Sun in 33, Retreat; Earth in 19, Sensitivity

August 1, 2025

Aloha!
Time to reflect back on the past cycle and gather wisdom!
Ground on our sensitivity….

Sun Transiting Gate 33, Retreat/Privacy
Earth Transiting Gate 19, Sensitivity, Wanting

Are you noticing you’re called to pause and reflect?
The Sun is showering us with energy that says:
TAKE A MOMENT!
LOOK BACK.
WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED FROM YOUR PAST EXPERIENCES…
or from witnessing others?

I have Uranus in Gate 33.
I am continuously called to look again, see what I’ve learned in surprising and unusual ways.
Do you have a favorite way of digesting and garnering wisdom from the past?

I spent years in therapy looking at my past.
But I was mostly looking at it through the lens of the assaults on my ego.
Who done me wrong.
Trying to understand my wounding, my feeling of being a victim of life.

When I met Byron Katie, my looking at the past took a different turn.
A revisioning.
A lot of freedom opened up as I questioned my experiences and beliefs using The Work’s Four Questions and a Turnaround.
Is it true?
Can I absolutely know that it’s true?
What do I feel when I believe that thought?
Who would I be without that thought.
Turn it Around.

Most all of what I was believing about my past turned out not to be true!

Later I looked through the lens of Diamond Logos.
Through the understanding of the Enneagram, and essence, I understood why I behaved in certain ways in stress – and in my heart…and how those were behaviors were connected to loss of connection to aspects of my essential self.

Then came Human Design.

Another lens to discover/explore my experiences in relation to various aspects of my chart including my Profile, my Open Centers, my Incarnation Cross, the Planetary placements in the Gates.

Each piece brought more understanding, more compassion.
NO WONDER I had the life experiences I did!
Inevitable to some degree!

I recently told someone “I used to have horrible childhood. Now I’m so grateful I had the childhood I had – the parents and sibling I had.”

From a quantum physics and Buddhist perspective, Paul Levy has the saying: As Viewed, So Appears. Based in the double slit experiment, we understand it is our viewing of the world that dictates what we see.

This brings me to my work with Pali and the Six Steps.
Pali explains that out of our early wounding we install a self-concept (like I’m not lovable, I don’t matter) that then creates a distortion lens through which we see and experience life.
As we shine the light of awareness on those early conclusions, we see that they were never true, the distortion lens clears, and the quantum field responds.
Yeah.
So as we view our life experiences, so they appear.
As we see the past in new light, we experience it differently.
That in turns shifts how we move forward in life…

TRIPPY!

Is a big deal.
Potentially life changing.
To pause and re-look.
To gain wisdom.

Ra says of this energy:
Active withdrawal and the transformation of a weak position into a strength.
Wisdom and experience is shared through the voice of remembrance.

Richard Rudd calls the Shadow of the 33 — Forgetfulness; the Gift — Mindfulness, the Siddhi — Revelation.

This is a time to be mindful. To open to revelation.

David Clemens recently spoke about each person’s reality being subjective. And that we believe our subjective realities as truth.

This Retreat is a time to take another look at the reality we have perceived.

To open into a new cycle of understanding ourselves and humanity.

Perhaps the lens we’ve been looking through has been distorted by conclusions from childhood wounding?

Perhaps we can have that happy childhood after all?

Earth Transiting Gate 19, Sensitivity/Wanting

This is Tribal Energy.
We’re grounded this week by paying attention to our needs and the needs of the Tribe.
There is an understanding here, that everyone must have our basic needs of food and shelter met in order to thrive spiritually.
You can see in the news this week there is concern about starvation, and a growing feeling: This is not ok!

From Ra:
Gate 19 fuels two essential human mandates: the need to have access to basic resources like food and shelter, and the need for spirit.
These mandates set us up to interact or bond with others in specific ways.

When everyone has enough to eat, a place to live and a god to worship, we experience life as one healthy community, supporting each other and making our unique contribution to the whole.

When there is want or need or great inequality in our tribe, communal support breaks down and nothing works.

We are here to be alert and sensitive to which resources are being withheld from our family, community and eventually the global community.
I also have Venus in Gate 19 in my chart.
I appreciate and value my sensitivity.
I’ve used it as a bodyworker, as a therapist, as an author, as a facilitator.

The challenge with this gate – keep your eye on this this week – is that we can become over focused on our needs and go into addictive behaviors.

The hungry ghost syndrome.
I don’t have enough….
People don’t care about me….

Not pretty!

What’s your experience of these Gate?
This energy?
Can you take some time to pause and reflect?
To shift your perceived reality?
Can you open to your sensitivity?

Pali says the world shows up in relation to how we’re being with ourselves.

How are you being with yourself?

ARE YOU READY TO SEE IF OUR AWAKENING THROUGH HUMAN DESIGN JOURNEY IS YOUR NEXT STEP?
IF SO, SCHEDULE A CLARITY CALL!
