Sun in Gate 9
✨Human Design Weather Report✨
This upcoming week is an particularly potent time to practice finding pleasure and joy in the process of living, instead of fixating on the outcome you are trying to achieve. Stop trying to impose your mind’s plan on the world around you, and surrender to the universe’s greater plan.
The Sun just entered into Gate 9: The Taming Power of the Small (Focus).
“Potential can be fulfilled through detailed attention to all pertinent aspects”
In the Sacral, this is the power to pay attention to details. Patience, precision, diligence, deliberation.
If you are rooted in your Strategy & Authority, you may find that this week's transits bring a greater power to focus on the things that actually matter to you, the energy to approach your tasks with a greater thoroughness. If you are stuck in your mind, you may find yourself distracted by unnecessary detail work, unable to sit still, or frustrated unsure what to focus on.
It is possible that multitasking will feel particularly overwhelming this week. If this is your experience, perhaps experiment with choosing just one focus at a time, and giving it your full attention.
The Earth is in Gate 16: Enthusiasm (Skills)
“The great art of enriching life by the harmonic channeling of energy”
This is about identifying with a skill and dedicating yourself to the logical, step-by-step process of endless repetition and refinement. Mastery requires disciplined practice.
As part of the collective logical circuit, these energies might feel tedious and boring. There are no shortcuts, this isn’t about abstract meanings and beliefs, there’s no ego here and it’s not particularly sexy; this is about finding satisfaction in the mundane. This is one foot in front of the other, in service to the greater good. Chop wood and carry water, humbly doing our part to ensure a healthier future for all.
And, again- this is about having faith in the process. You don’t need to know where the work will lead you, but when you allow your body to serve as your compass and tend to all the necessary details with care and devotion, a greater plan will reveal itself to you.
You have the right to perform your duties, but you are not entitled to the fruits of your actions. Do not let the fruits of action be your motive, nor let your attachment be to inaction."
— Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 2, Verse 4
Gate 9 in line 6, the role model is called: GRATITUDE
“The joy which comes with accepting small rewards for small victories”
This week, I invite you to set down your mind’s agenda, and practice gratitude by finding joy and enthusiasm in the each movement. Stop wishing you could fast forward to the solution, stop wasting your attention on fantasies about the future. Focus on the actions themselves, and trust that they will bear fruits in their own timing.
