It is a number (1–9) describing the dominant energy of a calendar year for you personally, from your birth month and day plus the year in question, reduced to a single digit. It repeats on a nine-year cycle.
How is it calculated?
Add the digits of your birth month, birth day and the target year, then reduce to 1–9. For example, born 12 May in 2026: 3 + 5 + 1 = 9.
