How to find your number
In order to determine what your number is throughout 2003, add the numeric value of the month of your birth (April = 4), to the day of your birth, to the universal year number 5 (representing 2+0+0+3=5). If you have a total that is a double-digit number, add it together until you have only one remaining number between 1 and 9. To find the number for 2003, a person whose birthday is May 20 would add 5 + 20 + 5=30. 3+0=3. This person’s personal number will be 3 throughout the year from January through December.

1 - July: This month may feel intense as you deal with issues that require organizational skills, good management of time and money, and directing your efforts into meaningful pursuits. The focus is on balance and harmony, so in whatever way you’ve been out of balance, pay attention to those areas. If you’ve been over-achieving, be willing to back off a bit. If you’ve been under-achieving, take care of every issue in front of you. This month favors those who are willing to recognize goals and to work for their attainment…but who also are aware that they need to take time to smell the flowers. In other words, recognize your multi-dimensional nature and make the most of it!

August: This is a month of completion. Relationships may shift, attitudes go through purging, or you recognize it is time to clear out areas of your living space that are cluttered with things that no longer serve you. The opportunity this month is to release issues, relationships, or items from the past that are not part of the future. By clearing out clutter, whether internal or external, you are making space for something new to enter your environment that is appropriate to who and what you would like to be rather than who or what you’ve been. If someone leaves you, let them go with love. Develop gratitude for everything that is given and taken, for the Master Gardner is pruning you to strengthen and renew you for greater growth to come!

2 - July: Whatever is no longer conducive to your growth will undergo reassessment this month. There may be a feeling of loss or the need to let go of something you’ve held on to for sentimental reasons. Value and purpose are important. By putting your faith in a higher power and opening the floodgates of gratitude for what you DO have in life, you make room for more to come. When you feel resentment or dwell on what isn’t working, you block the flow of light that can fill and nourish your being. Count your blessings this month, no matter what occurs. There is a bigger plan unfolding, and your greater good is part of the agenda.

August: Develop fortitude and character in the face of challenges, and recognize the difference between reacting out of impulse, versus reasoned self-discipline. As you pay attention to the inner prompting of Divine Will, you can take action that will benefit you. When you react defensively and act in haste, you can make decisions that backfire later. So be ready to move forward with discernment. Then you can enjoy a grand adventure knowing that your listening to angels of your better nature!

3 - July: It’s time to take the initiative, expect the best, and make things happen. By focusing on what you want and being bold in your attitude of possibility thinking, you can truly meet people who will be of benefit and help you to advance. Make sure you are working with a positive attitude that radiates confidence not only in yourself, but also in possibilities for others. If you are egotistical, you won’t impress anyone. If you believe in yourself and what you can offer, others will respond. Courage, stamina, and self-reliance are important. Pay attention to what voice you follow…the inner prompting of Divine Will, or the impulsive voice of self-importance.

August: Prepare to be awakened by events or insights that have the potential to enlighten you. You may feel instant rapport or disillusionment toward someone…connecting or disconnecting. Within yourself, recognize the quality of your thoughts. Do they support and nourish you, or are you being bombarded by internal negativity? It’s time to weed out those elements that defeat you and do things that uplift, encourage, and support you in moving forward. Make sure you are giving AND receiving so that all your relationships are a win/win.

4 - July: You may have sudden insights that make things crystal clear, or moments of complete forgetfulness that cast doubt on what you are doing. It’s a month of duality, and as you find yourself being brilliant in one moment and dumb the next, don’t attach yourself to either. There is an internal light burning brightly, regardless of appearances. Choose quality people, thoughts, and food. Everything you come in contact with internally and externally either nourishes or depletes you, so you are required to be discerning. Pay attention to your intuition, and call upon faith as your ally. It will be of valuable assistance when choices are presented, and will awaken more of your potential, just waiting for discovery!

August: Time to kick up your heels and have some fun. Find avenues for more self-expression and groups of friends with whom to enjoy light hearted moments. All work and no play makes for a dull life, and this month offers possibilities for magical moments and opportunities to shine your light. Even if there are emotional issues that crop up because of others who are close to you, inject humor and try to see the absurdity of life, rather than being drawn in to someone else’s drama. Be playful and colorful, and adopt a child’s sense of wonder. Then life can respond in kind!

5 - July: It’s time to express yourself more fully. Whatever brings you joy and delight… find it and do it. Take advantage of possibilities. If there are emotional issues that come up, don’t self-sacrifice for others who need to go through their own stuff. You can be loving and compassionate, but you don’t need to side step your own potential to commiserate with someone else. Use humor and laughter to get through the absurdities of life, and make the most of the good times presented. In other words…Lighten Up!

