What does a 9 Personal Year mean?
A 9 Personal Year is a time for letting go, completion and preparing for a new phase. It closes a nine-year cycle, and just around the corner is a new beginning as 9 gives way to 1. Those who let go and accept the closing of a chapter are better prepared for what's ahead. It's not a good year to start new relationships or businesses, because the energy is pushing toward resolutions and completions.
As you may have learned, we all have many personal vibrations that affect our lives, and numerology offers specific readings of this energy: past, present and future. You could be in a 3 Personal Year, or a 1 Personal Year. Each year's vibration carries a different, considerable influence for that year.
For instance, if you are in a 7 Personal Year, it would be a year for personal reflection. You will find yourself more introspective and less influenced by outside circumstances, or your circumstances will cause you to think and analyze more than usual. And since this vibration is so internal, those who want to be more dynamic, or in causation mode, may find themselves forced to be more introspective.

Why does a 9 year feel like an ending?
You have to change your focus in a 9 Personal Year. The good news is that a new beginning is just around the corner: a whole new phase of life, as 9 gives way to 1.
Isn't it interesting how we all anticipate the beginning of a new year? Perhaps we celebrate New Year's because the idea of a new beginning is so deeply embedded in our subconscious, and the energy at that time is so palpable, that it makes us want to celebrate. We celebrate the chance to advance and improve ourselves. We instinctively long for change, because the New Year marks an official new beginning for us all: the opportunity to benefit from the new energy, to make adjustments, and to grow by keeping pace with the energy flow of your life, which is mapped specifically for you and can be seen in your numerology blueprint.
But as we know, some of us resist. In those cases, the universe may exert a little force to bring about necessary change, which can make a year like this overly emotional and filled with feelings of loss.
How should you handle a 9 Personal Year?
9 is a time for letting go and preparing for the new phase. Those who hold on to old ideas, patterns or people could have a very frustrating and even emotionally challenging year. Those who let go and accept the closing of a chapter will be better prepared for what's ahead. This is especially true of relationships, because they can be very difficult to let go.
Should you start something new in a 9 year?
The 9 Personal Year warns against starting new relationships or businesses, because the energy is pushing toward resolutions and completions. It's a culmination. Things begun in a 9 year will most likely end before the cycle does.
Going with the flow, even if it's bumpy, will make it easier. Holding on holds us back. A 9 Personal Year can be fulfilling, if you are willing to cooperate with the universe's call to action: something better, improved and even more fulfilling is ahead, if you can just let go.
