WHEN WILL IT MAKE SENSE?

Now we enter a Solar Transit whose energy transports us into the realm of mind.

Like a carousel that never stops turning, the ever-spinning wheel of life never ends. Nothing is ever complete without the inkling of a new beginning stirring inside.

This may bring a pressure to make sense of the past. We look back, reflect on our experiences, and search for the meaning hidden within the confusion.

And grounding this transit is Gate 63.

Here, doubt asks its questions.

Is this true? Can I be certain? What if I am wrong?

Together, these two gates can create a powerful pressure in the mind. One looks back, searching for meaning in what has been. The other questions what we think we know.

Have you noticed that when you look back and don’t find the meaning, it can drive you a little bit mad?

Do you revisit the experience over and over, trying to make sense of it? And when doubt enters, do you question everything you thought you understood?

The harder you try, the harder it gets.

Like Chinese handcuffs that tighten as you apply more pressure, your mind can relax when you release the tension and simply let your thoughts be.

This transit’s energy is about giving yourself the time for things to become clear. Being with uncertainty. Being patient enough to wait for the ‘aha’ moment rather than trying to force it to arrive.

With the Sun in Gate 64, in the Quarter of Bonding and Relationships, there may also be a desire to make sense of how you bond and relate to others in your life.

Perhaps you find yourself reflecting on a relationship or an experience from the past, searching for its meaning. Perhaps doubt makes you question what you thought you knew.

But in nature, and in life, disorder and confusion usually precede order and clarity.

The wheel of change keeps spinning, always evolving yet always staying the same. Life’s experiences are seamless.

Can you be patient with what you don’t yet understand?

Can you allow doubt to ask its questions without demanding an immediate answer?

As the end unfolds, open up to a new beginning.
