As we enter Aries season, we step into a portal of bold beginnings, fearless action, and self-discovery. Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, ignites the fire within, pushing us to rise with courage and confidence.
But before we rise, we must release—shed the weight of what no longer serves, clear old patterns, and let go of limiting beliefs (we are in an eclipse portal right now.) This season is an invitation to align with your highest self and embrace the energy of transformation.
Your Personal Year Number (calculated by adding your birth month, birth day, and the current year together, then reducing to a single digit unless 11, 22, or 33) offers a roadmap for how Aries season will shape your journey. Let’s explore how you can release and rise in alignment with your Personal Year:
Personal Year 1 – The Year of New Beginnings
Release: Old identities, fears of stepping into your power, and self-doubt.
Rise: Fully embrace leadership, trust your instincts, and initiate new projects or paths with confidence. Aries season fuels your momentum—be bold in your decisions.
Message from Spirit: As you step into bold new beginnings remember you do not have to do it alone. Find your support system, find like-hearted beings that ignite your fuel for new beginnings. Go to networking events, book a soul day with your spiritual bff's and be in community.
Personal Year 2 – The Year of Harmony & Connection
Release: Resistance to vulnerability, people-pleasing, and relationships that drain your energy.
Rise: Strengthen self-trust, set boundaries, and embrace collaborations that uplift and support your personal and spiritual growth.
Message from Spirit: Build foundations in self and soul care, bringing about this inner knowing that you have the skills and abilities to put your needs first so you can be a clear vessel not only to support yourself but others as well. It all begins with you and you have the power and light within to share your healing powers and step out boldly knowing you are protected.
Personal Year 3 – The Year of Expression & Creativity
Release: Perfectionism, creative blocks, and fears of being seen.
Rise: Share your authentic voice, embrace spontaneity, and lean into joy. Aries season amplifies your creative energy—express yourself freely!
Message from Spirit: Stop over-thinking about your next steps. Spirit wants you to know and trust yourself and if you find yourself in your head a lot - time to get creative and into your body. Release through dance, art journaling, singing. Celebrate yourself because you are already doing the dang thing so embrace your wins big or small and infuse joy at this time.
Personal Year 4 – The Year of Foundation & Stability
Release: Overworking, resistance to change, and fear of uncertainty.
Rise: Ground yourself in sustainable action, create new structures, and find balance between discipline and inspiration. Aries season offers the fire to build with passion.
Message from Spirit: Your hard work is paying off and things are happening even if it can feel heavy right now. To shift, Spirit wants you to remember that you are building heaven on earth through your gifts, skills and abilities. And your soul's mission is being expressed even if it feels like it's not happening at the pace you desire. Surrender to the timing and keep the faith that everything you desire is on the other side of doubt.
Personal Year 5 – The Year of Change & Expansion
Release: Stagnation, fear of the unknown, and outdated routines.
Rise: Say yes to adventure, take calculated risks, and welcome change with an open heart. Aries season encourages you to move forward with excitement!
Message from Spirit: The universe is calling, are you picking up what she's putting down? Embrace change and muster up the courage to follow your ideas and intuition. You are here to share your message and that usually comes from the deep transformation you are experiencing right now. Instead of fearing the unknown, there is an inner warrior inside asking you to harness strength and FLOW with FIRE!
Personal Year 6 – The Year of Healing & Responsibility
Release: Emotional burdens, self-sacrificing tendencies, and the need to control outcomes.
Rise: Embrace self-care, nurture meaningful relationships, and step into leadership within your home or community with renewed energy.
Message from Spirit: It's time to practice devotion. Come back to your heart-center and tune into asking yourself empowering and revealing questions. What devotional practice do I need at this time? In what ways can I nurture myself? Tune in your soul has been nudging you to focus on your self and soul leadership this season. Psssttt- what if you changed the word responsibility to devotion - how would your experience change in your body?
Personal Year 7 – The Year of Spiritual Growth & Inner Wisdom
Release: Overanalyzing, self-isolation, and fear of trusting your intuition.
Rise: Deepen your spiritual practices, trust your inner knowing, and embrace solitude as a sacred space for transformation. Aries season helps you take action on your insights.
Message from Spirit: Dance with Inspired Action! This year has called you to be inward, reflective and Aries season is supporting you to change up your energy and start taking your insights and putting into fiery and bold action. When you change up your internal energy and bring movement of thoughts, feelings and teachings, your external world will shift as well.
Personal Year 8 – The Year of Power & Manifestation
Release: Limiting beliefs around success, imposter syndrome, and money blocks.
Rise: Step into your authority, claim your worth, and make bold moves in your career and finances. Aries season ignites your ability to take decisive action!
Message from Spirit: It's time to NOT TAKE YOURSELF SO SERIOUSLY and PLAY! The duality of life is this...Stepping up and leading is from lived experience and sometimes in the energy of 8 you become out of balance with working too damn hard and forgetting that life isn't just about work but about joy, celebrations and having fun. Why work so hard if you aren't having fun? PERIOD. Take the bold energy of Aries and infuse adventure and fun into your season. Because to be an empowered leader, you also gotta live LIFE in joy!
Personal Year 9 – The Year of Completion & Surrender
Release: Past baggage, attachments, and anything no longer aligned with your highest path.
Rise: Let go with grace, trust the process, and prepare for new opportunities. Aries season brings clarity on what you are truly ready to move forward from.
Message from Spirit: Cut cords from past hurts and situations. Aries season is supporting you to take inspired action in further letting go of old patterns or soul contracts that are no longer serving you. Whether this is in your present day life (release bad habits or relationships) or karmic lessons and debts you are here to transform on your journey to Spiritual Evolution and your highest calling. You are being supported to clear energetic blocks from past lives and current day soul contracts so you can move forward to truly align on your soul's mission.
