Have you ever done all the work you can just to see very little results? Or maybe you feel like you’re fighting against the current of life, itself?
If so, have you ever considered finding out your spiritual year?
A spiritual year (often called a personal year) is the idea that your life works in seasons. Instead of 4 seasons, we have a 9 year cycle.
To find your spiritual year, you add your birth month+ birth day+ current year
Example: 11/26/2026 = 1+1+2+6+2+0+2+6=20 = 2+0=2
The spiritual year for this date of birth and current year is in cycle #2.
Here’s the meanings of the cycles as follows:
-
Year 1: New Beginnings
A time for planting seeds, starting new projects, and establishing your independence.
-
Year 2: Partnership & Patience
A time for cooperation, strengthening relationships, and slow, steady progress.
-
Year 3: Expression & Creativity
A time for social interaction, communication, and enjoying the fruits of your early labor.
-
Year 4: Structure & Stability
A time for hard work, organization, and building a solid foundation for the future.
-
Year 5: Change & Freedom
A time for unpredictability, adventure, and stepping out of your comfort zone.
-
Year 6: Responsibility & Home
A time for focusing on family, nurturing relationships, and balancing domestic duties.
-
Year 7: Reflection & Analysis
A time for deep introspection, spiritual study, and slowing down to assess your path.
-
Year 8: Power & Manifestation
A time for ambition, financial progress, and achieving tangible results or rewards.
-
Year 9: Completion & Release
A time for finishing old cycles, letting go of what no longer serves you, and clearing space for the next Year 1.
Finding out your spiritual year can help you figure out what life season youre in , which also helps you learn how to work with the current instead of fighting against it.
You can even add tarot into the mix if you choose to do so!
Example: 11/26/2026 (1+1+2+6+2+0+2+6=20) 20 is the judgement card of the major arcana. The judgement card represents transformation, renewal, & awakening.
Note: The spiritual year cycles only go as high as #9 . In tarot, the number can go all the way to 22. You only keep reducing to a single digit number for your spiritual year, and for your tarot spiritual year card, you can only go as high as 22. In my first example, you see I reduced the sums until I got a single digit number 2. For tarot, I didn’t reduce which gave me 20. I’m not sure If I’m making sense here but im trying )
What’s your spiritual year?

sign. I have had dragonflies inside my home a few times. I had asked my Ancestors for a sign that my new puppy would be accepted by my other dogs and all will be well, I got my answer all dogs are curled up together.
