🌀 What This Energy Is Stirring in Me

There’s been a shift stirring in me for a while now—a quiet but persistent sense that something in my work wants to evolve. Not because I’m dissatisfied, but because something inside is whispering, What else is possible? What haven’t I experienced yet? That’s the flavor of Human Design Gate 35—restless, curious, expansive—and I’m definitely feeling it this week, especially in the way I’m thinking about my podcast.

For the first time ever, I’ll be the one being interviewed on my own show.
It was Jess who suggested it. She said, “What if I interviewed you and helped you tell your story?” And even though I’ve told it before—many times, in many ways—something about that invitation lit something up in me. Because the truth is, I come alive in conversation. Jess is one of those rare people who knows how to draw the real story out of you. She’s been a gift in my life, and saying yes to this idea just felt… right.

But of course, saying yes also brings up questions: What is this shift pointing to? What wants to change? I’ve been playing with ideas for shorter episodes, compilations of past interviews by theme, new formats that repurpose what I’ve already created. And while all of that feels exciting, it also feels like a lot—especially in a year where my word is simplify.

So I’m sitting in that space between the spark of new ideas and the rhythm of what’s actually sustainable. I’m noticing how this energy is asking me to reimagine without overloading. And that’s exactly what this week’s gates are about.

☀️ Sun in Gate 35: The Drive to Experience

In Traditional Human Design, Gate 35 is called Progress—but not the kind you measure in milestones. This is the gate of emotional evolution through lived experience. It carries a hunger for something different, something more. It wants to know what it feels like to try, to fail, to explore. And when it’s active, we may feel that longing surface as boredom, restlessness, or a deep curiosity about what else life could offer.

Gene Key 35 describes this as a journey from the Shadow of Hunger (bored, manic) to the Gift of Adventure to the Siddhi (ultimate expression) of Boundlessness. It’s about moving from needing something new to becoming open to everything.

For me, this gate is showing up in the form of creative questions. Not from dissatisfaction—but from that spacious place of what else is possible? The call to change my podcast isn’t about fixing something that’s broken. It’s about honoring the natural cycle of evolution in my work and letting myself explore a new way of showing up. 

🌍 Earth in Gate 5: Attuning to Rhythm

Balancing all that movement is the grounding energy of Gate 5—a gate that reminds us life has its own rhythm. In Traditional HD, it’s known as Patterns.

Gene Key 5 moves us from the Shadow of Impatience to the Gift of Patience to the Siddhi of Timelessness. It’s a beautiful reminder that waiting is not passive. It’s about being fully present with what is, and letting life unfold on its own schedule.

Gate 5 energy teaches us to notice the rituals that shape us. To feel into what’s repeating and what’s shifting. It can be challenging when we’re out of sync with others—especially when we’re trying to move faster or slower than the collective pace—but it also shows us how to find peace in our own rhythm.

This week, that grounding has been so important. The transit happened to start on a Sunday—a day when I normally try to spend time with my husband. My life has a rhythm too, and honoring it is part of the work. So I started writing this blog Sunday evening (my husband goes to bed early, and I’m a bit of a night owl) and now it is Monday evening and I’m still finishing it up.

It’s making me think about how I can structure my weeks better to honor my commitment to these blogs yet not sacrifice the other experiences of life. I often feel these are best written in the experience of the Transit so sometimes  these will come in a bit later than others. I used to think I should stay consistent about getting them out in the early hours of the transit but now I am honoring my own rhythm. 

🌊 How These Energies Are Interacting

It’s a bit of a paradox, isn’t it? Gate 35 asks, What else? Gate 5 answers, When it’s time. That’s the dynamic this transit has us all navigating.

The idea of repurposing older podcast content is exciting. Imagine a collection of voices from Projectors, or a theme-based reflection from guests who all share about their undefined Identity Centers. That’s the Gate 35 part of me—hungry to offer something new. But the Gate 5 part is gently tapping me on the shoulder saying, You’re going to have to learn a lot of new editing skills for this.  … don’t overload your plate. 

 Because here’s the thing: I don’t want to just add more. I want what I do next to be an evolution. Replacing the old with something new. I want it to feel aligned, sustainable, even easeful. That’s what simplify means to me this year. Not “do less,” but do what matters—in the right rhythm.

