your MAGNETISM

We are now moving into the subtle realms of the emotional body for the next several modules in The Meeting Ground. This is not meant to be a mental journey (or a rushed one) but an embodied one, one connected to the energetics, to the feels. To work in this energy we need to be able hold a compassionate container for ourselves, to parent, forgive, nurture and be gentle when needed.

UNCONSCIOUS MOON

Here we are visiting the energy of our Unconscious Moon. You can scroll down to see where to locate it and then find the gate description here + read the key in the Gene Keys book (if you have it). Our entire Unconscious Design is calculated about three months prior to our birth date. It is the hidden side, the underlying influence of our truth. Jungian analyst Gerhard Adler described the unconscious as “possessing a superior knowledge of our real needs.”

With the energy of the moon we have a constant waxing and waning, an ever changing, ever flowing energy. This energy in our design has to do with the roots of our human creativity, our emotional body and our sexuality. It illustrates why we magnetize someone to us at one point in our lives only to repel them at another.

The same way the moon is magnetic to the tides and the bodies of fluid that exist within our container, our frequency, our unique vibration, is constantly attracting and repelling people, opportunities, lessons, etc.. In Human Design our magnetism is deeply and profoundly tied to our emotions as is the watery energy of the Moon.

With attraction in the Unconscious Moon, we are mainly talking about our significant relationships and this can be positive or negative, as long as they seemingly have influence. We are here to take the journey through our inner landscape but it is our connections that will often be the catalysts for this transformation.

We cannot always quantify what it is that attracts us to certain people and not others, that turns us off or on. We are often attracted to the very thing that does not serve us. And a lot of this has to do with our Design. We do actually, in effect, complete each other. We define energies in each other, making access to new energies constant. We bridge each others splits, making each other feel more whole. We light up each others centers. This can be positive or negative depending on our level of attachment and grasping for it, our dependency and our autonomy.

And, when we’re attracting patterns that do not serve our highest good, we can look to our frequency and what we are broadcasting out into the world. In doing this we understand ourselves on a deeper, more profound level. We unpack our own patterns of wounding.

gates

shadow

The Shadow of this energy is about our SACRED WOUND. We all carry through suffering + karma passed down through our ancestral line, woven into the fabric of our DNA.

This Shadow is not about right or wrong (no Shadow is); it’s simply that operating constantly through Shadow will lead to a default lack of fulfillment in ones life. This wound is tied to our sexuality and when we heal this wound its positive effects ripple into all areas of our life. We put out and attract higher vibrations.

With this Shadow we also want to think of them in the context of if the description fits us or the people we attract. We can blame our partners for our pattern when in reality they are just a projection of what we’re calling in. If we’re calling it to us, what are the lessons we’ve yet to learn? How might it offer us a deeper level of healing within our own vibration?

These shadows reveal the inner work we will repeat over and over until we have fully integrated and accepted it. This comes from fully opening our heart to this challenge. Every time we recognize and become aware of a Shadow and we accept and embrace it, we unlock another gift within our DNA.

This isn’t something to be fixed and then move on. These are the challenges we face over and over in our life. The healing that isn’t linear but a spiral, we circle back around, heal on a deeper level, unlock another gift. The more we continue to open and accept, the deeper we go and the more shadows and gifts we are able to reach.

This is the embodiment of as below, so above; as within, so without. The internal unpacking is represented in our outer reality.

gift

As you work with your Shadow, it is important to hold its Gift (and Highest Vibration) in the same container.

When we form relationships we are combining auras, energies. In Human Design we are actually completing each other in a way. We attract people with defined gates on the other end of ours (making channels) and with centers that we do not have defined. We draw to us those that will bring more consistent energy, activating different archetypes within. When we combine energies sometimes it is comforting, sexual, friendly, challenging. Many times we get to tap into gifts we wouldn’t otherwise have consistent access to.

For the purposes of this work, see how much you can shift your perspective to view your relationships as an opportunity for your own evolution and up-leveling. Keep committing to opening your heart and bringing awareness, knowing that a lot of creative energy is released when we combine auric energies.

In understanding this energy in our charts we become more aware of our own part, we rewire our own reactionary patterns, we take responsibility, and we surrender, unlocking the higher vibrational gifts.

The highest vibration is essentially attained enlightenment. It is said that the act of seeking enlightenment is still a form of shadow. I touch briefly on the highest vibration b/c I think it’s a seed we plant toward spiritual realization. It’s not something we try to attain. When we reach for it, we are playing into Shadow.

With this energy you reach the highest vibration through EMBODIMENT.

Lines

The line for this energy is the number after the decimal point of the gate. So if the number in the fifth box down of the red left column says 44.2, then your magnetism is in gate 44, line 2. The corresponding line colors your inner narrative. These lines have to do with how you react or respond to your dharma in this life. We can use the mirror of our relationships to help us transmute our Shadows to Gifts.

Line 1

Emptiness vs. Fullness of experience. We can have sexual encounters that are satisfying in the moment but in essence empty. We leave them feeling scarcity instead of abundance. There is a lack of connection, a lack of heart.

The opposite of that is fulfillment. And I don’t take this to mean, as many in this field do, that sex is empty without love or wholesomeness. We can express creativity, tap into enjoyment, and connect with another human, and deeply with ourselves without it being love or needing to “go somewhere”. That is up to the individual. Above all this energy is looking for a positive feeling as a result of ones sexual experiences. It is important to feel they have gained and not lost. And when in alignment we attract experiences that leave us feeling satisfied, feeling pleasure, feeling lit up.
