Your personal year number in numerology gives you a snapshot of the upcoming or past calendar years. It is based on your date of birth and the year you want to know about. Each personal year is part of a one-through-nine-year cycle, beginning when you are born and repeating again after every ninth year. Here is how to find your personal year number for 2018. Follow the calculation example given below.
The first step is to reduce the month and day of your birth to a single number. So if your birthday is on March 3, add the number of the month (3) to the date (3). The single number is now 6 (3 + 3 = 6). NOTE: If your birthday number adds up to the Master numbers 11 or 22, reduce them to 2 and 4, respectively.
Then reduce the year that you want to know about to a single number. The year 2018 becomes the number 10 (2 + 0 + 1 + 8 = 11). Next, add the 2 numbers together (6 + 11 = 17), then reduce the number 17 to a single number?? (1 + 7 = 8). Based on this formula that person is entering a Personal Year 8.
Now that you know how to calculate your personal year number, it can give you deeper insights into your future, as well as give you insights into your past, which have impacted your life today.
