intolerant to their faults. People  won't like  you very 
     much! On the other hand, the 8 energy may be afraid to take any  risks 
     at  all  in  asserting  the  self   image,  feeling   limitations  and 
     dissatisfaction. The goal with  this energy  is the  SATISFACTION that 
     allows you to be free to do what  you want  and take  control of  your 
     life and not to let the money and power take  control of  you for  its 
     own end and purpose.

     While studying the Hindu scriptures, I found that while in  the number 
     8 personal year, you  can find  friendship with  people born  with the 
     numbers 4, 5 or 6 as a birth  number or  with people  in a  4, 5  or 6 
     personal year. You will not get along with people who have 1,  2 or  9 
     as a destiny number or in a 1, 2 or 9 year. People who are in a 3 year 
     or have  3 destiny  number will  be neither  bad or  good, but  rather 
     neutral.

     Career  Opportunities:   Financial  expert,   steel  worker,   barber, 
     carpenter,  cashier,  broker,  charity  organizer,  prison  attendant, 
     politics, government work, real estate, printing, non-fiction writing, 
     public speaker and anything to do with reports,  data or  intelligence 
     are highlighted,  big business,  purchaser, athletics,  manufacturing, 
     investments,  lawyers  for  large   corporations,  convenience   store 
     manager.

     9 Personal Year

     Keywords: The ending of all matters, Letting go of the past, The  past 
     returns, People  from your  past, Deep  emotions, Crazy  Dreams, Money 
     goes out.

     Tarot Association : The Hermit : Seeking guidance, looking inward  for 
     answers,  being  still,  needing  the truth  above all  else, personal 
     quest,  needing  a  new  direction,  seeking   solitude,  withdrawing, 
     seclusion.

     A time  for PURGING  yourself from  the past,  enabling the  future to 
     bring new experiences. The past comes alive through  memories of  both 
     good and bad times.  It is  time to  put them  to rest  and await  the 
     rebirth of the Number 1 year. If you were married  during the  8 year, 
     cycle or month, then the 9 year, cycle or month can be  considered the 
     "getting to know you"  syndrome, where  all of  your programming  from 
     your single days can  be changed  very quickly  into "we"  and how  we 
     operate as a unit, instead of "me" as a single entity. Old  habits and 
     thoughts  die  hard and  the mighty  9 sees  to it  that thoughts  and 
     attitudes that need to be changed so that you can function as  a unit, 
     die  or  are  modified.  This  may  very  well  prove  to  be  a  very 
     "Frustrating" time for you as we hold on to the old and try to  reject 
     the  new.  The  9  also  gives  us the  ability to  put others  before 
     ourselves, to help your new partner  feel comfortable  in a  different 
     environment, especially if they are moving into your home and they may 
     feel somewhat uncomfortable in your space.

     This is an excellent time to  clear out  the "old"  garbage from  your 
     life  that  is not  working anymore  and make  changes, whether  it is 
     insurance companies who don't  have your  best interests  at heart  or 
     people that provide a service to you that you can no longer  tolerate. 
     Any  conditions  or  situations  that don't  work any  more should  be 
     reevaluated or replaced at this time.

     This  is  an auspicious  time to  gain favors  from the  government or 
     people in authority. You can wind up in some sort of disagreements  or 
     experience harsh words with  someone, so  be careful  in your  speech. 
     Competition with others will  work out  well now  and some  honors can 
     come to you. You may be  fortunate in  unexpected financial  gains, in 
     lotteries or other source.

     The nine brings with  it a  myriad of  experiences. This  is the  last 
     number and the closing  of a  cycle. It  indicates that  your life  or 
     lifestyle is now ready to experience  something different.  All things 
     come to an end to allow the new to have its time. Activities come to a 
     head in  the 9  year. The  9 energy  is very  EMOTIONALLY charged  and 
     should you feel the need to have a good cry, let it  all loose.  A pet 
     or a person can pass out of your life at  this time  leaving you  very 
     upset, especially if this was a friendship that you thought  was worth 
     the  effort  and  you  have  a  lot  of  personal  time  invested  in. 
     Friendships that have been going on for years  can end  as quickly  as 
     they started without even a word as to what happened to change things, 
     or why the person suddenly won't speak to you anymore,  or acknowledge 
     your presence in the universe. This is the "killer" part of the number 
     9.  Some  friendships  were  just  meant  to pass  from existence  now 
     especially if they had been getting kind of stale for some time.

     A time of transition and letting go of unnecessary things in our lives 
     has arrived. Should we be foolish enough to  try to  hang on  to them, 
     the universe and its wisdom will find ways  for us  to have  them part 
     from us. Changes in  career, profession  or job  can occur  along with 
     changes   in   residence,   choosing   to  relocate.   Charitable  and 
     humanitarian deeds are stressed bringing fulfillment  with it.  Try to 
     work WITH others for a common  goal that  will benefit  the masses  of 
     people. Sympathy, understanding of the plights  of others,  compassion 
     and love should be extended to  all people  that you  come in  contact 
     with now. Friendships from  your past  take on  a greater  meaning and 
     wonderful new relationships can develop. Try  to complete  all of  the 
     goals and  projects that  you have  been working  on at  this time.  A 
     career in medicine or the nursing profession can  very well  appeal to 
     you now, or you may want to start medical school or nursing school.

