Personal Periods
9-day cycles of personal energy
The 9-Day Periods
Each person has a 9-day cycle that repeats continuously. It is calculated by adding birth day + birth month + current day. Each period has different energy.
Period 1 - Beginning
New beginnings, initiative, fresh energy. Ideal for starting projects.
Period 5 - Change
Transition, freedom, adventure. Time to experiment and adapt.
Period 9 - Closure
End of cycle, release, compassion. Time to let go and reflect.
How to calculate your current period
Add the day and month of your birthday, then add the current year. Reduce. For example, birthday 15/03 + year 2026: 1+5+0+3+2+0+2+6 = 19 → 1. You are in personal year 1: a year of beginnings. The 9-day period within each month is calculated by adding the current day + the month + the personal year and reducing: if the day is March 7, personal year 1: 7+3+1=11→2 → you are in period 2 (connections, patience).
How to make the most of periods
Each number (1-9) brings a different climate. Year/period 1: begin. 2: cooperate. 3: express. 4: organize. 5: change. 6: care. 7: study. 8: harvest. 9: close. It is worth aligning decisions with the period: launching a project in period 1 flows better than in period 9. This is not rigidity: it is the wind at your back when you take advantage of it.
Suggests, does not determine
A bad personal year does not prevent successes; a good year guarantees nothing if you do not act. Periods are indications of the general climate, not specific events. They serve to plan better, not to predict the future point by point.
