Sun in Gate 60: Limitation (Acceptance), Earth in Gate 56: The Wanderer (Stimulation)
“Understanding the vehicle and how it operates alleviates the stress and tension between the life you think you deserve, and the life you’re currently living.
Nobody ever woke up by thinking that they deserved a better life. You wake up by accepting the life you have. The first step upon the path of awakening is self-acceptance.”
-Genoa Bliven (3/5 Splenic Manifestor, Right Angle Cross of Explanation)
The Sun has just entered into Gate 60: Limitation (Acceptance).
In the Root Center, this is the drive to empower change, innovation and newness- the challenge is, we aren’t in control of if/when change becomes available to us. Mutation operates in a pulse ⚡
When connected to Gate 3, there is the potential for something totally new to come into existence, a mutation in the pattern- but this is only a potential, when the pulse from Gate 60 spontaneously turns ON 🎉
When the pulse is OFF, we may feel restless, melancholy, moody, and even depressed. Bored, stuck, creatively blocked, resentful that nothing is happening, held back by limitations. We may think: “This is just the way it is, and this might be the way it’ll always be”
“The acceptance of limitation is the first step in transcendence”
We can work to become stronger, more flexible and balanced, more resilient, capable of holding more... but still, there will always be legitimate, unavoidable mechanical limitations to these human forms. We require sleep, food and water in order to function. A Projector’s guidance is only successful when invited. An emotional being cannot rush their process of arriving at clarity. Creative individuals will inevitably encounter rejection and experience periods of melancholy.
Accepting your body’s limits helps create the optimal conditions for you to access your creative potential and experience spiritual transcendence. Trying to override the limitations of your vehicle creates unnecessary chaos, frustration and instability.
Gate 60 motivates us to get resourceful and find creative solutions amidst limitations. It teaches us how to find inner harmony and spaciousness despite external restrictions, and work within constraints in order to unlock new possibilities.
Let’s say you are in a yoga class, and you are not currently flexible enough to touch your toes. Perhaps with practice this will change, or perhaps toe touching simply is not what your unique vehicle is built for.
Regardless- unnecessary suffering arises when you think there’s something wrong with you, you mentally fixate on the limitation and why it shouldn’t be there, or overanalyze the meaning.
Instead of trying to force yourself past your limits, try to find your way into an expression of the posture that still allows you to breathe deeply. Love and accept your body exactly as it is, and perhaps you will begin to open up to a feeling of transcendence!
And then, the Earth is in Gate 56: The Wanderer (Stimulation)
“Stability through movement. Perpetuation of continuity through the linking of short term activity”
In the throat center, this is a trait that craves stimulation and also loves to stimulate others.
This is a voice that says, “I believe”. Beliefs aren’t meant to be stagnant; they evolve as we travel through life collecting experiences and wisdom. When we get stuck in our beliefs, we create unnecessary limitations.
This week, you may find yourself feeling restless and agitated, frustrated by limitations, craving stimulation and newness, hungry for new ideas. Your Strategy & Authority will help you discern which limitations to accept, and which you are ready to transcend.
This week’s transits invite us to explore the relationship between limitation and beliefs.
Ask yourself:
Where do I currently feel limited, or stuck?
Is this an actual limitation, or is it simply my belief that is creating the illusion of a limitation?
Where am I refusing to accept limitations and creating unnecessary chaos in my life?
How might I operate more creatively within the authentic constraints of my current reality?
Where might I be living my life resigned to the story that I am limited, having adapted to past restrictions, when actually the limitation is no longer there? (For example: Your financial situation has improved substantially but your behavior around money has remained just as tight and restrictive. Or perhaps you went through a phase where you relied on medication, and now you are still dependent on it even though your current life circumstances don’t require it.)
Xo,
