Gate 34

POWER - The Sun in Gate 34 - #HUMANDESIGN #TRANSITS #ASTROLOGY #ICHING

The Sun has now moved to Gate 34, POWER. In I-Ching this is called POWER OF THE GREAT.

This represents a POWERFUL surge of energy in response.  

People with this energy defined in their chart are busy, multi-tasking, POWER houses of energy who need to do more than one thing at a time regardless of what society tells them. Meaning it is not unusual for someone with this energy defined to have multiple jobs. They are told over and over to focus on one thing to be successful which may make them second guess their tendencies. But deep down they know they are actually more successful and definitely more energized when they have more than one job title.

Of course strategy is an important piece of this puzzle. The compulsion to take on more and more in order to stay busy may result in someone with this energy burning their excess POWER out on tasks that do not energize them. This is energy, or POWER, in response to the right tasks.

All bets are off when the POWER has been burned out. Which can often be the case if someone has lived a lifetime of pushing their POWER instead of waiting to respond with their POWER. The not self theme of Gate 34 is POWERLESSNESS. Gate 34 is an integral part of the incarnation cross of the SLEEPING PHOENIX after all.

Consider this, if you are burned out the universe will actually withhold opportunities from you out of concern for your well being.

Are you overwhelmed by your busy schedule? When you get home do you want do something fun and creative or do you just want sit on the couch, watch mindless television, and go to sleep? How can you be more selective about about the things you take on in your life? Are they in fact your responsibility? How can you be sure about adding that next big project to everything else you are juggling? How can you simplify your schedule so that you only direct your energy towards things that give you energy? What can you do right now to start taking care of yourself well enough so that the right opportunities are once again energetically drawn to you; so that you can even recognize what feels right?

Do you feel POWERLESS? Why? Does that sense of POWERLESSNESS result in you giving up on the things that are important to you? Why? Do you feel perpetually bullied? Why? What can you do today to feel more solid and POWERFUL in this world? Do you feel POWERFUL? How does your POWERFUL presence affect the people around you? Do they push back or seem overwhelmed? Are you paying attention to the affect you have on others? Is this your problem? Are you pushing to prove your POWER to others?

POWER in response is the opposite of OVERPOWERING. POWER in response is a welcome and necessary thing in this world. Right now, more than ever we need the SLEEPING PHOENIX to wake up and claim their POWER.

From Thursday, November 22 through Tuesday, November 27, 2018 the Sun has moved into Gate 34, POWER. In I-Ching this is called POWER OF THE GREAT. This is a remarkable energy of power in response. Once you set it off, watch it go! 

People with this energy defined in their chart are fast, busy, multi-tasking power houses of energy. IF they're not burned out which can often be the case if they have lived a lifetime of pushing instead of waiting to respond with this energy. The not self theme of Gate 34 is POWERLESSNESS.

Burn out aside, it is important to understand that these folks need to do more than one thing at a time regardless of what society tells them. Having to focus on one thing all the time is pretty much straight up torture. Don't make them! They need to be busy and to have variety in their life.

True confession, I have this Gate defined by the Sun in my natal chart, so you're basically hearing a cry for help.    

So while we have the opportunity to reflect on the theme of POWER this week, how does it play out in your life? Do you feel POWERFUL? How does your POWERFUL presence affect the people around you? Do they push back or do they feel overwhelmed? Are you paying attention to the affect you have on others? Is this your problem?

Do you feel POWERLESS? Why? Does that sense of POWERLESSNESS result in you giving up on the things that are important to you? Why? Do you feel perpetually bullied? Why? What can you do today to feel more solid and POWERFUL in this world?

Are you overwhelmed by your busy schedule? A loaded question I realize during the Holidays. How can you be more selective about about the things you take on in your life? Are they in fact your responsibility? How can you be sure about adding that next big project to everything else you are juggling? Better yet, how can you simplify your schedule so that you only direct your energy towards things that give you energy?

Think about that. When something truly feels right, it will actually give you energy rather than take energy away. Have you experienced this?

All bets are off however if you are burned out. Nothing gives you energy in that case, no matter how correct. Consider this, if you are burned out the universe will actually withhold opportunities from you out of concern for your well being.

What can you do right now to start taking care of yourself well enough so that the right opportunities are once again energetically drawn to you; so that you can recognize what feels right?

Happy Thanksgiving my friends. Be grateful for all that is right in your life. I know I am.

True confession, I have this Gate defined in my Sun, so you're basically hearing a cry for help here.    

Fun fact, if defined with Gate 20, METAMORPHOSIS, this is also the archetype of the MANIFESTING GENERATOR; basically the Julie (from Love Boat, AKA Cruise director) of the Human Design TYPES.    

As always, if you have any interest in finding out whether this gate is defined in your chart, click here for a free chart. 

For those of you who do not have this energy defined, The Gate of POWER is busy, busy energy, so my guess is this is how you might experience it during the transit. You may feel the need to do many things at once and find yourself in a hurry to do just that.  

I say go for it! Just plan on getting some rest next week.