🔮 Other Transits & Amplifying Influences

🌊 Channel of Transitoriness (35–36)

This emotional wave has been pulsing in and out of our collective experience for a while now—but this week, it returns with a powerful surge.

The Channel of Transitoriness is activated once again—this time by the Sun in Gate 35 and the North Node still holding steady in Gate 36. This isn’t a new pattern. It’s one we’ve been living with, off and on, for years—ever since Neptune entered Gate 36 back in March 2022.

That date holds personal meaning for me. It was around three years ago—quietly, tentatively—that I started to imagine what it would look like to build a business rooted in Human Design. It was just a flicker at first. I didn’t know what form it would take, or how I’d get there. But the desire was there. The sense that I was being pulled toward something deeper, something more aligned. And I followed that pull—through experiments and pivots, wins and doubts—until it became the work I’m doing today.

So this week, as the Sun lights up Gate 35, giving us the full channel 35-36 again, it feels… full circle. Like I’m being invited to pause and reflect: What was the longing underneath that initial vision? What kind of experiences have I been chasing since that moment? And what would it mean to reorient—not from hunger, but from adventure?

When Neptune was in Gate 36, the energy was foggy and emotional. There were no clear answers—just a persistent yearning. Then as the North Node took over, that longing became more directional—pulling us toward collective growth. And now, as the Sun—the most powerful influence in the neutrino stream—illuminates Gate 35 it completes the channel and brings the theme right to the surface.

After years of this channel being intermittently active, we’re about to go nearly six months without it. Which makes this final surge feel even more potent—like a last big nudge from the universe: Have you really looked at what you’ve been craving? Are you going to honor what you’ve been circling back to again and again?

♃ Jupiter in Gate 15: Activating the Channel of Rhythm (5–15)

Jupiter expands whatever it touches. So as it moves into Gate 15—joining Earth in Gate 5—it creates a full channel: the 5–15 Channel of Rhythm.

This energy is collective, powerful, and deeply attuned to the flow of life. Gate 5 holds the steady beat. Gate 15 adds flair and variation. Think of it like a dance:

• Gate 5 is the metronome, holding down the rhythm.
• Gate 15 is the spontaneous groove that gives the dance its flair.

Together, they create a vibrant expression of flow.
And here’s the thing—this energy is not about everyone dancing the same way. It’s about everyone finding their own rhythm.

I’ve been thinking about this in terms of my own creative process. I’ve built a podcast with a steady rhythm. But now? I’m feeling called to experiment. To break out. To do a spontaneous spin on the dance floor.

Maybe it lands. Maybe it doesn’t. That’s not the point.

The point is to stay present with the music. To trust the beat. To remember that what’s sustainable for me might look very different from what’s sustainable for someone else.

🔥 How This Energy Might Be Showing Up

You may feel a deep urge to shake things up—try something new, express something different, or finally take action on an idea that’s been circling for a while.

Or you might feel emotionally charged without knowing exactly why. The 35–36 channel can bring emotional pressure to create change, even when the timing isn’t right.

You could find yourself thinking about old dreams or forgotten desires—and wondering if now’s the time to bring them back.

Or you may become more aware of your rhythms: what feels aligned, what feels forced, and where you’re syncing (or clashing) with the world around you.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, scattered, or a bit tangled up emotionally—that’s not a failure. It’s a sign to slow down and listen more deeply–to actually feel the beat. 

✨ Reflection Questions

🔹 What have I been longing to experience—but keep putting off?
🔹 Am I in a season of momentum, or a season of rest?
🔹 Where am I trying to force clarity, instead of waiting for it to arrive?
🔹 How do I know when I’m in rhythm with myself—and what throws me out of sync?
🔹 What cam I willing to try without needing it to be permanent?

📍 Navigating This Energy with Awareness

If this week’s energy feels big—it is. You’re not imagining it. With two full channels activated in the collective, there’s a lot moving under the surface. But you don’t need to fix it, chase it, or even name it right away.

This is the Human Design experiment in real time. It’s the part where we observe, respond, and remember: it’s okay not to have it all figured out.

Your Strategy and Authority are your dance partners. Let them lead.

And if nothing else, let this be your permission slip to be in process. To try something. To change your mind. To sit still. To come back to your rhythm, your timing, your truth.
