From Friday, January 11 through Wednesday, January 16, 2019, the Sun has now moved into Gate 61, MYSTERY, also known as WONDER. In the I-Ching this hexagram is called INNER TRUTH.
This is the energy for thinking about the great MYSTERIES of the universe. People who have this energy defined in their birth chart are often fascinated by the occult; generally anything unknowable. Located at the very top of the chart in the center where inspiration resides, the Gate of MYSTERY is seeking the answers to why we are here. Divine inspiration resides in the Head Center. One can certainly entertain themselves for hours with these kinds of thoughts but whether or not they lead to anything definitive is another thing altogether; it is really beside the point.
If someone with this energy thinks they are supposed to solve these great MYSTERIES, they could inevitably feel a sense of dejection or failure. They might feel a wee bit of melancholy due to some of the subject matter sure, but also due to the loneliness involved with being fascinated by the great MYSTERIES of life when the people around them are not. It is certainly not easy to be considered odd or strange by others. As with all projected energy, it helps to wait for the invitation to talk about these subjects.
There is a knowingness to this energy that cannot be simply explained. There is no proof. But that is the point. There is no need for proof. There is indeed WONDER in that.
What does MYSTERY mean to you? Do you love the unknowable? Does the unknowable make you uncomfortable? Why? Do you prefer concrete subjects? Is that bad? Do the MYSTERIES of the universe fascinate you? Is that good? Do you believe in ghosts? Do you believe in subjects that are impossible to prove? What about God?
If you are not one of the lucky souls who have this compelling connection to all things MYSTERIOUS defined, now is the time to ponder what the universe has in store for us. Allow yourself to get lost in thought. Is there indeed a divine order to things? If so, what is the purpose of the current state of the world? What part, if any must we take in this narrative to help humanity?
Of course these are my questions, not yours. Allow inspiration to strike and ponder the great MYSTERIES of this world and the next. Have fun with this opportunity for deep thought.
