FINISHING THINGS - The Sun in Gate 42 #HUMANDESIGN #TRANSITS #ASTROLOGY #ICHING

The Sun has now traveled to Gate 42, FINISHING THINGS, COMPLETION, or CONCLUSION. In the I-Ching, this hexagram is called INCREASE.

This is the energy for, you guessed it, FINISHING THINGS. What it is not however is the energy for starting things. Tricky that. So someone with this energy defined without its counterpart, Gate 53, STARTING THINGS are better off when they respond to an existing situation where they can come in and COMPLETE the project. 

I can understand why there are multiple quotes from Neil Gaiman about FINISHING THINGS because he has the energy for STARTING THINGS but not FINISHING THINGS. No wonder it's on his mind. He has spent a lifetime trying to figure out how to FINISH THINGS. I think many of us can relate. 

Are you good at FINISHING THINGS? Are you a procrastinator? Do you have someone in your life that can swoop in and COMPLETE things for you? How does that make you feel? What narrative have you created around the concept of FINISHING THINGS? Do you see yourself as someone who never FINISHES what they start? Is that bad? Why? Who assigned that label to you? Do you feel anxiety and pressure when things aren’t FINISHED? Why? What is the worst thing that could happen if you don’t FINISH what’s on your plate right this minute? What are some jobs that you can think of where you have the opportunity to COMPLETE what has already been started?

Wouldn’t it be wonderful for an individual with the energy for STARTING THINGS to partner up with someone with the energy for FINISHING THINGS? Do you see how those puzzle pieces fit together?

Transiting Wednesday, April 11 through Sunday, April 15, 2018

The Sun has now traveled to Gate 42, FINISHING THINGS or COMPLETION. In the I-Ching, this hexagram is called INCREASE.

This is the energy for, you guessed it, FINISHING THINGS. What it is not however is the energy for starting things. Tricky that. So someone with this energy defined without its counterpart, Gate 53, STARTING THINGS are better off when they respond to an existing situation where they can come in and COMPLETE the project. So many of us struggle to FINISH THINGS. What a wonderful energy to swoop in and lend a hand. 

I can understand why there are multiple quotes from Neil Gaiman about FINISHING THINGS because he has the energy for STARTING THINGS but not FINISHING THINGS. No wonder it's on his mind. He has spent a lifetime trying to figure out how to FINISH THINGS. I can relate. 

Anyway, take advantage while this energy for COMPLETION is in the air and pull out that dusty old project that you just can't quite seem to FINISH. Depending on how sensitive you are to transits, you just may have the boost you need right now to see it through.

And if it's your birthday this week, won't you please consider coming over to my house to help me finish organizing my garage? 

Transiting - October 14 through October 18, 2017

The SUN is in GATE 32, CONTINUITY, and the EARTH is in GATE 42, FINISHING THINGS.

The Gate of CONTINUITY is the energy for intuitively knowing when an opportunity, dream, or idea has the potential for success. This is not necessarily the energy to initiate and make success happen for yourself. But it IS the energy to evaluate and guide someone else's vision. This is an excellent energy for a venture capitalist for example. 

Again, these transits are hanging out in the spleen lately so there is fear here as well. The fear of failure no less. But sure, it's scary to embark on a new business venture, especially when you know deep down the success is not meant for you. People with this energy often feel compelled to act on their instinct for what will be successful and they inevitably fail because there is no energy to manifest. So, yeah, fear of failure becomes very real.

What is grounding us during this time is the energy for FINISHING THINGS. Hallelujah! So many of us who don't have this energy defined, struggle to finish what we start but this week we have it in spades. So pull out those old, unfinished projects and finish them. Successfully doing so will indeed alleviate that fear of failure and give us the sense of accomplishment we need.

So, we instinctively know what ideas would be successful and we have the energy for FINISHING THINGS. What a wonderful time to collaborate and help each other find success! Get together with your friends and co-workers and brain storm. Allow other people to respond to your ideas and vice versa. Trust their intuitive assessment for your project and enjoy the satisfaction of being invited to share your innately wise assessment of theirs. This is exactly how this energy is meant to thrive.
