The Sun is in Gate 56 of Stimulation
Gate 56 | 19 JUL 2024 - 24 JUL 2024
26˚ 22’ 30” Cancer through 02˚ 00’ 00” Leo
Not all who wander are lost.
Gate 56 is the Gate of Stimulation, originating from the throat center. Closing Cancer and opening Leo, this gate is about storytelling. Also known as The Wanderer, this gate engenders color, drama, and captivating expression to the mental process.
The Throat is a center of communication and manifestation. Here I am not referring to the new age concept of “think yourself into your desired reality” (a dubious, highly misunderstood thing to me). Instead I am referring to the process by which something unseen is made real. Concretization.
Reflect back to last week while the Sun transited Gate 62 of Detail, another gate of the Throat. This mechanic transforms logical thought into language, driving awareness of the future. This week, Gate 56 is a mirror of that process, but rather than logic, we have the abstract. We speak not of what we think, but instead of what we believe.
Stories. From hope to despair, it is not about a solution, a formula, or a fact. Story is a journey meant to enrich the collective. Under this frequency, what the mind sees and what the eyes see are transformed under the illusions of the past.
Here the mind readily wanders, dancing through memory, recalling meaning, forever curious for new ideas. Consciousness seeks experience and stimulation through the colorful expression of the human experience. And the search itself for that enrichment is more valuable than the end result.
During the time frame of this transit, have you been moved to laughter or tears over the stories exchanged?
This is the effect of the Sun in Gate 56. The place where the waters of Cancer meet the passion of Leo.
Gate 56 is grounded by the Earth in Gate 60 - Limitation, where the moon soon joins for the Full Moon in Capricorn on July 21st. Gate 60 originates from the root, and reflects the pressure for change in the fact of restraints. Also known as the Gate of Acceptance, an imparting lesson of this week is abject realism - a stabilizing floor for the curiosities of Gate 56.
Do you have Gate 56 in your chart? You may notice the capacity to be distracted or caught in your head due to the nature of your colorful inner world. You may also recognize a gift to captivate attention with your way of expression. Not simply to amuse, this frequency grows to enrich the spirit through the sharing of experience and beliefs.
If you have the harmonic Gate 11 (Ideas) in your chart, you are under the conditioning field of the Channel of Curiosity this week. This is a social week in which you may find yourself stimulating other’s thought processes. Notice how what you share engages, teaches, or entertains.
