How 2025 Affects You!

UNIVERSAL YEAR NUMEROLOGY FORECAST 2025

by Carol Adrienne

“Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.--Rainer Maria Rilke

2025— A Year of Awakening

The Universal vibration for 2025 (2+0+2+5) is 9. A major theme of Nine is healing for humanity and the planet. Nine encourages a changing of the guard. Ideally, this natural process of ending and completion weeds out unhealthy beliefs and dysfunctional systems. Nine brings issues to a head, initiating a clearing process—much like a fever that comes before the breakthrough. Things may even deteriorate wildly before eventual rebirth. With that in mind, Nine reminds us that Anything is Possible. Nine reminds us that we all live on this planet together.

NINE THE AMPLIFIER. Since Nine contains all the other numerical vibrations from One to Eight, it is considered the “Universal number.” If you add Nine to any other digit, the resulting one digit number will always be the same root (i.e. 9 + 8 = 17 = 8). The cosmic role of Nine is to awaken, enlarge, amplify, and expand. Look for problems to escalate before they resolve. When thing go well, they go very, very well. Therefore 2025's Universal Nine gives a boost to all of our individual Personal Year plans and efforts (see your Personal Year predictions below). Nine encourages all of us to think bigger, look at the big picture, join in with others to accomplish mighty deeds.

NINE TAKES AWAY. Another vital role that Nine plays is to terminate, close, finish. As a terminating force, Nine often creates a volatile climate for needed change to occur. For example, if a relationship or business is rocky, 2025 will somehow provide an exit, a way out, or a better idea.

NINE GIVES BACK. As one form of cosmic synchronicity, Nine always brings unexpected gifts and light, even when the sky looks dark. How many times have you looked back to see that what seemed a loss turned out to be a gain down the road? Look for this to occur in 2025.

NINE PROVIDES. Nine always brings something (often better) to fill the void of an ending. Nine helps us be hopeful and optimistic, even if our heart has been broken.

NINE IS THE NUMBER OF WISDOM. Nine brings to light issues that humanity must face if we are to continue to live on the Earth. Nine inspires us to use imagination and logic to address that which is ready to end, no longer needed, not right. Despite the seeming chaos or uncertainty in the world, you may sense something new is emerging, struggling to be born—something that is more in line with the times.

END OF A NINE-YEAR BELIEF CYCLE. In 2025 we are coming to the end of a cycle that started in 2017. After the unprecedented restrictions made on our personal and collective lives in the past few years, many people are truly beginning to question everything—especially institutions and governmental authoritarianism. Many are becoming aware of “big-picture Nine issues,” such as big tech's ability to collect personal data, the surveillance of citizens by the deep state; the harm of big Pharma on personal medical practices, and the continuing dominance of transnational corporations. We now even question whether an image or a message is generated by a real person or artificial intelligence.

NINE IS A TIME OF REVIEWING WHAT WE THOUGHT WE KNEW. This year is a time to unhook from narratives that are not in our best interest.

KEY THEMES TO LOOK FOR IN 2025

Love and Compassion vs Hate and Vitriol

Acts of Humanitarianism

Dramatic Global Events, Massive Change to Systems

Coalescing Collective Energy, Group Demonstration

Increased Calls for Unity and Peace

Massive Global Events, Earth Movement, Migration

Forgiveness, Spiritual Awareness, End of an Era

While the total of Nine is the dominant influence in 2025, nuanced qualities also come from the individual digits of 2025:

2 – a millennium striving for peace, respectful co-existence, and planetary balance

0 – an unlimited ability to reach new levels of awareness, understanding, spiritual understanding

2 – a need for diplomacy, cooperation, and understanding rather than force

5 – disruptions, protests against censorship and individual freedoms

9 --Recognizing where change is needed to end the global “endless war” machine, end the control of corrupt institutions, break the hold of corporate media narratives, and work for the good of all humanity in each case

HOW DOES 2025/9 AFFECT YOUR OWN PERSONAL YEAR NUMBER?

First calculate your Personal Year for 2025.

Find your Personal Year number by adding your month and day of birth to 2025.
Reduce the total to one digit. This one-digit total is your Personal Year Number.
For example, let's say you were born on October 16. October is the 10^th month, so you would add:
1+ 0 + 1 + 6 + 2 + 0 + 2 + 5 = 17 (1 + 7) = 8 Personal Year

(Personal Year Cycles are Nine Years long and start over after Year 9. Your Personal Year starts January 1 and ends December 31, no matter what month you were born.)

