Today 1-1-1-marks a powerful transition and portal.

In numerology, 2+0+2+6=10 1+0=1. The 1-1-1 combination opens a portal to fresh starts, new beginnings, and active engagement. It’s time to put all the work you’ve done into action and create what you’ve envisioned.

I believe that 2025 will stand out in history books as more than a quarterly marker in the 21st century. The events of this past year represent a dramatic shift in world politics, societal systems, and cultural norms—affecting every level of collective and personal living.

Maybe calling it a “dramatic shift” is too gentle. Things are broken. And this time, irrevocably. Our lives will never be the same.

And that’s what the image at top represents to me. It’s telling me to shift my focus from big-picture macro view to close-up micro perspective—at least for now, for this year.
