2006 IS AN 8 UNIVERSAL year. That means that it will be an intense time period in which the earth, countries, and individuals must strive for balance. Efforts to that effect made in the past now reap results that can be auspicious and bring about powerful advancement. However, when things have been avoided, it is a time of reckoning and payment is now due.

Look at the physical shape of the #8. It tells exactly how we must handle this energy. The loops of inner/outer, material/spiritual must come into balance and harmony. We are not either/or; we are the two interdependent loops that require equal flow between both sides or the imbalance will cause conflict. We are either running in circles demonstrated by each loop in the #8 when kept separate, or we are circulating energy equally as we trace the 8 as one continuous flowing line that completes itself.

If you turn #8 on its side, you have the sign of infinity... the potential is that - as we monitor our emotional reaction to events and find an inner place of peace that is untouched by what appears to be on the surface - the loops become smaller and smaller until they appear to be absorbed in a oneness that is likened to the power of atomic energy.

This is a momentous time with powerful implications. So, regardless of what our personal year number is, we must take the universal implication seriously and do our best to find balance and harmony within our own lives and project that into the world at large.

To find out how 2006 influences your life, add the month and day of your birth to the number 8 and then add the numbers together until you have one digit between 1 and 9 remaining. Examples: Birthday: November 7. We add 11 (mo) + 7 (day) + 8 (___ year) = 26. 2+6= 8. This person’s year is the same as the universal year for 2006. Another example: Feb. 1. We add 2 + 1 + 8 = 11. 1+1= 2. This person’s number for 2006 is 2.

Each month you may check your personal number
in the Numbers By Design column below for insights
and suggestions to assist you in making the
most of the possibilities presented in your life.

 

 


  J u n e  2 0 0 6



1

Consider action/reaction and how what you do creates a ripple in the fabric of life, be it for good or as an obstruction. It is time to ask more important questions of yourself. Why are you here? What is the purpose of your life? Overcome any tendency to gloss over those points that might bring illumination or set your path on a course that will bring greater meaning and ultimate satisfaction. Take time for quiet. Find the beauty of stillness, and appreciate nature's gifts. This month makes a valuable statement: "The only way out is in."

2

Assess how well you have organized and managed what is in front of you. You are a system of energy, and internal balance is important so that the outer world can reflect a harmonious interaction within yourself. As you check in to see where conflict resides, bring yourself to an imaginary round table and allow each aspect to speak without being judged. Then engage all of yourself in a plan of updating reactions that are more appropriate to who and what you are now - not who you were in the past. Psyche is willing to assist when appreciated, so acknowledge with thanks what it has done for you in the past, and ask for its support in directing the future with an updated vision.

3

Graduation, completion, release, letting go - climbing to the top of a metaphorical mountain to see and clarify a bigger view. It's time to reach higher ground and to give thanks for everything in your life as it has been presented. Gratitude makes way for more good to enter. Feelings of loss or not having only keep you locked in a limited state. Regardless of appearances, life is unfolding exactly as it needs to do, bringing you to a broader perspective and allowing you to become more fully present to higher consciousness. Give without expectation, and you may be pleasantly surprised at what you receive in return!