Personal Year 1 in 2025:

Difficult Beginnings with New Horizons. Yes, you are starting a brand-new nine-year cycle. However, with a 9 Universal Year, things may keep falling apart for awhile. No worries. Begin to explore interests. Opportunity and new friends come from following your curiosity. After your 9 Year in 2024, some obstacles are gone or leaving. You secretly believe that anything is possible. With the support of lucky Universal Year 9, you are given what you need right now. You may have odd moments of synchronicity that help you meet the right people. Each small step, whether or not you achieve results at first, encourages you to feel “I can do this!” With Universal 9 Year at your back, your unique talents find a home. You have strong potential for wage increase, a promotion, a spot in a new venture, or changing your job or career. Lucky Universal 9 may even link you up with someone wealthy or from a different culture. You are determined to tackle your dreams and will find ways to start the ball rolling for better conditions.

Purpose for a 1 Personal Year in a 9 Universal Year is to Plant Seeds for New Growth. This is the year to advance through study, exploration, and challenging yourself in new ways. Stop negative self-talk. Appreciate and build on your strengths, rather than selling yourself short. Start a new project. Upgrade your home. Travel.

Relationships: If a relationship is bad and it's time to leave, you may be able to do that. If not, you strive to change what you can. While you dream of the perfect lover, you also, ironically, like your free time and independence. If single, you may meet someone from another country. Delay marriage until later this year or 2026.

Career: Potential for leadership or rewards. Learn by doing. Trial and error. Doing the impossible. Increase in pay. Conflicts with family time.

Personal Challenges: Possible loss of old friend or family member. Procrastination. Overcoming a bad habit. Becoming more independent to pursue your dreams.

Personal Year 2 in 2025:

Focus on Relationships and Balance. You seem to be thinking often about others—in terms of obligations, commitments, social status. Care-giving may be required. With Universal 9 tending to force an issue towards closure, a breakup may be in the cards. Your 2 Year tends to increase sensitivity to what people say—so try not to take things too personally. Nagging conflicts in friendships, family, or job are not unusual, and help you learn something important about yourself. This is a year to be caring and thoughtful, but not subservient. On the other hand, if more interested in finding companionship this year, do things that you love and don't put pressure on yourself, or try to please your parents. This 2 Year encourages friendships that nourish your soul, not just to fill time. With emotionally dramatic Universal 9, you may go through more than your share of ups and downs this year. Health issues show where you need to lessen stress and create a more balanced lifestyle. Artistic activities are a joy.

Purpose for a 2 Personal Year in a Universal 9 is to Find Love, Joy, and Peace. Everyday acts of kindness uplift and create connection. Listen and learn. Join, serve, share. Bringing more beauty and nature into your life—even in small ways—gives you energy and happiness.

Relationships: Affairs? Breakups? Romantic illusions? All options are open with dramatic Universal 9. Power struggles teach you to set healthy boundaries. Social media could bring up jealousy, FOMO, regrets, or someone who is not who they say they are. Serious decisions regarding parents, marriage, living with in-laws, childbirth, or divorce.

Career: You tend to put off big decisions this year. You are reluctant to confront a higher up. However, Universal 9 may bring an unexpected change or even re-location. May work in home-care, retail fashion, fast food, business administration, hospitality, financial analysis, humanitarian efforts.

Personal Challenges: Loneliness. Anxiety. Self-doubt when comparing to others. Ending a toxic relationship. Trying to please a spouse or hard-headed boss.

Personal Year 3 in 2025:

Creative Joy. You don't have to be an artist or musician to express your passions this year. Everyday life gives you so many chances to be creative. Boosted by cosmically lucky Universal 9, you not only are likely to feel increased vitality and optimism—you may be in a starring role! Even if life doesn't look all that different from last year, expect yourself to be very busy and generally quite happy. Your enthusiasm and positive attitude attracts friends and interesting situations. Universal 9 brings all kinds of upgrades, and increased activities. If over-scheduled or just plain bored you might risk being a little scattered. Set priorities and follow through, as many distractions (social media) are present. Free-lancing may appeal more than routine. You may take off time to start a family or find your passion. If normally shy, you like being more outgoing and spontaneous sometimes. Your friendship circle increases, but don't believe everything you hear. With the super lucky combination of Universal 9 and Personal 3 you have every reason to enjoy one of your best years ever.

