Gate 41 - The Gate of Contraction

Happy New Human Design Year!

As the sun enters gate 41 in the Human Design Mandala, it is time again for a new rave year. A new solar cycle is starting. We are beginning with metaphorically going into labor to give birth to a new project, a new relationship, or simply a new cycle filled with whatever crosses our paths in the coming year. 

This gate is in the root center of our bodygraph, meaning we can experience it as a pressure to act. We can feel it as a pressure to experience life and emotions, what it fully means to be a human being. 

When we have this gate activated in us and we live it out in balance, we remain open-minded and hopeful. We can more clearly see what is important to us, and we can take on whatever curveball life throws at us. 

And we all know that life is not always a ray of light, love, and laughter; we sometimes experience darker times as well. When we are in our not-self, or an imbalance, this gate when activated can give us more unrealistic expectations, we get so dreamy and fantasizing that we float high up into the sky and beyond, without seeing what is slightly realistic to achieve. There is nothing wrong with having dreams, but make sure that you check in on what is achievable for you in your current situation. 

Are you curious to know if you have gate 41 activated in your chart?

Happy New Human Design Year! May it be a great new cycle for you and your loved ones.
