From Sunday, November 11 to Friday, November 16. 2018 the Sun has moved into Gate 43, INSIGHT. In the I-Ching, this hexagram is called BREAKTHROUGH.

So the theme for this week will be about working things out in your head to see things in new, INSIGHTFUL ways.

Be careful though, expressing these INSIGHTS hinge entirely on correct timing. This is part of the channel lovingly referred to as Genius to Freak which actually helps illustrate the importance of timing. Blabbing your insights without invitation often results in resistance in other people. To be frank, it often comes off as you telling them something about something [insert eye roll here]. Wait for an invitation however and your INSIGHT may be received by others as a stroke of genius! Simply asking, "I may have some INSIGHT to share, would you like to hear about it," will change the dynamic of the conversation entirely.

Human Design teaches us that having a brilliant thought in your head and acting on it rarely turns out well. But sharing and discussing that special INSIGHT when the timing is correct may allow others to respond to the idea and act on it in an energetically sublime way. 

The gate of INSIGHT is understandably one of the ALONE gates. It contains the energy to be lost in our own thoughts. Time alone is essential because you need to concentrate to make that BREAKTHROUGH. Also, let's face it, people who are in their head are not the greatest listeners.

So while this energy is transiting I invite you to think about how the theme of INSIGHT touches your life. Are you someone who continually has your head in the clouds? Do the people in your life complain about you not listening to them? Do you find yourself seeking time alone to work out your thoughts? Or are you someone on the other end of this energy? Does it drive you crazy when you feel alone with someone who is lost in their head? When that person who is lost in their head turns to you and says something outlandish do you consider what is surely a gem of INSIGHT contained within it? If not would you consider allowing this person time alone with their thoughts to work things out more clearly? Is it possible to not take that personally?

Rejection is hard for anyone. INSIGHT and BREAKTHROUGH are fragile things that can be shot down rather easily. Be patient and kind to yourself and to others in our pursuit of the BREAKTHROUGH.