Purpose for a 3 Personal Year in a Universal 9 is to be Present in the Moment. Expressing optimism and using intuition and imagination, you uplift others in a domino effect. Simple actions can sometimes have amazing effects on tricky problems. Expect to get more involved with others who share your interests. Commit to doing more of what you are good at.

Relationships: Social life is a high priority now. You could sometimes be popular and overbooked, or suddenly lonely for a close friend. Gossip could cause a problem. A sudden, intense affair may occur. Good time to date, marry, have a child, or find a soulmate friend who shares a creative interest. Money is spent on pleasurable, fashionable activities.

Career: Actually, you might prefer to be on vacation! However, look for success in marketing, hospitality, art, music, fashion, vlogging, travel, driving, part-time work.

Personal Challenges: All talk and no action. Jealousy. Overspending. Feeling artistically blocked. Troubles with a boss. Social media problems.

Personal Year 4 in 2025:

Building a solid base. Normally a 4 Personal Year is a great time to make dreams a reality and make some progress—albeit one step at a time. However, with lucky Universal 9, you may get a cosmic boost or upgrade that outshines your previous plans. With 4's cautious eye on timing, saving for the future, and handling practical responsibilities, you are less likely now to make a big or sudden change, unless forced by circumstances. (which could happen with dramatic Universal 9 beyond your control). If itching for a better situation, you are more likely to adapt to circumstances for the time being, rather than lose what you have. But Universal 9 opens unexpected doors even in this hard-working year. For example, an entry-level or temporary job could surprise with long-term benefits. This year, you tend to use your head more than your heart. Set backs turn out to bring blessings.

Purpose for a 4 Personal Year in Universal 9 is to Keep on the Path and Deal with “What is.” You enjoy being extremely productive this year, and even add some new health practices to your schedule. You have what it takes to step up for new assignments. Be ready to expand your skill set. Hone your talents. Go the extra mile. People will notice. Efforts pay off in the long run. You might have to choose between short-term gains and long-term benefits. Obstacles or hardships bring out the best in you.

Relationships: You may have less time for social or romantic activities because of work or family responsibilities. Generally, you tend to put off personal desires for the benefit of others. You may be caring for an older person or volunteering to help elders. Stubborn or difficult people teach you important lessons about your own personality!

Career: With an emphasis on practicality and expansion, (Personal 4 and Universal 9), you are ready to forge ahead no matter the challenges. Higher ups notice your diligence and commitment—but don't undersell yourself. Take disappointments in stride. Jobs often require stamina, detail-orientation, and good time-management skills.

Personal Challenges: Stress from overbooking, over-working, family pressures, keeping up appearances. See the handwriting on the wall. May be fired or laid off.

Personal Year 5 in 2025:

Uncertainty and potential sudden changes. Ordinarily, a 5 Personal Year exists to shake you out of a mid-cycle rut. Life sometimes becomes so boring that you crave to try new things. Good news! Change is more likely to come your way now. It's very likely that conditions are evolving to provide more flexibility and freedom. Generally in a 5 Year you tend to be influenced by different sorts of people, perhaps online or in groups whose interests you share. With dramatic, surprising, lucky 9 Universal Year, a big change may come to you—requiring you to be brave and resourceful. Five gives you more motivation to take chances, rather than sitting tight. Since conditions may be rapidly changing, haste may cause waste. Be sure to get reliable information before committing to a path. If big changes are not in the cards, at least change small things, like your hair cut, wardrobe, or route to work. This mid-cycle year with lucky Universal 9 helps smooth the path to where you'd like to be in 2026. This is a time to experiment and explore. Life opens up in surprising ways if you let it.

Purpose for a 5 Personal Year in Universal 9 is to Explore, Travel and Experience New Things. This is a year when courage and spontaneity are likely to lead to lucky breaks in career, health, and finances. Embrace a challenge rather than complain. Leave your comfort zone. Do something you never thought you could do. Don't worry so much about what others think. Universal 9 helps you take your talents to a broader audience. You are less likely now to go along with the crowd when it doesn't feel right.

Relationships: With freedom-loving 5 along with super-friendly Universal 9, you are likely to be very busy with all kinds of friends and interests. If a relationship is troubled, you may decide to break up. With sexy 5's spirit of adventure you may be tempted to have an affair or date someone younger (or older and wealthy). You have your secrets.

