the answer + what it means for your year ahead!
What’s up swimmers?! Happy last day of 2024! Happy almost new year!
Tomorrow, I’m going to send you an email about the numerological NINE YEAR—the last in the current collective cycle that’s run from 2017-2025—through the lens of four big-picture keywords: Humanity, Service, Solitude, and Completion.
But for today, I thought we’d keep things personal, and chat about the chart placement that’s going to be highlighted for everyone in 2025: The Public Persona number.

The Public Persona Number 🎭
The Public Persona number, sometimes referred to as your gift, is a bit like the costume you wear during the play of your life. Found by adding the month and day of your birth (and, if applicable, reducing to a single digit), it represents your most social and performative self—the version of you that meets other people out in the world. I also like to think that this placement highlights facets of your personality that can aid you along your life path.
And in 2025, this number gets to stand in the spotlight!
To find your personal Yearly Cycle number, you add the month and the day of your birth, aka the Public Persona number, to the current year, and reduce until you reach a single digit.
2025 is a 9 year, which is a fascinating number mathematically. See, when you add 9 to any number, and do the math to simplify it to a single digit, you’ll end up with whatever the original number was (the one you added to 9). Seriously, it’s like the 9 just disappears within the equation!
For example: 9 + 5 = 14. If you reduce further, you’ll see that 1 + 4 = 5, which was the original number added to 9.
Voila!
This means that in 2025, your Public Persona number and your Yearly Cycle number will match, emphasizing its energy in your chart and experience!
Over the summer, I hosted a series of three workshops cumulatively titled, The Road Trip. The first, What Are the Rules of the Road?, employed a plethora of travel metaphors to get to know the Life Path and Public Persona numbers.
To help prepare you for 2025, I thought I’d share three qualities of the Public Personas, which may come in handy during your year ahead!

Just read this and whewww...I'm an 8, I guess that's good. "Balling on a budget" sure sounds like me anyway.
