Synthesis and the "Number Nine"
The numbers 2025 add up to a "Nine" and in Numerology "Number 9" represents "Synthesis"
Synthesis can be described as the combined power of things working together for a better outcome.
Synthesis begins within.... and this is a year for all of us to "gather, align and integrate" the separate parts of ourselves and our lives.
So let's consider some relevant questions....
How well do we know ourselves... our history and the stories of our ancestors?
Do we know the potential of our strengths?
Have we discovered our weaknesses and are we developing strategies not only to manage them but to graciously integrate them into our lives and possibly even transform them into superpowers?
How have we scattered our energies and our attention?
And... what are we going to do with the precious gift of "our remaining Life Force Energy"?
The Hermit card of the Tarot is also a
"Number 9"
The Hermit archetype encourages us to retreat into solitude.... and through a process of personal discovery develop fortitude and self mastery....
Forging a relationship with our own inner wisdom and guidance .... and emerging as role models .... to lead others by example.
What are we Synthesizing?
The past 5 years have brought much chaos and separation... we are all scattered and divided like never before... spiritually and ideologically... personally and politically.... economically and ethically....
While it may appear that we are at a crisis point on every level.... often times, "when we feel the most fragile"... our lives are aligning with the greatest potential for healing transformation.
Elements of Renewal
Renewal is really about having a fresh start...
After we've taken a complete inventory of our lives... refreshing and updating our attitudes and recycling old patterns and habits... we can emerge with new energy and enthusiasm...inspired by inner clarity and a sense of purpose.
Wood Snake Medicine
In Chinese Astrology 2025 is also the year of the Wood Snake.
For most ancient cultures Snakes symbolize potent eternal cycles of death and rebirth healing and renewal
The Wood Snake, in particular, reminds us to ground ourselves reconnecting with our roots and gradually shedding what no longer serves us.
Like the snake that sheds its skin, we too are invited to let go of outdated patterns and emerge renewed.
What signals the snake to begin it's shedding process is actually a message that a new and improved version of itself is ready to emerge... so in order for us to shed our old skin we must first grow a new skin underneath!!!

Thank you so much, Ashala, for writing this amazing blog. Reading it felt like you were talking to me directly. You are describing perfectly what I'm going through right now. For the last 9 years, I have lived like a hermit, and I'm shedding my old skin in all areas of my life slowly working towards my new skin to emerge. My coaching sessions with Kristal are helping me to make sense of it all and to connect more with my inner world. Thank you for sharing all yor wisdom with us.
