The Sun has now moved into Gate 57, INTUITION. In the I-Ching this hexagram is called THE GENTLE.
This is the energy for INTUITION plain and simple. But that is not so simple is it? How do you trust in something as nebulous as INTUITION?
One, you have to believe you have it in the first place. Second you have to push through your fear of the future. Third, you have to turn your brain off and actually listen to it. Because this energy in particular truly is about listening. The mastery of this energy is clairaudience. Meaning there is the potential here for hearing voices or sounds that communicate the truth. In fact, this energy is one of the strongest indications in the chart for psychic abilities.
But I would argue whether you have this energy defined or not, we all have varying types of intuition. Most of the gates of the spleen for example have a particular sort of intuition, there are the transits of course, and we must not forget the amplification of other people’s intuitive abilities can be very powerful. But for those of us who have this energy defined, this INTUITION works in a fixed manner. That is what definition means. The energy is fixed.
So while we’re on the subject what does INTUITION mean to you? Do you have it? Do you trust it? Do you think other people are crazy when they talk about their INTUITION? Why? When your INTUITION tells you to walk away from something do you do it? How does that turn out? What does your INTUITION tell you on a day to day, hour by hour basis? How does this relate to your authority? If you heard a voice in your head would you listen?
Are you open to hearing what the universe has to tell you?
