The energy of the year
A year of solitude and reassessment. Energy turns inward; a time to study, withdraw, and reconsider the road rather than to launch. Protect your depth, but don't isolate out of habit.
Why The Hermit rules this year
Each personal year is coloured by one of the 22 arcana — here, The Hermit. The year borrows that arcanum's nature: its gift when you work with it, its shadow when you don't. Read The Hermit in full to see both poles.
How to find your personal year
Your personal year isn't a calendar trick — it's read off the age perimeter of your own matrix, so it turns on your birthday, not on 1 January. To know which year you're actually standing in, run your chart.
