2024: Our Collective Year 8
We just released our Personal Year Guides for 2024, but what about the collective? While each of us moves into our new respective year, so too does the collective shift in tandem. With this, we find ourselves universally in a Year 8 in 2024, which we arrive at by simply adding all those digits together - 2+0+2+4=8.
What does that mean? Well, the number 8 speaks to energy, movement, momentum and reward (among other things). It corresponds to Strength (Justice in some decks) and The Star in tarot. The number 8 also makes us think of that powerful Lion’s Gate portal, the concept of infinity and the myth of Ishtar, whose symbol is the lion (Strength) and the 8-pointed star (found on The Star)…curious.
2024 By The Numbers - Navigating The Personal Year Cycle
It’s going to be 2024 before we know it, so we wanted to get ahead of the game and release our Personal Year Number information a bit early this year!
For those who have been visiting us for awhile, you’ll know it’s tradition around here to offer these free, comprehensive guides each and every year. We do this because this system has become something of a special interest for us. Ever since I (Julia) started paying attention to it in 2015, I’ve really been able to see how the themes of each year manifest themselves, which helps me to prepare and respond accordingly. It’s kind of like working with the cycles of the moon or the seasons. Once you begin to acclimate to its rhythm, you can begin to see how your own life mimics that flow, and how you can get the most out of the current you’re in.
Interview! Chatting with Thomas of Hermit's Mirror
Happy 222222!
We can talk about today’s interesting numerology in a moment, but first we wanted to share that we had the opportunity to sit down with Thomas of Hermit’s Mirror yesterday to talk about his latest deck - The Life Line Tarot: Colour Outside The Lines edition.
In our hour long convo, we discuss the Kickstarter process, the differences or changes from the first edition of this deck to the second, its connection to inner child work and the undeniable link between tarot and creativity.
