The ‘Daily Impact’ interpretation reflects the impact of the Sun and Earth (70% of the neutrino influence) on what happens in the world as time moves us through the Gates and Lines of the Human Design wheel.
What is offered here is a general frame to the day, especially in terms of external conditioning and potential identification with the power of the Sun’s influence through a particular Gate theme. Also consider what is written about the grounding effect of the Gate in the Earth position of the day. Take note of the Line of the day and think about the quality of the Line and the Rave I Ching cryptic sentence. And, of course, pay attention to any Channels that may be formed on the day, as that Life Force will most certainly be relevant to whatever happens.
For those of you who are more familiar with the Gates and Channels, pay attention to the chart of the day which shows us the detail of the day’s imprint. Look for Gates that may join a ‘hanging’ Gate in your chart, notice the planetary accent it has and ponder upon its relevance to your day. Above all else, ‘The Daily Impact’ is a tool to assist subscribers to witness themselves living their life within ‘The Program’ and becoming more aware by observing the themes unfold.
Keynote: THE GATE OF THE SPIRIT OF THE SELF
Bodygraph position: The G Centre
Quarter: The Quarter of Initiation - Purpose fulfilled through Mind
Keynote: Devotion and dedication to the now.
Exalted: The perfection of the intellect through concentration and focus on what is, rather than, what could be or has been. The innocence of the Self and its protection can only be maintained in the now.
Detriment: A dedication that can never be free of personal motivation and its attendant projections. A lack of innocence in the now that risks protection through projection.
* Here we see a tribal ‘mystical child’ with innocent eyes in an altered state. She is in touch with forces that most Westerners never acknowledge even exist. We have forgotten so much in our rush to become ‘civilised’, and yet there are many planes of existence beyond the material one we assume is ‘reality’. As an example, many of today’s youth are reacquainting themselves with the potentially deep connection between humans and the natural forces through Ayahuasca and other plant medicine experiences. This journey into one’s true nature is not for the faint-hearted; to remain innocent throughout is the secret of landing on your feet after the experience is over.
This transit brings us the theme of Universal Love. This is not a personal love, it is love that is unconditional and can even be the love for inanimate objects, such as a favourite guitar that has been a companion in creating harmonies for decades.
The potential during this transit, at a mystical level, is to retain one’s innocence, no matter what shocks may come our way; Wounds to the Individual spirit are not only possible, they are probable. The challenge is to be able to go beyond the circumstances and centre into oneself, connect to the transcendental perspective of whatever we have encountered, in order to empower our Individual spirit. A mundane example of this could be a sudden shock in your relationships, whether that be a breakup or a death, and the challenge to connect to you in the middle of it. To know that you are still existentially whole and unsullied, reaching to the deep knowing that the vagaries of love, or unexpected death, are part of life’s rich tapestry and must be faced without crushing your spirit.
This is the Gate of the Shaman or the Priestess. They both have the ability to remain innocent in the now, even when facing powerful forces or states of consciousness that threaten to overwhelm their sensibilities. Those of you who know Ra’s story (he had Channel 51/25) may recall how he received the Human Design knowledge from “The Voice” and how he was able to survive the ordeal, withdraw into himself and come back to bring us the information.
So we can expect a variety of experiences based around an uncontrived and spontaneous interaction with the unknown or unexpected. We may experience a deep compassion for those around us, or connect to nature and the magic moments that may elevate us in appreciating how incredible it is to be a consciousness, incarnated in a body.
On a mundane level we may find ourselves appreciating how much we love those ‘special’ objects we have found thus far in our existential journey through life.
It may also be a time when we meet genuine shocks and need to take time to recuperate afterwards.
The 46th Gate, carrying the theme of loving the body, grounds us during this time. This is another Gate of Love and can be a very sensual influence. It is also known as a Gate of Serendipity that brings good fortune if we find ourselves in the right place at the right time. The trick is to not force the body to be anywhere because the Mind thinks it’s a good idea, but to simply be totally in whatever we are experiencing. It can be a time of significant growth that can be experientially enriching.
