The Duality of a 5 Personal Year and 2 Essence cycle can be challenging, ~first~. The main conflict stems from your Essence being largely focused on feelings and relationships, while your Personal Year influence wants freedom, variety, and adventure. Your 2 Essence produces a mindset that desires peace and harmony during a period when your 5 Year rocks the boat and brings change.

You will probably be restless this year, and a little tired of the predictability of your circumstances, thanks to your freedom-loving 5. However, your vulnerable 2 Essence could make you hesitant to address those feelings, for fear of disrupting your romantic (and other) relationships.
Consequently, you will likely find one side of you holding back, while the other side reaches out.

With your Personal Year delivering the dynamic 5, events and circumstances around you could be unpredictable, seemingly random, and often hectic. The conflict with your desire to maintain the status quo while your environment summons you to take chances can cause considerable frustration. It can also make you indecisive and hesitant.

Your best response is to ignore - to some extent - the tendency to be overly cautious and conventional. (Your fragile 2 Essence could make you worry more than usual.) Courage, decisiveness, fast thinking and quick reflexes are the tools needed to make the most of this combination.

Relationships that have a solid foundation will adjust and survive. Try to be sensitive to others (easy for the 2) but honor your need for change and excitement as well.
