Today the Sun transits Gate 47, the Gate of Realization, a.k.a. Oppression, in the 2nd Line Hermit/Natural. How is this energetic frequency influencing you? What can you learn from it before it passes?
“Busy hands and a busy mind help tame the depression beast.”
—Carol Blake
This is not a good day for a presidential debate, but here we are.
Paranoia, perseveration, and the potential for anxious rumination are high at this time.
Keep it at bay, and make it smoothly through this day,
by leaning into the high expression of the energy that’s available to us,
which is coming from the Sun as it shines rays of the 2nd Line Hermit/Natural through Gate 47, the Gate of Oppression/Realization:
Get busy. Keep moving. Don’t let the paranoia take hold.
I don’t always recommend being “productive,” as that term can be a dog-whistle for Sacral conditioning,
and it can be very disempowering to my non-Sacral friends who get shamed their whole lives for “not being more productive” and “not working hard enough,”
and who are waking up now, in a new era of self-awareness,
only to realize that they are far-beyond exhausted and need to make up for many hours’ worth of lost naps,
and to disentangle themselves from the belief that they are less-than for not “doing” more,
and come to terms with the truth that they simply weren’t designed for productive doing-doing-doing all the dang time.
But today…is a different story.
There’s a lot of power and frenetic energy moving through the air that we can use to navigate this unstable, sorta mystifying moment.
Not putting it to work could land us in the low vibe.
Quick example to illustrate:
Today would’ve been my grandmother’s birthday if she were alive. So, while I don’t know for sure if her Conscious Sun was Gate 47 in the 2nd Line, I’m taking a cue from her legacy right now and assuming she had this potential for paranoia and anxiety embedded deep inside her bones:
Mimi never stopped moving. She worked like a dog, mostly without pay but always with a smile on her face.
(I’m not suggesting this was the ideal way to live, but it was the only way a poor Irish gal whose parents and sibling died in the flu epidemic of 1918 could figure out how to function in a world where the cards were stacked against her.)
She never complained, never went Negative Nellie about anything, though she’d have had every right to.
Orphaned at age 4, raised in a home where she was resented and mistreated, educated only as far as the 8th grade, suffered through the Great Depression, married to an alcoholic with an explosive temper and who couldn’t keep a job…
Nevertheless, Mayme always kept her cool, and never lost her temper, her serenity or her sense of purpose.
She drove a delivery truck to make ends meet, and hung wallpaper in fancy houses to put food on the table. She volunteered at the daycare center at the county courthouse, helped out at Meals on Wheels, went to church several times a week. And she baked, endlessly and gloriously. And she cleaned, constantly and fastidiously.
She stitched baby doll clothes together and doted on her grandkids any chance she could get. Went to Bingo with her girlfriends at the high rise, helped neighbors in need, volunteered for the Senior Olympics and supported so many old-lady fundraisers it was hard to keep track. Right up until the very end of her days.
Today, I’m going to honor my grandma, to whom I am spiritually, ancestrally, eternally connected, by keeping my mind, body and spirit occupied.
How about you?
What mundane tasks around your house, office, community, school, garage or yard need to be tended to that you’ve been putting off?
What projects could use a little more detail, attention, editing, refinement, updating, overhauling, or just some more bling?
Take care of that, today.
If you’re not facing a packed schedule or a heavy work load, then maybe clean your house from top to bottom. Help a neighbor out. Volunteer at the food bank or go register some new voters.
Now is the time to put any high-strung, busy, mental energy to work.
Funnel that power through your hands and feet, and let it flow outward.
If you start to feel unhinged, get busy.
Bonus Points:
Look to your Earth Gates in your Human Design chart for clues on how you’re uniquely hardwired to stay grounded. (Reach out for a 30-minute Clarity Session on how to do that or to learn what your Earth Gates are.)
If you’re high-vibing it, Realizations and epiphanies may be streaming in here and there.
(I’ve experienced a few big eye-openers in the last 24 hours that have changed the way I’m looking at things. Super helpful.)
And you’ll recognize the value of keeping mind, body and spirit strenuously, healthily engaged.
Nevertheless, our Collective propensity for buying into panic is just too high right now.
Watch for more conspiracy theories to emerge and spread.
Listen for people fretting over nothing-burgers.
Help them calm down. Distract. Occupy. Get them to process that nervous energy out, physically.
Notice whether you, yourself, are feeling stuck, indecisive, paranoid, weighed down by Confusion, incapable of moving forward on anything or like your mind is fixating on a problem like it’s a broken record:
these are red flags that you’re likely struggling in the low vibe of this frequency of 47.2.
The best way out? Be like Mimi, or do what Michelle Obama said: DO SOMETHING.
This, too, shall pass.
Hang in there, folks. I’m rooting for you!
