2009 is an 11 year (adding 2+0+0+9, you get eleven). In numerology, eleven signifies spiritual transformation and understanding, and the interface of the physical level of existence with the mystical, the mundane with the archetypal. It represents the embodiment of the principle "as above, so below".
The number eleven is what's known as a Master Number, and with good reason. It takes mastery to contain and use that kind of energy constructively. It requires a lot from us, but in return, it gives a lot, too.
The eleventh chapter of the Tao Te Ching:
11
We join spokes together in a wheel,
but it is the center hole
that makes the wagon move.
We shape clay into a pot,
but it is the emptiness inside
that holds whatever we want.
We hammer wood for a house,
but it is the inner space
that makes it livable.
We work with being,
but non-being is what we use.
Namaste, and see you next year.
