Today, January 20, 2024 at 1:07 AM EST, the sun entered the sign of Aquarius.

While the sun traverses through the gate of Aquarius - gates 60, 41, 19, 13, 49, 30 - light will be cast upon the themes of uniqueness, personal freedom, and innovation. The light (aka awareness) will help you see how the archetypes of Aquarius serve your higher purpose (aka your conscious sun gate).

And, since the transits affect the collective, there will be mirrors everywhere, revealing the golden and taboo shadows of Aquarius and where your specific opportunity for expansion is.

Some of the golden shadows of Aquarius are:

• reforming
• independent
• eccentric
• unconventional
• innovative
• inventive

Some of the taboo shadows of Aquarius are:

• disorganized
• anarchist
• deviant
• erratic
• unpredictable

The card I drew for Aquarius season was:

Card: 7 of Swords; Futility

Keywords: Journey by Land; in character untrustworthy -- Partial Success. Yielding when victory is in grasp, as if the last reserves of strength were used up. Inclination to lose when on the point of gaining, through not continuing the effort. Love of abundance, fascinated by display, given to compliments, affronts and insolences, and to spy upon others, and to spy upon others. Inclined to betray confidences, not always intentionally. Rather vacilitory and unreliable.

(Not that the keyword list is from ​Understanding Aleister Crowley's Thoth Tarot by Lon Milo DuQuette​ (<-affiliate link))

Magickal Correspondence:

• Moon in Aquarius
• 20* to 30* Aquarius
• Formula: 7 (Netzach) of Swords (Yetzirah) + Moon in Aquarius = Futility
• 7 (Netzach) = Emotional Solar Plexus = Right Hand Path of the Hindu Solar Plexus Chakra

OMFG.

In another episode of you can't make this shit up, this card is just so spot on in so many ways.

For one, this is the first time that the card I pulled corresponded to the sign.

For the record, while I do understand the gates and centers of the chart like the back of my hand, the correspondences on the Thoth Tarot deck is a whole other story. Maybe one day.

It has only been since Cancer season of 2023 that I've interpreted the cards this way (aka the way they were originally intended) and then combined that with the Human Design chart.

But, what I can say as that I was typing up the keywords description, I could feel the Aqaurius-ness of it all.

Then, when I came across the word "insolence," I had to ask Alexa what that word meant.

I had a little chuckle when she said "having a resistance to authority."

I laughed because one, I was asking a robot, which is oh, so Aquarius. But, also, because the Aquarian archetype is known for it's anarchy and rebellion.

But then, the layers just kept coming.

If we read this part of the description again:

The connection between the emotional solar plexus in the Human Design chart, which is sphere 7 on the Kabbalah Tree of Life, is so clear. And this card in particular connected to the moon and the moon being the way we relate to our inner world.

I immediately think about the advice often given to those with a defined solar plexus. They are told not to make decisions from a high or low point on the emotional wave.

And one of the things I've observed inside the Human Design Map portal, and everywhere really, is that SO MANY people give up on what is actually true for them when they are feeling "low." Us humans have a tendency to think that "feeling bad" is an indicator that we are on the "wrong track."

But nothing is actually going wrong.

In fact, as I teach inside the map portal, real alchemy begins when the shit hits the fan.

The moments when it feels like you should just give up or that the Universe is out to get you or that you are unworthy of your deepest desires, those are the very moments that you absolutely MUST stay the course.

And not because you are being "tested." Being tested implies that it is somehow personal or that you have something to prove.

But the Divine does not work that way. Alchemy - the language of the Divine - does not work that way.

Remember, the magnetic monopole in the G center ONLY attracts. It does not repel.

In other words, you are always moving towards your higher purpose. You can never be on the wrong path. And your soul is not suffering.

The mind karma that says otherwise is an illusion.

You are the Divine, playing a game of hide and seek with yourself.

Which means that as you go through life, you are forgetting and remembering.

Forgetting means that you will get trapped in the illusion sometimes. It isn't supposed to always feel like bliss.

Because, like the waves of the ocean, the highs and lows of emotion come and go. They aren't proof of anything.

And, as we enter Aquarius season, approach 2027, and deepen into the Age of Aquarius, it is vital that we remember that.

No matter how much Aquarius is in your chart, you would not be reading this email right now if you didn't highly value making an authentic contribution in the world, living on purpose, and using your inner wisdom as your north star.

You would not be here if you weren't on a mission to lead a revolution of authenticity, to break the karmic bonds that keep you devoted to other people's opinions, and to let go of the bullshit that clouds your view.

And that transformation 100% requires that you not make shitty ass meaning from your moment to moment experiences. It requires that you take a step back, put on your Alchemist goggles, and see the opportunity for expansion, wholeness, and deepening of purpose.

Every moment is that. And to believe anything else is futile.

Here's to a rebellious AF Aquarius season.

Until we meet again,
