Gate 22

OPENNESS - The Sun in Gate 22 - #HUMANDESIGN #TRANSITS #ASTROLOGY #ICHING

Gate+22+(b).jpg

The Sun has now moved into Gate 22, OPENNESS. In the I-Ching this hexagram is called GRACE. 

This is an emotional, creative, sometimes dramatic energy that under the right circumstances embodies charm and GRACE. Depending on their mood, people with this energy defined can be the most charming and GRACEFUL person at a party or they can be the most DISGRACEFUL.

At its essence however, the purpose of this energy is to express the beauty from within and inspire others with its OPENNESS. This is its highest expression.

When I think of this energy, I think of Holly Golightly from Breakfast At Tiffany's. She is the most charming, enchanting, GRACEFUL, whirlwind of a character until she is not. But what a wonderful ride.

If you need to charm the pants off of someone, say you are trying to raise funds for a worthy cause for example, go find yourself someone with Gate 22 prominently located on their chart to do it for you. OR, if you happen to have this energy defined yourself you lucky duck, go ahead and charm away. Just please make sure you are in the mood.

Timing is everything and just like all Individual, Emotional energy there is a high point to this OPENNESS and GRACE, and a low point. Pay attention to your mood and politely decline that fabulous invitation if you don't feel up to being the life of the party. These things cannot be forced.

Are you the life of the party? Do you know how to turn on the charm? Does it depend on your mood? Do you have someone in your life who is amazing one day and simply not the next? Does that bother you? Are you hard on yourself when you cannot rise to the occasion? Is it possible to respect the wave? Why not? Are you OPEN to sharing who you are with others? How does this spark your creativity? Do you feel like a failure when the creativity is simply not there? Do you not love when the wave of creativity strikes? How can you tap into your creativity on a more regular basis? Is that how that even works? Is that something you even want or need?

Have the GRACE to accept your nature and go with the flow.

Spring Has Sprung #HUMANDESIGN #TRANSITS #ASTROLOGY #ICHING

Spring.jpg

Spring has sprung! I will take this change of season as an opportunity to discuss the other transits happening from March 1 through May 31, 2019.

Saturn is in gate 54, DRIVE or AMBITION until August. So the questions we must ask ourselves are as follows. Am I too AMBITIOUS or am I not AMBITIOUS enough? How is the theme of DRIVE and AMBITION getting in your way? There is an opportunity for a lesson to be learned here if we are open to it. What does DRIVE and AMBITION mean to you? Are they bad words or good words? Is it possible to find balance with how these concepts relate to our lives? Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to work on your relationship with DRIVE and AMBITION.

Jupiter enters Gate 11, IDEAS on March 8 and will remain there until May 15 when it returns to Gate 26, THE TRICKSTER. That hard work of coming to terms with your DRIVE or lack thereof could come to fruition here. If you work towards a healthy balanced DRIVE during this time you will be rewarded with a font of IDEAS. Isn’t that marvelous? Otherwise what else are you going to do with that energy for AMBITION? Gate 26, THE TRICKSTER will also provide the gift of selling those IDEAS along with a strong sense of what is true, again if you put in the work.

Finally, and I really do mean finally, Neptune will move into Gate 22, OPENNESS, on March 30th. I will personally find this to be a relief because for a very long time now Neptune has been in Gate 63, DOUBT. Which means all things spiritual and esoteric have been cast with the shadow of DOUBT. But with OPENNESS on the horizon what has contracted can now expand. This is an opportunity for us to get out of our heads and when we are in the mood, feel more OPEN to the GRACE of our spirituality. Spring will hopefully spring us back into the mood for expanding our spiritual horizons until of course September 22, 2019, when Neptune will fall back into Gate 63, DOUBT for a time. Don’t let this opportunity for expansive spiritual growth pass you by.

So get to work figuring out how DRIVE and AMBITION are getting in your way and then sell your wonderful IDEAS. In the meantime, don’t be afraid to OPEN yourself up to that deep well of spirituality. If you pay attention, it will guide you on the right path towards AMBITIOUS IDEAS that benefit us all. The truth will be revealed.

All my best wishes for a HAPPY SPRING!

Timing is everything and just like all Individual, Emotional energy there is a high point to this OPENNESS and GRACE, and a low point after all. Pay attention to your mood and politely decline that fabulous invitation if you don't feel up to being the life of the party. These things cannot be forced.

Are you the life of the party? Do you know how to turn on the charm? Does it depend on your mood? Do you have someone in your life who is amazing one day and simply not the next?

How does this spark your creativity? Do you feel like a failure when the creativity is simply not there? Do you not love when the wave of creativity strikes? How can you tap into your creativity on a more regular basis? Is that something you even want or need? Is that OK?

Have fun with the energy for GRACE and OPENNESS during this time but also think about how patient you are in general with yourself or others who are emotionally defined. If they are not in the mood, don't judge them, accept them. You really cannot expect them to bounce back and fake it. It is simply not correct or even possible. 

But when they are in the mood, prepare to enjoy the experience of getting your pants charmed off.
