A WOW Year!! 2016 and Numerology

Before I start this blog post, I must express my gratitude to so many people with whom I shared laughter, tears, wisdom and insight, and unconditional love and friendship this past year. I am moved even as I sit here at my keyboard and type this when I think of all the beautiful souls who entered my life in 2015. What an absolute blessing. Thank you.

2016 = 9. A Little Numerology for a GREAT Number

If you add all the numbers up in 2016, the sum equals 9. Nine happens to be one of my favorite numbers, for the record, due in part to the fact that I was born in September (9), but more importantly for the rest of the world, 9 is a number that brings great prosperity. The number nine is all about coming to the end of a cycle where all our periods of growth will finally come to fruition. This means that all the struggles (or growth opportunities) are now going to blossom and grow. Get ready! This year is about prepping ourselves for “completeness” (10). It is about filling ourselves up with who we are at our core and partaking in what we love to do most, particularly from a creative standpoint.

Suggestions you ask?- Volunteer doing something you are passionate about- Sign up to learn a new means of creative self-expression- Practice slowing down and looking within (the hermit)- Continue to nurture the seeds you’ve planted (follow-up and loyalty)- Continue to express gratitude regularly when you witness even the tiniest of blossoms bloom- Collaborate, don’t compete- Give back what you receive (you’ll always get it back two-fold)- Set intentions to release old wounds and manifest what you desire- Love like there is no tomorrow

Though these are all of great importance if applied regularly, they are particularly applicable this year, the year of the 9.

Why is it a “WOW” year? WOW = Welcoming Our inner-Wisdom.

I have to tell you that at the very moment the ball dropped last night, I felt inspired, full of hope, joy, almost a giddiness. That is how “the light” feels to me. What this means to me is that this year is going to be AMAZING, full of wisdom from within, our inner light shining without. Let’s face it, all years have their ups and downs, but sometimes we get a breather. Well, here it is! So with that, take a big, deep, cleansing breath in and fill yourself with love and prosperity. I set that intention for ALL, even those who are not reading this.
