~first~, when you read your 6 Essence and 5 Personal Year chapters, you probably noticed their traits are polar opposites. Although this can make things challenging, it also has the potential to bring much needed change.

You can expect this to be a hectic year, and not always comfortable. Your 6 Essence will seek stability during a year when many of the events and circumstances (delivered by your 5 Year) will produce the opposite. Your 6 Essence lends a realistic, harmonious and caring state of mind. It focuses on home, family, and close friends, and seeks to strengthen those relationships. The 6 has practical goals for career and other project related endeavors and focuses on the long term.

The year's main conflict stems from your practical mindset being at odds with your (sometimes) chaotic surroundings. The desire to anchor your life during a period that frequently derails your plans might make you feel you are in the middle of a whirlwind.

Still, there is an upside to this team. The restless energy that shakes things up will offer opportunities that can improve the quality of your life. The influence of last year's 4 supplied very little movement, which was probably frustrating at times. This year, with the dynamic 5 influencing events, it could feel a little unnerving instead. It may help if you keep in mind that it takes movement to alter your path and change your destiny.

The key to getting the most out of this period is to establish a balance between flexibility and dependability. Keep an eye on your long-term goals and priorities but be ready to adjust if circumstances change.