4
It's time to be bold. Move the boulders on your path, overcome any tendency to shrink back in the face of challenges. Draw upon inner resources of strength and character and forge ahead. You can make new connections, open doors to opportunities, and slay a few dragons along the way. Bring your voice forward and be willing to accept leadership positions or take a stand that defines who you are and what you believe in. In a year of structuring or renewing, this month offers the events that call upon you to show what you are made of and to step forward to claim your rightful place in life.
5
Revolutionary information or insights may occur this month. You can channel your over-abundant energy into invention and design or expand your communication skills. The influence is electric and ultra sensitive, so nervous energy may be heightened. Be careful not to be touchy, and think before you say something to someone else that you may later regret. Also - weed out negative thinking, foods, and people that are depleting of your energy. Choose quality in all things: positive thoughts, nourishing meals, and mutually supportive relationships. Prayer and quiet time are restorative, so take time for yourself, and entertain uplifting thoughts in the process.
6
Creative ventures, children, self-expression, and emotions are all highlighted in June. Find opportunities to share your gifts - whatever they are - and allow yourself to bask in the glow of universal approval. It doesn't always come, but this month you have an aspect of "good" fortune, so use it! Remember that good fortune isn't always what we think it will be - so look for the silver lining in everything that transpires now. You may be faced with issues from childhood or with family circumstances that call upon you to respond. Find outlets for play, laughter, and positive release of emotions. It can be a creative, lucrative, and fun-loving month if you move beyond the absurdities of life and enjoy what is. 
7
Major or minor opportunities for transformation are present. You can move beyond a barrier that has held you in a locked position for years, or you can engage in a milestone such as marriage, divorce, giving birth, or dealing with aspects of death. Willingness to do things differently, to see reality from a renewed perspective, and to believe in yourself all lead to new outcomes. Rebuilding in some form is called for this month, whether it is an actual building, your work, or the structure of your beliefs. Let your defenses down in the face of criticism and look at what is being shown to you through events. Assess who you want to be and what you want from life. Then take steps to achieve those goals.
8
Unexpected events that call for flexibility and willingness to adapt to circumstances, travel, communications, exploring new territory, people from a distance, and contacts that open new doors - all activity leading to change are part of this month. As you direct your energy into meaningful pursuits, you can feel empowered by accomplishment. As you are drawn in by multiple activities or overloads of information, you may become critical of others and restless, so find moderation in everything you do. Extremism is to be avoided. At all times, seek to come to center, and amidst everything, remember to breathe!
9
Family, service, health, responsibility - time to look at what you expect and the expectations placed on you by others. What is appropriate, adequate, or completely out of line? Let people know what your guidelines are, and define boundaries in a loving way. It may no longer be wise to continue a particular way of relating or doing things, and if so, suggest that people who have come to wait for you to take the lead find other individuals to handle the tasks required. Loving liberation is the key to this month. Avoid resentment, obligations you don't want, and martyrdom. When you project compassion and love, the world is your oyster. Otherwise - you may be snarling and singing the blues!

  WHAT ARE YOUR GIFTS IN THE YEAR 2006?

