The Sun has now moved to Gate 63, DOUBT, QUESTIONING, or CURIOSITY. In the I-Ching this hexagram is called AFTER COMPLETION.

On the one hand this is the energy of the ultimate critical thinker. Logic dictates we QUESTION the validity of a concept until we can definitively prove it in a practical manner. This is a good thing. If ever we needed critical thinking, it is now. 

On the other hand there can be a tendency with this energy for people to get locked into a cycle of SELF DOUBT, which is not good. This gift of the DOUBTING Thomas is simply not meant to be directed at oneself or at one's loved ones. This energy is not intended to paralyze us with SELF DOUBT and it is for sure not intended for us to DOUBT the people we love. 

But if this energy is directed in a positive way, it is an imperative part of humanity. This is the energy for the scientific method. 

What does it mean to be a critical thinker? What is the source? Where is the evidence? What exactly is the difference between something called fake news and an actual falsehood? What is news and what is propaganda? How can we know for sure? 

Are you giving yourself the credit you deserve? How can you have more faith in your own abilities? What if you actually do know what you're doing?

Are you giving your friends and family the benefit of the DOUBT they deserve? How can you trust them more and QUESTION them less? Can you see how being perpetually DOUBTED by someone you love can degrade the trust in a relationship? 

QUESTION everything but have faith in you and yours.
