Personal Year 6: The Year of Responsibility

Your Personal Year describes the conditions of the year you're currently in — what it favours and what it asks of you. It runs on a 9-year cycle and changes every January.

What this year is

A Personal Year 6 settles the turbulence of the 5. Attention turns home and inward to the people in your life: family, partnership, community, and the domestic conditions you have been neglecting. Responsibility increases, sometimes unbidden — a family need, a role you did not seek. This is a warm year with real weight in it.

The focus

Home, family, relationships, and duty. Commitments deepen: marriages, births, moves, caring for a parent, taking on a team. Domestic and aesthetic life wants attention. Service to others is the theme, and satisfaction this year comes from being genuinely useful to people close to you.

What to do

Tend your relationships and your home. Make the commitment if it is right. Repair what is broken with family. Improve your living space. Accept responsibility where it is genuinely yours, and let people rely on you — the year makes that nourishing rather than draining.

What to avoid

Taking on what is not yours. The 6-year trap is absorbing everyone's problems and arriving at the 7 year depleted and resentful. Avoid controlling others in the guise of helping, and avoid perfectionism about home and family. Sacrificing your own needs entirely will cost you the next year.
