2025 = 2+0+2+5 = 9️⃣ The Hemit
✨ Number 9 is the number of individuality and ego (the idea of I, who you think you are).
Look at the 4 nines of the minor arcana, they represent a period of reflection, consolidation, perseverance and resilience. A time just before ultimate completion.
9 is 3x3, the Trinity X Trinity, the Trinity of 'god' squared ⬛
9 is the penultimate number before the completion of the cycle at 10.
What we apply at 9 will be amplified and manifested into our reality during 10.
✨ In the Naples Arrangement, 9 is the Points idea of Being (Sat)
Sat: truth, absolute being or existence– that which is enduring and unchanging.
The 10 is the cycle fulfilled in its complement, as determined by 7, 8 and 9 (Sat-Chit-Anada)
(Sat-chit-ananda (सच्चिदानन्द) is a Sanskrit term that translates to "existence, consciousness, and bliss" or "truth, consciousness, bliss". It is a key concept in Hinduism and Advaita Vedanta philosophy, and is considered to be the pinnacle of non-dual understanding.)
✨ 9- The Hermit
The Hermit card is associated with Chiron in Virgo.
Chiron represents our wounded warrior. The trauma scars that we cannot ever fully heal, but can learn to live with and work with in a positive manner
This is the year to go within. To sink into introspection, solitude, journalling and meditation.
This is the year for spiritual quest; the quest to Know Thyself.
Use this time to withdraw from the noise of external influences and opinions; news, social media, TV....and quietly check in with yourself.
Are your thoughts and opinions truly yours?
Do they line up with your values and your mission in this realm? Or are they projections that serve your unhealed aspects and fears?
Use Virgo's analytical skills to create distance from the sea of your emotions and thoughts, view them with impassivity and glimpse the monsters that lurk beneath. Be the witness.
Shadow work will be very important in 2025.
Reflect on your thoughts and feelings, examine yourself with curiosity.
Be true regarding your dark side, and be brutally honest when studying your motives and actions.
Give yourself grace and compassion no matter what you find...and then help others to do the same.
The soul work we do this year will frame where we end up collectively and individually in 2026 when the Wheel of Fortune spins....will we be on top of the wheel rising into the bright sunlight? Or will we be sliding downwards into degradation and darkness 🎡
