Lunar Influences
Sunday ~ Capricorn – find your center by focusing on diligence and following the rules. Find comfort in the familiar and with a regular routine.
Monday ~ Capricorn until Aquarius at 3:09 AM PDT – take an intellectual focus today and share what you learn with others and a sextile between the Moon and Mars should provide the energy for initiation.
Tuesday ~ Aquarius – it may be time to explore new career opportunities that provide both intellectual and emotional fulfillment. A quincunx between the Moon and the Sun suggests challenges in that regard and you may need to reassess your manner of expression.
Wednesday ~ Aquarius until 11:13 AM PDT – if feeling emotional today, take time for reflection and seek a still point within to find your inner balance. A trine between the Moon and Mercury fosters easy communication, but do avoid any manipulation of others.
Thursday ~ Pisces – allow your imagination to inspire you today! A conjunct between the Moon and Ceres promises close relationships with women in your life. Nurture self and others today.
Friday ~ Pisces until Aries 10:05 PM PDT – although the transition into Aries concludes at the end of the day, allow the Aries energy to motivate you if emotions are steady. Otherwise, stay present in the moment and wait for tomorrow to chart a new course.
Saturday ~ Aries – rise to the occasion and accept challenges that come your way today. Spend time on your own if your own or the energies of others become too chaotic. The Moon conjunct Mars fosters impulsive behavior so be sure you look at the entire situation before acting.
I Ching/Human Design Influences
Human Design involves the blending of the planetary positions with the I Ching. The I Ching consists of sixty-four guas (hexagrams), each one containing six lines with their own specific message. You can see from the above Rave Mandela how the hexagrams or guas are arranged around the chart with the bodygram in the center.
Most planets, particularly the outer planets as well as the Sun, remain in roughly the same place, changing only their line numbers throughout the week. The Moon, however, changes both its Gate and Line number daily. In addition, as planets move, energetic channels may form between the gates and when they do, I’ll include them because they can provide underlying supportive energies which may be helpful.
As you can see, while some gates remain the same, their lines do change reflecting the subtlety found in the six lines of each I Ching hexagram. While the overall message may be the same, each line suggests another perspective or focus. Another aspect to note is that the outer planets, as well as the Moon’s Nodes, tend to remain roughly the same throughout the week and sometimes the month as well to provide an underlying perspective or foundation to the information.
The Nodes remain at Gate 15.1 Duty (North Node) and 10.1 Modesty (South Node) all week indicating the energy present to confront challenges and to understand a shared sense of purpose. Jupiter and Saturn remain in their same Gates (61 and 60 respectively) reinforcing positive expressions of leadership and collaboration. And the only active channel this week is the Channel of Awareness (Gates 60-24).
5 July 2020 – move easily around obstacles today, even if it means going it alone. As the country still struggles with the simple understanding of wearing protection, remain vigilant in protecting self and others, irrespective of their own actions. Firmly establish boundaries with others.
6 July 2020 – get to the bottom of any misunderstandings today so that you can move forward in shared purpose with others as you express wisdom over reaction. However don’t compromise what you know to be true just to satisfy someone else’s ego.
7 July 2020 – work behind the scenes to find clarification and search for the underlying cause or message. Avoid frustration if it seems you’re getting nowhere because opposing forces may be at work. Remain positive and away from others who wish to thwart progress.
8 June 2020 – a momentum is felt today with many feeling as if we’re at the last resort of some kind and it’s time now to make a decision about the path forward. While restraint may have been necessary in the past, the proper use of action going forward could make all the difference in a positive outcome. It’s time the chaos ended and the effect of dark forces eliminated.
9 June 2020 – seek an informal channel if the situation at hand still lacks clarity. There may be more than meets the eye and someone with more experience may provide a solution. Until clarity returns, avoid impulsive action that may interfere with a successful outcome.
10 June 2020 – although a situation may seem confusing, maintain your values and individuality. The Earth is presently at Gate 54.4 Enlightenment/Endarkenment, in the energy of the rune Dagaz where one phase ends and another begins. Reassess if necessary before proceeding on the path.
11 July 2020 – remain assertive today, allowing your generous and thoughtful nature to shine. Know that by putting the safety and security of others first, you protect yourself as well. Adopt a service to others attitude and ignore the naysayers, particularly the current occupant of the White House.
