Effects Personal Year and Universal Year Have on Each Other

The personal year is an individual numerology chart number. The universal year is a number that pertains to everybody — public, not personal.

The universal year has little, if any, effect on an individual unless their activity affects large groups of people. Examples of such activities might be actions a politician takes at the country level or the actions of an operations officer of an international corporation.

The universal year is an excellent number for predicting the type of events and circumstances likely to occur inter-country or worldwide.

The personal year is an excellent number for predicting the type of events and circumstances likely to occur for an individual person.

As you noted, the number 8 is your personal year number. It is also your heart's desire number and your current pinnacle cycle number.

The number 8 resonates with, among other things, realism and material accumulation.

Fortunes are the result of action and response to unanticipated events. What you do and don't do is not possible to calculate with numerology because free will and self-determinism are yours. What you do is what creates your future.

Numerology can predict the general nature of some challenges. But they're longer cycles than the effective period of a personal year number.