If you have the 51st Gate the Channel of Initiation becomes the theme. So at such a time you may find yourself wanting to bring something new to those around you. There may be a stronger competitive urge within to prove you are ‘the best’. You may even find yourself intimated into something completely new that changes your experience of life forever. This is a mystical Channel and as such, the potential exists for you to experience challenges that you can overcome courageously and find yourself re-starting your life again anew.
This is the Line of the ‘Hermit’. So this may well be a day when we would rather be alone and in our own self-motivation. It may be a day of ‘pottering’ doing a little bit of one thing and then naturally moving onto something else and the whole day can go by quickly.
The 2nd Line carries with it the tendency to be unaware and naïve. So it may be a day when ‘the rug gets pulled out from under us’. Or, more simply put, a day when we can have encounters we never planned or expected.
The 2nd Line is also known as the Line of the ‘Natural’. So this can be a time when there can be a smoothness in displaying certain natural gifts we may possess, due to the Resonance (2nd Line Gates) or Harmonies (5th Line Gates) in our Design.
The 2nd Line also has a youthful connotation to it, so today may be a time when we are conditioned to be more playful. Notice in children the astonishing natural gift they have of moving rapidly from being upset one minute to laughing and forgetting about the upset the next. The fluidity of this natural influence can make work become a playful experience.
There is also the possibility of wanting to be naturally ‘open’ to others, like a child interested in new people or, as in accordance with the hermit theme, it can be a day of closing off to others, bringing the drawbridge up and preferring to spend time in your own space.
The 2nd Line has a reputation for saying, “I just can’t be bothered!” This is partly because of the self-motivated aspect of the Line. It is also because others can see into the 2nd Line gifts that we may possess in our Design, but we don’t know it. So people may repeatedly be telling us we’re brilliant at this or that and we just don’t want to know because we don’t think it’s anything special, or we don’t feel called to look at it at that time.
There is also the theme of being shy or bold. So we may want to avoid the ‘limelight’ or we may seek it out because of a mission we’re on at the moment.
The theme of being ‘called’ is inherent to today. 2nd Lines are basically ‘waiting for the call’. So there is also the possibility that we will be invited or shown or encounter something today that really ‘floats our boat’, and sets us in a new direction for which we are ideally suited.
Remember this 2nd Line theme is the transit of today. Just because it is affecting us doesn’t mean we should automatically follow ‘the call’, or hermit ourselves away. Our decisions lead to the kind of life we live. Decisions that are correct, according to Human Design, come from living by one’s Strategy and Authority.
Get to know the themes of the Lines as they come by as regular cycles throughout the weeks and months. As you track them, even occasionally, you will become more and more aware of the Program within which we live. Don’t let the conditioning of the day take you away from following your Strategy and Authority. Just look deeper into what is happening to you and around you.
Take this transit as an opportunity to see these themes occur within and around you. As you see them you will then have the opportunity to consider that you yourself may indeed be a pattern in a larger Program, as described by The Human Design System. If you can verify the truth of the transiting Gates in your life today, then I trust it will remind you to come back to following your Strategy and Authority - for that is the way to play the game. It is the way to wake up mechanically and experience what it is like to flow along in your life as yourself, without the resistance that comes from trying to live a conditioned life in a ‘Not-self’ world.
As we notice the daily impact upon our own Human Design imprint during the day, we naturally grow in our awareness of ourselves and the adventure of what it is to be alive in a world that is constantly conditioning us.
Those who are Reflectors can align to the daily transit, paying particular attention to the drive of the Moon. The rest of us, Manifestors, Generators and Projectors are here to resist the conditioning in terms of our decision-making and learn from it to increase our wisdom.
UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) is a time standard based on Earth's rotation. It is a modern continuation of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), i.e., the mean solar time on the Prime Meridian at Greenwich, England. Check the time in your location against UT to calculate precisely when this transit will impact you. For instance, if you live in New York you will be 5 hours behind UT.
