2011 – The year to prepare

While most of us think of the number 4 as a stabilizing force, it is also the number right before the turning point of the number 5.  Changes are predicted in 2012 by many numerologists, as it will serve as the point where the energy kicks over from the devastation of the economic crisis.  While most of us are looking forward to getting out of 2010, it is important to prepare for 2011 since the cycle has not ended just yet.

I am not a numerologist and am not attempting to make a forecast of the coming year but instead wanted to point out some of the ways that energy will ebb and flow on the road to strong change.   The ups and downs of energy and of life have a downward dip prior to the uprising of the wave.  We see this if we take a pencil and draw up and down hills on a piece of paper.

2009 and 2010 have shown the declines that have led to economic and some personal issues.  If this was the downward spiral and 2012 is the upward motion of change; we have to consider how far down the rabbit hole goes and how fast we have to spin downwards in order to gain enough momentum to climb the next “hill”.  2011 is the year that will provide this answer, so while we are stabillizing in the process of knowing how challenging the situations are, it is not the cure.  We will find that we are in the curve that will eventually become the upswing.

In preparing for the coming year, make sure to have your plan solid and your faith in recovery strong so that you may ride the tidal wave to a better situation.  Relief will come at some point in the next year but it will be a journey to get to that place.  Embrace the momentum of the journey so that we can then embrace the butterfly of change.
