2007 numerically

UNIVERSALLY, 2007 IS a #9 year, representing completion of a

major cycle. #9 requires that each conscious being move beyond the

limitation of self into the higher octave of our unique potential. It calls

us to reach up to the angels of our higher nature, and to look to our

Creator as the guiding light and source of all sustenance from which we draw

our strength and have our being. In all things, no matter what we name it,

we are to put God first.

When we give thanksgiving for what is, rather than grousing

about what isn't, when we move to higher ground on every issue, when we look

for the larger purpose in events and do our part to bring about the

reconciliation of humanity to its greater glory, then we shall see shifts

and changes that may be called miraculous. The #9 requires a high calling of

service, and that which is self-serving and petty goes through the

disillusionment process that unmasks its roots in illusion.

The great universal opportunity under this influence is

compassion, re-unification, gratitude, and forgiveness.

To find out how 2007 influences your life, add the month and day

of your birth to the number 9 and then add the numbers together until you

have one digit between 1 and 9 remaining.

Examples:

a.. Birthday: November 7.

b.. We add: 11 (month) + 7 (day) + 9 (current year) = 27.

c.. 2 + 7 = 9.

d.. This person's year is the same as the universal year for

2007.

a.. Birthday: February 1.

b.. We add: 2 + 1 + 9 = 12.

c.. 1 + 2 = 3.

d.. This person's number for 2007 is 3.

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.

1 Pause this month to reconsider your course of action as well

as decisions you have made. Are your plans in alignment with higher

principles, or has willfulness prevailed? Be willing to take a dispassionate

view of your life and allow the still, small voice within to speak without

ego getting defensive. This is a wonderful time for retreat and for being in

nature or engaging in specialized study. Much good emerges when you deepen

your spiritual connection, so give yourself this precious gift of You to

you!

2 Focus on managing your time so that you gain maximum momentum.

Organize your work and take care of things that require attention, because

there may be opportunities that call for being prepared. You can receive

recognition for past efforts, a promotion, or on the other hand be called

upon to manage another's finances or handle estate issues. The key to June

is to recognize where you flow with life's requirements, and where you avoid

or resist them. Perfection is not required, but being conscious, handling

yourself with maturity, and good stewardship is.

3 Emotions may be ignited as this month brings a necessity to

review your relationships, attitudes, and anything that you have outgrown.

You can release a burden or graduate from one level of life experience to

another. The key to success this month is to take every issue as an

opportunity for greater understanding, and to find your way to gratitude so

that you look for the good in all... appreciating the rose instead of

dwelling on the thorns. Act with compassion and see the bigger view. As you

do, life will provide moments that make everything worthwhile.

4 Take opportunities that come your way to make new connections

and to bring your voice forward. This is a month for planting. What you

focus on will grow, so make sure you are imagining the good that you want,

and overcome tendencies to dwell on what is not working. Be open to

possibilities, knowing that as you extend your reach, something will shift.

It may not be fully apparent this month, but this is the time to plant the

good seeds for your future. Venture forth with optimism as doors open based

on your efforts!

5 In this year of change, June may be a pivotal point regarding

choices. There may be sudden shifts of information that set you on a

different course of action. The requirement to be more discerning relates to

relationships, boundaries, and the quality of all interactions. Choose

people, food, and thinking patterns that nourish and uplift you, and let go

of everything that drags you down. During this time you can gain flashes of

insight that need to be captured before you forget them, and be sure to pay

attention to your intuition as there may be some great clues regarding

upcoming possibilities!

6 Laughter, playfulness, and joy are part of a child's stock in

hand. Regardless of your age, it's time to retrieve these gifts and bring

the inner child to the fore. Choose a merry band of friends, find things

that bring you together in a positive manner, and express yourself

creatively whenever possible. There may be emotional issues related to

children or to you as the child. Focus on letting people be who they are and

give yourself that same permission. Whenever possible, choose to celebrate

life. Leave the cranky, critical characters alone for this month and choose

the encouraging ones who let you be a star!

7 Illusions may be popped as you confront something that is not

what you thought it was, or as you are faced with a need to stretch beyond

your comfort zone. The opportunity this month is to overcome limitations

through willingness to look clearly and dispassionately at issues

confronting you. Remember, the same old same old leads to more of the same.

Risk is involved in growth and renewal, but you need an infusion of life

giving substance to expand horizons and build something of lasting value.

Breaking out of complacency requires effort and stamina. You have it... so

spread your wings and be amazed at the view you will gain from a new

perspective!

8 Movement and activity abound, albeit mental or physical.

People, ideas, information - all expanding your horizons. So many

possibilities require discernment and discretion - not easy under this

restless and dynamic influence. Focus your energy on several coordinated

projects where you can leverage effort for a more powerful outcome, and

avoid the temptation to flit from one thing to another without a goal or

plan. By month's end you will either feel elated at how much you have

achieved, or frustrated at lack of results because you dabbled in too many

different things.

9 Family, health, and service now take center stage in this year

of completion. Check your motives in all acts of giving. Make sure you are

extending yourself with a loving, compassionate heart rather than being

resentful for "having to do" something. Life has a great deal to offer you

and responds to loving vibes. As you become clear about what is appropriate

for you and what is not, you can alter situations with dignity, even when

you need to let something or someone go. It isn't about either/or, it is

about what works best for all concerned so that there are no martyrs and no

victims. Attitudes hold the key to good health, so feed only that which is

beneficial and uplifting!

WHAT ARE YOUR GIFTS IN THE YEAR 2007?

1 The opportunities are for a renewed sense of individuality and

the need to step out of the familiar way of going about life. Leadership,

courage, stamina, and all the things that define the sculpting process of

the diamond are underway. This is a seed planting year as you attempt

things. Not all will come to fruition, but the effort is important.