Career: Work demands may keep you away from home for long periods—even traveling abroad. Success requires being on top of market trends. Look for jobs in travel, construction, hospitality, all kinds of sales, new companies. If you make a mistake, it is soon forgotten in the changing circumstances.

Personal Challenges: Loss of an older family member. Exhaustion. Stress. Missing a golden opportunity. Gambling or alcohol addictions. Love affair with a person in a position of power.

Personal Year 6 in 2025:

Focus on responsibilities and providing for the well-being of others. This is a wonderful year to enjoy loving ties, comfort and security, and a strong sense of meaning and purpose. Powerful Universal 9 calls upon your very soul to be a compassionate force for good. Sound heavy? No worries. Just realize that your skills, love, and enthusiasm are put to good use this year, just by living the life you have. With a stronger commitment to provide, serve, and teach, you may decide to take on an extra job or work as a volunteer somewhere. This year is a great time to find a better living space, marry, start a family, graduate, or start a business. Time and money are likely spent on education, health, domestic items, or caring for parents or offspring.

Purpose for a 6 Personal Year in Universal 9 is to Be a Beacon of Light. A 6 Personal Year is a lively time with community, family, and traditional rituals. You enjoy knowing your place in society and being part of what keeps the important things alive and well. With wise Universal 9 raising your awareness of history and culture, you may decide to take up a traditional art or delve into a community project. You naturally tend to put the needs of others before your own. By the end of the year you feel great satisfaction and gratitude. This years favors teaching, supporting, and learning about the past. Your efforts are well-rewarded by the love and respect of those around you.

Relationships: Family, friends, and a comfortable home are all-important. Under stress or worry, you strive to keep a steady, loving course. Marriage or divorce are major areas of concern, depending on your situation. The absence or loss of a loved one may occur. A past wound is healed and forgiven.

Career: Family tends to be a major concern, but work is usually steady and demanding. You are more likely to stay than leave a job, unless Universal 9 brings a layoff. Likely jobs now favor team work, education, hospitality, food service, healthcare, care-giving, humanitarian work, interior design, and specialty food and wine shops.

Personal Challenges: Taking on the problems of others. Anxiety or depression. Financial strain. Domestic abuse. Very demanding work.

Personal Year 7 in 2025:

Deeply spiritual interests and understanding. In many ways, 2025 will turn out to be a very unusual and deeply moving year. However, at first you may just be craving some downtime. After a challenging 2024—likely filled with domestic concerns or even grief—you are ready for some quiet rest and rejuvenation. Personal Year 7 is a time to rethink priorities. Your needs have changed. You are more in touch with some internal guiding spirit. The outer world and its demand to keep up-- while still competing for your attention-- does not seem all that important anymore. You look forward to your calming personal pursuits. Surprisingly, you are drawn to spiritual reading or even meditation. You are more likely to stop and listen to intuition, and trust that things will work out. As you become more mentally quiet, you choose not to spend much time with negative people and unfulfilling activities. Social media seems less appealing than a quiet walk. Making different choices may result in temporary loneliness, but you come to deeply enjoy time alone and simple pleasures, especially in nature. An interest could become a passion.

Purpose for a 7 Personal Year in Universal 9 is to Become More Philosophical, Wise, and Reflective. With two super powers of spiritual influence (7 and 9), 2025 could be one of your most significant years--even life-changing. While Personal Year 7 brings a craving for simplicity and meaningful connections, Universal 9 demands you listen to the Soul's voice. Seven is often called the Sabbatical Year, so you may find time to delve into an interest, take a study course, or spend time hiking in nature or living in a remote area. You suddenly realize that time is of the essence, and you notice even the petals of the smallest flower. You might now come to understand the deeper purpose for certain events in your life.

Relationships: If an emotional connection is troubled during soulful 7 and Universal 9, you may experience loneliness, separation, or even loss. If single, you are willing to wait for a person who truly resonates. If unhappily partnered, you might need to get away for awhile. Together Personal 7 and Universal 9 can facilitate amazing, unexpected outer events and inner realizations. True love blossoms in an even deeper way.

Career: If you have special expertise under a 7 Personal year you may be well-recognized. However, karma-heavy Universal 9 could snatch a prize from under your nose. Favored jobs are in technology, banking, research, logistics, medicine, surveillance, or specialized positions in a corporation. Delays may bring a better result after all.

Personal Challenges: Periods of loneliness. Feeling you don't fit in. Hiding a mistake. Misplaced trust. Messy divorce or property settlements. Suspicions and secrets.

