Seriously, stop scrolling for a second and think about it. Where were you living? Who were you with? What were you starting, quitting, or stressing about?
Astrologers do this all the time. "What were you doing in (insert year here)?" they ask, because (insert planet here) is about to go retrograde in (insert sign here) again. Well, numerology has its own version, and it's built right into the system. Everything moves in nine-year cycles, which means we can always look back nine years and find ourselves standing in the same energy.
2017 was a 10/1 Universal Year. So is 2026.
2 + 0 + 1 + 7 = 10, and 1 + 0 = 1
2 + 0 + 2 + 6 = 10, and 1 + 0 = 1
One is the number of beginnings, of planting seeds, of "okay, I guess I'm doing this now." And it goes deeper. September 2017 was a 19/1 karmic month, just like this September. Same number, same flavour, same 11 triad transit, same lesson coming back around for another look.
And we're walking into a pressure point right now.
September 30/October 1 is the ¾ mark of the year: the action point. Action points behave a lot like squares in astrology. Things get cagey, fast, a little stressed. Whatever has been simmering or left unattended suddenly shows up and demands to be dealt with.
Because it's one point in a year-long timespan, I give it an active period of about three days on either side. That puts us in the zone from today, September 27, through October 4.
So if this week feels like it's moving at 100 miles an hour, or like everyone got up on the wrong (or weird) side of the bed, it's not just you.
Here's why looking back helps.
Whatever you were planting or pushing through in late September 2017 is a clue. It doesn't mean the same thing will happen, but the theme tends to return. Maybe you started a job, left a relationship, moved, or finally said "enough." That's the seed energy you're working with again, just nine years wiser.
Want to go back further? 2008 was a 1 year too. So was 1999 (28/1), and so was 1990, which was a 19/1, the same karmic number as this month. Facebook is great for this, because it will cheerfully show you every moment you ever recorded there.

What's ONE word for what you were doing in September 2017?
(Mine's will be in the comments.)



Funnelled.
Facebook was absolutely NO help to me, so I had to do this the old-fashioned way and think HARD, lol. In September 2017, I was being funnelled into one specific set of services and being pushed to step out as an authority in my field, if only locally.
And here I am nine years later, being funnelled again, but instead of being funnelled into one lane in the beauty industry, the transits are pushing me into coaching with numerology via Tarot. Same energy, different chute.
