The Ship Has Set Sail

 

Meaning of the Number 1

The Year 2026: 2+2+6 = 10 = 1

Numerologically, 2026 is a number 1, which signifies new beginnings and unity with life.  Because 2026 holds both the energies of the number 10, or 1, this is not simply a year of fresh beginnings, but a year of reorganization with the experience of the past nine years – particularly culminating in a greater revelation of realization and understanding to help humanity move forward with this next nine-year cycle beginning again now.

The number 1 also signifies the creative mystic center which is the spiritual unity that unites all beings.  The archetypical symbols of the ship and the chariot are related to the number 1 – ship symbolizing transport across the waters of the unconscious, emotional energies moving into our conscious awareness; the chariot symbolizes action, conquest, competition, and is related to the hero’s and heroine’s journey we all must take on our path of spiritual awakening and growth.

Global Influence

The number 1 energies for the planet represents a global reset.  The ship has set sail with a strong wind of purpose and determination and the boundary lines we’ve known appear to be changing in places on the planet.  The United States may seek to control all the South Americas and regions of Africa for natural resources.   Europe continues to assist Ukraine in winning freedom from the Russia invasion, and the US may very well make an about-face to greater support for Ukraine.  China may overtake Taiwan.

The stars of higher consciousness are ever present to hold us steady, but the fire horse energy of 2026 is bucking with the power of victory on its mind.  Humanity’s struggle with the dark forces of spiritual ignorance and sole control through material gain, once again, come face to face with the clarity, power, and enthusiasm of the light of higher truth.  If we could describe the world as a movie presently, it would be Clash of the Titans.  Citizens on the planet feel the stress and uncertainty of all these power plays.  Simultaneously, some people in powerful places will be revealed and weakened for negative past actions.

However, much of humanity is recognizing more clearly that darkness or evil at its core always holds the seed of its own self-destruction.  Human history keeps reflecting this truth for us as a guide and a hope to help us hold courage and take positive action.

Because of this high energy drive for achieving success and victory, in comes the element of stubbornness and impatience. It’s one of the down sides of the number 1, which could be the Achilles heel if world leaders don’t take the time to see all the consequences of possible outcomes.  Yet, within this fast-moving wind, the sails of the world ship are still directing us as true and constant as the stars, to the light of who we are in a material, dual world.  It is the light that always remains, upholds us and awakens us to the higher consciousness of love, after the darkness self-destructs.  Because what is left is the recognition that we are a united humanity within our diversity, and the illusion of division was always used as the tool to force us to forget.  We are recognizing this.  Hope always follows the rainbow!

What’s the outcome of 2026 in this gale force wind of almost blinding activity?  A deeper awakening as we citizens of the world open our eyes to see more clearly, which leads to a thirst for freedom and truth.  Positive choices and direct action will help hold our fellow brothers and sisters united with a favorable wind that will slowly head toward the peace of calmer waters and safe harbor for our future.

Individual Influence

To determine if this is a number 1 year for you personally, add the digit of our birth month and the digit of our day of birth to the digit of the current year.  This rule is the same for everyone.  Here’s an example on how to figure it:

Birth month is March = (3)   Birth day is 15 = (1+5=6)   Current year is 2026 = (10 = 1)

Total: 3 + 6 + 1 = 10 = 1

You are entering upon a new cycle of experiences, and the next nine years of your life depend a great deal upon what you begin to do now.  This is a time to have the courage of your convictions, to make plans, and to avoid inertia or indecision.  But you must have a solid footing and focus, so you don’t become impatient and create conflict with a self-induced stubbornness that could throw a wrench into your plans by acting too hastily without having first reviewed your options and opportunities.  This is your year to start anew. Take care of your health and make sure to get enough sleep to help you reenergize.  Breathe! Meditation would be an excellent tool to help quiet your mind, listen to guidance, and allow the creative energy of the universe to flow through you.

Look to the future and let go of the past.  Use any lessons from the past to help you recognize you’ve been learning more and more about your personal truth – what you want and don’t want in your life.  Be kind, understanding, and patient.  It may be necessary to finally let go of things having to do with the past – which is something you’ve been more intently working on since last year, in order to take advantage of new opportunities.  Don’t drift or have fear of the future.  Remember, worrying is like praying for something you don’t want to happen.  You really need to look at 2026 as a new adventure!

This is your year!  Try to broaden your activities and in meeting circumstances which come up unexpectedly.  This would be the perfect year to meet people who have the same new interests you’re exploring.  The colors gold, paprika, cinnamon, and cranberry are the colors to help you win in 2026.