August: There are opportunities for making breakthroughs in areas of life that require a new vision or willingness to go beyond your own perceived limitations. Offers can come to you that seem overwhelming. There may be a project that requires rebuilding on a stronger foundation. Life events such as birth, death, divorce, and marriage may be part of the equation. The function of this month is to help you overcome inertia or patterns that have kept you stuck. By pushing a little harder you can make breakthroughs…and the outcome may be nothing less than transformational!

6 - July: Parts of your life may be going through a restructuring process. It’s time to look at the strengths and weaknesses within the foundations that uphold the backbone of your relationships, your work world, and yourself. Discover patterns of reaction that no longer work for you and develop a new approach. Birth, death, marriage, divorce…the building blocks of life. The month is asking you to confront issues related to your ideals. You be willing to make breakthroughs in the way you view yourself and others by risking more or pushing yourself beyond a barrier. Like the butterfly that goes through the cocoon stage to become itself, strengthen your wings and break through the enclosures that bind you. Then, you will feel the empowerment of transformation and fly free!

August: There may be a lot of activity that requires flexibility and adaptability on your part…things that require you to stay centered regardless of external events. Make sure you are realistic about how much time you have to accomplish tasks, and when dealing with contracts, read the fine print. There can be a tendency toward haste under this influence, but in legal situations, take your time. Power players may try to use you as a pawn to gain their objectives, but as long as you are clear about your own motives, you can be discerning. It’s a good time to expand and explore possibilities, so reach out and enjoy the adventure of life!


7 - July: Change, activity, motion, expansion, versatility….wow! It’s time for some action and a change of scene, so take a trip, do something out of character (or become one), and explore possibilities. You may run into a few power players along the way, so be clear about your own motives and discerning in choices. You can accomplish a lot during this interval when you focus on a goal and put the nervous energy of the month into achievement. Otherwise, it can be a smorgasbord month of lots of activity, many types of ideas and people, and not much to show for by month’s end. But given that this is a more inward year, perhaps that’s just fine. Enjoy yourself and have fun doing it!

August: August calls on you to consider others and participate in activities that bring you into the fold. When you give of yourself with a loving heart, you will feel great appreciation. There can be wonderful moments and deep loving connections made this month. It’s also time to focus on taking better care of yourself health wise. Reach out with gratitude to whatever life brings you and respond from a deeper perspective whereby your spirit bathes you in the light of your own soul’s grace. Then you feel enriched, and become a blessing to everyone!

8 - July: Focus now is on relationships, family, health, and service. Your reputation is important, so make sure you are doing what validates the good opinion you desire! As you concern yourself with the needs of others, your approach can help to smooth rough edges. Compassion goes a long way, and as you do whatever you are called to do with a loving heart, you receive recognition and heartfelt gratitude. When you do things just for show or out of a sense of obligation, it’s duly noted, and the response will be likewise. Take good care of yourself this month. Pay attention to what you are eating and the amount of rest you are getting. When you take care of psyche and body, they’ll take care of you, and then everyone will be happy!

August: The focus now is on hibernation or taking time off to be in nature or with your self doing something important to you. It’s a month in which to recharge your batteries and nourish your soul. Look for the spiritual truths beyond all appearances and play the role of observer. Too much activity is draining under this influence, so make sure you are taking time off. You can gain through inner work now, so don’t be afraid to delve a little deeper into the truth of who you are and why you are here. Relationships have a "fated" quality this month and may bring major lessons in their wake.

9 - July: The focus this month is on your spiritual nature. Life events may draw you to a more internal view, and you may feel the need to retreat from over-activity. You are being called to have more time for the deeper portion of your nature. Whether that is spending more time in nature or in a garden…studying something that is relevant to you, or having time for a hobby that gives you a sense of connectedness. If you avoid confrontation with yourself, life may cause you to take time involuntarily through illness or other forms of being "cut off" from doing things as usual. Find beauty in simplicity, and gratitude for the opportunity to be still. You will benefit from soulful connections…most importantly with and to yourself.

August: Use organizational skills and determination to achieve goals you set for yourself. It’s a month of harvest for past work well done, or for reaping a dose of reality that requires you to take care of all things you’ve left undone. Harmony…inner and outer is the focus. Check out where you overdo, or don’t do enough. Bring things into balance. Responsibility may be part of the deal, and you might be asked to take over management for someone else or for an estate. No matter what comes, the response called for is your willingness to deal with whatever is needed and giving your best in the moment. When you do this, success is yours!