     Among other things that can disappear (enforced rather than given  up) 
     are automobiles that have outworn their usefulness either  by breaking 
     down beyond repair or through accidents that forcibly  take them  from 
     our lives, no matter how much we care about them. In fact, the more we 
     do care about them, the more  abruptly they  are taken  and all  "1's" 
     following the "9" year, cycle or month, bring  new beginnings  and new 
     driving experiences. I know it is weird to even consider, but you  may 
     see a "mode of transportation" sacrifice its life so that you can move 
     on to something better.

     You  may  suddenly realize  you have  psychic, intuitive  or receptive 
     powers you never knew you had, or acknowledged. Reply on  those subtle 
     or not so subtle impressions to guide and mold your  life. The  occult 
     can also hold some interest for you as you delve into the mysteries of 
     the universe. Since the 9 is so spiritual,  you may  begin to  counsel 
     others or begin psychic readings, or use your psychic ability  to help 
     others in distress.

     Charities and humanitarian causes are excellent avenues of  expression 
     for  you  now. You  can become  somewhat impractical  in your  thought 
     patterns and over emotional at the drop of a hat. Because of your very 
     sensitive emotional state, you can be very easily hurt by the words or 
     explosive deeds of others, whether they  are your  friends, family  or 
     spouse. The mighty 9 will force some kind of changes in the  structure 
     of your relationships and new love relationships can  easily suffer  a 
     setback,  changing  the  way  you  look  at it,  for better  or worse, 
     probably both at the same time. Perhaps the key here is that  you were 
     giving too much of yourself to another and the pain and hurt  feelings 
     is forcing you to "step back" and become  more impersonal  with it  if 
     you are to "survive" or coexist within it.

     Take time to say good-bye to  old ways  and habits  and embrace  a new 
     cycle which begins next year. Neptune is the ruler of the number 9 and 
     Karmic tests may come to you during this year. Others prefer to  place 
     Mars or the Sun here as well. It is a time of tests. How well did  you 
     do during the year? What did you learn?   Was that  information valid? 
     The 9 is said to be the most humanitarian of all the numbers.

     For you  to work  in a  menial position  would have  you climbing  the 
     walls, or one where  the job  wasn't completed  the way  it should  be 
     done. This is another year where doing for others beyond  the call  of 
     duty is both beneficial and stressed. Avoid being  petty and  small in 
     reflection or actions with others. Fill your heart with love  and then 
     expand on that concept for the greatest reward and understanding.  You 
     can also make some changes in your career or take on a part time  job. 
     Neptune  rules  liquids, water,  gases, music  and chemicals.  Perhaps 
     bartending or  working in  a beverage  store of  some kind  will be  a 
     source of  additional income  for you.  On the  other hand,  you might 
     start drinking more water to keep you body in harmony and balance.

     You may take this time to get away from the hustle and bustle and take 
     a trip to the ocean, or the woods. It is a year filled with letting go 
     of all of your habits, conditions and people that have  no meaning  to 
     you.  Romance  with people  who are  very different  than yourself  is 
     likely  and  perhaps  associated  with  the  signs  Aries  or Scorpio. 
     Accident  potential  is  higher  than  normal  so be  careful of  your 
     driving, working with any sharp object or working around fire hazards. 
     Perhaps you will take a long  trip now.  Fevers are  a possibility  at 
     this time. Avoid rich and spicy foods which you will be drawn  to now, 
     as well as the use of alcohol and wine. Vulnerable  months for  health 
     and overwork are April, May, October and November.

     One danger of the 9 energy  is learning  that there  is nothing  wrong 
     with  selfless  giving  and  lack  of  ambitions  for  personal  gain. 
     Ambitions may be very high and the need for material compensation high 
     as well. In matters of love and friendship, stop looking for it and it 
     will find you! Social abilities and  opportunities increase.  Romantic 
     and passionate states are  heightened and  someone may  come along  to 
     remind you that you are never too old to have your heart jump started. 
     Creative  and  artistic abilities  become much  stronger, looking  for 
     expression. Learn to give, so that you can receive.

     While studying the Hindu scriptures, I found that while in  the number 
     9 personal year, you  can find  friendship with  people born  with the 
     numbers 1, 2 or 3 as a birth  number or  with people  in a  1, 2  or 3 
     personal year. You will not get along with people who have 5 or 4 as a 
     destiny number or in a 5 or 4 year. People who are in a 6 or 8 year or 
     have a 6 or 8 destiny number will be neither bad or  good, but  rather 
     neutral.

     Career Opportunities: traveler, research worker, clairvoyant, dentist, 
     butcher, philosopher, CIA agent, magician, fisherman, hospital worker, 
     manicurist, logger, explorer, electrician, metaphysician, drama, music 
     composition, art,  entertainment, writing,  architecture, speaking  on 
     inspirational  subjects   and  counseling,   the  ministry,   nursing, 
     physician,   veterinarian   services,   communications,    publishing, 
     broadcaster.
