You’re In a Cycle – Not a Rut

Each year of your life has a theme—one you can work with or unknowingly resist. This blog explores Annual Profections, an ancient timing technique that helps you understand the focus

While the world marks time with calendars and clocks, your soul keeps a different rhythm – one that doesn’t always make sense to your logical mind.

It’s why some years feel strangely quiet, as though life has pulled back its tide.
And others arrive like fire – full of urgency, decisions and change.

This isn’t random.
It’s not chaos.
It’s timing.

And when you begin to work with that timing, life opens.

There’s an ancient technique in astrology called Annual Profections.
It maps a 12-year cycle that begins the moment you take your first breath.
Each birthday, a new part of your life is activated such your home, health, identity, career, money, voice or relationships.

Some years call you to act. Others ask you to pause.
Some bring visibility. Others pull you inward.
And when you know which year you’re in, things start to make sense.

Even the so-called ‘stuck’ years – where nothing seems to move – serve a purpose.
These are the fallow years. The ones that ask you to restore, to listen, to recalibrate.
Because growth isn’t always visible. And clarity doesn’t always come through doing.

Signs you may be out of sync with your year’s theme:
– You feel stuck, like no matter what you do, nothing’s shifting.
– You’re pushing forward, but things keep falling flat or closing down.
– You’re tired in a way that rest doesn’t seem to touch.
– You feel unusually withdrawn, or unable to connect with what once inspired you.
– You’re following advice that doesn’t feel quite right – but don’t know what else to do.
– You keep comparing yourself to others and wondering why they seem to be moving ahead while you’re standing still.
– There’s a low-level sense of frustration, confusion or even sadness you can’t quite explain.

These are not signs of failure.
They’re signs of friction – of being out of rhythm with the deeper timing of your life.

To know your profection year is to enter into a different relationship with time – not as something to master, but as something to partner with.
It changes the way you make decisions.
It shifts the way you feel about what’s unfolding.

This is the work I’ve dedicated myself to and the reason I wrote my book Stars Aligned.
It’s a guide to understanding this 12-year cycle and working with it in real time.

Tomorrow evening at 7pm, I’m offering a free one-hour webinar:

Your Cosmic Year: A Guide to Annual Profections

I’ll introduce the Annual Profections technique and offer two live mini readings so you can see it in action.

No astrology knowledge needed.
Just a willingness to listen to what your year might be trying to tell you.
