Personal Year Number
Your birth day and month plus the current year, reduced: the theme of the year you are in.
How to calculate
Add your birth month and day to the current year and reduce. Born 29 July, in 2026: 7 + 2+9 + 2+0+2+6 = 28 → 10 → 1. Some numerologists switch years on 1 January, others on your birthday.

Common questions
When does my personal year change?
Most numerologists use 1 January; some use your birthday.
Is a 9 year bad?
It is a year of endings, which clears space for the 1 year that follows.
