Planning for 2015 Using the Number 8 in Numerology

Do you believe in luck or do you think luck is merely preparation meeting opportunity? There are two schools of thought when it comes to luck, the idea that you make your own luck and the idea that luck finds you every once in a blue moon.

Using the idea of numerological influences, you can take advantage of upcoming events, using them to your advantage. Many times, cycles and changes in our lives occur gradually over time, so it's never too early to start thinking about 2015.

Looking at 2015, in terms of numerology, we can see that the number 2015 translates into the number 8. The reality is the numerological influence of the number 8 starts to begin in November 2014 and its influence continues through October 2015.

The number 8 represents many things from success, to self-confidence, to abundance. The number 8 also represents balance and power, which can be a good thing. Having a number 8 year could mean a year of accomplishments, action, goals and dreams, and even destiny or fate.

With the upcoming New Year it's never too early to start coming up with new goals and dreams for your life. If you don't plan ahead, then fate or destiny may take over, and that may not be a good thing. It's important to remember that goals are more achievable if you take small steps towards them. Make a point to do something every day that moves you closer towards your goals, even if it only involves spending 5 minutes in meditation or visualization.

The number 8 also has to do with the material world, including things like money and possessions. This may cause you to be a little more reckless with your money, whether it's buying a new car on impulse or going on a shopping spree.

If you have been waiting for the perfect time to start a new project or plan, then the energy of the number 8 may just be the perfect time. The number 8 also has to do with career and business opportunities. The number 8 has been referred to as the great karmic influencer, which is a force that creates as well as destroys. What this might mean for you is that all your hard work over the last few months and years is about to pay off in a big way.

The number 8 is all about drive, ambition, organization, discipline and control. If you struggle with those things, the influence of the number 8 should help you. The number 8 has a masculine influence, which is a good thing if you tend to be one who shies away from confrontation. If you have something on your plate that you need to address or confront, you may be better off waiting until 2015, when the number 8 comes into play.

With this powerful number representing 2015, any plans you make now will be sure to shine next year. If you haven't started thinking about your goals or dreams for 2015, now might just be the perfect time. With the number 8 on your side, you are sure to be successful.
