2024, Universal Year 8
PERSONAL GROWTH


It's important to properly conclude each cycle before embarking on a new one. So, first and foremost, let's reflect on 2023.
How did you experience this year in 7?
In numerology, 7 is synonymous with spirituality, cosmic revelations, knowledge, philosophy, and introspection. It's the number of clairvoyants who communicate with the unseen, of shy thinkers who can lose themselves in a book for hours, of druids who commune with the forest's elementals.
7 is magical, full of promises, but also sharp. It leaves no room for false pretences; it invites you—or rather, it pushes you with all its might—to embody your truth, to explore the depths of your soul, to uncover that warm and brilliant flame that ignites you and makes you vibrate in harmony with the Universe. Beautiful, isn't it? But it can also take the form of a big slap in the face. I told you that 7 doesn't accept false pretences. Down with limiting beliefs, down with deceptive appearances, away with the lies we tell ourselves and the masks we wear to satisfy others and fit in! Not in the right place? Not fulfilled? Well, get moving, my friend (it's not me talking, it's the 7).
That's why I'm asking: How are you? How was 2023 for you?
Personally, I know that it indeed shifted, starting off faster than ever! A bit lost in January, I got dragged to an energy healer, and boom, it clicked. A month later, I moved into a new flat and became a Reiki Master while writing a course on chakras. And I kept on assimilating and learning.
Chronic rejection of authority? Well, become self-employed, my dear! (Again, it's the 7 speaking to me.)
In the span of a year, I would have moved into the flat I had prayed for months on end, created M.Ananda and everything it offers in three languages, replaced wild nighttime dances with an hour or two of daily yoga, left the much-desired flat and flown away to New Zealand, where I resumed my digital nomad lifestyle. Originally, the plan was to settle for good in Spain and make a living from translation. As I said, in a Universal Year 7, you can't do things halfway.
Anyway, enough about me!
2023 is over. If the Universe has done its job well, you should either be a bit shaken in your habits, possibly holding new cards regarding your alignment, or envisioning new directions. If you're just lost, it's okay. Actually, it's even a good sign: uncertainty is the promise of a multitude of possibilities. For others, changes may be subtle, but it's always interesting to take the time to come back to your centre and assess what has shifted within you, even if it's minimal.
Now, onto 2024. It's a year in 8, an energy just as interesting but quite different from that of 7.
8 is about abundance, expansion, prosperity, the materialisation of projects, the self-confidence that allows you to shine, the conquest of your personal power that allows you to build empires. So, grab your hammer; the time has come to materialise everything you've been dreaming of—everything that emerged in 2023 and that you manifested. It's an energy conducive to self-fulfilment, to realising your dreams, and to exploring the field of possibilities. It's time to show professional audacity and material acumen.
Horizontally, 8 becomes infinite, like the number of options available to you. Whatever your ideas, the moment is ideal to try to bring them to fruition. It's a year of entrepreneurship leading to abundance in its broadest sense.
So dare, dare to be yourself and follow your desires, dare to shine with that little flame generated by 2023 that ignites and turns you into a flamboyant phoenix. Let your soul and your heart guide you, and find the balance that suits you.
❂ A beautiful year 2024 and a happy new cycle to you ❂