1
This year requires you to be self-reliant and decisive as to how you want to move forward. What have you learned from the past, and what needs to be released in order for you to move ahead? 2006 signals a new nine year cycle in your life, and the less baggage you have from the past, the more room there is for enriching opportunities that propel you into leadership or entrepreneurial positions, or into situations where you need to stand up and let your opinion be known. Pay attention to new ideas, strike ahead in directions that involve adventure and willingness to risk - but as you do, listen to the still, small voice within that seeks to direct you on a path that recognizes the importance of leading with wisdom, not out of impulsiveness or brute force. Give others the dignity of their input, even though you must make the final decision in the end. When you move forward, make sure it is an ethical manner and that you are remembering to follow the Golden Rule that you do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
2
You have planted seeds and now there is a powerful force that requires patience and perhaps even a waiting game as this is a time of germination in one sense. Incubation, discernment, pregnancy - everything connected to your sense of timing. Who supports you and who depletes you? Where are your choices enhancing your life and where do you sabotage yourself? 2006 offers you opportunities to sort things out and to bring the lens of inquiry into stronger focus - looking at the details of your life and the way you go about it. Excellence is the requirement - don't try to gloss over steps, and remember that kindness to others is not weakness, it is the mark of someone who has a large spirit and big heart. However, kindness does not mean being a doormat. It's important to weed through what stifles. Open to higher realms of insight and you can have brilliant flashes of inspiration. You can also feel a major disconnect with yourself or others from time to time - so keep the inner light burning bright. That way if the outer lights are dim, your inner glow will see you through to triumph!
3
Patience was required last year, but now it's time to reach out and deliver your perspective, your art work, your music, the ability to inspire, your laughter, your sales pitch, your childlike sense of wonder - all things expressive and creative. If there are emotional issues that arise, don't let yourself be overwhelmed by other people's stuff. Life wants you to be a star this year, and it's not about abandoning those you love, it's about recognizing who is encouraging and who is critical, and leaving the critical ones alone for a while. You can always walk back into the lion's den later! Beautify your life, your thoughts, your work, and yourself. It's a wonderful opportunity to attract some very lovely things into your life - and also a bit of magic. Take the best of what is offered and make something imaginative of the rest!
4
Imagination and creative ideas may have flourished last year. Now it's time to make something tangible and real of them. This year is about building foundations for the future and undoing foundations that are wobbly or don't work. So there is an element of rebirth to the year, and your level of willingness to risk to the unknown will determine just how far you will fly. It isn't about tearing things down capriciously or rebuilding without purpose, it is about recognizing where the boxes you find yourself in are too small and limit your movement forward. You can achieve a larger reality by moving beyond your fears and self-imposed barriers. Believe in yourself and associate with those who encourage your growth. Many things are possible, and slow and steady is the best path to achievement at this time. Rites of passage are also part of this time period, so you may experience births, deaths, marriage or divorce during the year. Everything is pushing you to recognize that life is growth and movement. Standing still is not an option.
5
Last year required slow growth and establishing a stronger foundation. Now it's time to open your arms to experiencing shifts and changes that can be invigorating and propel you into larger arenas or spurts of activity. There is an unsettled quality to this time period. The more adventurous you are, the more pleasant it will be. If you like things to remain static and safe, then the year may push you out of your comfort zone through events that require adaptability. It's a grand opportunity to expand your horizons, meet new people, travel, explore ideas and information, and feel like an adolescent - regardless of your age. On the other hand, you are advised to read fine print on all contract agreements, make sure you think large purchases through before buying, and be discerning when others try to sell you something. There may be less than honorable intentions on the part of someone, so make sure you aren't a pawn in their game by being clear about your own motivation for what you do. That said, rev up your engine and get ready to go. Enjoy the journey!
6
Whereas last year had a hyperactive undertone, this year pushes you to be more concerned about your image and how other people perceive you. Values, family, health, responsibility, standing in the community - all are part of this year's focus. As you give of yourself with a loving heart, you receive a great deal in return. When you feel resentment at having to do things that are seemingly endless duties or obligations, your actions will be met in kind. So... the key to 2006 is to find your way to loving action. If something feels overwhelming or there are those who take advantage of you, it's time to find replacements for yourself. Let it be known what you are willing (and un-) to do, and do it from a place of respect for yourself and others, not defensiveness. Be honest with yourself so that martyrdom does not enter. As you do those things that bring more light into your life, health improves, relationships prosper, and you reap rewards that can be enhancing and unanticipated.
7
Prepare to take time for yourself. The cares of others may have encroached last year, but now it's time for you to retreat a bit and ask important questions like, "Who am I," "Why am I here," and "What's the purpose of my life?" It is a wonderful year for diving more deeply into spiritual pursuits and specialized areas of interest where research or time alone is involved. It's also a year in which you may deal with situations or relationships from the past that were unresolved and offer opportunity for completion or a new start. Events that have nothing to do with the present can arise such as bizarre situations, health concerns, sudden windfalls, or a relationship that feels fated. This is a year of karmic payback either to you or from you, and so it is very beneficial to look for the meaning and purpose behind all happenings. This can be a deeply rewarding time if you are willing to go within yourself to find the treasures that are hidden there. The more you want to run in the world and avoid knowing yourself, the more difficult the journey. Go within and embrace who is waiting for you. It is nothing short of a soul reunion!
8
Last year required taking time to yourself and retreating a bit. Now the opportunity for more dynamic interchange and effectiveness in the world is possible. Powerful people can come to your assistance, and you have the ability to exude a powerful influence on others as well. Your dynamic qualities push you toward a goal or purpose, and after the restrictions you may have felt last year, suddenly the river is flowing again full force. Instead of fighting against the current, reach out and flow with it, encompassing everything you touch along the way. The tendency to overdo is mitigated when you recognize the importance for balance and harmony. Music, hydrotherapy, massage, and relaxation techniques can all help to bring you back to equilibrium. However, there is much to accomplish, and working within a system is helpful. Direct the projects, but let others do their part without trying to micro-manage. Call on celestial influences for help, and you'll be surprised by the quality of what you attract. Life is a movable feast, so reach out and participate!
9
It's the end of a cycle that began nine years ago. Therefore, it's time to take a look at what you've been through, what has been valuable, what needs to be released, and what attitudes no longer serve you. The focus of the year is on completion, so there may be relationships or situations that come to a natural conclusion at this time. Whatever occurs, the focus needs to be on the bigger picture. As you look to the meaning behind events and seek the higher ground whenever issues arise, you are able to bring a larger perspective to others that inspires and uplifts. If you fall into traps of self-pity or discouragement, the only redeemer is a connection to Source - so practice gratitude on a daily basis, even if you can only be grateful for the air you breathe. As you demonstrate gratitude for all that is, more good comes. When you feel resentful that things aren't the way you want them, everything stops. In the 9th year, we must focus on a larger plan unfolding - recognizing the perfection in all that is, even if it doesn't make sense. When you are able to hold gratitude as the center to everything, this can be one of the spectacular years of your life!