Grappling with purely selfish wants and transmuting them into a larger

vision or purpose that enhances the lives of all concerned brings about the

noble qualities that define a great leader. Calling on unique capabilities

and a fresh vantage point are part of the requirement this year. Align your

will with higher guidance, and your endeavors will be something you can be

proud of by year's end.

2 This year calls upon you to overcome all that keeps you from

soul expression. Choices are very important. Choose that which uplifts,

nourishes, honors, and benefits you and life. Release all mental constructs

that pull you down. Avoid food and stimulants that add no benefit to the

wellbeing of your body. Choose only partnerships that are mutually

respectful, and know that you have Divine partnership with inner guidance

that is always available as you reach within for assistance. An inner light

illumines your path, and can become a light to others when you attune to

your gifts and share them with the world. The time is now. The requirement

is discernment, and your contribution can bring needed insights to a world

in the dark.

3 You are a child of the universe. Your sense of wonder and

self-expression are important, and throughout this year you will have

opportunities to expand your gifts and to bring your voice forward in

creative venues that appreciate what you have to offer. While a stage is set

and waiting for you, there may also be emotional pulls that cause you to

sacrifice the opportunities because of someone else's issues. Life asks you

to be more detached. In looking at the universal year, #9, remember that

everyone is being asked to release attachment to limitation, especially in

relation to the number of the year in which you find yourself. Who and what

contributes to joy in your life? Who or what is critical and restrictive to

your higher calling? You can love others and have compassion for them

without being devoured by their inadequacy. What is your bigger calling in

life, and where are you answering it, or deferring because someone else is

blocking the way?

4 Look at every area in life that is built on a foundation.

Where are your building blocks strong, and where are they wobbly? Where do

you have a healthy sense of self-esteem, and where are you on shaky ground?

Do you believe in yourself and your abilities - in your capacity to take on

something that may seem beyond your present capacity, and your willingness

to risk to the unknown? Throughout the year, you have opportunities to build

or re-build. You can construct a strong and safe environment, or you can be

caught in a fear-based trap that causes feelings of imprisonment. Gather the

materials for establishing yourself in a practical manner. Push beyond the

perceptual boundaries that limit you, and you may find yourself transforming

from the caterpillar into the butterfly. It's your choice, and challenge.

Risk to the call of your higher possibilities, and fly beyond all roadblocks

from the past.

5 Throughout 2007, be ready and willing to adapt to new

criteria, shifting roles, expanding horizons, and change. Flexibility is

required, as well as good management of your time and energy. You may react

to restriction like a hormone driven teenager, so it is important to allow

your higher guidance to act as the steadying influence when you are ready to

react without thinking. Pause. Consider. Assess. Be discerning. Then take

action. Many things can be accomplished when you direct the focus of your

exuberance. Too much information can put you on systems overload, however,

and then you may become hyper critical of others or yourself. This can be a

very revitalizing year in your life, with openings to greater good. It will

require that you be aware of how much time you actually have to spend, and

how much money. Reach for your dreams. Strategize your moves, and act with

boldness. This is your life. so enjoy!

6. 2007 focuses on all things related to family, health, and

service. You have opportunity after opportunity to view your reaction to

what is asked of you. Do you give with a loving heart, or through a sense of

obligation and duty? Are you resentful for what is placed on your shoulders,

or is it a joy to give to others and see their reaction? Do you feel abused

and put upon, or loved and cared for? These are things to assess.

Expectations can create barriers to loving communication, so if you expect

too much of others, or feel their expectations of you as a burden, create

workable boundaries that define what you will and will not do before it

becomes a martyrdom issue. Loving relationships can become more meaningful

now, or go through crisis. Healing comes through practicing love and

forgiveness - not just towards others, but towards yourself as well.

7. This is an important year for you. Look at your assumptions

about life and about yourself, and be willing to really examine what is true

for you and what has been assumed based on what you were told you are, or

how to think. You have a grace given opportunity to dissolve all elements

that defeat the real you. By strengthening your link in spirit to the

Divine, you may come to know yourself in a way you have not previously

realized was possible. Special areas of interest, deep insights into life or

relationships, willingness to let what doesn't work drop away - all are

avenues to a fuller expression of your gifts and abilities. This is your

time to do the spiritual work that will make your life a symphony. Follow

the sound of your higher calling, and you will always be thankful you did.

8. This is a powerful year of contrasts. You are able to see the

light and shadow, to experience the ups and downs, and feel the effect of

past actions that lead to harmony, harvest and blessing, or make you feel

you are called upon to pay the bills that are now past due. There is no

judgment in this - but there is a requirement to take care of each thing

presented as it comes up for action. The year calls for maturity, good

management, and organization. It shows you where you have paid too much

attention to one area of life at the expense of others that now need to be

cared for. It provides powerful assistance and responses from others based

on your efforts, so do your very best this year. There is responsibility,

but there is also help. Open your arms to dance with life, and find the

balance that makes your journey a poised performance.

9. You are completing a nine-year cycle of life. Therefore, there

is much to review. What is important to carry with you into the future, and

what needs to be released? What have you accomplished in this past nine

years? What has blocked you, and where have you overcome limitations? Are

there relationships that need healing or releasing? Are there attitudes that

no longer serve you? As you can look upon everything presented with a sense

of gratitude and appreciation for the gift embedded in it, you open yourself

to receive the grace and provisions of Divine guidance. When you forget to

be grateful, and fall into the trap of pettiness and small thinking, you

feel the isolation of tumbling from a mountaintop of clear vistas that

includes all life. Alienation can only be overcome through opening the

heart, inviting Spirit to be the Source of supply, and moving into

compassion, forgiveness, and love. It may sound difficult, but once you open

that channel of receptivity, all things are possible!
