Does anyone here have any specific knowledge about what it means to be going into a "3" year?

I am entering one in Feb., and I have heard that it is meant to be year of ease?

I have had a very difficult, very frustrating, very slow going year this year, very in line and in tune with the #2 year that it was for me, I think.

So, what can I possibly expect for this upcoming year though?

Thanks for answering at all if you can!

I have no idea what a "3" year is! I am sure someone will ...

2+4+2+0+0+4=12

1+2=3

And some of the numerological systems that I've studied, in particular the system put forth by Dan Millman that he illustrates in his book, "Live The Life You Were Born To Live," state that each year has an energy for us all it's very own, which corresponds to each of the 9 single digit numbers.

And he does indeed go on to explain what each numbered year might bring for you.

If I have time later on, I will get that book and copy right here what he believes the years might resemble for a person, but I don't have the time to do that right now though.

This annual change in our life energy cycles which he writes about is supposed to begin for each one of us on our birthdays of that particular year, which again for me will be happening on Feb. 4th, and then lasting until the next time you put candles on your birthday cake again, lol.

So that means that there will be a very different energy coming forth in my life soon in Feb. if that is true, and I personally believe that it is true.

He states how slow moving the 2 year can be for a person, and this year has been one of the MOST frustrating years of my life, one in which I could not move forward for the life of me, lol.

But he seems to feel that the 3 year is meant for much more fun and creative expression etc... though.

So, I just wanted to know if anyone else here tracked their own years according to the numbered cycles, and if they did, what they felt came into focus etc... during a year that carries the 3 energy for a person.

I'll try to post more info. about what he says about all of this later on, but he is not the only author to make these statements about it though, and as a matter of fact, I have read that each month, and even each day are all supposed to carry a particular energy within themselves which all correspond to the numbers 1-9, but I can't remember the specific formula for deducing those monthly and daily numbers however though.

Based on the number, it says the lesson of that year is the number of the major arcana.
3 is the Empress, and she is all about nuturing, the Earth, sexuality, caring for others as well as one's self. The Empress is a sensual creature, loving beauty in herself and all the things around her; she channels her energy directly from the Earth, and manifests it as art, whether that be in the form of cooking food for her family or making beautiful surroundings for herself.

The Empress is a cool chick. Sounds like you should have a great year. I hope this helps in some way, even if its not related to your book. If you want to know more, pick up the Motherpeace Playbook by Vicki Noble.
(or just ask, and I will try to answer)
