As the calendar turns to 2026, a vibrant sense of freshness fills the air. This moment is recognized as the powerful 1-year of new beginnings, a universal cycle of bold action and pioneering spirit (2+0+2+6=10/1).

Following a year of deep reflection in the global 9-year of 2025 (2+0+2+5=9), much was present in a world filled with change as well as opposing views and desires. It is essential to realize that regardless of the external environment, the effect of the year is also reflected inward.

The 9-year provided vital energy and knowledge for transformation, challenging each person to identify and understand internal obstacles that held that person back. This period clarified what no longer serves authentic happiness. Now the individual is invited to step forward and plant the seeds for what is truly desired.

The Gentle Pause Before the Leap–The Zero

The 1-year is a profound beginning. The lesson is to be conscious of what is released. A quiet pause provides the empty canvas for the new cycle. Before decisive action, each person is called to the still point of zero—the silent creative void where new beginnings are conceived.

“The zero point is not an escape from reality; it is the ultimate act of reclaiming one’s creative power from the chaos.” –Greer Jonas

As the universal 1 energy emerges, the focus shifts from completion to courageous initiation, challenging the individual to claim direction and leadership. True leadership begins not with a bold public statement, but with the quiet courage to claim one’s own center.

Your Personal Year Cycle

Each person experiences the 2026 shift of new beginnings through a unique, personal year number based on birth month and day.
