It is the start of a four year "high" that culminates on marking another special decade. 

This is incredible!

As solar systems are aligning in the Universe, our planets are aligning with our sun, so too are her life years and numbers lining up - 1, 2, 3, 11.

The microcosm within, the macrocosm outside. The internal manifests externally. 

The cosmos aligns into being. Aligning one with the best of all infinite possibilities. A true gift! 

In Numerology, each of the nine single-digit numbers has a personality - a range of qualities and traits that makes it unique and recognizable. 

Each number is a character, like a human being. 

In order to understand how numbers affect us based on their location in the chart, it helps to get to know each single digit number as if it were a person. 

Among the nine single-digit numbers, the 1 takes a special place. 

From a spiritual perspective, it is the number of creation, the primal force from which all other numbers spring forth. 

It is said that when you truly understand the place and function of this most primal of all numbers, you will know all there is to know and enlightenment is yours. 

This is a Universal Truth of course applicable not just to the number 1 from a Numerologist's perspective but to many other facets, aspects, and dimensions in Life. 

It is a good place to start, as the personality of the number 1 aligns nicely with its more elevated spiritual symbolism. 

Coupled with the 9 World Number for 2016, this is a year to take a look at your relationships, your job, and all the things taking place in your life. Make a pros-and-cons list of what's bothering you, and decide to move on. 

Keep on tracking and happy trails!
