Today, Monday April 4th, our Sun moves into Gate 51. Gate 51, SHOCK or AROUSING. In the I-Ching this hexagram is also called THE AROUSING.
This is the energy of the shaman or mystic who goes through a difficult initiation or trial and is "shocked" into spiritual awakening. If you have this Gate or the entire channel (25-51) you don't have to seek this initiation. It will come to you. It will get your attention. On the less serious side, people with this energy defined like to be a little shocking. They enjoy it. They have a little fun with it. They might say something out of the blue that is a little shocking and they often enjoy the response they get. It's a little comical but ultimately it is all about bringing others back to Spirit. This is also highly competitive energy which can be experienced by others being competitive with them or being competitive themselves. I have this entire channel and people will often attempt to compete with me because I have this energy. They will pull in front of me and take a parking space I was about to turn into and then just grin at me. Or, when I am reaching for a loaf of bread at the store, grab it before I can take it off the shelf. This used to puzzle me, because I don't really care much for competition, but now I am fascinated and amused by it. When you begin to notice these energies at work it's quite interesting and a little funny to be honest. It's interesting to see the contrast between who we are and who others project us to be. So this week this Gate is activated in all of us! It should be very interesting. Although we all might feel like being a little "shocking" lets make sure we temper that with love and use this energy in its highest expression! Richard Rudd's thoughts: Gene Key 51 Shadow- Agitation Gift – Initiative Siddhi – Awakening “Awakening is really a series of softenings. Our awareness becomes more one-pointed, but our heart and mind become softer and more open. Whenever we’re confronted with harshness, the unexpected, noise, turbulence, the thunder of life, instead of tensing up, we can relax and open, soften and become milder. Mildness is an essential quality needed to allow spiritual initiation.” – Richard Rudd, 64 Ways Each year the sun moves counterclockwise around the gates of the mandala (like the sun moves through the astrological signs), spending approximately 6 days in each gate. As the sun (or any other celestial body) moves through a gate it **“activates”**the energy of that gate. This means that the energy is released to “flow” to us. The sun is considered the most dominant and important transit to be aware of.) **Human Design is a synthesis of ancient and modern sciences; proven to be a valuable tool for human understanding.

Tomorrow, Wednesday, March 30th the Sun moves into Gate 21, THE TREASURER or CONTROL. In I-Ching, this hexagram is called BITING THROUGH. “Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over instead of craving control over what you don't.” ― Steve Maraboli Many suffer needlessly because of an attachment to the idea that to be in control of outside circumstances, or other people is a guarantee of safety or getting what they desire. This particular brand of control is rooted in fear. In reality, chaos and balance are cyclical characteristics of the same earth experience. Both are part and parcel of the same trip. While we'd like to prevent chaos it is not always possible. Often chaos is necessary to bring old, tired patterns to a close and make room for that which is more balanced and healthy. If we can learn to trust nature and her inherent wisdom, and our place in it, our suffering will lessen greatly. If what we want is true change it is important that we take stock of what we can control in our own lives. This is where powerful change can take place and the only medium of control effective and long-standing in impacting our world and others in a positive way. In other words....it begins with us! This inside-out approach is the most effective way to use what little control we do have with any kind of potency. It is also courageous and loving. I enjoy Richard Rudd's thoughts on what he calls Gene Key 21. Shadow-Control Gift- Authority Siddhi – Valor “Ultimately this Siddhi will be needed by all travellers into the beyond, because it takes Valour to die with an open heart. To give up our identity, our attachments, our body, and merge into the limitless light, requires the exquisite cocktail of courage and love.” – Richard Rudd, 64 Ways Each year the sun moves counterclockwise around the gates of the mandala (like the sun moves through the astrological signs), spending approximately 6 days in each gate.

In the I-Ching this hexagram is called FOLLOWING. “If you wish to see the truth, then hold no opinion for or against.”- Rajneesh Everything in this 3D reality is temporary and impermanent. Especially the information that we think we know now. Human beings have a tendency to become so attached to an opinion that when new information arrives it can be challenging to "shift gears", so to speak, due to the discomfort that results. This discomfort is called cognitive dissonance. Cognitive dissonance refers to a situation involving conflicting attitudes, beliefs, or behaviors. Festinger's (1957) cognitive dissonance theory suggests that we have an inner drive to hold all our attitudes and behavior in harmony and avoid disharmony (or dissonance). This is known as the principle of cognitive consistency. There are positives about having opinions. Opinions open the door to discussion and discussion can result in understanding. Opinions, in and of themselves are not negative or positive. It's our clinging or attachment to them that can cause us, and others, pain, and suffering. This week, as the Sun activates this gate, it might be very tempting to want to share your opinion. Try to keep in mind that opinions operate best when invited. Also, keep in mind that what you might believe to be true today can change if new information is introduced. Look at the big picture. You might be surprised by what you see. Be flexible and gracious to yourself and others. We are all learning and we all do that differently and at different rates. Richard Rudd's thoughts.... Gene Key 17 Shadow-Opinion Gift – Far-sightedness Siddhi – Omniscience “How can we harm another when we realize that they’re a part of us? How can we harm another when we’re feeling so good? The 17th Siddhi is part of the tradition of sudden awakening. When someone sees through their denial, it shatters them wide open to the core. This is St.Paul on the road to Damascus; this is a thunderbolt.” – Richard Rudd, 64 Ways Each year the sun moves counterclockwise around the gates of the mandala (like the sun moves through the astrological signs), spending approximately 6 days in each gate.

In the I-Ching this hexagram is called INNOCENCE.
I am going to speak from my heart. Before I even knew about Human Design or the I-Ching this gate called to me and I resisted it. I fought so hard throughout life to maintain a sense of control and erroneously thought freedom was found there. It’s what was modeled for me and what all the various religions and philosophies I explored promised. They touted behavior modification, outward change, as key to not only finding freedom but also finding a connection to Spirit. As it turns out I would find that attempting to control all the variables and outcomes in life is bondage. I think I had so much shadow around feeling out of control in my early life that I felt it was up to me to hold everything together. So I was, as many are, very subject to latching onto something external to bring about change that needed to happen on the inside. Then one day events occurred that brought deep darkness with them and that darkness didn’t respond to any of the tools I had accumulated to maintain control or make sense of anything. I had followed directions and still, everything came tumbling down. On that day I raised the white flag. I surrendered. I was done. I had nothing left to give. That was the day I died or something that thought it was me did. That day began a journey, one I am still on, seeking answers from the Source within. I decided to question the narrative my mind had constructed and just allow. Allow people to be who they are. Allow things to be what they are. Allow people to fail. Allow things to fall apart because sometimes they needed to. Allow myself to feel it. All of it. And you know what happened? The sun came up the next morning and for the first time that I could remember in a long, long time I felt free! I felt peace! I am still learning. I am still growing. I don’t think as long as I am on this earth, in this time-space reality, that will ever end. But that’s OK. I don’t have all the answers but I know where to look to find them now. As always, I love what Richard Rudd says about what he calls Gene Key 25: Constriction – Shadow Acceptance – Gift Siddhi - Universal Love “Allowing is very powerful, because it begins with the physical. Whatever we’re experiencing in life – however hard – bring our awareness to our physicality, to the sensations and discomfort in our body. Never mind about our feelings or our thoughts. They’ll come later. We begin with the physical. We just allow our body to feel what it feels.” – Richard Rudd, 64 Ways Blessings!
