Will you choose scarcity or abundance?
We're transiting Gate 55 from Feb 19 – Feb 24
WILL YOU CHOOSE SCARCITY OR ABUNDANCE?
What does the Human Spirit mean to you? Could it be the non-physical part of you that is the seat of your emotions and character?
So, if abundance in your life is a function of spirit … then would how you’re feeling determine if you feel abundance or scarcity in your life?
The Solar Transit through the Gate of Spirit is emotional, personal and it operates in a wave. It can send you riding the wave of hope to pain and back again.
Well, isn’t that what life is all about?
Can you expand your consciousness to feel the simple joy that comes from trusting the unfolding events in your life? This type of joy and wonderment can’t be taken from you.
Are you holding on to scarcity or abundance in your life now? Can you make peace with your path and trust that what’s unfolding will lead you where you need to be?
After all, life’s only constant is change.
The grounding energy is a very creative and a genetic imperative to produce (or reproduce). You can be your most creative when you’re melancholic or at a down point in your emotional wave. Many great artists created their most famous works while in a depressed state.
Melancholy can be your muse.
A thoughtful word to those around you when you’re not in the mood to be social will help them to not personalize the emotional energy that they may feeling from you.
Be mindful of the cycle of increase and decrease. It’s possible to find peace even when things are declining. Everything is moving exactly as it should in cycles.
The sun will rise again in the morning.
While you can operate from scarcity or abundance … the way of virtue is called Feng in the I’Ching. Feng is the zenith of abundance, where something is so full that it overflows.
In the image of your overflowing inner reserves, you’re not made empty even while you give; this is the way to a kingdom of abundance.
The quality of your spirit resides in how you’re feeling now, moment-by-moment.
Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don’t resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like. ~ Lao Tzu
Love Yourself,

What are Solar Transits?
In Human Design, Solar Transits reflect the impact the Sun is having on humanity as it moves through the Gates and Lines of the Mandala (64 Gates and 384 Lines). Transits are potentials that you may see in others and the world around you, and, may become a part of your experience as well.
Not everyone experiences these energies … and if we do, we experience them filtered through our own unique Human Design.

I am a Human Design teacher, guide, and survivor whose path to purpose was forged through profound transformation. In 2012, a Stage 4 lung cancer diagnosis shattered the life I knew—and became the unexpected beginning of a deeper awakening. What followed was a journey through illness, the unraveling of a long marriage, and the quiet rebuilding of a self I had never fully met. Human Design found me in the midst of that unraveling—during a time of deep searching, blackouts of identity, and a hunger to remember who I really was. What began as a personal tool for survival and self-reclamation soon became a lifelong path. Human Design gave me language for what I had always felt but couldn’t explain. It helped me understand my energy, my wounds, my gifts—and how to live in alignment with my true nature.
Today, I teach Human Design not as a system of labels or rules, but as a living, breathing map back to the Self. My work is rooted in lived experience—because I know what it’s like to lose your way, and what it takes to come home to yourself. I specialize in guiding others through times of transition, awakening, and reinvention—helping them understand the unique blueprint they were born with, so they can navigate life with clarity, self-trust, and deep compassion. My gift lies in transmuting adversity into wisdom—and walking with others as they remember who they truly are.