Personal Year 8 in 2025:

Magic happens! An Eight Year is the most likely year to realize the gains of all your hard work over the last eight years. Additionally, 2025 presents the potent combination of success-oriented Personal 8 in lucky, lucky Universal 9. At times you might feel you've won the lottery—or at least you feel excited and optimistic about life. If a raise doesn't land in your lap, you're ready to ask for one (luckiest around September (8 Personal Month), leading to October (a grand-slam 9 Personal Month). Upgrades or bonuses abound now if your situation has been building positively this cycle, If not, and there are forces beyond your control, Universal 9 could force an utterly unanticipated breakdown. But positively speaking you could not have more fortunate aspects with 8 and 9 in your life. Eight demands that you be smart, committed, and follow through even when the going gets hard. However, remember that amplifying Universal 9 could mean that mistakes are very costly.

Purpose for an 8 Personal Year in Universal 9 is to Bring Successful Material Outcomes: While you can expect any number of great rewards in a job, a project, political standing, or even marriage, the path may not be entirely easy. You must be on your A game. You are dealing with major forces now that bring the need for confidence, intelligence, and political savvy. With amplifying Universal 9, you might get more than one opportunity to advance. Forced changes may improve your future.

Relationships: Money issues play a role in all your relationships—whether from over-spending the budget, investing, inheritance, or at worst, bankruptcy. Unsurprisingly, expenses increase for home, family, education, or business. Especially in Personal 8, you desire to achieve and impress higher ups. However, with amplifying Universal 9, problems, long hours, stress, and risks also increase. Career and personal life may conflict, causing many absences at home. Logical measures are required now, rather than impulsive, overly-emotional actions.

Career: With two super power numbers, you are definitely supported for more leadership. Eight always finds success in business, corporations, financial institutions, hospitals, real estate development, or any kind of management. With 8's ambitious drive, you must be very careful not to overextend your resources into unsustainable debt.

Personal Challenges: Extra expenses. Reputation problems. Working two jobs. Legal problems. Layoff or bankruptcy. Surgical procedures.

Personal Year 9 in 2025:

End of a phase. Here you are in alignment with Universal 9, getting ready to clear the decks for something new! Perhaps you are even completing a karmic task. Especially with Universal 9, events feel “meant to be” in this turning point year. Time seems to be moving faster. Strong feelings come and go throughout the year. Emotionally, you are starting to let go of an out-dated dream or goal, or releasing a negative habit. You may be ready to retire, to quit a toxic job or toxic relationship, or to say goodbye to a loved one. Regrets or estrangements tend to be understood on a deeper level and forgiven. You are uncertain about the future, but hopeful. You crave to clear out the old, pare down. You are thinking about out what truly matters at this point in life. Since September will be a 9 Personal Month, this could be a time of a dramatic ending or move to another place. This important spiritually maturing year requires faith, optimism, and curiosity about what lies ahead.

Purpose for a 9 Personal Year in Universal 9 is to Practice Acceptance, Gratitude, and Forgiveness. You couldn't be better placed to reap rewards emotionally, materially, and spiritually. You are completing a path begun nine years ago, and now the time has come to reflect on lessons learned. Any unfinished business must be completed now, and the way is shown, even though it may be painful in the letting go. People, places, and things that you have outgrown drop away. At times, with emotionally wise Universal 9, you are filled with joy, love, wonderment, and gratitude.

Relationships: With double 9's opening your heart in so many ways, life tends to feel very intense at times. It's okay to cry, to wail, to regret your mistakes. But ultimately—if you give up feeling victimized—you find that the challenges gave you increased compassion for others and even for yourself. A long-standing condition, estrangement, or obstacle may be resolved. A relationship may end. If desiring to marry, wait until next year.

Career: With double forces calling for an end to the phase, you may be more inclined to take your gains and losses and wait for a better time to start something new. This is the time to get clear about what works and doesn't work for yourself. Achieving a lifetime goal or a huge success could quickly turn to a feeling of Great. What's next? On mundane levels, your double 9's suggest jobs that might require large investment, further training, travel or working with foreigners. If you're at the right age, you probably choose to retire.

Personal Challenges: With two dramatic 9's, challenges could be emotional losses. Sometimes 9 brings temporary depression, disappointment, sorrow or loss of faith. You may be struggling to let go of a grudge or feeling the effects of age. Living in a foreign country could be stressful.

Wishing you a Happy, Healthy, and Prosperous New Year!
