Another Spot Of Number-Gazing - The Year 2017
2017 is going to be an extra special year for us and our world, as far as I can tell. This is because it will be under the influence of the following energies: 2 = the Moon, planetary ruler of Cancer, the sign of the wisdom and love of the Great Mother. This main influence is followed by the 0, which attunes us and our world to the circle of Eternity. The first two are supported by the 1 = the Sun, planetary ruler of Leo, the sign of the will and power of the Great Father of life. Their combination of these three energies are coming together to bring healing and peace to our world, as the birthchart for the coming year clearly shows – more about it in a moment. Last but by no means least comes the seven = Neptune, the dreamy, idealistic and other-worldly planetary co-ruler of Pisces, together with Jupiter. Neptune represents the highest love vibration of the Universe. Its energies are going to be freely available to all who are ready to tune the receiver/transmitter station of their whole being into the Neptunian energies, to bring the inspiration of the Highest levels of life down to the Earth.
2016 was a number 9 year. 2 + 0 + 1 + 6 = 9. 9 + 1 + 1 = 11 = the master number of transformation. The first day of this year revealed that there would be many transformations in the form of endings and completions. As we moved through the year, this could clearly be seen everywhere in our world. It has been especially noticeable in the United Kingdom where an unusually large number of people, who had been in the public limelight and much loved by many for a long time, passed into to the world of light. There was also Brexit and in the USA the death of people like Mohammed Ali and the last year of Barack Obama’s presidency. However, the Universal laws decree that every end is followed by a new beginning and the year 2017 will be no exception. 2 + 0 + 1 + 7 = 10 – 1 + 0 = 1 and this reveals that a whole new cycle of experiences today lays before us like an open book. And through the knowledge with which the Universal Forces are providing us, the tools are being placed into everyone’s own hands for doing their share of slowly but surely making our world into an ever more peaceful and loving place.
And now let’s take a look at the birthchart for the coming year. It’s like a snapshot taken in time and space on the 1.1.2017 at 00.00 hours. The energies available on this day are the main influence of the year that is to come, setting its tone and determining the pace and general direction of the year ahead. This means 1 + 1 + 2 + 0 + 1 + 7 = 12 = 1 + 2 = 3. The 3 is ruled by the energies of benevolent and expansive Jupiter, planetary ruler of Sagittarius, the sign responsible for the development of humankind’s superconscious faculties. The birthchart’s ascendant is in Libra, the peacemaking sign of the zodiac, ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty, harmony and peace. Jupiter is in Libra in the first house and forms an easy aspect, a trine, with Venus. Therefore, the combined energies of Jupiter and Venus will be the most influential ones in pulling us and our world forwards and upwards on the evolutionary spiral of life into the beginnings of more spiritually aware, enlightened and peaceful times.
The chart’s Moon is in Aquarius in the fourth house, the Moon’s own house, where its energies are particularly strong. The Sun and Pluto are in close conjunction in the fourth house in Capricorn, an indication that power-struggles are likely to continue. The influence of the Saturnian energies in this sign could be bringing delays and frustrations in peace talks, but may also give rise to a budding sense of responsibility in the troublemakers of our world. Chiron, the wounded healer, is in Pisces, the house of the soul and Karma, in the sixth house, the natural domain of Virgo, the teaching and healing sign of the zodiac. The North Node is in this sign in the eleventh house, which adds to the Aquarian note of the chart and shows that the balance of our world will be restored mainly through friendships and group activities, and that astrology will have a major role to play in these efforts.
