2021: The 5 Universal Year - "I Want To Break Free!"

The 5 is the halfway point between the 1 through 9 cycle. It acts as a hinge between the first and second acts of numerology's growing season, which can act as a time of "plot twists." Circumstances might become more unpredictable— will the crops thrive under these uncertain conditions, or will they wither? One crosses their fingers and wishes upon all the stars, in hopes for the luck of the elements to successfully carry its continued growth to full maturity.

We can also think of the 5 transit as the intermission between theater acts. Its energy is antsy and restless. The thrill-seeking 5 doesn't like sitting still unless the presentation is enthralling! If it doesn't get hooked on the show, it will be itching to stretch its legs, get a bathroom break, consume all the lobby concessions, chat with its friends, and scan the room looking for people they might know.

The 7 Universal Month in the 4 Universal Year: A Time for Reflection and Assessment

“It so happens that they have several themes in common. Both the 4 and 7 value attention to detail, often to the point of perfectionism. Both emphasize approaching problems and projects with a methodical and steady hand. And when the subject matter is just right, both the 4 and 7 demonstrate unswerving laser-precision focus. Both are seekers of truth and correct information, and they fare better when they have fixed, substantial theses upon which to stand. Give them a fount of data that speaks to their interests, and you'll find these two working late hours, pouring relentlessly over and continuously refining their findings.

Yet the two numbers part ways from there.”

READER SPOTLIGHT: Silver Raven, Tarot Card Reader, Reiki Healer

“How did you begin your journey into the metaphysical arts?”

“Honestly, I think I was into the metaphysical before I even realized it. At a young age, I was fascinated by my paternal grandmother’s old-world ways. She would drop a little olive oil in a bowl of water, the pattern she saw would tell her if someone had given one of us ‘the evil eye’. If we were ill, she would rub our temples and mutter in Italian softly with what I later came to realize were healing prayers. The soothing feeling of this is something I still remember to this day.”

The 5 Universal Month in the 4 Universal Year: Order Meets Disorder

When proper planning and provisions are in place, the 5 can become less chaotic and a lot more fun! You want to get all the hard work of the 4 well in hand so that you can maximize the thrill-seeking, lust-for-life vibe of the 5 to your best advantage. The 5 screams “Let’s play!” while the 4 calmly yet firmly says “After you do your chores.” Work hard upfront, and you can play hard on the back end- but always, ALWAYS while keeping the responsible 4 in mind. If you don’t, the 4 will push back and playtime will be over. The 4 will become the parent grounding the rebellious 5 teenager, taking away their video games and ordering them to clean their room, where these orders will be inevitably greeted with middle fingers a-blazing. Heels will be dug in, nothing will get done, and there will be more chaos for chaos’s sake. UGH. We don’t need any more of that!

The Intuition Diaries, Episode 1: “Please, Let's Not Drive Today”

Something was wrong. Very, very, VERY wrong. The feeling became almost overpowering. I still had no clue what this was. All I knew is I was emphatically against leaving B's campus. Every bone in my body wanted to stay exactly where we were until the next day.

After a couple more hours, I reduced myself to begging. By this point, I was frantic. I couldn't offer any solid reasons for my reactions. All I could do was plead shakingly: "Please. Can we not go? Not today? Can't we wait an extra day? Please. Let's not drive today. PLEASE."

The 3 Universal Month in the 4 Universal Year: A Time for Tantrums, or Creative Problem Solving?

Where the 3 can be youthful and spontaneous, the 4 can be somber and immovable. Where the 3 may be flighty and unpredictable, the 4 is often stable and dependable. The 3 excels in imaginative and collaborative approaches toward resolving difficulties, whereas the 4 tends to see things in more defined terms. The 3 belongs to the emotional plane of numbers, while the 4 resides on the physical plane. As you can see, these are two different breeds of cat.

This doesn't mean they can't get along; they definitely can! The flexibility of the 3 can help get the 4 out of its rut, and together they can accomplish some genuinely productive work, provided their goals are aligned. That being said, their approaches couldn't be more different. The youthful 3 is like a free-spirited adolescent, while the 4 resembles its instructor, kite-string holder, and stern taskmaster.

THE 11/2 UNIVERSAL MONTH IN THE 4 UNIVERSAL YEAR: A TIME FOR PATIENCE

“Because we are dealing with the Master Number 11/2, we will need to see whether or not July demands we rise up to meet bigger challenges, or if this might manifest more like it’s reduced cousin the 2, signaling a period of lull, waiting for things to happen. Will July be an electrifying time of rapid fire developments, or will it be a frustrating time of stagnation? It’s a little bit of a wild card.”

THE NUMEROLOGY OF ANTHONY BOURDAIN: A TRIBUTE, PART 2

“Even though he was exceptionally candid about his restless and sometimes troubled mind, his 4 Personality made most believe he had it pretty well under control. Yet he was truthful with us the entire time. He was very honest about how his thoughts often left him feeling disconcerted- a common byproduct from the combined influence of his deeply reflective 7 Birthpath and 7 Destiny number. It was his seemingly durable 4 Personality that made most of us dismiss or underestimate the true weight of his mental and emotional confessions. In the end those appearances were stripped away, and his double 7 nature fully revealed itself so there could be no more denial.

No one can say he deceived us or fell short of some impossible ideal he always rejected and never wanted to embody. If we didn’t hear what he was really saying, then it was us that deceived ourselves.”
